Baylor (1) @ Texas (12) - 2/04/19

[DeeHusky]

Aston has the talent to match, its the coaching that’s not up to speed

 

[Undercovervol]

Besides Baylor's terrible turnovers, great play so far.

 

[Vowelguy]

I don't think this game will be close. Baylor by 15-20.

You mean at half, right?

 

[Undercovervol]

Aston has the talent too match, its the coaching that’s not up to speed

Karen Aston is the second most overrated coach in the country, behind...Warlick. (If you consider how much talent both get.)

 

[Fightin Choke]

I think that Baylor only has the advantage in the back court, the front court, the bench, and coaching. But Texas is better besides that.

Which I think means that they have the home court advantage tonight.

Joyner Holmes is so outta control.

 

[Undercovervol]

Now texas with terrible turnovers.

 

[Fightin Choke]

Joyner Holmes is so outta control.

She has been SOOO disappointing.

 

[DeeHusky]

Sutton has improved

 

[Undercovervol]

Only reason Texas in this game is 3 point shooting.

 

[Shades]

Baylor only up by 7 at the half, so it’s not a totally hopeless situation for Texas.

What are you thinking of Collier?

 

[eebmg]

Texas will stay close to Baylor in the first half and then Baylor will put the jets on. I'm ready for the fly by hand shake from Mulkey and Aston.

Good MMA match

What are you thinking of Collier?

She looks lost on the court, floating around the perimeter and not posting up. I think Aston commented on this during "Wired up" segment.

 

[DeeHusky]

Lauren Cox was the #1 recruit, Joyner Holmes was #2 in their class. Neither, to me, are playing like it. Crystal Dangerfield at #3, Ionescu at #4 and Jackie Young at #11 are all playing better.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Texas 7-10 from 3

Not sure if that percentage holds

 

[Plebe]

Scary that Texas is shooting at about DOUBLE their average 3FG% at 70% and they are still down by 7. That tells you what the actual differential is between these two teams.

 

[Bear11]

If Texas shot their normal percentage from 3 and Baylor converted a couple of the breaks they botched we are looking at a 20 point game. I won't say no to a 7 point lead at the half though.

 

[Plebe]

There's a different edge this year, particularly defensively. They also have great guard play to compliment Cox/Brown. They aren't one dimensional and have many ways to attack.

But haven’t we heard “this year is different” year after year as well?

Seriously though, I’d really like to see a Baylor-ND matchup at the Final Four, it both can get that far.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Moon Ursin is so under rated, I like her game

12 points 3 rebounds 2 steals in the first half

 

[Undercovervol]

But haven’t we heard “this year is different” year after year as well?

Ugh, If I can't cheer for my Lady Vols, please give me Baylor as consolation! Lol

 

[Fightin Choke]

As an impartial observer, you have nothing to worry about tonight, as Baylor looks so much better; Texas cannot possibly threaten your Bears tonight. And Moon looks great! I know that people were uncertain of her because of the level of her high school competition, but she is developing very nicely.

Cox is a unique point forward player that impacts the game on both ends. She may not be as dominating as other #1 players, but she's definitely playing better than Holmes this game. I love Jackie Young's game.

 

[Undercovervol]

Lauren Cox hits a three!!!!!

Seems like her medical condition holds her back at times but when she is on, she is great.

I like Cox. I don't consider her disappointing. I wish she were on the Irish!
