Not even remotely close to itInSU is already playing like's an open gym.
They played the first half like they were playing against an open gym defense . . . aka no defense at all.Not even remotely close to it
I agree it's Miller time, but do they still make Schmidt beer?It's it Miller and Schmitt time yet

What’s the reason behind coming out so dang slow? I don’t understand that at all, mind blowingSo they made it interesting . . . but interesting ain't worth the price of admission if you don't like the beginning or ending. I'd love to say they'd played hard and just lost to a better team . . . but, no, they were AWOL in the first half and then didn't begin to really play hard way too late in the 2nd half. Seems like this will be the narrative for season: slow or sluggish start digs a deep hole, gemefully tried to climb back out but just couldn't do it.
Wish I had an answer . . . actually, wish Pedon had an answer.What’s the reason behind coming out so dang slow? I don’t understand that at all, mind blowing
This is kinda my main takeaway basically all year - not each and every game, but starting with WIU. The Birds have gone down to several "inferior" teams, because they haven't played together, haven't hustled, haven't played smart - what else do you have? Plain old sad. Down the stretch, the other team goes to the line, misses a FT, and we let them come away with the board and get another possession. The other team misses a shot down the stretch when we need a board and they out hustle us and get the board. Or, we get the board but somebody drives into a 1 on 4 fast break, 4 men between our guy and the basket, and tosses up some gar-bage.So they made it interesting . . . but interesting ain't worth the price of admission if you don't like the beginning or ending.
