Clearly we are done for if this continues. Close games are won and lost on the line

Up and down all year.  We shot 93% from the line against Georgetown.  Just doesn't make sense.

According to crean, they make 15 in a row in practice.  Maybe we should change venue of all the remaining home games to the AL :)

As bad as the FT shooting was, we still could have pulled out a W.  One of the biggest killers last night was missing that rebound after DePaul missed the second of two FTs near the end (when I think we were down 1).  DePaul immediately got back to the line, then going 2-2 putting us down 3.

After letting that game sink in for a while, I think that hurt the most.  IMO, the difference in deficit led to the poor shot selection at the end by DJ.
