Ok, so I missed part of this game early in the second half. Enberg has said twice that SIU took over when O'Bryant was sitting on the bench with 3 fouls.
My question is, why in the hell would a team's dominant player be sitting on the bench in the second half with three fouls? Why would you allow a team to go on an extended run with the player who has scored half your team's points sit on the bench with three, NOT FOUR, fouls in the second half???
I was thinking the same thing. He got his 3rd fould with 12 mins left and went to the bench. That was when the big run happened and SIU went up double digits.
Last 3 years, we win the MVC regular season and fail in the tourney. Good to see them come through when the had to.
Wish we had a go to scorer. Shaw is a good shooter but is tentative. Tatum is too streaky and out of control sometimes.
