    Keep your cool and don't throw a punch. TCU is begging for a fight in this game because they're getting embarrassed.

    Lattimore has a lot of offensive game but is still figuring things out. She's very smooth with the ball in her hands and off the bounce. I bet she's really good next season.

    TCU has been taking shots to the head all game. Matharu was elbowed in the face a couple times. That's why she was so energized in the 1st half.
  4. texasstrong12
    That looked bad. It has to be a concussion the way she was acting.

    You saw the future of Texas WBB at the end of this half. Harmon (FR) Matharu (JR) Holle (So) Moore (FR) Lattimore (FR) Scary.

    I'm not surprised by this. This is like a NCAA play in game for TCU. If they didn't show up for this game something would be really wrong.

    I laughed but there will still be lots teams in the NCAA tournament that fit at at least two of those categories. First team that comes to mind is Illinois. They're 155th in TO% and 133rd in defensive free throw rate. So they turn the ball over a lot and foul a good bit. That's a Sweet 16 or beyond caliber team. It's interesting based on this discussion because they have one of the best bigs in the country in Cockburn. But I would consider Illinois to be a great match up for Texas.

    In terms of match ups I would say we want 1) Teams that turn the ball over as that's probably our biggest strength as a team. I.e. forcing turnovers. It also helps us score. 2) Teams that foul. Sometimes we have a tough time getting to the line and we are a good FT shooting team. 3) Teams that aren't super athletic. This gets back to the point above about all those long and athletic Tech guards/wings.

    This is an interesting discussion. A team like Tech scares me more than a team with a good big. To me, the long and athletic guards/wings are a worse match up than a team with a legit big. I think Beard has always played small at the 5 and knows how to solve that problem in other ways. It's the "size" at guard/wing that can just completely disrupt our guards from doing anything on the offensive end that scares me.

    I would still like Mitchell on the roster but guys like Bishop and Allen don't need more rest. Your best players have to play 30+ minutes at this time of the year.
  11. texasstrong12
    Yeah, I edited. We're still the last top 4 seed. Bracket matrix currently has us as a 5 but I don't think a lot of the brackets have been updated. I think Texas will be a 4 seed in bracket matrix after Sunday when most of the brackets are updated.

    Lunardi has Texas as a top 4 seed still

    I think with Disu it's also just learning how to play in this system. It took all of non-conference play for Bishop to figure things out and start playing at this level.
  14. texasstrong12
    Moving forward what does everyone think the minutes distribution should look like? The only thing I've kind of settled on is Allen and Bishop need to be playing huge minutes. 30 minutes a night. I guess you could maybe throw Carr in this group but there are times when other guards are better than him. I dunno, outside of Allen and Bishop it kind of seems like a roster you just get a feel for in the game on how many minutes everyone plays.

    Also of note, that Tennessee win is turning into a huge win for Texas. It was already a good win of course but it's even looking better than I thought.
  16. texasstrong12
    Yeah. I think just one more win might get the job done including the Big 12 tournament. On a neutral court, beating anybody in the Big 12 quarters would be a decent to good win.
  17. texasstrong12
    Beating Baylor would almost certainly lock up a 4 seed I would think.
  18. texasstrong12
    Not good offensively but Ramey is the one that has to chase around the opposing team's best player. He was chasing around McNeil and Sherman all game.
  19. texasstrong12
    Yeah, I think Bishop is probably our 2nd best player on the roster after Allen. You could probably make an argument he's been our best player for a month.
  20. texasstrong12
    Texas is now 7-1 when Bishop plays 25+ minutes.

    I texted a buddy of mine telling him to watch Osabuohien shoot FTs in this one because he's one of the worst FT shooters I've ever seen. I saw him air ball 3 FTs in a single game this year. So of course the dude comes out and makes 9/10 from the FT line.
  22. texasstrong12
    I think it says a lot about certain players still being locked in. Febres could have easily quit on this team the way his season has gone.
  23. texasstrong12
    Osabuohein who I've seen air ball multiple FTs and shot 40% from the FT line coming into today went 8/9. When he was making FTs I thought for sure Texas was losing this one.
  24. texasstrong12
    In all seriousness, Febres finding a way to hit a few 3s would really help this team. Anybody that can hit some open 3s would be huge for this team. I'm just hoping this wasn't one of Febres random games where he goes off and that this remains consistent. We don't need him to hit 5 a game but 2 a night would be significant for this team.
  25. texasstrong12
    That was a very weird game. WV hit shots they wouldn't hit if this game was played 100 more times.
