Mississippi St (6) @ Texas (10) - 12/2/18

“the one that got away” drilled a three from the top of the key.

14 point lead at the half. McCowan sat most of the 2nd with foul trouble. Holmes/Danberry were standouts in the first half. I'm not sure Mississippi State is a top 4-5 team, but I'm starting to think Texas may not be a top 20 team with this lineup.

I agree Texas not looking like a top 20 team.

 

[SimpleDawg]

Didn't like the way we ended the half, but at least Vic has learned to put players in and out due to necessity instead of quarters. McCowan will take over in the 2nd half, and that was the intent.

At first I thought you meant AEH and I thought “I don’t remember her shooting.” Then I realized you meant the *other* one who “got away.”

 

[DallasBUFan]

I was just about to say this. In the absence of Higgs a LOT is being asked of her. She looks good but needs help.

She needs Holmes or Higgs. Both would be ideal.

 

[DaBball]

McCowan is just bullying Jatarie White. Charli has 5’11 on her. She should be scoring more

it's a good thing Charli Collier stayed in Texas................she'd be getting plenty of bench time after the wild shots she's been taking if she were playing for Geno.........

The corner-three that hit the side of the backboard was a personal favorite.

This game is hard to watch. Texas from season to season looks completely disorganized on offense. I don't see any spacing in their offense. They have the Texas coach mic'ed up and she hasn't said an inspiring comment yet. I realize Texas has some serious injury issues, and it shows. Not sure this is much of a test for MSU. Will wait to make a judgment on MSU after they play University of Oregon.

she's going to be really good but apparently Aston has no problem letting her freshmen sink or swim............

MSST 53, Texas 33, end of 3rd, MSST speed of game difficult for Texas to match.

 

[Charliebball]

do you think Chloe Bibby could play for UConn? To me she's Kyla Irwin just with more talent......

 

[SECbbfan24]

Holmes and Danberry have been impressive today

Totally different position. Bibby is a wing and sharpshooter. Kyla is a post.

Less than 2 minutes to go, huge lead and Vic still has most of his starters in. If Geno did this, not only would we have national leaders in scoring and assists, but the press would crucify him. SMH

I was thinking that myself. (but Vic is a hugger )

 

[Jmsdawg]

67 - 49, MSST, think we showed we are elite.

 

[DaBball]

Jazzmun Holmes is really impressive. Not much of a drop off, if any, from William to her.

Really no minutes from AEH, which is shocking.

 

[Rixxx]

Texas gave up +40 paint points and had 17 turnovers. Story of game.

 

[SECbbfan24]

Seems like Vic went safe and just kept the main 5 this game

MSU looked very good, obviously things to clean up. Given the loss of production from last season it will take some time.

Solid win on the road

That duo has been a nice surprise.

He's breaking in 4 new starters.. they need all the court time they can get, especially with the opponents they have coming up.

If Vic is going to play pressure defense like that for the entire game more young ladies will have to see more time. Myah Taylor was a 5 star recruit who redshirted last year yet she can't get any time in a game like today?!?!?!?!?!?!? He's gonna run Jaz into the ground if he keeps this crap up. Also why the hell is BreAmber playing ahead of Xaria and AEH?!?!?!? Vic is use to recruiting 2 and 3 star recruits...players like AEH, Wiggina, and Myah Taylor were all 5 star recruits who could have gone to a lot of top notch school...they aren't gonna ride the bench all year and wait their turn. These young ladies wanna play. The southern preacher is going to find out pretty quick what it's like to have highly recruited players on his roster...will be interesting to see how he deals with it...that's for sure.
