Apparently texas is incapable of fouling
There is some justice: they have missed some free throws lately.

Damn, that looked like an easy dunk for Vital, but he just couldn't hold on to it.

Texas is getting lots of help from the officials. orange & white instead of black & white

We've definitely had plenty of chance to put this game away in spite of one sided calls.

#10 from Texas just put his entire arm over the top of our defender and tipped the ball away... clear as day right over the top of him, but nothing was called...
