Final: Louisiana 72, Texas 100

[ZoomZoom]

Best game they played all year….according to Baghdad Bob

Offense was average. No answer for Texas’ ball movement and speed.

We have the bowl game and two road conference MBB games, we’re dogs in all three. WBB have 2 home conference games, don’t know the spread. Oh boy…

Sounds like they finally played a good team.

Yeah, they're ball movement, transition, speed, was silky smooth. This is the first I see them play, so I don't know how they typically look, but man, they looked like a well oiled machine.

It’s a Chris Beard special

It’s a Chris Beard special

speaking of something wrong in one situation but ok in another:

various RP takes of the past:

“we better not play baylor ever if briles is still coach”

now

“im really looking forward to playing texas, i guess we need to wait and find out what happened with their coach”

Sorry but I didn’t see anyone choking or hitting our players. Mr. Beard clearly hasn’t been teaching them the finer aspects of domestic basketball.

It didn’t make the slightest difference in the game, but in the second half I saw the zebras totally ignore a Longhorn foul when a Texas player blasted through one of our players back. Not a near miss, a solid blast. Happened just before they decided to give Charles a technical foul for being too rough.

Agree . . . if we got a fair shake, it would have been a different game . . .

You can't be serious Vic.

Just going with the flow during the Christmas season. People here like going with the flow better and this time it is in support of my university, players and coach . . .

I’ll have to take your word for it. I wasn’t able to watch and figured it would be a blowout. Like I said before a Chris beard system will run circles around Bobby ball, refs helping or not. I’ve heard jay walker say that this team is just as good and talented as the 17 team. I don’t see it. Actually it’s not even close. It’s Jordan brown and everyone else.

We have good talent. It is coaching. If we had ball movement finding an open man like Texas and quit dribbling into trouble and playing an isolation game, we would be much improved.

I keep reading the same crap. Year 13 and we still have people that don't see the trend. EVERY time we play decent to good competition, they shoot the lights out. There is a reason for that. We have a defensive specialist coach that has very rarely fielded a good defensive team. Do people realize this?

Honest question, because obviously I didn't watch that embarrassment: How many of those shots were contested or with hand in face? Texas shot over 50% from the field and 54% from 3. How many of those shots were wide ass open?
