I took a wrong turn, in Florida playing golf instead of NC. Maybe a right turn, missed a stinker it appears.
Saw Alabama play on cable 1st game, they had to play a lot better, especially on D. They were dead yesterday. Or else we really really shot badly.
Either way this result sucks.
OTOH, I see our traditional BSU spirit showed here. After the first bad game, give up! Gripe a lot first like you deserve the best, then dump on the team.
Give me all the excuses about 15 years of futility, excusing your negativity, but c'mon guys, the season is hardly over, and the team not defined by it's bad game here.

Definitely a major step back today. Very disappointing.

edit:.....as I sit here sipping my plastic cup of beer, I can only shake my head as I realize that it was NEXT year they were talking about. [ You have only yourself to blame for your disappointment around your rookie mistake of confusing THIS year with NEXT year. Once next year becomes this year, it's no longer next year....is it?

Come on now you know were are boys but stop it. We all agree that we will be fine in the MAC(we are not sniffing Buffalo) but this was supposed to the I will show you year. The year we are something more than just a bit above average MAC team. Based on these three games and especially this stinker today we are probably a second place MAC team again maybe we sneak into the NIT if the cards fall right for the cards.. Thats all anyone is really saying

There’s playing poorly and then there’s just having no clue, not showing up, and generally being soft. The part after not playing poorly is repetitive with Whitfords teams. Today was a total crap fest. Purdue we collapsed on thf second half. vT we collapsed in the second half. We’ve gotten little from Teague and Moses. (Trey did had a good second half today when it didn’t matter). Hazen looks no where near ready. Walton is Walton. Out of control with some impressive moments. Mallers busts his ass but is limited athletically. We don’t/can’t guard. As usual an athlete team that goes at us will expose us. Ish? Gunn?
Etc etc.

#24 then #16 then an Alabama team that will be in the top 25 in 5 days played both Purdue and Virginia Tech close then ran out of gas,against Alabama. I’m disappointed I’d love to see us upset a ranked team. I’m proud they competed and will be better as the seaso progresses.There is still a chance of a victory on Sunday. Go Cards!

Why do we run out of gas... Alabama and every other team in this tourney played the same days as we did

I thought like most of you we played pretty well vs PU and VT!
But today we were bad!
Only, good takeaway is I felt Trey found his legs and his offense in the second half.
Let’s beat ASU and regroup

No way will Alabama be ranked in the top 25 - they are a team that will IMO finish in the bottom 1/3 of the SEC. We just weren’t up to their intensity and strength levels. But having seen them play both days now, Alabama is not a very skilled basketball team. The noticeable thing is how well they were prepared to play us when they were prob expecting before yesterday to take on VT. They hounded Mallers & Persons precluding 3-pt looks, they allowed Walton & Moses lots of cushion to shoot 10-12 footers, they got the ball to whoever Nehls guarded every single possession he was in the game, etc. It’s now the recipe to expect every opponent.

Alabama and every other team in this tourney played the same days as we did Have to agree there, play by play on espn shows fast Alabama start, slow start by cards and very poor shooting. Forget fatigue.
