Bradley Preview and Game Thread -- 2-9-2022

Schwieger only shooting 1 of 2 at the line. CK missing a layup after a great feed from Hall. These things can't happen down the stretch on the road against a good team.

Not to mention the offensive rebound we gave up that led to the layup by Roberts. Such a disappointing loss

No FG for 5 min?

Missed layups and opponents offensive rebounds are as bad as turnovers…and we’ve had a lot of those tonight.

Valentine needs to figure something out with this offense.

That last possession has happened way too often. 1 guy with the ball and 4 guys standing around looking at him. There's no movement at all.

I get it, there's going to be nights where you don't hit shots. The end of this game where they bricked every single open look they got is an example of that. What can't happen though is all of your guys basically giving up on the offensive end. It just can't happen.

We 100% deserved to lose this game. Now, I feel very confident that we've lost our shot at an at-large bid because of it.

I am fine with losing to any MVC team other than Bradley.

Why is Clemons on the bench when we need 3s

God damn it. Too many missed opportunities down the stretch. So f'n frustrating. Especially losing to this Bradley team who, frankly, isn't very good.

I thought after the win @MoSt, we would find our groove. This is such a disheartening loss. I'm not sure we can lose another game now if we want a chance at an at-large. Literally zero margin for error.

Guess we now sit behind UNI in conference standings. Team needs to figure it out.

Capping it off with more missed layups

[ROWDIE_09]

Awful performance. MSU hangover perhaps?

Lack of size inside. Again, not a fan of Hutson.
Turnovers galore.
Constant foul trouble.
Poor free throw shooting.

I’m worried for the boys down the stretch. We’re too inconsistent and it’s the wrong time of the season for that. Our offense is an enigma.
