I would love to have had Fran (a noted ref apologist) calling this game. I'm not even sure he could defend this.

If we lose this game, we can blame our performance at the free-throw line as much as anything.

We had a chance to calm this thing down from the foul line and refused to.

hope i'm wrong. we just seem to crumble the last ten minutes of every competitive league game this year...and we have zero closers on this team.
Every league game has been competitive and we've won 4 of them. This makes no sense.

k state, texas, and whoever that other loss was we had every opportunity to take the bull by the horns and win by ten and we crumbled. byu, UCF weren't competitive - we were clearly the better team. even the win against ok state we just wanted to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

what are you talking about
