Wow, finally caught them, then gave the lead back. How is it that we beat the Lobos in the Pit but are letting McNeese State control the game in the Don?
McNeese St @ Utep MBB

I know. I don’t dislike him like a few on here, though. I may not always agree with him, but…
I was hoping that we would come out with a sense of purpose after being embarrassed in the 1st half. After tying the score we look just as bad
Yeah, agree. This is where we see how valuable Verhoeven is…cuz it’s not always exactly evident how much we need him.
All this time Golding has pounded defense into his guys. Haven’t seen such a matador defense by a Miner team in all my years
Oh, I always have the glasses on. I just may realize they’re not always working.🤓
I wasn't able to watch the UNM game live, but did watch the stream this afternoon. Hard to believe that this is the same team.
What in the hell is Onyema doing shooting a 3?
We really aren't running any offense, and have no interior game. It will come down down to making threes.
1,000 for Boum. Congrats!
Meh win for the Miners. At least some newer players got to see some more play time.
There are going to be games like this. Not a good showing, but never felt like we were in danger of losing this one.
Can't tell how good this Miners team is. They played consistently with NMSU through both games, struggle against UCR, beat UNM, but then struggle against McNeese. I don't know what to expect when we hit conference play.
Interesting how few fouls were called. Onyema did some cool stuff. Cudos to Golding for putting him in at the right time. Saterfield overachieved.
New unis, don’t see why Jon said he doesn’t like them but if it’s a one off I can live with it
Overall, close conference games unless we start clicking on offense. Toughest opponent has been UAB historically but we’ll see how the eastern teams match with us

In the Covid era, we can expect more of this. Glad so much our our bench got minutes.
I have to say that I was worried. When we tied it early in the 2nd half and then found ourselves down by 9 again almost immediately thereafter. When it was still a tight game with only a few minutes to go. Fortunately they started missing shots and fouling Boum, not a good combo for them.
On a positive note, I hope that Saterfield convinced Golding that he's worthy of minutes tonight.
Saterfield provided a nice spark in the second half when the offense was struggling to score. Sibley hardly played; could still be flu related.
How can it be for COVID if it was for concussions? Teicher said it at the start of the game
