yeah, we were gonna lose at some point, but when we did it needed to be a close road loss to Baylor, or because our entire team was cold all night and we had three players in foul trouble- not because

Andrew Jones is so fucking awesome. The fact he’s even on the team after what he went through is insane. The fact he’s playing at this high a level? Holy shit. Andrew Jones is a fucking hero

Sure hope so.

Other than the KU game, his Big 12 play has been pretty good.  2 double doubles in 4 games and was 2 rebounds away from a third. 

27 mpg

50% shooting

39.9% BTA

12 boards

17 points

Should be a good game. What’s beards record vs shaka? Seems like he would be coaching circles around him. If we win this game it would seriously make me think shaka has turned a corner. 
 

ive been cautiously optimistic not wanting to be all in then watch the wheels

fly off. 

Split in 2016 & 2017, they won both in 2018, then we split again last year.

Huh if you told me Shaka vs. Beard was only 5-3 in favor of Beard, I probably wouldn't have believed you.  There's only been 1 true blowout (2019 @ Tech, we lost by 19).  Our other losses to Tech were by 5, 4, 2, and 10.

so jump on -2.  it's a better #...

speaking of betting lines, 131 seems a tad low, yes?

Could be.  This isn't the "40 minutes of wear their asses out till they tap out" Defense Tech has had.

Tech seems to be still in search of who they are going to be as a team. If the score goes high 70's or better, I lean Texas overall.

Tech doesn't have the athletic big men to keep up with Brown, Kai, and Sims for 40 minutes. They should be able to give us an advantage on the boards that translates into some easy buckets. 

Then again, you never know when ticky-tack refs will call a tight game that takes away the big man advantage.

The spread dropped to Texas -1.5 so I jumped in to continue riding the wave.  

I'm tempted. My basketball psyche is still trying to shake my battered Shaka syndrome which prevents me from being particularly optimistic.

Two things:

1) I've watched & bet on every game except Nova and we're pretty good.

2) I'm not a pussy and we're pretty good.  

Did I mention we're pretty good?

Greg reeeeally needs to improve his finishing. I feel like he constantly gets the ball under the rim and can't get an easy 2. 

But yeah, his boarding is phenomenal. I guess that's what makes it frustrating.
