Playing a sub .500 team at home. We ought to handle them easily…so I expect a nail biter.

Big night. Team could really use both a win and a Troy loss to JMU. The #2 seed still very much in play but probably need to win out or come close to it. Flipside is a Troy win over JMU puts them in a great spot for the #2 seed, but means App has a better shot for a Top 4 seed.

Glad they’re shooting as bad as we are.

And they haven’t even played zone defense yet. This is bad.
13 total points for both teams in 8 minutes.

S Miss may be the ugliest team in the conference.

Production on ESPN+ is 3rd rate. Embarrassing.

As someone who holds a degree in Broadcast Communications from App State, I am embarrassed by the production quality of what we show on ESPN+. This HAS to improve.

We see the Southern Miss coach interview twice? Pathetic.

We’ve got to wear them down somehow. They are a little quicker than us, but smaller. We seem to be having trouble getting the ball in the paint against a smaller team.

Beaubrun is struggling against the quicker defender. Keep pounding it.

Too many turnovers and all inside. I feel like we’re on the verge of going on a run, though. Starting to get better looks.

Wilson is maturing before our eyes.

I did not know we were 9-19 from the line. And good shooters are missing them. Tate, Dodd, everyone.

When we could go on a run we Miss 6 straight at the line. We can play good. I’ve seen it! But right now we are not good.

We should try running a lineup with Beaubrun, Wilson, Huntley, Dodd and Tate.

Huntley has taken an unfair beating over the last week.
