NCAA Tourney MBB v Texas Game Thread
PUT EM IN A BODY BAG
especially when we are shooting very well
on my birthday......foot on throat please!!!!!
Michigan State who?
if we were playing like this against say Wichita or Louisville, but this is a poor shooting Texas team. Let's just win and move on
This is pretty much going exactly as predicted on the front page.
Awesome offensive display, unlike the first two games of the day.
From the RCMB: "Maybe this will result in a brawl with suspensions to multiple key players!"
You are watching the game, participating in this thread AND following RCMB?
I'm enjoying this, to say the least.
we've got 5 fouls to give...if texas gets a last possession this half...LOL
Texas up to 40% shooting, UM at 58%.
Texas upping rebounding a bit, now leading by 1, thats fine.
Only 2 turnovers, 1 foul.
LOL we can foul every second in the remaining part of this half and still not go to bonus.
EDIT - welp, not on an actual shot sigh (bang head)
horribly played
GLENN! Why the fuck are you not fouling on that drive?
played well as a team, totally unselfish on offense. Great D, low fouls/turnovers. Dumb to not take another foul or two. Otherwise, great half
Well that first half was quick and pretty fun save for the last 20 seconds.
...is getting the "at-Illinois" version today.
Irvin with a brain fart there. Foul him before the drive.
Would've liked to have kept it up at 15-18 point lead. Bad last couple possessions and a dumb play by Glenn keeps at a manageable 13.
That was good - I'll have another 20, just like the first please!
Ugly last 15 seconds.
but hard to find anything to complain about. That was an offensive clinic
Only up 13? UNACCEPTABLEZ! /s
They're giving the Texas big boys oxygen at the half. We ran the hell out of them.
I'll take it. Up 13 at half. Shooting well. No foul trouble AT ALL. Good 1st half, need to keep it up for the 2nd.
Play to win, but you have to win to play
Well we let them chip into it a little bit at the end, but tough to complain too much. Just gotta keep executing offensively and keep grabbing defensive rebounds.
"Play to win" . Yeah JB
Herm Edwards being channeled...
We gave up 14 points through 15 minutes and then 16 over the next five. That's a little frustrating.
To be fair, 14 points in 15 minutes is a pretty high bar. Texas hit back to back threes to start that final five ball rolling, and they won't do that often. We've limited their offensive boards for the most part, and that's big.
Texas beat North Carolina and Kansas. They are not going to be horrid all game.
They got the bad version of UNC (the one that lost to Belmont at home) and Kansas turned around and murdered Texas 2nd time around.
Had a feeling Beilein would clown Barnes today, as Ira Weintraub pointed out yesterday.
What was the biggest lead that half? 16?
Think it got out to 17 at some point.
before the Texas 3
