Late-game losses to Ohio and Akron looming large
Posted: Wed Feb 09, 2005 10:01 pm
As we've slipped into a giant clump of teams in the MAC race, those losses to Ohio and Akron in the closing minutes are really are eating away at me. We've won a couple close games like at CMU and vs. Toledo at home, but the losses to OU and Akron evened those games out. I think we can still secure a MAC Tournament first round game, but we've just got to start taking care of the basketball already – our turnovers are killing us. I know dwelling on losses does no good whatsoever, and games like the losses to Ohio and Akron are behind us now. But it's how we lost, not so much that we lost, that still stings with me. We let late leads slip away and if that didn't happen, we could be sitting pretty at 9-3 instead of being 7-5 with a trip to Kent State up next. We've certainly got our work cut out for us the rest of the way, I just hope we respond.
