Very low key and calm...accepting almost of the loss. Key points:
1. Not sure players let large "stage" bother them
2. Maybe tried too hard (to make shots)
3. Defense was really good in first half
4. Defense had some down plays in the second half
5. Porter is a very good player; otherwise the rest of GT played poorly...like we did
6. BT did not have a good game
And then there was this: "No difference; just like other games we have lost this year: WE COULD NOT MAKE A BASKET"
MY TAKE:
We have a team that is 22-5 and is 10-4 in BE with by end of year will have had the most difficult schedule in the BE (GT twice-Louisville twice) and a potential nightmare ending to regular season against very tough opponents. HOWEVER, WINNING % IS OVER 80%--any qualms with that???
So we are going into the Big Dance with an 8 out of 10 chance of winning every game as long as we shoot the ball just OKAY--I will say that again: IF we shoot the ball okay our defense will carry 'Cuse far...I will take those odds.
