Auburn literally could've had 20+ fouls in that half. Hate playing teams like this. They picked up 5-6 quick ones then like always happens the refs start to get whistle shy not wanting to call a foul every possession and they start getting away with murder. The way they call the games encourages this type of play. If they keep fouling just keep calling it.

I mean, our bigs suck. Just own it. Play the two frosh and press the poo out of everyone. Basically recreate the old Arkansas 40 minutes of hell pressure D. You have to adapt to your roster. You can't just act like Armando Bacot is going to show up tomorrow.

Cadeau, RJ, Jackson, Powell, and Withers should be our main five and just try to turn it into a track meet.

If we don't switch it up and start playing full court pressure D we're just going to have to shoot lights out and have the other team have an off night to have a chance against top teams. We've trailed by 20 in three of our four games and ended up getting back in them by picking up the pressure. This team has to pressure and create pace because we don't have the post presence to play half court ball on either side of the court.

UNC is soft which is indicative of poor coaching. Like Mack, Hubert coddles these kids.

This really is the problem this season.  UNC being pushed around and missing a man in the middle.  Great everywhere else but no bruiser in the middle will hurt them

Doesn't look like Carolina has the firepower to play this run and gun style they're trying. Davis needs to slow them down and call some set plays.

Absolutely the wrong take. We have to run and gun. We have zero post presence. We just have to make shots. We just can't hit water from a boat tonight and we're turning it over to boot. Then you have a poor shooting opponent shooting lights out. 

Looks like a long season ahead of us though if Hubert doesn't adapt to this roster. We have to play a pressure trapping D and get out in transition because we aren't beating anyone in the half court.

    • Just had his best game? The Panthers did have their best win in terms of quality of opponent.  Reality is, Bryce Young was treated like a backup QB for almost the entire game vs the Rams.   It's yet another example of a long run of oddities come to life for Bryce on  the year.  Almost this weird The Golden Calf of Bristol season weirdness where it clearly is not good QB play but randomness resulting in a random season overall.  Canales frankly called 2 really dumb calls on 4th down and it worked out terrifically.  I mean, credit Bryce for making the plays, sure.   But I don't think 2 wild gambles really erase everything else.  I mean, take out the 4th down oddities and he was at 130 yards on the day (with a lot of YAC). 
    • I mean, did Bryce ever become a prince for more than a game or two at a time?    I am not advocating in any way, shape or form for Sanders as a starter. If he was available for nickels and could compete in camp, I would be fine having him. I don't view him as any sort of savior and he is another guy that has some legit physical limitations and a TON of work to do getting faster and more decisive with his reads. I can't say given sample size he is better than Bryce....yet. But that ain't much in the way of bars to clear. Hence why I am so perplexed by the Kyler arguments here. I mean.....who in the world would even question the fact that he is a better QB than Bryce? And, once again, that doesn't make him good. It makes him better than one of the worst starting QB's in the past 5 or so years.
    • I mean, you probably should've waited after the season is over before "going there," that way we we'd have four more games of comparison and discussion. Don't get me wrong, I occasionally go out on a limb, but Bryce just had his best game and has given people hope (which could realistically be false hope), and Shedeur just doesn't have that many games under his belt (even if he does look promising), one of them being against the Titans. No harm in being patient and letting things play out.  If you noticed, Tepper seems to be taking a wait-and-see attitude, and he didn't mention Bryce in the clip in the other thread. I'm still highly skeptical of Bryce (and glad that Sanders has shown an ounce of success), but the reality is that we have to let things play out. The Sanders train left long ago (if it was even here). But,there are more realistic options if Bryce turns back into a frog.
