We would have won every one of the last 4 games with this same kind of game.Actually, we had 10 offensive rebounds and scored 15 points off of them. We outplayed Campbell in a lot of ways, but it wasn't enough to offset that blistering shooting display.
Not much you can do about a team shooting 70% from behind the arc. We were defending them pretty well and they still got the shots off. Those guys were shooting from beyond the NBA line.
At least we were trying to work the ball inside, taking good shots and hit some 3's. Not sure what our offensive rebounding numbers are, but the last 3 games, I have noticed after almost every shot, 4 players are retreating to play defense and don't follow their shot for a possible rebound. Seems like is is almost always 4 on1 rebounding under our goal.
UVA held Clemson to 36 points points tonight. The pack line works somewhere.

Not sure that translates to beating UNCA, HP,or RU who are better defensive teams than Campbell.. LU hit 50% of their 3s in the RU game as an example..
