Freshmen Again Were The Reason We Won Today and....

Saved Andrew's *** in the process. Had we lost, Andrew would have been forever remembered for blowing that easy layup with about 15 seconds left in the second half which would have made it a 4 point game.

Ulis and Lyles hit HUGE shots and free throws in both overtimes. Booker kept us in the game with his hot hand. And Towns played well even though nobody realizes it with 9 & 9.

That said, the problems have to get worked out or we are losing multiple games. We have barely escaped against 2 of the SEC's worst.

Lastly, I personally was wrong in saying we were going to lose early in the game. I'm thrilled to be wrong on that.

1. No he wouldn't. He will be remembered for what he does in the NCAA Tourney, the only games that matter for this team.
2. Johnson also hit two big FTS and made a nice shot in the OT for us.
3. These are not two of the SEC's worst...that would be MSU, Auburn, Missouri, UT. These teams are middle of the pick type teams, still no excuse to have so much trouble with them.
4. Yes, you were. Maybe not make such rash posts during a game next time.
5. We definitely need to play with more energy, hit layups, finish, stop jacking up so many 3's, etc. The offense has a lot of work to do still, and the D was very inconsistent today. To be fair, they did play pretty well in 2nd half and OT compared to the first half...for the most part. I would also note we struggled to win at Auburn and at UT in our first two road games in the 2011/2012 season. We were able to beat Auburn by 15, but anyone who watched that game knows it was a close run thing until the last few minutes. UT game we won by 3....but we learned from it. Will this team?
