3-4 on the B10 road, which certainly impairs our rankings.
Even worse when we're 0-4 on the B10 road outside of the Pacific time zone.
That said, while moral victories only mean a lot to our players' moms and sisters, I defy anyone to pooh pooh what we did in fighting for our lives in the final 4-5 mins. Gotta credit the coaches and players for putting the fear of the basketball gawds into the Ill diaper dandies in the final 4-5 mins:
think back to when we went down by a copious 16 pt deficit at the 4:51 mark. SIXTEEN points down! And, yet, we thundered back to only a one possession trail on a number of iterations in the final minute of play when Ill. came close to monumentally getting bent over.
