Tough loss - looked a step slow all night. Give Temple credit - tough D, great hustle.

We never looked in it. A step slow all night. Hope they learned something.

TERRIBLE. And we still could (should) have won.

Wow. Can't think of a single player who played well. It happens.
This is a loss to build on, though.

Why oh why didnt Hollis just hand it off to Julian for the dunk??? I have it paused on my TV right now. Perfect passing lane for a little drop off. He must have thought he was getting a foul called.

Second straight close game that Hollis panicked/tried to be the hero too quickly on the last possession. Got bailed out against Missou. Not tonight.

I can't believe that's how our last possession played out.

Hoyas need to realize that when you are ranked in the top 10, team will give you their best shot, especially on the road. For some reason these guys weren't ready - just lacked the focus and intensity all game. Well deserved loss, guys. Learn from it and move on.

Yeah, he must have thought they would blow the whistle on that bump. This isn't Kansas though.....
He's young. He will learn from this. As will the team.

Played our worst game yet and should have won it. Why do we always play so poorly up in Philly? That city is a jinx for the Hoyas. Coulda shoulda woulda tonight.

good to get this game now because during this time work on the weaknesses. julian was open, plus plenty of time to swing the ball. argh - mercury retrograde

Hollis isn't that good and that's a fact. I think we've all expected him to be a bit more of a factor. This is his third year in the system. We played so bad, but still could have won. That's the positive.

Almost like the universe had to give back what we took from Missouri. Yeah, this time, Hollis didnt get bailed out.

Hollis. C'mon buddy. Don't need you to be a hero. I think I would have like to have seen us use our last time out there.

Nobody played well. When Chris Wright doesn't get his first FG until 6:41 in the game, that says something about how disjointed and unfocused this team was.

Not our night. Didn't give up though. Not the worst loss in the world. Tough defensive team that played a good offensive game. Could have done some things better (maybe not have hollis take the last shot?), but not a bad effort when several of our players weren't clicking.
This is a fair punishment for the flat start. Let's let this be the last game we have to learn that lesson.

Who knows where that last possession was supposed to go, but I think we need to make sure it goes to one our 3 guards. No offense Hollis, but this is not your team yet.
Hats off to Temple they dictated the game to us with their defense and had a very good offensive night.
