Wonder if the slugfest against ODU took something out of our team? Or maybe we didn't come as ready to play because of Charlotte's record. We didn't play with the same level of intensity on defense tonight, but a ton of credit to the way Charlotte played. They were well prepared for this game and shot lights out tonight.

FWIW, based on the foul call discussion we've been having MT with double the fouls called on us in another road game. Until the final few seconds when Charlotte had to foul intentionally only three called on the Niners in the second half and only nine total the first 39 and 1/2 minutes.

Giddy only played ten minutes or so due to an upper thigh/groin injury according to Kermit.
