Texas loses to K-State, not surprised.

After I saw the way Texas slipped by A&M in OT on Saturday, I knew it Texas played the same way at K-State that they would probably be delt their first loss. Free Throw shooting will put you in a hole and can lose you a game on a poor shooting night. Especially when you are on the road in the Big 12. With a 2 day turnaround between games, Texas' shooting had to rebound if they wanted to leave K-State with a win.

What can Barnes do to help this teams free throw shooting? Poor free throw shooting will not win you a Big 12 Tourney or NCAA Championship. Tournover and defensive rebound issues will not help either. Come March, Barnes and the Longhorns need to solve these issues if they want to win the Big 12 Tourney and have a shot at the NCAA Tourney Finals.

Sorry, not to be that guy, but I can’t ignore all those mistakes.

I think w/ more concentration, the free throw shooting can increase slightly. However, don’t expect miracles. The defensive rebounding can be fixed w/ practice and hustle (and rest).

umm

looses isn’t correct either, It’s losses, go to dictionary.com. I’ll add the missing ‘s’ when I get home. loses isn’t as bad as looses.

I think this is what they were talking about:

“Free Throw shooting will put you in a hole and can loose you a game”
