It's simply just hard to win on the road. Teams play so much better at home, and the refs cater to that almost always (we don't seem to get that benefit for whatever reason though...). I was surprised that Herbert wasn't called for his 5th foul when he dove in the stands and made contact with someone in the crowd, but they got him when the wet spot tripped up the OM player and he was the closest one around. Herbert and Dazon were difference makers last night but they just couldn't stay on the floor for any period of time due to fouls.
Back to Sexton though, I think he's very aware of the teams success while he's been out and was anxious to get back in and help out. If we hadn't had the foul troubles last night I think he'd have played significantly less minutes. To me, he looked hesitant with the injury in a similar fashion that Braxton did the first few games he came back. Hopefully we can finish with a winning record in the conference and have everyone gelling as we head into the SEC tournament and beyond. We have in to way played our best game yet and when we do, it will be a ton of fun to watch.
