Cooked.

Sampson has to get more guys into the rotation early this season if we’re to make any real noise later in the season. We don’t have a go to guy and need to identify one. I know it was one game, but would have like to see Miller get some mins tonight based of his performance game 1.

Need more shots for sharp and LJ. When we are confronted with size, we get bodied. Auburn is a good team.

We will grow as the year goes, Uzan will get better.

Looking forward to a Kingston commit on Thursday!

**Auburn is better than are we right now. Easy to see.

Lots of improvement needed.**

Yup. Come to the Fertitta Center! Way better atmosphere.

LJ just wasnt aggressiveness in second half. He starts taking all his shots in the last 1:00 minute of the game.

Auburn was the better team tonight. Congrats to them. Lots to improve on.

lol. We lost by 5. With Ja’Vier hurt and TA on a minutes restriction.

Sharp cant create his own shot as well as Cryer or Shead use to so that limits us. Uzan fouling out hurt down the stretch. I love Roberts but he forced some shots at innopertune times waisted possessions. Tugler defense did not look good in this game.

Hate to say this but we have to get more shots up especially more 3s. It’s just how the game is changing.

Same crap every year no offense.

We’ll bounce back.

Top scoring guard stat line at 13pts isn’t going to get it done in March. Good test for the second game.

On a side note - that guy Pettiford is going to be something!

Sampson is just too conservative on offense. Sometimes you got to let your guys play. Pettiford played and was able to shoot with confidence. Got to instill confidence in your players on offense.

This felt like the ISU games last year.

Their Big Men clearly beat ours.
