Penn State Basketball Roundtable: NIT Tipoff Reactions

Another week, another roundtable. Penn State did what most of us thought would happen, but in the wrong order. The Nittany Lions blew a 21-point lead in the first game of the series, then beat their second opponent by 21 points exactly. Here are the staff’s thoughts.

Q: Old habits creeped back in their loss to Ole Miss. What went wrong?

Clay: I do want to believe this team is different. But that collapse was so familiar. Bad ball handling. Missed free throws. Stagnant offense. Bad play design. Lack of composure. It was like an awful flashback.
