Swope worries me. Not the misses but the look he is giving off. It’s like he doesn’t give a shit to be there and then hangs his head when he misses. Something big is going on in his head. 5 for 17 from three is NOT acceptable. Lots of rumors down here in his hometown of Newburgh, but won’t get into that.

He will get it going… the spotlight hasn’t been big enough. He might go for 40 in the Big Dance. Keep believing baby

Has anyone looked at who we might want cheer for to lose this weekend, so we can crack the top 25?
Already happened brother. But more help would be Kansas State and UNLV winning today, Wichita tomo. Boise State may jump us if they win tonight

His shot looked fine most of the game, they just rimmed out. It happens. Then with all of that, his little midrange baseline jumper sealed it.

I will say that Missouri State is the one team I'd rather not see in St. Louis.
Yepp. I get their zone was effective today, but a couple things…if we shoot well early, they can’t stay in it and BU is the only other team in the Valley that has that type of length and rebounding needed for an effective zone.

yup, already have had a handful of teams in that 19-25 spot lose this week already. There is no way we aren't top 25 Monday. If we aren't it's an absolute crime beyond comprehension
 
Think Swope was our leading scorer over the final 10 mins. Seem to the only one scoring. Think he had three threes down the stretch.

They also made us run practice in a different gym...nice try fellas.
That doesn't sound right at all. Might of had something to do with our shooting, especially starting out. Seems like that would be a NCAA or MVC rule that the opposing teams gets a practice in the gym.
 
Looking back over the comments and I literally said most of the same things during the game. Huge road W when we couldn't throw it in the ocean. The decision to go zone was huge! Couple things - Swope is best when he just fires away and doesn't think about it. I know how nervous I get not wanting us to lose, imagine what these guys are feeling and I think that's a little of what's is happening with our shots. Enjoy the next couple days as we get ranked for the first time in 45 years!

Swope plays so hard and had 38 minutes today. He always guards a man bigger than him and he's not afraid to make a play. I think he''ll be alright. Robbie actually had a rough shooting game but had several nice assists. We never lose our composure, that's what I love about this team.
 
Couple other things - as Hans said, we don't lose our composure. Other thing, I have so much confidence in the adjustments that Coach makes at halftime. I've been prepared since Wednesday to possibly lose this game. Actually winning and I'm on cloud 9. How about freaking Ryan Conwell? Dude came up big again.
