KD blocked, another wide open transition 3 28-15 a&m. I really have no words for this

"Turmoil in Tampa" will be it's name.

ZERO ball movement from KD. He needs to sit on the bench. I'm so sick of seeing him do that.

[81spacetiger 157]

playing like poop, afraid to take it inside...

[woodford 3,655]

Like I mentioned a couple weeks ago. This is going to be a very disappointing end for us. Just a tad overrated lol

Lol. He only knows one speed

[TAYLORKEETON 790]

God awful 

[Maverick.AU 13,279]

Gonna see what kind of heart these guys have in the 2nd half 

[gravejd 3,270]

Trying not to give up on this team but we look terrible. A&M dominating and should be up by 20

Yeah , like a bull in a China shop

Guess they were too focused on Arkansas?  It is a bit mind-boggling the performance.  Is Bruce's best team he may ever have going to crap the bed?  No...we'll beat the brakes of in the 2nd half.

Man. These game threads are worse than the football game threads. Some of y'all are soft as hell, lol.

Need to work it inside and get the fouls.

Atm will continue to play aggressive as long as we just throw up threes and won’t contest down low. 
 

Then again, if we hit just a third of those threes…

Not hitting our free throws either. 

[AUDynasty 585]

Embarrassing, but we just need to get a stop and make smart shots and we’ll be alright

Out of control all the time

[auburnatl1 4,893]

KD is such a mixed bag. He can save a game or drag entire team down into chaos.

[JDUBB4AU 5,112]

What a mess guys . Nothing to be happy about right now . 

[ShocksMyBrain 9,362]

Hopefully have a productive halftime and come out with some adjustments.

BB team starting to resemble football team.

Right now, TAMU wants this game more than Auburn does. They are outplaying  Auburn in all aspects of the game.

Bruce explained why he allows his guys to shoot so many 3's even when the team is cold and he said "my guys give 100% on defense and that's nearly impossible to find in college. I tell them if you give me 100% on defense, I'll let you shoot your shot on offense." 

I still don't like this approach because after 32 games, you are what you are and we aren't good from 3.

That has always been my primary critique of Bruce: being a "player's coach" to a fault. Obviously, overall it has worked to our benefit very much, but at any given point of a particular game, it can leave us shaking our heads at a lack of discipline. Like Bowers running the point, playing Flan when he's a turnover machine, letting Cambridge jack up 3's, last year's poor defensive efforts, the list goes on. When it embarrassingly shows up, like in this half, it is so frustrating. TAMU has been playing fairly well the past few weeks, but AU should not be down like this. This is on Bruce. Let's hope for a comeback. As we saw yesterday, TAMU can go cold and let a team back in it.

This isn’t a 1 seed. Hell we may be the 5th best team is the SEC right now. We have no identity anymore. Just throw up three’s and hope for the best.

[au302 2,669]

KD has got to play within the team. Love him, but give the ball to others sometimes 

[tgrogan21 6,198]

Hey, look throw it up high for Kessler and he can catch it.
