Maybe, but this team is playing on borrowed time. They play like they have no backbone and will fold faster than the 00-01 teams did if trouble happens.

I hope I am wrong. Believe me, I do.

I know its getting old, but i've actually learned not to freak out like the rest of you. We don't play our best against crappy teams and still win by around 10 most of the time which clearly isn't okay with you.

That is nothing to get comfortable with... you keep bad teams in the tournament close, you lose. It can't be like that. Once again, if you actually looked beyond that, you'd be pissed too.

We are poorly coached and soft. We will likely find it impossible to win big games again, but our conference sucks. Don't let all the preseason bs fool you.

I just think its funny how many of you are ready to write the rest of the season off because of 1 bad half of basketball...oh..and we're still winning.

1 bad Half?????? Have you watched this season. See DePaul, MTSU, etc. This team is sloppy, wait until we play a good team like Kansas. Then the coaching will show

Those saying that this team is "fine" and we need to "calm down" don't have a clue about what they are talking about. This team is definitely not fine, and I'll be surprised if we don't get shredded by Kansas and UK.

Lol.

I look at DePaul and MTSU and see W, and W. Yes we are sloppy but we still get it done..and besides, its early in the season. And we have played a good team.

Our next 5 games will be telling. USC, Memphis, Charlotte who killed Louisville and Kansas of course. If we can win 3 of those then we should be happy - it's possible.

Well all I meant is that we will be fine tonight, no telling about the rest of the season. BP's teams have always been kinda unpredictable when it comes to how well they play.

I'm in shock. We are in our 9th game with a vetern squad, ranked 8th in the country and have a 1 point lead over a Wyoming team that UNCA would probably beat. To set and watch this team settle for 3's when they are shooting so poorly shows Bruce Pearl has no real control over this team or any idea what a half court offense is. Your down by ten and have McBee in there doing the only thing he knows how to do (brick 3's) and then Mr. Automatic, Tyler Smith, is trying his best to chip the rim when he shoots freethrows.

Negative economy, negative news, negative people in Vegas, and now a negative Volnation.

Serenity NOW!

Very dissappointing guard play in the first half. Right now NOT looking like a number 8. Hope Pearl jacks them up for the 2nd half.

And I don't know what that lovefest with Mcbee was, he consistently misses wide open 3's, and should not be getting significant playing time.
