It was definitely hard to watch. Just didn't look like YSU was ready to play. Looked like we were going through the motions. Had a feeling we were due for one of these games. I thought it was the worst effort since the 2nd half of the Akron game. Though it was good to see we played better in the second half and seemed pick up the intensity late in the game or maybe UIC just tailed off. It could have been really ugly when they were up 31 or whatever.
Simmons had an excellent game, Naz was tremendous on the boards, and Ola had one of his better games, but that was about it. Everyone else seemed to really struggle.
I thought we needed to split this road trip and now that we lost really need to find a way to beat IUPUI Saturday or we're going to fall pretty far behind before playing what are probably the best 2 teams in the league in N. Kentucky & Wright State. Was shocked to see Milwaukee beat Oakland on the road. Detroit is definitely the surprise of the league at 4-1. Davis is unbelievable.
