Would’ve been nice to cut the lead to 10 going into the half. Agnew with a wide open look. Back to his usual self after a sizzling night from behind the arc on Saturday.
UTEP @ MTSU
- Thread starter MineroFanatico
- Start date
We had a slow start in conference play, but since then have won 8 of 10. You would have thought that playing them now would be to our advantage vice playing them then. Of course, they're on a nice streak of their own. Tonight they're hot, we're not, and we can't get any stops. So far it's not our night. Let's hope that we can turn things around in the 2nd half.
Yep. If we were shooting just our usual 36% from behind the arc as a team, the lead would be half of what it is now.
I don’t get how we step out of bounds, or are standing out of bounds when we receive the pass, so damn often. That used to not be a thing. I see it in cbb all the time now. Attention to detail?!?
Terrible camera work. For like the 5th time the camera doesn’t pan over enough to see the end result.
A couple of plays after making a great block Tydus fails to finish at the rim - AGAIN
He is the main culprit, however Boum has had more than a few as well.
Yep. White just had one as well. Really bad turnovers when you are trying to make a run. Down 15 again.
Observations:
* MTSU can shoot.
* No need for our center to guard at the top of the key. This just leads to problems on the pick and roll. Sag back unless their 6’10 center is a 3 point threat.
* Bienemy needs to be a more consistent scoring threat.
* Three road games in five days is wrong.
* Agnew is our R. Westbrook

Bieniemy, Saterfield and Agnew are a combined 3 for 17 tonight. We can overcome one of those guys having an off night, sometimes two of those guys, but 3 of them…

agree 100%

Yep. Just as important, we can't give up 43 in a half and expect to win.
Well if we hit 50% from 3 we would be headed to overtime!
Our perimeter D has been exposed now twice in the past 4 games. Let see what Golding says about this

We just got destroyed on the glass and MTSU is not an especially big team. 40-26. 8 of those offensive for MT. We did a lot of ball watching tonight. Definitely a lack of willingness to get in the paint and bang for rebounds.
We're most likely going to see them again in Frisco with the way the bracket is shaping up.
Before tonight I liked the idea of that matchup. I think MTSU has taken over LaTech and is top 3, maybe even top 2 in CUSA. Well coached team that works hard on the court.
Gotta admit, their D was better than ours. But their road trip was easier than ours with FIU and a fading FAU.
We didn't have a lot of pep.
That's why I wondered how the game would have gone if played when scheduled. They still hadn't found themselves and weren't playing like a top team in the league. Also a big deal was playing our first 3 game road trip in 5 days since 1984.
