Texas at Tennessee (merged thread)

[huskeynut]

If I was Texas, I would be very worried on 1/15. UConn comes to town and the Big Dog likes steak!

It was weird, during the time of the fight, the Texas player inbounded the ball with her foot almost 3/4 over the line. I thought she was being called for
line violation which should have made a bottom ten reel.

I thought the same thing. I think it got missed because officials were eyeing the spat at half court.

Wow. By far the most exciting part of that first half was when a fight almost broke out.

Too bad, they didn't ..otherwise will have more fun

 

[CTtoSanDiego]

NOT. IMPRESSED. AT. ALL!

 

[Ctpaul0825]

Halftime stats UT 3 assists, UT 4 assists, butt ugly.

And saved ESPN 2 for skeet shooting.

Skeet shooting would have been better than this mess.

Anyone who witnessed the blistering pace of the UConn-ND game, the crisp passing and the deadly shooting of both teams, and now witnesses this pathetic "abortion" between two reportedly ranked teams must feel they're watching a different sport. I neither know nor care who wins (I suspect Texas will), but this is painful to watch...I'm tuning out.

I thought the same thing. I think it got missed because officials were eyeing the spat at half court.

The official on the baseline did call it, but the fight at midcourt then took precedence with what I believe were offsetting technical fouls.

Texas is #2? Are you kidding me. Notre Dame and UCLA are better. A lot better.

I would add Nevada to that list also.

Just repackage as rugby.

I just checked the scoreboard and West Virginia beat Coppin State 101-43. When was the last time a Mike Carey team scored over 100. Wow!!!

I wonder if Mike packs more than 1 shirt these days.

 

[UConn82]

I can't watch any more.

 

[huskeynut]

And as we start the second half, no improvement. These teams don't know how to run offense.

 

[JordyG]

Texas three trips down in the 3rd, one rim.

 

[JordyG]

Make that 4.

 

[JordyG]

When Texas comes down on the break they ignore everything but the basket.

 

[EricLA]

Halftime stats UT 3 assists, UT 4 assists, butt ugly.

I was going to point that out too. This game is setting WCBB back 20 years. All 1 on 1 play. Any kid considering Tenn or Texas needs to watch this this game and think twice about the kind of basketball those to programs teach. Horrible.

 

[DefenseBB]

While I want to say something positive about this game, the best I can say is this looks exactly like two teams whose coaches can’t coach offense. This is total street ball with no offensive flow and shots just being thrown up. Ugly....

 

[hugefan]

They may have some HS AAs but neither team has any college AAs

 

[HoopsHoppy]

My mother told me “if you’ve got nothing good to say, say nothing”

I’m signing off

 

[noirwestern]

Watching players on the same team run into each other trying to run plays, rebounding, inbounding - keeps bringing the butt fumble to mind.

 

[HuskyFan1125]

I don't understand why Mercedes Russell isn't the first option every time down the floor. The ball should go inside. She is a willing passer out of the post.

 

[bballnut90]

I don’t know if any screens have been set today. Everything is one on one and no one has looked for each other.

4:39 of the 3rd Texas' first pass to the wing on the break.
