That Buckyball is so hot right now!
What's amazing to me is it's completely changed how I watch Aggie basketball
Misses on easy baskets, rebounds, put backs, etc don't bother me anymore
Probably because I know we'll have many more opportunities to score
When buzz was here converting easy buckets were so important bc we'd go for such long stretches without scoring

All the 5-0, 6-0 little spurts from making a basket, forcing a turnover and then scoring off the turnover are awesome. Has to be so defeating for the opposition.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
what i find to be the most exciting is the whole team mentally has accepted their roles and they thrive with internal competition. they are getting better and they play for each other. this team is goijg to be a dangerous team come tourney time. they are also learning how to win close games which is huge.
just an amazing job thus far by bucky, the whole staff and team.

It is definitely way less stressful to watch this style of basketball. Dare I say it's even a little fun?
I hope we are not ranked again this next week. Leave the chip on our shoulders.
Just keep winning and that'll take care of everything.

We only had two votes in the last AP poll, will probably still be unranked after beating two bad teams at home this week. Win at Georgia though and then we'll probably jump in there
Tough road remains ahead…still have to play Florida, Bama, Vandy, Arkansas, and Kentucky. Love that we're taking care of business against the teams who are (allegedly) similar to or worse than us, but there's some big boy basketball on the horizon. Keep improving and we'll be just fine!
But those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they will walk and not be faint. Isaiah 40:31 (NIV)
USCe only had 10 turnovers but it felt much worse than that bc a lot of them were off the backcourt press and lead to easy points

Uga won't be ranked they got destroyed by Texas.
Confidence is contagious, and it starts at the top. Our guys are starting to develop some swag. Great stuff!

When we went down 7 in the first half, I had flash backs and thought, "we have to play perfect from here on out to win". That was last years team. This year, we erased the deficit and built a big lead in about 4 min of play.
So much more fun to watch because we can get hot and put up 15 points in just a few minutes.

That is if Georgia is ranked for the sips just kicked their butts and watching a part of that game, Georgia looked like crap.
This team is unbelievable and damn exciting. Fill up Reed.

You nailed it! I had a ton of confidence in the run coming and don't worry much about score in the 1H like I would before.
The flip side is that no lead is safe, ha. I'm really looking forward to how this team (and even Bucky) evolves on their last 8 minutes strategies the rest of the way. I think you have to keep the pedal down to take advantage of wearing teams out. But it's going to be at the risk of blowing a late lead or two where ball control could've won it (ala a Leach air raid offense).

Georgia and Flo-rida just pinched a large one off.
What now.
Again, I hope they don't receive any votes.
Is it good if the Game Score trend line just straight up points toward "100"??
