Really poor final 5 minutes of the half for the Bears on both ends of the court.


TCU 37
Baylor 31

HALF

Our offense has not been getting the ball into the paint. It's all outside.

TCU is driving to the basket and getting off boards

Getting our asses kicked. Can't keep turning the ball over and playing loser basketball.

Is there like a MUTE button for him? Someone should tell him the PBP guy is the one who talks most of the game, NOT the analyst. Dude won't STFU for 5 seconds.

And just about all of them have been open looks.

Sochan hurt, getting out rebounded, Miles going off, load of turnovers = Yikes

Brown 1-2 from the field, 2 points. O rebounds.


Mayer hit the first shot of the game -- a 3. Nothing since then from a scoring perspective (but does have 6 boards).


They've gotta figure out how to get them involved more inside or on the baseline.

How many offensive rebounds do we have?

DanaDane

They have 5 offensive boards and we have only 3.

TCU went on a 14-2 run to close it out... ****ing pathetic.

4 missed shots and 4 TOs to close it out for Baylor till that Flagler jumper.

My God, Blanks is the worst! Is he a TCU guy, I feel like he wants Baylor to lose so bad.

Using a backboard is luck? Good grief the excuses here are pathetic. We're getting outclassed by an inferior opponent

Brown, Mayer have got to be scorers for this team to maximize its potential. Brown in conference play has pretty pretty much non existent scoring wise that has to change in a hurry. TCU isn't good I don't care what their record is. They aren't an NCAA tournament team. We should be drilling this caliber of a team

Sochan on crutches. Not good.

DanaDane

Didn't see the play but the bald ref has called every foul but one against us. No calls on TCU


(NOTE: Refs aren't the problem......just a side note)
