I am still troubled by this team.

If you're troubled by this team, I recommend you become a Duck, Gamecock, or (Baylor) Bear. Literally every other WCBB team this season has had lapses, bad nights, and shoddy stretches. And even those three teams have all suffered at least one L this season.

What's something else those three teams have in common? They are the heavy favorites for the national title. And you know why they are the heavy favorites? Because they limit their inconsistency, bone-headed plays and have the ability to put away opponents. We all want the team to win the national title, but it's not going to happen unless they fix these mistakes that are under our control.

For example, we often use youth as an excuse or explaining factor on mistakes or why the team is not performing as well as it should. South Carolina just completed conference play undefeated, beating quality teams like Kentucky, Tennessee and Mississippi State, with THREE freshmen starting. It appears that youth hasn't stopped them from having an excellent season and being a national title favorite (and probable #1 overall seed in the tournament)

Yes, we have had more than our fair share of injuries that has put us at a disadvantage. But that shouldn't explain away why we make bad passes or let teams come back from second half deficits or rely so much on Kiana on offense, especially when we are trying to burn clock.
