Just finished watching the game on tape. I got excited for most of the game. Great game to watch.
I give Les props for preparing his team to play last night.
Missouri St. is a very good 3-pt. shooting team. We contested a lot of those, and they went in.
Weems - deja vu from last year's game in Springfield.
I'm just encouraged by the toughness we showed tonight. Good contributions by most everyone. We played hard, gutsy basketball for about the whole game, which we couldn't say too many times last season. Pretty good shot selection tonight.
I still am hopeful about WL and DSE, though they had some misses toward the last 2 minutes that could have gotten us a chance to win.
AW probably had the worst last 5 minutes of a game this year, but he'll be back!
Not the best ending, but we didn't have anything to lose. And the score was not indicitive of how close it was up until the last 35 seconds. It's important we win our next 2 at home to keep the mo going.
Dodie was a monster tonight! He may give us a chance in St. Louis if he continues to play like this.
Comparing last year's game vs. Mo. State at their place, this was a big difference...except for not containing Weems again. Overall, a great effort by the Braves. For once this year I'll say, if we had either Sammy or Taylor, the outcome may have been different. Not an excuse - just putting into perspective how well we hung in there without 2 major starters.
