We Are Getting Hammered Undeneath

Like Cal said, get better position before the shot goes up.
Virtually every time our players HAVE had position but are getting pushed under and gone over. There should have been a half dozen over the back calls. The one time they did call it, go back and look at the play right before they finally called it, a guy is standing on Tyler's shoulders practically.
You can't go through someone to get the rebound. Early in the game Murray got straight armed to the ground for a rebound. But we need to get tougher underneath also.
That is part of the problem with our bigs, they aren't physical players. They get pushed around too easily. We could use Alex P. tonight.
Every time we try to get tougher they start up with the whistles.
Puts us in a tough spot. We DO need to box out much stronger, but doing so will often lead to a foul on us.
Part of this though is just the fact that aTm is has much more physical strength and athleticism in their post players than we do.
And yet they none of ATM's big have a major offensive threat. They've been killing us with the 3. And 2nd chance tap ins
Rebounding out of the zone is a lot harder than rebounding playing man. And with A&M shooting well from behind the arc, I don't think a zone is the answer. Maybe fora possession or 2 just to mix it up.
Is this surprising? Our backcourt, our guards are our strength. Our bigs, not so much. We're down arguably our best, Alex, at least at times. If we win it's with Tyler and Jamal. The best in the country in my little ole opinion. If we win, and we are, it will be with them. And A&M is a big and talented team. If we can win there I think it's a good sign.
yup, that should only help us rebound better and lord knows they are a terrible 3 pt shooting team so definitely zone them

Absolutely not. They are hitting threes and it's harder to box out in a zone. Zone is the absolute last thing we should do
Yeah I'm a big zone guy, but it doesn't feel like a zone game yet. Just need to be tougher and rebound.
They had no less than 10 legit over the backs that haven't been called. I get that they are bigger, but you can't ride our guards, who have been in decent position, like a horse!! This is garbage officiating once again. I hate bitching about refs, but my Lord, I've never seen a team get the whistle we have this year. Deplorable!!
