Biggest issue is our SRs that play can't score at all (Ebo, Warren, and Allen-Taylor).

They have no offensive game at all. I'm not even sure what Ebo and Warren are doing tonight. 

No excuse for total lack of effort….again 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Better from Rori there. Aggressive off the dribble. 

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

16 rebounds for us 13 for them

We are up to 36.8% shooting, Yay?

[Pato del Muerto 52551]

Nice camera angle on that long oob pass, good recovery by holle

Our 3 best offensive players (Harmon, Hunter and Matharu) rarely play together. I know Hunter has struggled recently but she can shoot and stretches the court. 

When we keep playing Warren, Ebo, and Allen-Taylor together we have 3 non-factors on offense. It's easy to defend.

Not playing smart. Careless turnovers.

[texasstrong12 4668]

With no Hunter and Matharu on the court I don't know why you wouldn't just run zone. 

We only have 1 shooter in Harmon on the court. 

[Js1 85470]

Back to being owned in the paint 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Texas is in trouble again. 

[Js1 85470]

We are cooked.

Yep, that and the turnovers the main issues

[texasstrong12 4668]

Lol Kansas gets the last shot because it took them 10 seconds to in bounds the ball.

He's not playing Hunter.

[Js1 85470]

OU about to beat Baylor 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Schaefer has to keep 2 of Matharu, Hunter or Harmon on the court or we don't have enough offensive weapons. 

Just watch how Kansas defends Allen-Taylor and Warren on the perimeter. Kansas isn't even attempting to defend them and it's working. It's no surprise why we constantly have terrible starts (especially on offense). Teams can sag off Allen-Taylor and Warren with Ebo being a below average 5 offensively.

I think it's also part of the reason Harmon is struggling. You gotta put some scorers around her. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Down goes Baylor. 

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

Kansas the better team so far, they are executing far better than we are.

We are are out rebounding them 21 to 18 but they have 7 steals to our 4.

We have more turnovers than them.

We can't seem to make shots in the paint, Tech and Kansas are much better there than us. We just seem to chunk it up and hope for the best.

The Big 12 defenses are shutting our half court offense down, and our defense is not leading to much offense like it does against the lesser teams.

Put us in a zone and we're done.

Wow, crazy year.

[texasstrong12 4668]

If our offensive gameplan is to feed Ebo in the post we aren't winning this one. 

[Js1 85470]

Vic is going to have to do his best coaching job in a while with this team. At least last year he had a #1 pick and a very experienced PG

[texasstrong12 4668]

Allen-Taylor and Warren have to hit a few of these open 3s. Leaving them wide open. 

[perfectchaos007 6677]

Gaston is a major liability.

She was playing great until she missed those few games because of Covid. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

I will not be upset to see Ebo not play another minute tonight.

Girl can't elevate to avoid blocked shots, may need oxygen soon.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Starting to get some energy now. 

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

Might try Matharu for Harmon for a little while. Harmon forcing passes and we need Aliyah's offense.

[Pato del Muerto 52551]

Ebo doesn’t seem to know how to play against a girl her height or taller.

She plays shorter than she is because she has no hops. Has some skills but some issues as well.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Allen-Taylor has to shoot those. They're leaving you wide open. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Same strategy by Kansas. Leave Allen-Taylor and Warren wide open/don't guard them. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Tied up. Gaston showing up now. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

If you put one of Matharu or Hunter in the game to force Kansas to guard one of them Gaston will start cooking inside. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Harmon playing great now. Teammates just have to start hitting open shots. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

3 on Harmon and Matharu. Not ideal.

No, not good.

[texasstrong12 4668]

Harmon still up and down but she's getting players wide open shots. Think that's her 6th assist now. 

Allen-Taylor and Warren can't be afraid to shoot. If they aren't going to guard you hit wide open jumpers.

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

Ebo doesn't draw many fouls either because she can't jump. Easy to stop her offense down low. Needs to work on her sky hook.

[texasstrong12 4668]

3 true FR on the court now. 

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

Not a foul on Harmon, girl pushing off anyway

[texasstrong12 4668]

That's an awful call and 4 on Harmon. 

Big 12 refs going to Big 12 ref. 

[Pato del Muerto 52551]

That’s serious bullshit. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Why can't we get calls even on our homecourt?

THAT was a big call. 4 on Harmon and they get two points with seconds left.

[texasstrong12 4668]

The Kansas girl falls down. Foul. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

Need Matharu to give us some good minutes with Harmon on the bench. 

[TommysTinyTowels 787]

Still shooting under 39%

[texasstrong12 4668]

I don't think Schaefer will be able to keep Harmon out long. 

[texasstrong12 4668]

We are playing 2 true FR bigs now.
