Heath better have a FT shooting session when they get back to Tampa.

Georgetown missed FTs that helped us, so that's just way it is sometimes. I don't expect much from Famous at the line but our guards do have to shoot better then they did today.

The game thread has enough content about the missed free throws

My eyes are glued to the game when its being played.

This is post-game commiseration.

Famous  2 of 7 (and the key one at the end)

Jones 2 of 4

Crater 1 of 2

Howard 3 of 5

Rivas 2 of 2

12 of 28? OUCH!!!!

Actually, I accidentlly added Mercer's FGs not FTs.

So 10-20

NCAAs will be tough with two losses to another bubble team like ND.  Have to beat MU and UC, neither of which will be easy.  Also, hope we face ND again in NYC.  A win there would balance out these two losses.

Yep. The next two are almost must wins now if we want to go dancing.

ND can't win on the road so their bubble will burst soon enough. USF has to win at Marquette and/or DePaul. They shouldn't have much trouble with Cincy in Tampa. Once again a terrible road team. One more road win and a sweep with home schedule will get USF into the tournament.

Just looked at the series history against Notre Dame, and except for one game it's been a pretty tough series. Really only one blowout.
