Free throws. this team has a knack of going long stretches without scoring. Self mentioned this in the presser yesterday, we simply aren't good enough to go long stretches without scoring. Frank, Perry, Kelly, and Selden are capable of getting to the charity strike consistently, however, that depends on if they are aggressive and in control.
Some Statistics Ft-M/A against WVU
Game1 7m-11a
Game2 34m-43a
WVU outplayed us in virtually every facet of the game; more rebounds, assists, and we didn't make a three (0-15) but we managed a win.
Not saying this is the main factor what i am saying is we cannot go 4-5 minutes without scoring. Our offense has the tendency to stall fairly often and that cant happen if we expect to make any kind of run.
A couple side notes; this team sucks at holding on to leads, however, they show an uncanny ability to close games, almost pulled the ISU game out Saturday and pulled a couple rabbits out of the hat this year. For all the skeptics of our path to UK or the FF, we have the second most talent in this bracket, and its really not close. Its going to come down to us playing smart, aggressive and together. Best of luck to our boys and salute to the SLANTERS attending the games, support will be much needed, i will be up at 1am on Saturday cheering our Hawks along! ROCK CHALK!
