No idea why Davis didn't just shoot the winning shot, but must have been a scripted play and Lorient wasn't ready for it.

Worst thing that would happen is he goes to the line…

I'm speechless.

FINAL STATS: FAU 73 Temple 74 | The late rally for FAU comes up short in the end despite shooting 54% from the field. Goldin and Davis scored 41 PTS combined, while the team edged Temple 6-0 in blocks.

Lots and lots of reasons for uor losses this season. We can't get all our scorers hot consistently. IMHO, Vlad I'd the only pro prospect on the team. Many guards in the country are better than ours.

I'd be fine with Davis passing the ball, but giving it to Lorient, who probably wasn't expecting the ball, instead of a wide open Martin at the corner, puzzles me.

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. Another positive is that we out-rebounded them by 10. Trying to see the positives in a tough loss for our guys.


GO Owls!!! I still believe.
