It's The Seniors, Stupid

Complete Coverage >


Texas has seen Baylor twice already this season and suffered losses both times. Baylor won in Austin 80-77 OT in January and embarassed the Longhorns, 92-77, in Waco just last Saturday.

People always say that it is difficult to beat a team three times in the same season. I've never understood that. If you already won twice against a given team, haven't you proven two times that you are probably the better team and likely to be the better team no matter how many times you play. Anyway, I hope that old drop of sports wisdom comes true tonight, and Texas gets revenge against Scott Drew and the Baylor Bears.

Quickly and once again, here's how the 'Horns would do it--

1) On defense, cut off dribble penetration, stick to shooters like Tweety Carter and LaceDarius Dunn, box out and keep Quincy Acy, Anthony Jones, and Ekpe Udoh off the offensive glass, and get back in transition.

2) On offense, attack the weak Baylor zone from the high post, run the offense through Damion James, and don't waste possessions with turnovers or quick shots.

Hook 'em

doubt it, he has better players than TX this year

i have no idea how he got Udoh to transfer from Mich to Baylor but that was a major coup.
Dunn, Carter, Acey, Udoh – all elite talents…and playing at Baylor…unbelievable

Disagree

started strong but disappeared towards the end of the first half

then did bad SHOOTING in the 2nd half. still had solid defense and some good assists

kinda forgot he started hot

i just hate his affinity for the midrange jumper…i know he’s open, but he’s not efficient with that shot but he keeps shooting, even when we have no rebounders present…he should drive to the bucket.

So what are we now, a 7 seed?

I don’t see how a loss to a good team (projected as a 4 seed) will knock us down a seed.

Yea 7 Seed

All 3 freshman should come back

It will be nice to have them in the program for the summer. Looking forward to next season….and I hate that

Should...but will they

I don’t see any of them staying at TX if they get a 1st round grade…they don’t exactly seem to be loving their time on the court at TX

by feltgod on Mar 11, 2010 10:47 PM CST up reply actions  

Yea that worries me

But will they get a first round grade?

Looking forward...

are we matching up with a mid major champion in round 1?

should have seen this coming...

 but I thought we’d play well and avenge butt-whipping. Tough to admit, but Baylor is just better team.

Baylor is underrated

Only teams with a dominant post will give them trouble. I can’t think of a team with a dominant post…Maybe Kentucky…and there’s Kansaas…best team in the country by a mile.

by feltgod on Mar 11, 2010 10:51 PM CST up reply actions  

and they lost to the pokes...

in Stillwater, just like they did on their last title run. Bitter sweet for Bill Self.

Pretty safe to say we didn't get enough from Johnson or Hamilton

Gary only took 6 shots and missed 5 of them. Baylor’s zone defense is frustrating, but I saw him on the perimeter way too often.

Brown finally plays in the 2nd half and jacks up 7 threes, missing 6.

Our depth is completely gone. 10 points from the bench total, meaning we’ll heavily rely on the starters. Problem with that is one of our starters is Mason.

At this point, I think the reasonable potential of this team is reaching the 2nd round. Just getting to the Sweet 16 should be considered a major overachievement.

How sad is it that going into our first tournament game, we still have no clue how our head coach is going to distribute minutes to the most important position on the court (point guard)? I hope for J’Covan’s sake that he has some good practices from now till next week and can prove to Barnes that he’s willing to play on both sides of the court.

Houston Yates > UT b ball right now

and yes, im being serious

"We'll be baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!"

by greenspointexas on Mar 11, 2010 11:01 PM CST reply actions  

I will never stick up for another one of your posts again.

This is an absolutely ludicrous statement. Yates has one guy going to a big time D-1 school and that’s if you can call Providence College big time.

by 2Cor12:9 on Mar 11, 2010 11:07 PM CST up reply actions  

yates would dominate us right now

they have beaten 12 of their opponents by 30 or more points, and just put up 8 points in 40 seconds against the colony in the state semifinals

they are the consensus #1 high school b ball team in the nation, and ya, theyd give us a run for our money for sure

"We'll be baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaack!"

by greenspointexas on Mar 11, 2010 11:09 PM CST up reply actions  

So what they're the #1 team in the nation?

So was Findley Prep where Bradley played last year. Yates has no one near his caliber. And you forgot to mention they beat one team by 99 points. Who cares about the Colony? They’ve stunk since Bracey Wright and Darren Williams left.

by 2Cor12:9 on Mar 11, 2010 11:12 PM CST up reply actions  

You're crazy. Yates has four of their starters 6'2 or below.

Here’s a brilliant idea for how to break their press: Throw in to Dex at half court.
