NIT or bust.

Yep. It’s annoying to hear people keep saying the dukes loss Wasnt a bad loss for us. Well they’re right, it wasn’t at the time, but it’ll end up as one.  Not we have 2

Well the one thing to worry about was a hangover from the Dayton loss. By the looks of our starters I'd say they were shite faced (17 points). No way to paint this but as a bad loss. Davidson was ready to play their game and the Bills were not. Back to the drawing board.

One thing being overlooked is that Davidson's losses were not as bad as they seem.  Wake and Vandy were bad losses. Most of the rest of them were not.  Lost in A10 to Dukes, Rhody and Richmond.  Lost to Auburn, Temple, Marquette.  Those 6 losses are not really bad.  Charlotte is a toss up, winning record.    If we played that schedule, may have more losses..

 

However, its still  win at Dayton and pretty much every other game or its over.

Yuri's 2nd foul was the play of the game.  Got down too much early and guys were playing catch up the rest of the game.  Both calls were BS but it just goes to show we have almost no margin for error on the road.  He's the only guy we have who can drive and dish against a packed defense.

Either Thatch's defense or Jimerson's offense could have tipped the scales in our favor.  Take your pick. 

I'm rooting for Dayton and VCU to run the table, except for when they play us.

Look at the difference in fouls and free throws.  Nice game zebras

Goodwin & French combined for 12 points on 6-20 shooting. 

Their highs are so high and their lows are so low imho

You actually got good minutes from Weaver AND Perkins and you lose. That is just brutal.

This isn’t true for Goodwin. Before tonight he’s been > 11 points every game but tonight and Eastern Washington and has only scored more than 20 like 3 times. He’s been arguably one of the most consistent players we’ve ever had. 

 

French for sure has been a lot more volatile.

Yep, Weaver and Perkins combined to shoot 10-19 from 3, rest of the team, 0-7, pretty much how Davidson drew it up, limit Goodwin & French and takes our chances that the rest of the crew can't do enough to beat us.

One other thing: Carter Chapley noted this in his last article, but Goodwin has a foul issue. 4 fouls again. 

The only game it hurt was the Dayton game and he had to foul at the end of regulation to get the ball back. He has missed few minutes because of fouls

McKillip showed how to defend the Bills. Pack the middle,  don’t let French or Goodwin get to the rim. In spite of Weavers good game we don’t have enough outside shooting to open the middle. Ford’s options are obviously limited but I think I would try the pressing/ trapping game. The best run we had tonight came off turnovers. Our options are limited.

Season isn’t over... hopefully steal an NIT bid 

Non sequitur. NIT means season over.  No learning opportunities.  No teachable moments.  Failure.  Losing.  Just win, baby.  Anyone in that locker room who wants to hear anything about the NIT needs to clean out their locker.
