Lipscomb has not looked great this year. This is a must win type game for the Lions. You have to win against the weaker teams in the division. I look forward to watching it.

Chapman is out and Blackmon didn’t start. Lions down by 9 with 7 mins played. UNA is 4 for 15 in shooting.

Jamari has come off the bench and turned things around by scoring 8 straight points. They said it’s UNA’s 100th game in D1 and he’s played in all of them. Will need him tonight in order to get this win.

Our defense is struggling tonight. We are not guarding the perimeter. Some teams are capable of making open looks. Hopefully we make some serious adjustments at the half. If we could shoot 40% for the game we could hang in there.

Sigh. Shooting 31% and they are 61%!! UNA missed 16 threes that half and have absolutely no answer for Assadulah when he’s in the game.

Disappointing game right here. These are the games we need to find ways to win.

Made a run and cut it to 6 only to again miss wide open shots. Brim missed the runner, Howell missed the threes, We never shoot the layups…not sure why? We could have cut it to 4 points.

Getting out coached in this one. I do appreciate a smart disciplined team. Beating us by playing smart and shooting high percentage shots.

The Lions played them even the second half but couldn’t overcome that first half advantage. UCA beat EKU tonight also. Liberty over Stetson. Bellarmine had to postpone going to JSU due to COVID issues.

On the road we only had 4 turnovers, usually that would equal a road victory. We also shot 91% from the foul line, again seems like victory type numbers. We looked small at guard, like physically small, height wasn’t the issue. Lipscomb looked they have a weight room and use it. We did get dominated in the paint. Expected. Our offense is to shoot a three over a layup. When our guys miss all those shots we are in trouble. We didn’t get many second chance opportunities. I think we should at least try the post occasionally. Make their big guy play on both ends of the court and try to either get him foul trouble or tire him out. We wasted a good shooting game from Blackmon. He was about the only one that could make a shot last night.

No game for the women tonight at Lipscomb. The Bisons notified UNA just hours prior to the game that they have COVID issues.
