We have won the last 3 against teams where we were the underdog with 2 on the road. Now we have a 5 game stretch to close the season where we will probably be favored in all the games except UK. We have proved we can play well when we were the underdog ....how do we handle success. MSU, Arkansa and AU all have a losing record ... I watched UGA vs UF Tuesday night ... and they did not play well in losing to a UF team who still cannot shoot.
I think we will handle the success fine .... this team needs to play with the mentality of the underdog ... can't have a night when we are not playing hard.
Last night Retin and Coleman come up big on offense ... Riley had a bad night shooting but it DID NOT impact how hard he played thus he grabbed 16 of our 29 rebounds. That is a lot of rebounds for anyone but for a small forward ... play hard and contribute what you can.
