I know Texas' record sucks but they have some really good players on that squad. I'd bet they are more of a contender the next few years.

I really think in that situation we should have fouled and sent them to the line. That would have done three things:

1. Eliminated a chase for a three pointer or 3 point play.
2. Maximum of tied the game.
3. Given our team the last shot.

I know a free throw is the highest possession shot on the floor but we could foul their worst free throw shooter. I just want to ball in my hands to control the final possession.

That final offensive play fox drew up was a thing up beauty. So good we almost hit the rim before the clock ran out. Can't expect more than that.

I agree, if only Ogbeide would have let go a split second earlier.

We know that wasn't part of the planned play, but Derek almost saved us from fox.

I agree, fox drew up a good play and out coach Shaka all game long.

I'm sorry. What?

Texas probably scores a basket in that situation 20-25% of the time. They'll make both free throws way more often than that.

They're also one of the worst 3-point shooting teams in the nation.

If you want to foul in that situation with 30 seconds left, it's still dumb, but more understandable.

Doing it with 8 seconds left on the clock would have been completely asinine.

Your sarcasm is giving me hope you finally admit fox isn't close to a great coach.

I would just prefer to put their worst free throw shooter on the line in a do or die situation and take away any chance of losing by a 3 pointer or 3 point play. Then I control the end of regulations. It's either a win or OT and we were out playing them the entire second half.

On another note, our RPI is gettin a solid boost today. To bad Ole Miss couldn't close the door.

I'm bidding a job up in Louisville. I may slip over. One of my subs has tickets. You and I may be the only 2 Dawgs there.

Was in Louisville this past weekend. Went to Sergio's World of Beer. Had over 1700 types of beer in bottles, another 43 on tap. Was a good time.

Sorry no service at rupp and I'm just not a picture guy. I was in 232 which is upper sideline. I had a good time just fricking hate how that went. Would rather do like we did against Kansas and just stay behind by 10 all game. Can't stomach this shite.

On another note, anyone get why crump can't play yet? It takes time, he isn't ready.

And on another another note, Maten and ogbeide will be one of the best front courts in the COUNTRY next year

Both of them played very well inside against some good players whilst getting hacked the whole time

My phone worked fine in there.
