We’re toast without Aaliyah Moore. Combined with “Texas rules” officiating, this season feels like a wash

 

Yeah Vic is coaching with a battered roster, plus B12 Refs are "really giving it to Texas on a nice send-off to the SEC"

These young blonde female coaches love to fuck with Vic

FIFY

Yeah, I know that I have "burnt orange glasses" but it sure seems like Vic really gets screwed by B12 Refs quite a lot on away games...

That loss to OKST kicked us out of the “Receiving votes” category in the AP poll. We’l probably be a bubble team again when Charlie Crème updates his mock bracket tomorrow 

At this point we have no signature win. We face KU and ISU this week, both at Moody

Great Interview. Talked a little about the men's team.

Presser Nuggets:

Last game made good plays down the stretch and weren’t rewarded for them (cough..the refs sucked)
Texas gets everyone’s best game
Not an X’s and O’s issue but how hard you play.
Got to play harder, have to communicate on D – had players guarding air.
Getting our lead shot blocker back but hard to pull Hadi out the way she is rebounding.
Different skill-set with this group, we can score the ball but gave up 86 which was not ok.
His 1rst year team didn’t get it until late in the year
If we had other teams’ non-conference schedule, we’d only have one loss (cough.. Mulkey)
Praised the men’s team and Coach Terry.
 
Still can’t hear the dang questions.

Yeah, a big issue with Shaylee and Sonja. Sonja came from a program that was defense-optional.  There was a point in the 2nd Q that OSU was just driving the lane without even being touched or contested.  The freshman weren't particularly great either, which is why Jones subbed in late in the 2nd Q for the first time in a long time. 

Our effort was piss-poor on Saturday. 

As mentioned, we have a HUGE opportunity to pick up 2 top 25 wins this week in KU and ISU - both at home, ISU's starting center is out and Vic has always schemed ISU very well.

I don't know where Creme has Texas but they are nowhere close to being a bubble team. 

They're #13 in NET.

Props to Sark for being at the game. 

Crème’s has Texas as one of the last 4 byes. 

Ain’t no reason to worry about this in January. Big 12 is strong and we are only 3 games in 

54-47 Texas to the fourth

And there is no reason Texas would be a last 4 bye at #13 in NET. Go and look at the top 15 teams in NET last year and I bet none finished below a 6 seed.
