Their coach was a little ***** in his post game interview, saying someone besides the players decided the game down the stretch. English actually handled it better, saying one technical foul didn't decide the game.

We really need Burton to get out of his funk...MT, Niang and Nader are all playing their best bball..if we can get a guy off bench to step up we can go far. Burton has some really bad turnovers lately

Burton looked tight. Was his first NCAA game. He gave Ashton a gift pass and he was tight and couldn't get the ball out of his hands.

Where can one find the post game pressers?

Never mind, found it.

Prohm said he talked to Burton about shot selection a few games back. Burton was pulled right after a bad three miss. Prohm held him accountable. We are going to need Burton even more next year but he needs to follow coach's direction.

I remember the three pointer you're talking about, the one that barely drew iron. An open three for Deonte is a good shot, though, since he's shooting 47 percent beyond the arc. I don't know why Prohm would be upset with that shot. Maybe he thinks Deonte is more useful trying to drive the lane and get fouled.

I didn't really appreciate at the time how awesome & hilarious Jameel's two back-to-back blocks on that Iona guy were. He put that guy down HARD.

This team is playing its best bball right now I think and Prohm has done a great job in making it so..he could have lost this team a month ago with all that was going on plus losing Naz but he did all the right things. There aren't many teams that can slow this offense IMO...when we have 3 or more guys hitting shots we are really really hard to guard. The key is keeping Niang and McKay in the game and out of foul trouble. I can see us playing a good amount of zone Saturday. Rebounding will be key IMO. I think ALR guards are a little to Atheltic for us to stay in a man most of game. Maybe I'm wrong...but I can see us rolling dice on them hitting threes to stay with us. Rarely do u see a 12-13 seed pull off the upset..especially in 2Ot...in high altitude..and come back next game and do it again vs a high seed. Rarely. Not saying it can't happen but I really like our chances.

Going to need McKay to be ready to sit back and block some shots from those UALR guards that like to drive the hoop.

I've been busy all day...did we ever find out what English said to our bench/Prohm? It was pretty weird.

English claiming he was jawing back and forth with a player. May have been, but since they gave double T's earlier for that, you have to know better.

Even if you are jawing with a player all game, you can't be dumb enough to be saying crap right in front of the scorer's tables where all the fans and officials can hear.

And whar GTO? Do we need to put out an APB? Have been waiting for a poll since the game ended.
