    Splitting those two road games is not bad in this league. Would have been nice to take both but it didn't happen.

    We shouldn't have been fouling them that much to begin with.

    The refs did not call any fouls on AM when Florida legitimately drove to the basket: ie on the Kugel dunk, Samuel play around the rim, etc.

    However, the Florida players did not attack the basket enough, give up their bodies on physcal contact while drawing a foul from a defender.

    It’s infuriating that Golden doesn’t force our inside out game, and allows them to slow the game down with a lead.

    Our guards will forget our bigs unless it’s forced.

    Golden can’t just let these games play out like they do.

    It's about how the lead dwindled. They made no adjustments and failed to execute down the stretch, long before the final possession. Just don't want to see the team fall into a lull and end up out of the NCAA tournament picture.

    Sure but we both saw some of the fouls that shouldn't have been called on us.....some of the fouls that should have been called on them and weren't.....and lastly.......they knew how to draw the fouls no matter what we did.....they had the strategy to do that and we didn't. And it worked for them......

    This is what's crazy. I get sports are emotional. With that said, let's be a bit rational. If we said 1-1 in these away games, everyone here would take that outcome a week ago.

    I wanted to win as well. We have plenty of chances to get some more wins. Win against Auburn and we're right back on track.

    26 points in a half with our depth is unforgivable.

    Every time we play at college station. Rough bumping hacking basketball, refs call all the outs heavy on Florida, Buzz controls the refs and plays the criminal. I thought he would at least sit him one game to learn some life lessons, but this is the SEC west, every year.

    Good call. I didn't realize we had a week off. That's huge for us.

    Good to see you finally realize why there was such a disparity in fouls
