Both Coaches should been upset with the Officials. Having to go to the monitor too much not paying attention to the flow of the game. In most cases they shouldn’t have to go to the monitor unless a coach request it.

Teams that play smart basketball win a lot of games. Team that do unexplainable things during a game end up with very ugly embarrassing losses. Do not understand the foul with 14 seconds up by 8...why stop the clock and let the other team score with a stopped clock? Why let them shoot a three and the end of regulation? Foul prior to the shot for 2 shots at the line...not three? Our coaches lost track of the game too...not just the players. We likely just blew 2nd in the league...this was the easiest game we had left.

The last 30 seconds of regulation were just pitiful.

She has never done well in stressful in-game situations. She's kept her cool more this year but some of the decisions are mind-boggling. We were ahead by 7 with 14 seconds left! They will have to fight hard to host a game in the conference tournament.

FGCU just beat Lipscomb down in Ft. Myers. That's probably the worst thing that could have happened for the conference. Now, any shot (no matter how long of a shot) the conference had at getting 2 in the tournament is even narrower because of this. The only good point is, like the commentator on the game said, the committee is putting NET ratings ahead of all else and if it dont drastically hurt Lipscomb in NET, then we may get 2 in anyway. Lipscomb and Liberty are both sitting good in that category.

Lipscomb and Liberty are both sitting good in that category. Lipscomb is at #38 this morning. But that's coming from the NCAA site, and I'm not sure it's been updated with last night's games (it says 2/19 on it). So my guess would be after the loss to FGCU they could fall into the lower 40s. Liberty is at #54. If they don't go any lower, my guess is they would be on the outside looking in, depending of course on how conference tournaments go. I just think that will be too high when it comes to choosing the bubble teams. I still think the best bet for the conference would be for Liberty and Lipscomb to win out through the conference tournament final, and for Liberty to win that game. Lipscomb then probably finishes with a good enough NET ranking to sneak in the tourney. In addition to the number of teams in the tourney, I'd like to see the ASUN champ get to be a consistent 11 or 12 seed (or lower obviously). That would give us more favorable matchups and hopefully let us win some first round games.

If someone like us got hot and won the tournament, then only 1 will get in period. But I still think there is a chance of both Liberty and Lipscomb getting in. There would absolutely be 2 in if FGCU hadn't had fallen off the way they did, but I'm glad they did too.

Didn’t think we could pull it out without Agnew playing some role in it? Proud of the team. We need some confidence prior to playing with n the tourney. Think Dutrell and Littles are improving which is huge for us. We just need them to keep contributing each game. Glad to see Matic back in the lineup, just in time too. In December making the ASUN tournament looked bleak, team has really grown second half of the season. Next year has the potential to be special. Gonzaga and Pitt are lucky they got us this year....
