Round One: Horns vs Colgate

[Horn6721]

But GJ if we win this one how much confidence does that give?

Car has been the leader in bad passes resulting in turnovers. He seems like he’s asleep at the wheel

Ray Benson would agree 100%

Spectrum - blank screen, no sound….like a blackout.

That happens here sometimes. I just change the channel and come back.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

We learned we can hit 3s tonight. Also learned we can’t stop a layup. Hope Aggy isn’t watching.

 

[Walking Boss]

I’m not so worried about this game as I am for the ones that follow.

If we hold on here, they will need to play much better (more consistent) going forward, but consistent play simply doesn’t appear to be in this team’s dna

 

[LonghornCatholic]

73-59

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Nice defense!

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Layup for us

 

[HalRex]

Our D really has been the difference tonight.

 

[Horn6721]

I am feeling better

 

[Horn6721]

Athleticism counts for something

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Frustrating giving up a ton of layups but we locked down their 3s. This is March Madness so shouldn’t really expect blowout wins even against a 15 seed.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Up 20

 

[LonghornCatholic]

And another layup given up for good measure.

 

[Horn6721]

Wonder if Colgate band is still doing Horns down

 

[txhorn_et]

Ok ok. Enough already. I don’t need to hear the history of Colgate basketball.

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

I just can't describe just how good this defense for Texas is.

 

[Walking Boss]

We learned we can hit 3s tonight. Also learned we can’t stop a layup. Hope Aggy isn’t watching.

I am going to speculate that Terry and the staff decided that Colgate could not beat us with layups, only with a deluge of three’s and the defense took that away at the expense of helping down low.

 

[Vol Horn 4 Life]

81-61 Final!

 

[LonghornCatholic]

81-61 win

Does 20pt not constitute a blow out?

 

[LonghornCatholic]

Man I’m way to harsh on this team. I think Terry just secured the job.

If he didn't Tommy Lloyd might be available.

 

[BevoJoe]

Nice 20 point win to start.

 

[Giovanni Jones]

But GJ if we win this one how much confidence does that give?

I’m just a chronic worrier. But the 20-point win takes the edge off of my apprehension.

 

[Walking Boss]

I’m going to just have to learn to live with the multiple stretches of multiple possessions where they play like a sixth grade “b” team. They transition from that to a well oiled machine for stretches. Just who they are.

 

[LonghornCatholic]

I’m just a chronic worrier. But the 20-point win takes the edge off of my apprehension.

Yeah same. I had to stop expecting my son to run an 80 TD every play.

 

[BevoJoe]

Penn St. and aggy coming up to determine who the Horns play next.

 

[Horn6721]

If I cared I would try to watch next game
But I don't
And have confidence in our Horns they will win second round.
