Do any of y'all get ESPNU in HD? I only get it in standard def via Grande. I don't think they even offer an HD option.

Grande is the only provider I know of in any Texas city (I've lived in 4 in the last 6 years) that doesn't offer ESPNU in HD.
Yep. It's ridiculous.

good rebound by Acuil on my summer pick-up basketball buddy Thomas Brandsma. He's 6-5 on his tippy toes... Tough match-up there against big Jo.

Jake Lindsey's 3 pointers are ugly!

that's why TJ doesn't play more. Way too sketchy on defense.

Baylor desperately needs a score here.

What's up with these fouls????
riflebear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Some of these fouls this half have been head scratchers.

Up 9 Baylor had a fast break layup to go up 11 but we missed. Tech on a 5-0 run since. BU only up 4 now. We have to close teams out.

Maston w/ a nice fake to draw the foul. Motley's 4 foot jump hook miss was big but at least we got a stop.

50-44 Baylor

Refs determined to keep this close. Each game is so inconsistent w/ how it's called. They let them battle one game, then you can't breathe on someone the next.

Baylor w/ 9 fouls in 7:30 minutes. Ugly
