Re: Southern Utah

They shot 59.2 percent from the floor for the game. That just can't happen.

Re: Southern Utah

we should of fouled right after that 3 from garret.... its hard to win that game in OT because of the depth with foul trouble and without Moss but in regulation we should of won it...

Re: Southern Utah

Nagy was much more upbeat than I expected. Hopefully that will carry over to the team so they come out strong against NDSU. He said a couple times that this team is so close.

Palarca with a blocked shot. Never thought I would see that stat.

Re: Southern Utah

I still think we'll make the conference tourney if we continue to hold serve at home. We have to give NDSU a competitive game though.

I think these guys will give NDSU all they can handle.

Re: Southern Utah

Nagy:
Should have fouled immediately after the throw-in at the end of regulation

First half cost the game, not the second half

Guys off the bench played well, Payton played well

Even tho didn't get a road win, competed well on the road

Team is really beat up, but need the older guys to lead us on to move forward

Foul situation was frustrating, but that is the way it goes

Have to recognize when refs calling it tight and adjust, we didn't, kept putting our hands on them

Have to get emotionally pulled together to be ready for NDSU; hard to come back but I need to help them get ready

Re: Southern Utah

I hope the guys keep their chins up. They are close.

Re: Southern Utah

These last two games are as tough as losses get. Everyone is trying hard just no luck. I agree with the other comments about the fact we just need that extra guy who can get us over the hump. Hopefully we can add him for next year.

Re: Southern Utah

its hard to play good defense when in the first 5 minutes they call touch fouls and put a whole bunch of your team in foul trouble.... Its just hard to do.... They did not play good defense but when you have 2 fouls and they are calling everything on that end of the floor.

Re: Southern Utah

Gotta hold the other team to under 60 percent from the field. Not calling you out because I agree that we have the shooters...difference is that we need stops...man this one hurts bad....we're so close.

No sheit. Gotta have better defense than that. At one point we were 7-14 from the free throw line. Gotta make those and it isn't an overtime game.

Re: Southern Utah

Well, I think the refs should not be discussed as a reason for the loss. SUU has just as much of right to complain about bad calls as we do. What really hurt was the poor free throw shooting in regulation, and the defense that let them hit 60% from the field in regulation. It is difficult to beat any team that hits 60% from the field any time, any place.

EDIT: Not calling you out Sturgis (or anyone else), we just hit enter at the same time.

Re: Southern Utah

Hard to win when your playing five on eight. Four foul outs by the Jacks. Thats a fuing joke and three players on the other team with four and no foul outs? This game needs to be reviewed by the Summit Leagues officials committee and those three should never work a D1 game again. Jacks could have had it but the basketball gods crapped on them again.

Re: Southern Utah

I just hope this road trip doesn't doom the rest of the season. Two tough, tough losses like these are hard to get over.

They came back after a very tough loss on the road and played well. They shot 61% for the first 29 minutes of the game (was in my car at the 11 minute mark in second half when they announced the shooting percentage). Hard to win in overtime when AC, Griffan, Clint, and Tivis all foul out.

Re: Southern Utah

How can a team play on the road 5 on 8? We have the shooters but not much they can do when the refs foul them out.

Gotta hold the other team to under 60 percent from the field. Not calling you out because I agree that we have the shooters...difference is that we need stops...man this one hurts bad....we're so close.

Re: Southern Utah

Once again, I find myself speechless.
