As we head to OT. What were we doing on our last possession?
Time outs to use. We don’t run a play and settle for a long three after dribbling around for 20 seconds.
Nice win. We weren’t great but a great win nonetheless.

Some real negative stats but a tribute to team to get the victory. Elon wins by shooting under 30 percent from the arch and shooting less than 53 percent from the line. Our point guard had 7 turnovers. We did out rebound a division I team. Four things I didn't think I would watch in an Elon victory this season. Congratulations to Coach Matheny how did Elon win that game? Is it possible we could win the rest of our non-conference schedule?

Glad they got the win. Dawkins was a workhorse and Dmitri played really well. All the starters played a big role tonight.
Another alarming stat is 6 bench points. I'm also concerned about what post play is going to look like when Dawkins is gone next year.
Keep it going against the Peacocks on Saturday night.
Go Phoenix!

Is it possible we could win the rest of our non-conference schedule? Possible? Yes. Likely? No. Seeing 4 of the next 5 are on the road, I just can’t see winning them all. |

Nice job by the guys pulling that game out. It does say something to keep fighting even when things aren't going well. Something still feels missing though and the similarities to 2013-14 remain. Back to the prior thread, someone mentioned the concern about how this team closes games. The Milwaukee finish was totally bothched of course but even in winning, there were too many turnovers and mistakes in the Radford/USF wins. These will haunt us in CAA games, where most are decided by a few possessions. I guess I expected 5 upperclassmen to be better equipped for these moments than other teams. Anyway, there are 4 weeks to clean this stuff before CAA play begins. We also need to get Seibring and Santa Ana going a bit as they have struggled so far

I thought this was the best game we’ve played this season. Lots of passing and driving the lane. Less dribbling and errant long range bombing. Need to work on the free throws though.

43% of our shots were threes and we made just 27% of them. Although I agree with the driving etc. But we did have a lot of errant long range bombing, although we have to just live with a lot of the shots we misssed
