YOU ARE AWESOME MY FRIEND
will certainly start watching this after the Texans game

That Iowa St. loss on the road doesn't look as bad
considering that they’re currently destroying Aggie @ Reed

WOW A&M is bad

White had a triple double the hard way
10 points, 18 reb, 10 assists

J'Covan is starting
Hopefully he is around 100%.
Same line-up as the past rice and iowa state game.
Hopefully kabongo, finally starts to live to his ranking. If not he needs to be benched in favor of julien lewis
We could also use a chapman double-double

Can’t we talk about TGOD, DGB, Super Mario, or QB problems? OK, OK, OK—-hoops it is!
Myck gets a layup. 4-3 OSU
Myck has all 3 Texas pts
12-10 Texas. Timeout OSU with 8:50 left in the half
Texas 5-18 shooting, 0-5 3pt
OSU 4-11 shooting, 1-3 3pt
Are we the only ones here?

itd be nice if the guys started driving to the hoop more
some easy layups would do wonders for shooting confidence. its hard to keep watching them clang long jumpers.
Thank God for JCB.

Sweet, thanks.

J'Covan is clearly
Not 100%.
Awful first half. Okie State is probably the worst team in the conference. 7-33 from the field, 0-9 from 3.
by Mclovin1035 on Jan 7, 2012 6:59 PM CST via mobile reply actions
Tech is the wort team in the conference
A&M is also probably worse than OSU. OSU at least defends well.
The Horns have shot the ball well this year. I feel pretty good things will straighten out in the second half.

We're playing hard but struggling from the field
as I type Kabongo just airballed a three LOL
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:26 PM CST up reply actions
hard to watch us shoot, 0-12 from three
maybe, just maybe we should take it inside
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:28 PM CST reply actions
Barnes has to be pissed, OSU got a 3 in transition because Lewis threw up a brick from long range
that’s now 0-13 from three. Unreal

Woo-hoo Texans!

gotta try something else
at least if we continuously try to drive it inside, we can foul some of those guys out
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:38 PM CST up reply actions
we are absolutely horrible
and we look like we don’t even care
Don't equate missing shots to not trying hard
from what I’ve seen so far our effort has been fantastic
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:38 PM CST up reply actions
you're right
I always need to watch the games a 2nd time to get a good read on how we actually played. The 1st time I just want everything to go right
Time for those of us following your updates
On a phone so can’t watch link?

UT already in the bonus with 8:39 left
be aggressive, make our freebies, hope that JCB three will ignite our shooters, and we will escape with a W

Listening on the radio
Craig Way just went crazy when JCB hit that shot.

OSU 5-11 from three, UT 1-14 from three
and that’s why we’re not up by double digits
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:42 PM CST reply actions
OSU finally misses a three
and they’ve been bad shots but have been going in
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:44 PM CST reply actions
I criticized Myck Kabongo for always
going towards the rim and trying to get fouled earlier in the season, but now I’m cool with it. It’s better than nothing. It’s better than just standing behind the 3-point line and just passing it back and forth.

off the drive and dish from Kabongo (can never tell with this stream though)

Kabongo needs to develop a mid-range jumper.

Or a teardrop.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
We said that about Balbay his entire career and it never happened
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:52 PM CST up reply actions
I know. Hopefully it's a different story with Kabongo.
He’s got to be teachable.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
meh
I have been studying play by play data lately, and pretty much no one in the college game is hitting better than 40% from mid range. It isn’t a very good shot. Kabongo needs to get better on free throws.

not the most efficient shot but all stars need to be equipped with it
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 7:56 PM CST up reply actions
it is an NBA shot
Mid range shots are more important with a 24 second shot clock.

He just needs to be able to score somehow.
He can’t score.

I'm also watching the Rockets/Thunder game on TV
KD just threw down a monster dunk

Bench points, 28-3 favoring UT
if this bench stays with us we’ll be a really really good team in the next few years

Fuck, Lewis travels due to a halfcourt trap
OSU has four players with 4 fouls! Not sure if I’ve ever seen this before.

happened in that game in Hoosiers

YES!!!
That will help his confidence.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
We need to start going to games, though, guys.
We need to go cheer on our team in person.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
I would love to
Only it is a little hard when I live in Ohio. You guys in Austin make me envious.

that’s right, we can actually watch it! On TV!

WOOT!
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
We had a pretty good turnout tonight, though.
I guess because it’s Saturday.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
That little shit Page makes a wild three preventing us from getting a double digit win
58-49 final score, UT wins! \m/
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 8:08 PM CST reply actions
this was one of the worst games of basketball ive seen in my life
but we got the win, so it’s all good
Great win. I'm surprised we got it, actually.
But Okie State isn’t a deep team and they missed A LOT of shots.
"Hey, don't y'all think that's beautiful right there? That crystal is SO beautiful. And it's coming home to Texas." - Vince Young
we shot waaay worse than them
30% from the field, 17% from 3 to their 40% from the field and 38% from 3
turnovers and rebounds
We got a lot more shots. Good game to write about for Inside The Numbers.

We took 13 more shots and 18 more free throws
no one in the starting lineup had more than 1 turnover

A home loss vs a team ranked in the 80s in Pomeroy
would be embarrassing
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 8:17 PM CST up reply actions
Not sure what Julien Lewis is doing leading the team in shots
let’s hope that never happens again. 4-15 from the field. Sheldon with an ugly 2-11 as well.
J’Bongo with only 13 shots combined but 14 FT attempts
by goingforthecorner on Jan 7, 2012 8:10 PM CST reply actions
yeah lewis shoots entirely too much
him, mcclellan and kabongo struggle with when to shoot
Chapman back to his old ways
Taking ill-advised jumpers and letting every rebound hit off his hands.
