2 up and 2 down, not that big of a deal. The problem is the tendency of the program to play down to the competition. In other words, you can't count on this team beating the low end or middle of the pack A10. And, 60 percent winning percentage in the non-conference will not result in NCAA tournament bid.
UD's approach seems to be "hope like heck" you have more points than the other team at the final buzzer. Currently lacking focus and discipline. Going up to weak, missing free-throws, not boxing out.
We need UCLA to lose, se we can get another chance at strong RPI opponent. That would help.
