based on a quick look at Kenpom they look a bit like an offensively challenged version of one of Shaka's VCU teams.

What site did you pull that from? That's cool.

We may live at the line if they foul a lot. They likely can’t guard Coleman, Ramey and Sims if we play like we did against OSU and drive the ball.

Most surprising thing to me is their shooting profile. Awesome 3 pt shooting team that barely shoots them (looks like small sample size variance?) and also shoots free throws poorly, but doesn't have anyone that gets to the line much.

8 point favorite seems a tad low.  Not touching it though.

I'm guessing we're gonna be an early game with our opponent having zero name recognition.  Day drinking anyone?

I’m a little worried about a letdown after being up so much for the conference tourney.

We will have a full week off. I think we’ll be okay on that front.

Not that far off from the other 3 seeds

Leading scorer at 12.3 ppg is Kolton Kohl, 7-footer out of San Angelo Central.

He's got a pretty hawt girlfriend who literally just closed insta while I was looking at it, and plays for the ACU volleyball team.

Despite being 7 feet tall, Kolton averages only 4.8 rebounds pg.

Next leading scorer at 10.8 is  6'8" PF Joe Pleasant who's the son of Anthony Pleasant, who played DE in the NFL for 14 years.  Joe leads ACU in rebounding.  

Guards are very small, both 6'0".  SG Coryon Mason is the only other guy averaging in double figures at 10.7.  PG Reggie Miller weighs 150, but leads ASU in assists and steals and is 3rd in rebounds.

6th man and 4th-leading-scorer is the very unfortunately-named, well...

From Nevada, Missouri.  Wonder if it’s pronounced like the state or like the Texas town.

Mentioned in the other thread, but for those pissing themselves about the ACU turnover numbers, they're help significantly by playing 5 D2/3 opponents.

136 turnovers forced total against McMurry, Hardin-Simmons, Tarleton, Dallas Christian, and Howard Payne.  29 total turnovers by Tech and Arky.

A VCU team coached by Shaka lost to the Southland champ in a glorious way - I was there and axe ‘em Jacks. 

UT is much better than that VCU team and this ACU would have lost by 20 to that SFA team.  

Texas by 15 or more.

Texas let some shitty teams hang around this year in games that were never really that in doubt. -8 isn't that surprising.

Now, there is absolutely zero reason Texas should lose this game. On paper this is a mudholing. But Texas has done enough weird, stupid shit this season to probably give bettors cause for concern.

I went to elementary school with a kid whose last name was Fagg. We knew it was funny but not quite how serious at the time. Can’t imagine what his middle and high school was like.

Yeah.  I guess you either learn how to fight, learn how to drink, or possibly both.

I was an advocate early on for Texas hiring Brad Underwood... I still am. As an SFA grad, I hated to lose him, but I knew we would eventually. Might as well lose him to my *heart* team, Texas. Now, we see Underwood’s coaching genius emerge, at a Big-10 program. I hope the Illini win it all (assuming Texas doesn’t). 

Our two oldest children are ACU grads. We are proud ACU made the tourney, but we’re doubtful they play spoiler. Just hope it’s not a 100-50 type of result.

SFA should be gone all out to keep Boynton. Mistake there imo.

I feel the need to point out that Abilene Christian ended the baseball season last year for Texas.  (completely without context of course)

That was my last big day out before covid... ate at Matt’s, went to the bicycle store on Congress, then the game. Hopefully, we can get out and go to events without worrying again soon.

I try to avoid these kinds of threads, because while I can't prove I have jinxed UT football in the past, I firmly believe I have jinxed UT basketball and the Houston Astros when I post in those threads.

8 points is probably right.
