Could have gone up by 12 or 13 after Mayer's steal but the throwaway and now it's back to 5.

He's still careless with the ball a lot of times

We just have to make it so lopsided that he is irrelevant.

Pretty good start!
DanaDane

Good thing is that he'll likely make it up eventually with a couple of deep bombs or successful drives to the basket. Both teams shooting it well so far.

I have no idea how he drew both games - he must be highly rated by the B12, despite what we rightly think about him
Texas paid extra to get him!

Mitchell humming...need to avoid turnovers tonight especially - not much room for error tonight

Is there any way to ignore an administrator's posts so they don't appear for you? No offense. I like Gobears but those stats kill my screen because they're humongous. They're probably great for everyone else so I'm not suggesting to not post them. I'm just trying to figure out how to rid my screen of them.

They are driving the lane too easily on us. C'mon guys.

There's GOOD MAYER!!!!!!

I'll gladly trade 3s for 2s for the rest of the game

Last night we had two teams shooting under 30%, tonight these 2 are both over 55% so far. Good offense, bad defense, both, neither, nor.......who cares as long as we stay in the lead!!!!!!!

I knew Jones was good, but he's even better than I thought.

Higgins must be an atheist or catholic.

The no calls after Vitals monster rebound and Mayer getting body checked are annoying. Seems like those are the only ones tho

Please sit Flagler

Flagler struggling tonight, Butler with 3 fouls. We can do it

We are shooting 57%
7-13 54% from 3

Texas shooting 50%
5-12 from 3 42%

We are out rebounding them 13-12 which is big because Texas rebounds well. We have 8 turnovers to their 6.

Up 7 at the half. I'll take it. Butler has to be smart this second half

Big problem
Is Butler has three fouls and Flo has two.

Am I missing something on the officiated here? I was going to ask why is the officiated so ridiculous this game. Its been terrible. Texas to their credit is playing one of their best games of the year so far but we have been about 15 pts better. 4 straight hacks on a shot just not called. Its insane.

No. Higgins is always coiffed by his stylist before the game.
