In a way I'm glad they're going up against bad refs and thuggery. They needed some adversity.


Agreed

It ain't gonna get called on the inside for sure. We're getting racked.

They gave us one there. Flagler is the one who pushed off. It's about time the called one wrong for the other side.

Dang, surprise Flagler wasn't flagged.
DanaDane
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Damn it. Every time we get a chance to run it out, we get fumble fingers with the ball.
DanaDane

Ok, I hate blaming refs for anything but has Bald Bull called 1 single foul against the Horns?
DanaDane
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Would someone get Flagler some ***** spray for his shoes or clean the damn court. He looks like he's at Wet N Wild.
DanaDane

Another chane to go up double digits and another TO. Sheesh.

Dang Mayer was lost on that three
DanaDane
How long do you want to ignore this user?
4 chances to extend the lead to double digits and we get 3 TO's and a missed shot. Horns of course nail the 3 and it's back to 6 points.
DanaDane

Jones is a 32% shooter from 3 this year. He's hit 4 of 8 tonight.

Mayer is so lackadaisical on covering the 3. He doesn't step out and challenge

We need to put Teague on Jones because of his size advantage

Something tells me we're gonna have to have one of these three step up as scorers in the final 7 minutes: Flagler, Mayer or Teague.

How do we keep ending up with switchoffs that leaves Mitchell guarding 6-10 Sims?

Wait... JTT had his hands raised up and wasn't moving... isn't that a no foul due to verticality and Texas some how gets another one for free?

Horns haven't shot the ball like this all season and probably won't again.
