We need to flop to sell the moving screen. One of theirs, White I think, keeps shuffling when she sets the screen at the top of the key.

I'll take this one point lead at the end of 4th myself. I know a lot of you have predicted a 20 -30 point win here but one will suit me. Texas is hungry.

The first few games were gimmees with brown and cox. This is the type of game where a senior vs a freshmen point guard can make a big difference.
