Title: This Team Has Heart
Post by: TallTitan34 on February 09, 2011, 08:35:18 PM
Did they play like crap? Yes.  But a team with no heart doesn't come back from 16 down.  These guys busted their asses pressing to get back in the game.

When was the last time MU came back from 16 down on the road?  Louisville in 2003?

I think JFB really stepped up his game to help MU grab some momentum to start the run. He had a pair of layups and his aggressiveness completely changed the way the game was going. Good to see a senior step up. Now the free throw situation...

It helps that they were playing a crap team.  But I guess you could say they have heart.

But the horrendous FT shooting says that some guys on MU suffer from a severe case of nerves down the stretch.

Teams have off nights all the time.  The difference is tonight the team fought to overcome their crappy play and turned a loss into a win.
