wgstl Posted November 19, 2022 Author Share Posted November 19, 2022 Time for my overreactions. forrester is just, ok. Maybe just good enough for the A10 level bigs. But ya he’s not nearly as good linssen parker needs reduced minutes. JUCOs take a while, and he’s far from ready. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was the first really big basketball game at Texas' new arena and it was rocking. Texas is #11 in the country. You can lay an egg and then turn around and have a good season. I'm just not optimistic we will. Top 4 A10 and just outside the bubble for the tournament. Hope I'm wrong. It’s gonna be 2019 all over again. Win at Barclay or back to the NIT. This beat down will be frowned upon especially if MD gets run over in the B10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old guy Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 We may still be a good team but we surely had a blowout today. Perkins did revive in the second half. Thatch got hurt. Terrible game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do not think that Majerus’s last season or the 2 following seasons under that coach did a Billikens team lose this bad. Losing for me is not the issue not being in the game is. I will sing a different tune tomorrow if we win tomorrow and they better get it done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fraz Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 Need to come out strong tomorrow. Maybe today was a fluke. If we don’t we’re 3-2 with a trip to Auburn likely 3-3. Not great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t think we will have a chance to get into the top 25 during before the tournament. I remember how hard it was to get ranked for Billikens in the really good 3 year run we had. Hell Majerus’s last team managed to get ranked for a week in November and could never get back into the rankings after a bad loss to Loyola Marymount. Programs like SLU have to do something incredible to get in the rankings or have continued success over multiple seasons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just never see a coherent plan. I saw some traces of 1 vs Memphis they executed some beautiful plays. When I heard MD plays good team D and likes to press, I knew we were in for it today. Even with the best PG in the land pressing us causes problems. I think it's not bad coaching just mediocre coaching. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again my upsetness today is our effort. Just terrible. We won't even be a top 4 conf team if they don't ramp up the effort. We supposedly have all this depth. Use it. Nothing motivates an athlete more that having to avoid the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gobillsgo Posted November 19, 2022 Share Posted November 19, 2022 I don’t know if I can ever remember a Bills team that just rolled over and took it as much as today. And Travis really picked a hell of a spot to get his Tech. How about earlier when it might actually make a difference? Oh well, everything today was bad. Coaches, players, refs. All awful. Terrible terrible effort. Don’t want to see that again ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slu let the dogs out?

It’s not that we lost. We weren’t going to run the table this year obviously. We just lost by 30 on a neutral court to a Big Ten team projected to finish towards the bottom of their league. I’d just hate to find ourselves, once again, on the bubble come selection Sunday and this is the game that flashes before the eyes of the committee. Kidding of course. It will be our annual 2 bad A10 losses that seal our fate. Gotta take care of business tomorrow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
