Honestly, 6-3 is what I expected | |
I'm as disappointed to see us get our a$$ kicked by the dark side as anyone, but at the risk of sounding pretentious, I'm not too surprised and I thought this would be our record at this time of the year. I didn't expect us to beat Minnesota on the road but I didn't also didn't expect to lose to Drake in Hilton either. However, I would take 6-3 with this kind of team anytime.
Turnovers, turnovers, turnovers.....that and lack of defense tonight are what killed us. I know Marsden doesn't fill up a stat sheet much, but I don't think it's just coincidence that we're 0-3 with him out of the lineup. I think he is our best interior defensive player and might be the most fundamentally sound too. I hope he gets well soon.
I want to see Corey McIntosh do well, but right now I'm not sure I know what he brings to the team. I would like to see Dunson start against Savannah State. Next Saturday against Bradley will be a huge game for this team and program. Win, and we're back on track confidence wise and improvement wise. Lose, and it will take us just that much longer to get to were we want to be. For me, this season is all about improvement from game to game. The season is still young.
