Boy that was as of an end to a half as you can get. And Texas starts 2nd half with possession

There go the "F@ck BU" chants. Classy.

Bad sequence to end the half.

Ok, they got a basket off a fluke there.

Down only 3 on the road after not playing our best offensively for almost 15 minutes. I'll take it. We can win this in the 2nd half.

For as bad as our offensive side has been we're not in a bad position. I trust Drew to make some adjustments.
Johnny Bear

Not a good way to end the half

13 points off our 8 TOs.

Pathetic

We scored 49 in the 2nd v KU. We've got what it takes.

Clean up the TOs and keep Flag out of foul trouble and I like our chances

And a few of those were wide open layups

I love that we keep getting the "Briles was fired as Baylor HC in 2016 after his sexual assault investigation" in the ESPN crawl.

The gift that keeps giving 3 coaches later.

Took them 20 years to shut up about the murder scandal, so not surprised.

I think we are in good shape. We didnt play that well and are still on the game.
boognish_bear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yep…. Feels like they controlled the entire first half… But only have a three point lead. We are in good shape.
Iron Claw
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Halftime talkers acting like we have no chance although down by only 3.

Well after those numbnuts determined the current generation had no idea who Dave Bliss was, they lost their hard on about it.

2 more FT's. Baby steps, I guess

It's tough to play 2 games one day apart, especially after the 1st one is a great win. We know BU will be playing hard in the 2nd half, though.
BaylorJoy
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That was a foul but okay
vanillabryce

Contrast Flagler's last foul vs the non-calls for MM just then

Terrible officials. How many Texas fouls have they ignored?
Johnny Bear

….. and we get hammered twice at the rim. No call.
