So many takeaways from this game. Bowers needs to realize that his FT shooting can cost games.

We never should be comfortable with ANY lead. We need to always try to build the lead.

We need to always think about shot selection. Canty and Dunans put up some bone headed shots that cost us late.

This team man...

We're obviously better, but our lackadaisical play and heavy reliance on the 3-ball are huge causes for concern.

My legs are little wobbly after that. Need New Williams out there big time. We get too tired without two point guards.

Seriously though my guess was as lucky as us not blowing that game.

Either way that game will be a learning lesson for our team. Glad we get to learn from a W and not an L. OP has been updated.

All in all, I'll take the win. Onto the next one in Nashville at Bridgestone Arena against MTSU on 12/12. Going to try and make it up there but I doubt I'll want to do downtown Nashville on crutches and a full leg brace.

This fact, courtesy of the AuburnMBB Twitter, certainly resonates...

Has anyone heard of how to buy tickets to the MTSU game? I'm assuming they'll announce something in the coming days.

That's awfully sad and pathetic but how many nonconference road games have we played in that span?

They have been on sale for a while. Call AU or MTSU ticket office or Bridgestone Center.

On a related note MTSU is playing VCU now on Fox Sports Net for anyone who wants to do some early scouting.

Canty needs to let up on the step back 3. He needs to drive create assist and get to the line.

Ben Simmons put up 43 for LSU tonight but allowed North Florida to shoot damn near 60% from 3. I love college basketball
