Offense and defense have flat out gone LAZY in the 2nd half.

Take the ball inside and get back on defense!

Back in the day, cant even imagine how many gassers a coach would make this team run the next day.

We're shooting almost 80 percent from the line tonight. We're never going to be much better than that.

Who is the S&C coach? These guys are not in shape.

I can't name a time where a Baylor player not named Jared Butler, Davion Mitchell, or James Akinjo was a good FT shooter.

George has gone cold. That's not good.
Seems like all our drives are from the right to the rim, where a TCU defender fouls us.

Make a few 3's and some and-1's and that stops but as long as we miss free throws and make predictable runs we will have a rough time.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier

Lid on bucket for us. We are too tired to keep doing press

Why the **** do we keep pressing?

It's an automatic layup/dunk.

He did. Terrible call and Fran is out of his mind with his comment on that.

You can't call that BS cheap **** on Josh O and NOT call it for Flag. Second time he's gotten fouled on the shot and not gotten the call

I'm guessing not the same one that built Davion, Vital, Butler.
