Evansville comes in averaging 18 team fouls and 19 opponent free throws a game. Tonight: 12 total fouls and 2 UNI free throws.



That was not even close to a foul.

James could have easily been called for the foul as he was grabbing the UE player after he got picked.

One reason for the low number of fouls is that UNI continued to shoot outside jumpers all night and didn't try to use their height advantage in the paint. However, this is their style of play with over 300 three pointers attempted already this year.

Once again we had a chance to win, but found a way to lose. Seems like a theme this year. This team is like the Dallas Cowboys and just invents new ways to lose. So disappointing for what this team was supposed to be. When you have as many seniors as we do things like this at the end of games shouldn't happen. We can't get a shot off in 28 seconds at the end of the game? Really?

Our two teams are equal and do not want to play you guys a third time.
There is no difference between basketball and life. Give both your best and ignore the "fans" on the sideline.

Post sounds like many an Evansville fan after the road loss in Des Moines a couple weeks ago. :rock:

Sure is a Jeckyll & Hyde with UNI on the road. It happens. It would not suprise me for UNI to beat Creighton and Wichita at home.
