Miller can be overly aggressive on offense at times but it pays off a lot as well. He was leading the team in FT attempts per minute coming in to tonight and he is shooting nearly 80% at the line.

Nice interview by Frank Bartley on ESPN3 after the game.
Repeated the Marlin manifesto, play defense!

Marquetti and Gant barely played in the second half for Stove and Miller who were both playing exceptional. Also, they went to more cuts and the inside game rather than the perimeter game we played in the second half and made more shots. That was gutsy considering he sat two guys who had been a big part of getting us to where we are.

Agree.

Now it's time to beat Danny Kaspar's VCR Salesman-looking ___ on Saturday

I can’t believe how bad UTA is. Hervey looks like a totally different player.

The comeback was so methodical.
It looked easy. Bartley and Miller had their best games of the year.

I was screaming at the TV for the majority of the first half and honestly, don’t think we played all that well. Still skull dragged the league favorite in the second half..

On their home court!

I was wondering what was gonna happen when this team got smacked in the mouth. Well we got smacked around and then knocked those mother fkrs out. We took their best shot and laughed. This team is special. Ive been saying it and it feels damn good to be right! Lol let’s go boys!!

Cajuns were overall pretty consistent throughout the game and UTA was super streaky. You could see why UTA was preseason conference favorites at times and then you could also see why they are now sub .500 in conference play as well.

Hervey looked pretty good to me. Scored 22 or 24 points. Problem for them was that they really never decided to go to him down low until it was too late with a smaller man on him. When they did, he was effective. Not our problem though. Also, they definitely don't have as much around him as they did last year, especially off the bench.

Out rebounded them 45 - 30...playyyaaaa

Our percentages were higher on every front. Including PERSONAL FOULS!!!! wTH gents?
