[txhorn_et]

Purdue gonna be disappointed once the Horns take control and put them away!!

 

[Chop]

And we take the lead!!!!!

41-40 Horns.

 

[Chop]

Jones!!!

3!!!

44-42 us

 

[LonghornCatholic]

We need to clank more threes.

 

[NJlonghorn]

I’m on a flight so following from ESPN app. I see that the fouls differential is 21-11. Are we getting hosed, or are we just paying for overly tight D?

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Bad time to go all pathetic again.

Cant handle their bigs.

 

[NJlonghorn]

Cant handle their bigs.

Yeah, I guess that’s not surprising. It isn’t exactly our strength.

 

[Chop]

Nice work Ramey!

tie game

 

[LonghornCatholic]

We clank a three, they hit a three.

 

[Sangre Naranjada]

Well they have a 7'4" guy who is not a total stiff. Backed up by a 6 ft 10 in guy who is really good.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Game over

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Losing ground with Edy on the bench. Game over boys.

Not yet. A lot of time left. And we can get streaky.

 

[Statalyzer]

Well they have a 7'4" guy who is not a total stiff

Tough matchup for just about anybody there. Yeah, he only has about a 7 inch vertical, but he moves without the ball well, use his size effectively, and can hit his FTs.

 

[mchammer]

They have a big strong team that we haven’t matched up well all season. This the best I’ve seen Texas play against a team like this.

 

[VYFan]

Purdue is really good. Better than I expected.

 

[Chop]

They were #1 for at least a few weeks earlier this year.

 

[Giovanni Jones]

I can feel the wheels wobbling.

 

[mchammer]

Williams make a hard shot.

 

[Chop]

Williams does sort of mimic Olajuwon’s dream shake move.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Can’t win games with defense alone. At some you gotta hit a shot or two. With our defense, it’s scary how good we would be if we had half a shooter.

 

[Horns11]

This game has several interesting mini-stories within, but it basically comes down to:

1. We don't have anything to counter Williams.
2. Allen wasn't put in a position to succeed.
3. That damn 20-0 run.
4. We needed the depth of the bigs that transfered out (Hamm, Hepa, Baker, Mitchell, whoever else) to be able to compete and rack up fouls at the same time.

 

[WorsterMan]

65-60 PU < 4 min.... getting close to nut cutin' time

 

[Statalyzer]

Not looking like great odds, but we're staying in striking distance. We seem just a tad short on firepower though.

 

[Giovanni Jones]

Out of range now.

 

[Chop]

Four point play by Febres. 6 pt game.

 

[WorsterMan]

3 poinrter gives Horns life 66-72..

 

[WorsterMan]

68-73...
