Rebounds = effort. UAB just wants it more right now. They are playing like an experienced team and ISU is playing the opposite.

So Fred doesn't have his guys ready and can't motivate them to play hard vs an inferior opponent. Seen this before. What lesson will we have after this game. Hopefully will be playing Sat.

Hogue having one of those games where his effort it spent more on complaining about calls than attacking the rim. He loves playing victim but he needs to play smart.

Just need one run to survive and advance.

Agree - and this happens to a lot of teams - but how is it so hard for our guys to give 40 minutes of effort for 1 game? The potential of this team is SO HIGH. Final Four possibly. Why chance it by giving 50% in any game?

UAB is getting rebounds because they're physically better.

Right now the experts have a very good chance of looking awfully silly.
