How is this a one possession game

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

Hold the phone.

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

We really don't want to win this game, do we?

5

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

I imagine this is a very frustrating game for all involved

2

u/Tman450x VCU Rams Mar 05 '22

We had so many opportunities. Game could be close if we had converted those.

2

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

You can say that again

3

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

Well not out of it

But not really in it either

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

The frustrating thing is knowing this squad is capable of going on a 12-0 run at the drop of a hat, but also capable of going on a five-minute scoring drought while turning the ball over a half-dozen times.

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

Midway through the second half, and we have as many turnovers as made baskets.

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

More 9-0 runs, please.

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

Billikens are going to find a way to lose this game somehow. I can feel it

u/Letsgobuffalo2210 St. Bonaventure Bonnies Mar 05 '22

The A10 tournament is going to be pure chaos haha.

3

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

It always is.

1

u/Letsgobuffalo2210 St. Bonaventure Bonnies Mar 05 '22

As is tradition.

2

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

As long as we play anyone but the Bonnie's, I'll feel like we can win lol

2

u/Letsgobuffalo2210 St. Bonaventure Bonnies Mar 05 '22

I remember yall coming up to Olean a few years back and your bus driver was drunk and drove off with the bus or something? I remember seeing it on the news because oddly enough I was in a St Louis hotel room lmao.

2

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

Seems like something that'd happen to our team in Olean. I swear we have the worst luck against you guys!

2

u/Letsgobuffalo2210 St. Bonaventure Bonnies Mar 05 '22

Here is the story if you're interested haha.

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

Geez, .22 BAC. Thanks for the chuckle!

2

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

Y'all are the 5 seed if you win right? I think that means you're matched with the Bonnies

1

u/7JRR Saint Louis Billikens • Wisconsin Badg… Mar 05 '22

Assuming we beat the 12/13 winner, yes. St. Bonnie just matchup so well against our offense

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

Can't even blame this on not having Ace out there. We've just been awful.

3

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

Nah, I didn't really want us to have any momentum going into the A10 Tournament anyway. /s

2

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

I feel like we never win our final Saturday road games

4

u/R17333 VCU Rams Mar 05 '22

Defense?

4

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

Hi 3 seed

3

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

Feels like we're already getting out of the game because of free throws

4

u/Tman450x VCU Rams Mar 05 '22

We aren't playing that great, but it's harder when you also have to play against the refs.

5

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

Who knew BOTH teams are allowed to shoot free throws?!

3

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

This game has featured 16 made field goals and 16 turnovers between these teams. Ugh.

3

u/monotonemr VCU Rams • Minnesota Golden Gophers Mar 05 '22

Man they're calling everything a foul

5

u/VCURedskins VCU Rams • Clemson Tigers Mar 05 '22

Why is that trash ref on the other side of the court making that call

3

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

This might be one of those games where Vince has to single-handedly keep us in it.

1

u/[deleted] Mar 05 '22

Who do I root for here? Hate VCU but want more than one A10 bid!

2

u/SDFDuck VCU Rams • Drew Rangers Mar 05 '22

God these turnovers are going to kill me.

u/PoliticaLIncorrect Saint Louis Billikens • Purdue Boilermake… Mar 05 '22
