St. Louis was picked to finish 2nd in the A-10 behind VCU. They have WAY more experienced players than we do, and yet we took them to the wire. Throw Keith Carter into the mix, and there's no doubt we win this game. Oh well...
To the SLU fan or fans who think they should have blown us out, let me give you a little reality check. Your team was completely dominated on the boards tonight. Your 2 6-11 white stiff centers are terrible. The moppy haired white guy on your team (Barnett?) needs an attitude adjustment. He yelled at other of your players several times, told one of your guys lined up across from him on a free throw to worry about himself when the guy tried to tell him something, cried and rolled his eyes every time he was called for a foul when he was badly beaten off the dribble, and I almost forgot, he's terrible too. Last, but not least, apparently your team didn't get the message that you can't body up and manhandle an opposing player with the ball this year. Some of the fouls your team committed in the first half were downright silly. Oh, and just a suggestion, you might want to publish the rule changes on your message board about blocking vs. charging to educate your fans that were at the game and were obviously clueless every time they moaned and groaned when their heroes were called for blocking. Just trying to help. Good luck this season. We are going to need all the help we can get from your RPI.
I'm a big basketball fan and i know good basketball when i see it and your team is decent... had the Billikens played good basketball this would have been a 10 point win at least... this should have not came down to the last shot we are the superior team and for u to think otherwise is quite ludicrous... Keith Carter is good but he is no savior like you think
