Huge first 5 minutes. Huge.

I am honestly amazed we are this close.
1. Petty has not loosened D up
2. We have an opponent who has gotten hot behind the arc
3. The refs are allowing the defense to use their hands out front.
Sexton can't drive easily because of hand checks, no real 3 threat so far and they are hot behind the line.
Overall defense, grit and mental toughness to withstand the small runs Nova has had has kept us in it.
Not sure if that formula will hold up for 40 minutes...best solution is for someone to loosen up Nova's D so we have a chance.

The last 2 weeks are the gametape Avery needs to show teams on how to battle, grind and play aggressive. Every year. This is the standard. We're not doing crazy amazing things, we're just working our arse off and competing every possession.
This is what your standard is.

No doubt we can play with these guys. Need to clean some things up and hit our free throws.

Games like this is what makes you pissed off about:
UCF
Ole Miss
Texas
@Auburn
@Miss St
@Vandy
Florida
@UGA
Lack of effort.

I agree.
Just imagine where we will be at the end of the game if just 1 of the 3 things I listed working against us swings to our favor this half?

I think Petty has been guarding him more often than Ingram.
He was when he hit those 3 straight ones.

My optimistic hope is that this helps this core group realize how you have to play consistently and it carries forward.

No other player has scored in 13+ minutes for Nova and they are up by 5.
That's fricking crazy.

Great halftime talk, Avery.

So dumb. Just so dumb. It's one thing to get beat, it's another to play with the IQ of a little league team.
