MBB: UC Davis (7-3) at Eastern Washington (4-7) Sat. Dec.17, 1 pm Unfortunately, I don't think you are wrong, Toke. We just haven't found any kind of consistency game to game or even half to half this year. We don't seem to be able to stretch a lead and keep it throughout the whole 40 minutes. We even lost a 29 point lead to Boston University in the final 16 minutes of the second half before winning in OT.
I feel like this team has the makings of a pretty good basketball team but something is missing or just hasn't gelled yet. I can't put my finger on it but something is not clicking. If the coaches don't get it figured out, I think we'll be hard pressed to be in the top half of the Big West.
We can't have a game like this against UCLA, Hawaii and Irvine and expect to have a chance to win. The Bruins will run us out of Pauley Pavilian and Hawaii is always hard to beat in Hawaii. We follow those two games up with our conference opener at home against Irvine who is perhaps the best team in the BW.
We've had 11 games now figure things out but we're still very inconsistent and that doesn't bode well for us in these next 3 very tough games.
I'll be pulling for us but I'm not real confident at the moment...
