Non Con basketball is such a weird one.

Tech knocked off Duke tonight.

Not that surprising to me. That Tech team is good. We just played an A game vs them and played a D vs Houston

Yep, we played great against Tech.

Houston took it to us early due to our reckless passing/ball handling that led to 9 turnovers and 14 points off those turnovers for the bad guys early in 1st half. I remember seeing a graphic that showed those 14 points off turnovers and 6 second chance points for Houston. Our column had 0 and 0.

We made some defensive adjustments and starting jumping the ball handler out top which slowed them down significantly, but we never could get that 10-12 pt run after we got it to around 10 point deficit.

You add that to the ridiculous(uncharacteristic) shooting percentages for Houston and you get that result.

Do I think they are a much better team than us? No... But they are definitely more aggressive and seasoned than our bunch.

Hopefully by the end of SEC play our kids will have learned how to win these physical type games.

He’s been pretty good at FTs up until then. If he’s able to get to the line like that consistently for the rest of the year, we are going to win a lot of games

Kansas ranked ahead of us while only beating UT.

Of course they are.

Brazeale is the key. If he's mentally 'on' and not sitting due to foul trouble, we are pretty darn good.
If Acuff has to carry most of the load himself, it's going to be a little harder.

There's no way Pringle is healthy. Dude moves like Phoenix era Shaq.

Acuff is the best player we've had in a loooong time.

Just from the beginning of the year to right now he has improved so much.

Looks like a pro, plays like a pro.

He knows he can score on anyone but he always makes the right pass when he could have taken the shot.

Need Thomas to become less selfish and he will improve. Yes he can score, but he takes a lot of contested shots that aren't what we need.

Come to think of it, we need him to be like Moses Moody was for us. He's got a similar size and skill set. Good shooter that isn't the most explosive player on the court. Can make a tough shot if necessary, but if he can learn to put the team first he will be more lucrative to NBA teams.

I wish Thomas would work into his mid-range game more. It's so good but he barely uses it.
