50 fouls tonight so far. Just freaking ridiculous and killing basketball on the college level.


Refs killed the fun by calling a foul every possession. It's an exhibition, let them play. There was no flow to the game because there was a whistle every 30 seconds.

Isaiah Joe's numbers are unreal. Hitting 60% is hard to do in the gym by yourself.

Interesting that in this latest game he only attempted 3 point shots. Settling into a role already.

Pio, make a prediction for the line on Friday night

Texas is currently a 25 point favorite against eastern Illinois tomorrow night.

Texas wins 71-59

They shot 50% from the floor, had 16 TOs

They really didn't play that great. Only outscored Eastern Illinois by 2 in the 2nd half.

Eastern Illinois is not a good team.

Eastern Illinois is supposed to be terrible. #302 in KenPom, and something like the 7th best team with "Illinois" in its name. The spread is Texas -23.5.

Yep, it wasn't a good performance from Texas. Hopefully that carries over to the Friday game. They turned the ball over a lot last night so hopefully that is something we can exploit.

I like our size of our guards against them.

Gafford foul trouble and ft shooting scares me.

Chaney's turnover rate scares me too.
