This is a bad time to have a game like this. Hopefully we can use this game to motivate us moving forward.
We looked tired, or uninterested. LU consistently got to balls first.
Maybe don't play 5 straight road games all the way across country?
Liberty earned that win, we were outplayed.
those refs were not great at all but did not cost us the game; our lack of tenacity did.
we repeatedly let a single ball handler dribble over half the field with no challenge. They entered the circle barely challenged often.
conversely Liberty maintained near perfect defensive shape throughout and conceded nothing. we got impatient at times with their defense with wild pass attempts and playing out of control.
the weather clearly affected UNC with balls hopping off of our pass receptions but Liberty seemed unphased. It was a return to our many unforced turnovers earlier in the year. I hope that was just weather.
speaking of weather, that satellite feed was awful. As much as people complain at times about ACCN at some away games, it is consistently way better than what we see on ESPN+

Prophetic in the accuracy of this prognostication
Part of it is no more redshirts, we should see more freshmen playing going forward, although I am not sure we had a choice this year starting out: all hands on deck.
Was it raining today at Liberty. How many road games did we play in a row. If it was five and it was raining then this is a good reason why we did not come out like we should have. Not making any excuses but the weather does have an affect. We will just have to bounce back.
Not a great situation, but I do think our odds of either winning out or winning the ACCT are pretty high.
ACCT is at home too, I believe.
Just keep winning.

Unknown. The message certainly alludes to some significant struggles related to sport, but I have no idea what that was.
This is huge. significantly increases the chances our three stars will get the entire season before another motion or the final ruling bars them from playing.
The actual court case is not yet on any docket, so this effectively remains a battle of preliminary motions which are going our way.
I assume the NCAA's next recourse is appealing this stay ruling to the Indiana Supreme court.
IMO, there are a number of reasons to not only defeat BC tonight, but to make a statement in doing so.
Please add to the list.
Spit out the feathers from the consumed humble pie in front of the years of former players and teammates, and fans in the friendly confines of KSS and Coach Shelton herself, ( will baby Hutchinson be there ? ) and a welcome back, if you will, to Melea Weber and Ava Meehan.

If we are able to pour it on BC, we will. Because RPI mostly determines NCAA selection and RPI takes into account margin of victory.
what an awful call. that corner should have been overturned and we now lose our referral.
I usually like this crew too, but Erin is really letting them have it today
our insertion and settle is so slow. you don't even need a fast flyer to neutralize. need more deception on our APC plays. really miss Floor from last year.
This is BS. We are in our own stadium and we cannot get any calls to go our way.
She must have heard me. Great pass to Ella! What a pass by Heck to find Reese right before that goal. Heels up 2-0
2-0 Heels!
