Amazing.  Too little too late in my book, but amazing nonetheless.  Of any game in the last five I expected AU to win, this was the least likely.

And yet all the media cares to focus on is that another starter was late to the game and held out. 

What the hell is up with players showing up late for games?

There were too many missed free-throws in this game on our side not the least of which were the last two with 16 seconds of play left.  Both missed.  We came dangerously close to loosing this because we missed two free throws, crazy; and giving up that nine point lead so easily was shameful.

Never-the-less I am very glad to see this win; we should celebrate; and Lebo should have the guys practicing free-throws.

I don't think that any win in conference play is too little too late but that's just me I reckon.

i meant only that in terms of the goal of making the tournament, this won't do it.  And since a tournament invite was the bar/threshold for Lebo.... well....

I didn't mean to bring you down. 

I am always thrilled to win an SEC game, particularly when said win comes against a good team like Tennessee is supposed to be. 

So forget what I said, and enjoy the win in whatever way you choose.
