we went toe to toe despite missing FT's and layups and letting good passes fall out of bounds (loved when Arike did the double scoop layup/brick when we were down 55-50 in the 3rd Q). I kept waiting for one of the runs we tend to unleash that reflect our mental toughness. I think the team just had a collective let down when it didn't come before the 5 minute remaining mark in the 4th Q and then all hell broke loose with bad shots/loss of poise and whatever the hell Arike was trying to do on D.
Things looked bleak after the Louisville loss last year.
