We stepped on ourselves

[ccintn]

when we lost to Missouri, in more ways than one.
how did it happen?

Well digging ourselves a 44-28 hole at the half didn’t help. Don’t think Primo took a shot. Seems like we turned it over too much. Their two guards bullied us in the first half. The game wasn’t as close as it ended up and we still had a chance to tie/win. Herb got the ball the last 3 possessions with the chance to lead/tie and we got 0. Somehow we killed them with the press during that huge run. We didn’t really deserve to win it and probably didn’t need to. We’ve won some fairly close ones too. I’d rather lose one or two now, rather than later.

Missouri is a top 25 team at home and they played better. Losing to OU without 2 of their starters, one being their leading scorer was slightly more damaging.

Missouri has been without Tillman the last 2 games. We would have beat them w/o Tillman.

Missouri Bullied Bama around on both ends of the court and took the ball to the basket and made shots. Bama did not mix it up very well with the Tigers and in my opinion we have got to become more physical on the boards. Oklahoma pushed us around also.
If we going to advance in the Tournaments we got to become more physical and we have to finish at the basket.

Early start and sleep walking, didn't respond to physicality

Bama was 12-21 from Free Throw line.... that will not win
Bama was 33% from Field and again that doesn't win either, unless you make a ton of 3's which they were decent (9-25) but you have to finish at the rim

Not finishing at the rim makes me scream at the TV................

If I'm correct both loses against OU and Mizzou were 11:00 starts. We don't seem to "get going" until around noon. I blame the start times.
