That is not giving up, it is just making an observation. To Brooke's credit we did FINALLY! extend our zone defense and got out there and messed up their weave offense, which had been creating the open looks.
Passion and energy from coaches is great and is needed but needed more is good X's and O's.
I think, objectively, Charlotte is the best team in CUSA, as is UAB on the men's side. Perhaps if we were playing 7-game series it would be very tough to almost impossible for us to win. But, we're not. It's ONE game and Charlotte, and UAB are NOT that much better than us. We can do this. Just have to stay focused and take care of those little things we have control of.
Go Dawgs...and
Love dem Techsters!
