MBB Game 21: @ Pitt - Wednesday - 7 pm - ACCN

[thatguy2016]

If you told me we would shoot 50% from the field, only have 7 turnovers and make 10 3s I would have bet a lot that we would have won...

and we held Pitt to 48% shooting from 2, which is well below their average (except...they shot 49% from 3)

College BB is a cruel game. Deacs come back fall short but we will rebound.

I look down on Les for having anything to do with Cam fucking Lemons.

 

[MrBojangles]

However, if I told you that 3 of their players not named Burton would make 15 (or was it 16?) three pointers between them and that we went would miss 4 out of 5 FTs in the last 2 minutes, I would have guessed that we lost.

State must win

 

[SkyDivingDeacon]

Wow, 99 points from 3 over the last two games. That is…woof.

 

[CreamyGoodness]

Gotta finish regular season no worse than 7-3. That'll put us 13-7 going into ACCT. We would most likely have to win 2 in the ACCT at that point to feel OK about things.

State must win

Tonight was a must-win

 

[Bones McKinney]

Hoping for a high seed and deep run in the NIT. That's a reasonable goal and would be a good springboard to next year.

Rinse and repeat

Tonight was a must-win

That makes State a must, MUST win

 

[deacdixieboy]

Rinse and repeat

We didn’t really have a deep NIT run last year given how small the field is. You gotta make it to the final 4 at least.

 

[SkyDivingDeacon]

I don’t think tonight was a must-win. I think coming into tonight we needed to go 2-1. Duke is very beatable. We win at Cameron and don’t shit the bed against State and we are still in decent shape. If we go 1-2, I agree with Creamy…going to have to win at least six (if not seven) of our next eight and not lose in the first round of the ACCT. Also rooting like hell for Wisconsin, Clemson and Duke (except for when we play them).

Tonight probably felt like a must-win because frankly, we win that game the majority of the time. If we played them again, Pitt isn’t dropping 18 threes. That’s just absurd.

 

[deacdixieboy]

Anyone else worried that we might fuck this up badly enough to not even make the NIT? The field isn’t that big.

 

[KidA23]

I don’t know about you guys, but I just cannot seriously see @Duke on the schedule and even consider that a possible win.

 

[wfu22fan]

Wfu22 is now Forbes out huh?

He has shortcomings. They are obvious.

 

[Wakeforest22890]

Road games against bubble teams are excellent additions to the resume but have to hold home court to stay in position

Yeah we last won there when I was 7. Co signed

 

[demondeacfreak]

This one is my fault guys. As Hildreth was stepping to the line I told the wife he was my guy. He promptly missed both.

Next year. Lol
