MU - Unreal tough luck at the end of games. Looks like this season is going to be a repeat of last season. Hard on the heart and blood pressure. Hopefully we get on the other side of these come Big East play, just as we did a few last year.
Many thought we'd get beat at Vandy, or even blown out. Saw enough tonight that is encouraging. A more settled rotation, better offense, better rebounding. We rarely get beat at the Free Throw Attempts game..but somehow Vandy won that battle tonight..despite not being as aggressive in going to the basket..
One year ago today we lost to West Virgina in the final seconds by 1.
It's the "near success unattained" that leaves the most disdainful taste in my mouth.

And St. John's beat them...
...by ten
...at West Viriginia
...and Huggy Bear is pissed
...And WE play them on Saturday.
GREAT.... :)
Dam, I really hate losses like this...so pissed off that we somehow found a way to lose it. Sucks to be a MU fan at the moment...this would of been a huge win as I think Vandy could win the SEC.

Tough luck, my a**.
MU's defense sucked big time. I should have bought new cameras for MU's players for Christmas so they could take nice pics of guys driving uncontested through the lane for layups as they stand like statues.
And the JUCO superstar blew it on that final play by leaving his man.
Seeing lots of improvement already. The first few weeks of last year's conference season was so heartbreaking but once they clicked it was amazing to watch. Felt like tonight there was a glimpse of this group finally getting it. Tonight gives me hope for the season but man these close ones SUCK
