The guards look a lot better on days when the 3 ball is dropping. It just wasn’t our night. We shot about 20% worse than normal from three. If we just make 1 more it’s a win. Not to mention temple probably shot 20% better than they normally do from 3.

Just absolutely ridiculous to end our best shot at a conference title in God knows how long given the impending defections. Such bs man we’ve lacked so much consistency all year. Get ready for a quick exit in the tournament. We night get a W in the first round but no way this whole 6plus minutes without a FG offense is NOT going to fly against a one seed and we do that A LOT

What a game. I'm not one to cry about referees, but that 7 point B.S. that turned into a flagrant!! It's almost like they are giving ref's bonuses like police officers for writing tickets and hitting quotas. That was literally a one finger touch. That call changed the game completely. Hats-off to Temple. Played out of their minds…I guess we will settle for an eight/nine seed. And one positive in all this, is that we can rest and focus on the "real" tourney.

GO Owls!!! I still believe.

That flagrant foul had me FLOORED. In the end, however, got to give credit to Temple for this run they're having. Don't know if they'll have enough energy vs UAB, but they have proven a lot of people wrong so far.

I agree it shouldn't have been called and was the pivotal swing in the game, but technically it was a flagrant. For whatever reason Goldin felt the need to keep his hand out and deliberately touched his face after the shot -- it was a call that shouldn't have been made but really stupid on Goldin. Still, I put no blame on Vlad for this game. There are a ton of other issues and trying to process everything that unfolded.

I don't know anymore, 3 bad losses below the Q3 line now. I've seen supposed 'locks' get left out before although if I had to bet I guess they are in with a very negative national narrative now. I think we may have played into a play in game unfortunately.

THIS IS WHY I DID NOT WANT TO PLAY TEMPLE.

The good news is that we start a clean slate and we will make the tournament. Unlike USF and Memphis. Looks like USF will get in the NIT. They had an amazing season.

I think we will be a lock for a nine seed.  

Let's support our players. They can go deep. I STILL BELIEVE.

Yea the announcers kept saying we are a lock in the tournament after yesterday’s win against UNT. I’m not sweating it I’m just hoping we go to Charlotte so the flight is quick and easy!

We need to continue supporting these young men for all of their dedication to the FAU basketball program over the past few years and all of the excitement they have brought to the university.

Now, on to the NCAA Tournament.

A couple of years ago it was a big deal to just get an invitation to the College Basketball Invitational (CBI) in Daytona Beach!

Go OWLS!
