Lost to a great team. Free throws still a problem. Shot selection was a major problem this game. Way to many shots from 3 that were sloppy.

Final

UCA 30-33=63 (4-4)
OSU 42-49=91 (8-1)

UCA v OSU

FGs: 35% v 49%
3s: 23% v 30%
FTs: 47% v 74%
Rebs: 35 v 53
TOs: 14 v 16

Neither team shot well from 3s....we rebounded better the 2nd half with 9 offensive boards vs 1 in first half...OSU won PIP by 44-26...plus they made more free throws (20) than we shot (19).....pretty much the game...

Harks had a nice game with 16/7..Garner also at 14/6 and Crawford at 11/6....

Coach: Getting out in transition and get some TOs early.....just could not maintain...."lost our minds" offensively and took some poor shots.....OSU has some players who can really play.....saw our team compete......gives us someting to build on....proud of Harks playing well with a hurt foot....when you are not making shots you have to find another way to win.... MS State is an SEC caliber team in spite of their record...will be a tough road game....lots of practice this week...

Pre-game radio show for OSU v UT-Arlington on 12/19/12 actually must have mentioned Central Arkansas 50 times....none were negative...Travis Ford noted that OSU had not seen the style UCA plays and it took them 8-10 minutes to fgure out how to adjust.....bottom line...they had not seen a pressure defense that much and had to figure out how to get the game into their style.....as the OSU announcer said, UCA started out with a 5 foot wide basket that shrunk before their eyes to 5 inches....
