Nice to know you can knock a guy off balance for a foul and still get a flagrant called when his elbow inadvertently hits you.

If this was his last game for SFA what a career. He could've been the next Walkup he not been injured.

2:45 left. Down by 3. Crunch time. Ty gone. Time for a hero to stand up. SFA! SFA! SFA!

Can someone explain Bogues not playing?

I'm team Keller now, but what's up with this?

Seems like we are running the offense opposite of him.

Dammit. 35 minutes of toe to toe but another long drought puts us under.......and maybe a touch of credit to Tech

Bogues cramp and TJ fouls, the great what-ifs of sports. I'd really like to know how TY's foul was an offensive foul.

What a strong game by our Jacks. Couldn't finish it, but that was as good as a game that they have played. Need a break or two on some momentum plays. Despite the final margin, it could have been flip flopped on two maybe three plays. Bogues' inopportune cramp probably the biggest. TJ's 4th.

Proud of you Jacks. If you have to go out, at least you let everyone know you can play!

Proud of our guys but I'm pissed. We were there. We were in control for 36 minutes. Tech did what we wanted them to do. 13-3 run to end the game. Brutal. This one stings...

This reminds me of the feeling after Notre Dame. We were a sweet 16 team again this year. No doubt if we won today, we can win Saturday.
It's gonna hurt.
But nothing to be upset about. Kyle got his team to the dance and almost took down a team full of nba talent. This team will be even better next year.

Completely agree cboothe,....you called it right there.

Awesome effort. Went cold at the wrong. Proud of players and coaches. That Tech guard is the real deal. That offensive foul on Leon was bogus. Should have been an And one.

As much as this stings, future looks a lot brighter than it did just a few weeks ago. Proud of you jacks!

I'm not as upset as I thought I'd be if we lost. Great effort by our guys. They represented the school well. Only eight months until we start our next loooong winning streak. Axe 'em!!

The Nieminen tech was a big momentum swing nullified. I'm not saying it wasn't a flagrant, but I'm not saying it should have been one. Going up three there would have been big.

Bogues cramps, weird calls on TJ, ty, and Leon. Still hung in there just could not win the last 5 minutes. Their guard was definately using his arm to push off all night, called once. Tech's defense ramped it up the last 5 minutes.

I believe that 3 different times in this game we went from 5-8 minutes without a FG. Tech's D may have had something to do with it but it kept us from bumping up our lead a few times.

I agree! And when we got the rebound up one and we were careless with the ball under their basket and gave it right back to them

Great season men! Tough loss, but a hell of season I watched
MasterAxe

I don't know for sure, but I believe we had two 6+ minute stretches without a field goal.

That was the difference.

2nd half, we went up 8 and then went ice cold, let tT back.

Great effort by players and coach Keller, but we lost to a deeper, taller, and also well-coached team.

TT's size made the difference. Our FG percentage would've been much better and the second half scoring drought less critical if they weren't blocking or negatively influencing 75% of our layup attempts. How many offensive rebounds did we get? I lost count at maybe two...not from lack of effort, just a huge mismatch.

Someone else said somewhere else that you don't get many actually effective big men in the SLC because those guys end up in programs with guaranteed national TV appearances and/or they're potential one and dones spread thru a max of 20 schools. Not for lack of trying I'm sure, but it works out that way. In the best of all possible worlds SFA can break with that, and efforts like tonight's on top of an increasingly positive reputation as a school that's serious about basketball can change that.

Going off the wagon!

Only way to take care of a Texas sized loss.

Bummed but really proud of this team and how they represented our alma mater. Ivan had a really good game. Ty and Leon never really got it going. Bogues cramp and TJ's fourth foul were huge. Ultimately I think the Tech depth was better than our depth. And, Evans was lights out in the second half.

Although the three seniors will be missed, I am confident the team can be better next year with a couple of quality additions to the two already signed and further growth from the returners. I know the guys coming back left the arena wanting more.

Glad we made it to the game. It was fun. Now for a drink .... or four.

To honor our lumberjacks, I will be drinking exclusively jack for the rest of the night.

Man, that was a disappointing last few minutes but a heck of a season. We should have won it against a team that might have got a 1 seed if not for the broken toe.

That was a heck of a season and a well played & coached game. We went toe to toe with one of the top 2 teams in the Big 12 for 35 minutes. I expect they'll be sending us an invite any day now.

Now on to recruiting season, and and we know that Keller is top notch in that regard. I guarantee you a lot of recruits watched that game.

Just got back home from the game. Super dissapointing result. We were the better team for most of the game. Tech made the plays when it counted. It felt weird to be at the big dance without the likes of Trey and Walkup. Those guys could carry the rock against anybody any day. When it came to crunch time execution suffered. I think if there is an area for improvement it is the execution. Tech' defense might have stymied us some but that team was not better than the SEC teams we played. I honestly though we played down to Tech at times. This was a very winnable game despite the 10% odds.

I think I may keep Big Jack up for the whole tournament - just so he gets a taste of going deep into March - I want him hungry for more next year.
