Despite some good cuts and open shots on both sides, only the bad guys' balls are going through the net. FU with only one three. Even our FT's are spotty. Bad guys by eleven at the half: 39-28.
(23-4) Wofford @ (22-5) Furman Feb. 23rd (Worst Officiated Game in SoCon History)
Good start to the half. Some buckets falling and their lead cut to 7: 47-40.
The comeback has stalled ... down by nine with 5:30 to go.
Sad, but Wofford is just better than us. We'll have to win the So Con tourney to get in IMO.
I am a diehard fan, and this hurts. Any time we lose to Wofford hurts. The 10-year success of Wofford over Furman continues, even though we have won some battles. I will continue looking for us to catch up. Winning the SoCon and going to the NCAA tournament, whether this year or some future year, will be a necessary first step. As I’ve stated previously, they’ve had 4 in the last 10 years, and we’ve had zero.Kennypowers wrote: ↑Sat Feb 23, 2019 5:51 pmSad, but Wofford is just better than us.

I know, many will say the sky is not falling. Maybe it’s not, but at least there is a glass ceiling that we have been unable to break for far too many years. We will keep trying.

Disappointing loss but Wofford is very good. Jackson killed us like he did a few years ago, and MaGee had a lot of clutch shots. I still thinkRaffery is a worthy player of the year, but MaGee is a special talent. Had many wild shots that rimmed out. Could have easily had 30. I’m biased, but I still think we could beat them. We will probably find out in Asheville in the semis. Better win 3 in a row before then to have any shot at tourney at-large, although I think that we might have to win or lose in finals to have any shot.

Love this Furman team and staff but bottom line at this point Wofford is better and more consistant than Furman. No lack of effort the better team won. Furman would have to shoot extremely well to win and that didn't happen. Move on to tourney.

Furman has come a long way, but hasn't caught up with Wofford. I don't think there can be any doubt that the better team won this game.

Refs were bad, controlled that game for Wofford from the tip to the end, we better than Wofford no doubt, not at all worried as long as we don't get a rigged crew against them in the future
Also Cam Jackson don't complain like a baby about our dunk at the end, you did the exact same thing with your pointless layup at the end of the first game
Persecutory delusions are a set of delusional conditions in which the affected persons believe they are being persecuted. Specifically, they have been defined as containing two central elements: The individual thinks that harm is occurring, or is going to occur.
FU had 0% chance in that game, refs controlled the flow throughout in Wofford's favor, I can say that with full confidence
Ridiculous post. Ignorant post. Are you just trying to be funny? By the way, no flopping tonight. None.DungeonRealm wrote: ↑Sat Feb 23, 2019 6:17 pmRefs were bad, controlled that game for Wofford from the tip to the end, we better than Wofford no doubt, not at all worried as long as we don't get a rigged crew against them in the future

Amen! I thought his shot at the end of that game was classless but I doubt he gave it any thought.DungeonRealm wrote: ↑Sat Feb 23, 2019 6:18 pmAlso Cam Jackson don't complain like a baby about our dunk at the end, you did the exact same thing with your pointless layup at the end of the first game
He is a very good player and brought his A game today.
