"Turning point of the season" 

Post#1 » by Texas Longhorns » Thu Mar 20, 2008 2:24 am

"The other day, we were talking about the streak and how good we started to play after the Boston game," Scola said Monday. "I said you could put the second half of the Boston game in
there, too.

"That was the turning point for us, halftime in Boston. We were really struggling. We were losing so many games. We were playing really bad. All of a sudden, we started playing in Boston, down by 20. I think it was the turning point. Since then, it all changed for us.

"After that, I think we changed our minds and said, 'We got to go out there and we've got to fight, we have to play hard. We have to compete. These guys are fighting.' And we did that. It was a really good turning point for us. After that, it all changed."


Could this be the turning point the other way around for the season now from last night's halftime. It seems that way because it was tied at halftime and then the game turned around. What do you guys think? (It's a crazy theory)

I think it may be a little to soon to make a thread like this after two losses. It is a bit reactionary IMO. If we continue to lose please feel free to bring this back up but two losses is hardly a large enough sample size.

Ok, I brought this back up since we have gone 3-5 since the streak. Read the first post.

nah! what we are talking about folks? the turning point is also the second half of the game that we lost the 22 game winning streak to Boston.

Too early to think about this, we are currently what 3-4 games ahead of the 9th seed? while were what 2.5 back from first, if we win majority and the top 3 teams lose, we may even be back at number 1, who knows, this year the west is crazy.
