Can't remember a bigger home game in years where our NCAA chances were on the line like this.

I said I wasn't posting in any more game threads until next Fall, but I'm breaking it for 1 question that has me perplexed: why is tonight senior night instead of next Saturday night against UH? Hasn't senior night historically been the final home game of the season?

We are 13 point favorites. I think we win...but not feeling it will be by that much.

15 min before tipoff at the same time as the final Night of Sing, student section courtside and next to band is substantially full. Less than a dozen in the remaining student seats up high on the opposite end. Rest of arena is….not full either.

I noticed that too. My guess is Baylor wanted it to be a game we were more likely to win

Text book slow start. So frustrating. Always playing from behind.

I doubt we will make it much of a game against UH

So glad we decided to come out focused and with energy

Pretty much guaranteed the opponent will always be the harder playing team. Contrast in energy is always huge. You can always bank on that. Coaching issue.

Can't hit any decent looks at three, roster construction issue.

Very balanced scoring for us half way through the first half. 1 made three, 1 made two. Spreading it around as well. All seven players have missed at least one shot.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the time change. They moved the Houston game to 9pm a few weeks ago.

Six Baylor turnovers now.

We are doing poorly in every aspect of the game so far

24% from field, 13% from 3, 40% from line.

Nunley just said this is our best free throw percentage team in over 50 years..

Yet we're 4-10 from line so far.

We've been in the double bonus since yesterday.

Looking better last few minutes.

Maybe the Bears will finish the half & state the next half strong.

I'll try to explain. We don't do the easy things very well. We are bad at fundamentals. We are not well coached. We have given up. If we can fix those things we will be better.

It's definitely an unpopular take. But this team is absolutely poorly coached
Oldbear83
How long do you want to ignore this user?
At least we have a lead. That was far from certain not very long ago.

CSD has a lifetime contract at BU ... and it shows. You can't get away with this crap in Lexington. Similar take on Dan Hurley.

The Pokes last scored at the 3:47 mark. Our defense is playing better late in the half.

One stat in our favor: we have 2 players each with 2 fouls. The Pokes have five. Some of them might get in foul trouble in the second half. I hate that our expectations might depend on the opposing players fouling out.

We used to be able to at least look forward to the occasional good halftime showlike Red Panda. Not this year. Now we are reduced to watching our emcee yell a game of Simon Says. I guess it's all about squeezing $ out of the fans now.

Maybe our team will play the whole 20 minutes in the second half.

I am always scared for Red Panda, despite my general dislike for unicyclists ... second only to jugglers.
