Where is everybody tonight...this game thread has 14 posts

My guess is post uofL hangover. I was not excited for the game tonight. Watched other stuff on TV and had my small laptop beside me with sound off till half time.

This is a game that you cannot find anything out about this team. Not much reason to watch intently. Tuesday night is our next test to see if we have improved any at all.

Type of game you expect after a loss, hope it carries over into next week.

I saw a big improvement on perimeter defense. Offense looked good but hard to tell if there was any improvement there due to the caliber of our competition.
next game will tell us a lot

Oweh messed up cutting his hair, should have left well enough alone.

It makes me sad to say it, but we don't look anywhere as good as I thought we would. With the exception of 2 or maybe 3 players, everyone else is under performing. Including Pope.

I have shifted my expectations from preseason to now. Still think they can accomplish some great things, but not the dominate team we heard about all summer. I think MSU game will tell us a lot.

This team has a long way to go. Aberdeen and Chandler are playing hard, hard. Noah will be an asset in certain situations. Moreno is a pleasant surprise. Johnson really us a true frosh and doing true frosh things. MO is a real stud....bargain.
Jelavic shows promise and is working. Cam Williams seems to have shifted gears and could be a big boost.

Oweh and Garrison....so far massively disappointing. I hope whatever is dragging on them they get to dump.

Lowe....I really don't know. Truth is he had a ton to live up to.

Gonna be a strange year.
And perhaps most odd...Mark Pope seems both croptic and miserable at the same time....which is an unpleasant change from last year.
