Slawson got a quick hook; Tre off the bench before 17 min mark. Bob must have seen something he didn’t like?

We could have blown this game open already as lazy as Samford is playing, but we getting sloppy on offense

Game shouldn’t be close. Sammy shooting 57% mainly due to poor defense. Let them hang around and now they think they can.

Hate we let them end the game on a 12-2 and make it look a lot closer. Prolly cost us a few spots in ratings. CBR said he wish we could close the game better. Peeps are not going to earn PT that way.

CBR was not happy on the postgame the way we finished letting a 24 point lead dwindle to 15. Said regardless of the score if you are wearing that uniform you have to play when you get the chance. Would like to have one more player to count on. Dropped 3 spots in kenpom despite a 15 point road win. That is why it was important to keep it above 20 points.

Agree with the hc. The “garbage” minutes should at least matter to the guys ok the floor. Justify the coach’s decision to let you play; especially when Mounce was a basket or two from a new career high.

Not sure about the ratings drop. I looked before the game and seem to remember that we were ranked #69 in Pomeroy's rankings, which is actually lower than the #68 we are right now (10:48 PM.) Those rankings are fluid, of course, and could be different by tomorrow. There are still 17 games that haven't finished yet tonight.
