What’s the deal on the new flop rule? Or I guess why is that a new point of emphasis? It’s not like flopping gives an advantage to the defense or is dangerous for either player. It seems like it was a solution to a problem that didn’t exist.

They didn't want to futbol our basketball so they're nipping that shit in the bud.

Because actual flopping is annoying as shit.

First game for me in the new arena. Obviously, game was awesome. But that arena....
Such a great atmosphere. Seriously the most fun I've had at a UT game of any kind in a long time. Ya it helps we won against #2 but this was WAY different. 
They did Moody right, in a big fucking way. 

The TV crew was gushing over the crowd and the Moody. Well done

they changed the rule this year that flopping is an auto T. Last year you got warned first.

Yeah I picked up a cheap ticket for the game against HCU last week. The atmosphere was obviously nothing like tonight, but even watching that game it was obvious how bad ass that place will be for big games. Also, you can buy a drink in that place approximately every 10 feet. whatever ticket revenue they lose from only having 10K seats, they will make up for in booze sales.

I definitely helped that revenue stream out tonight.

Especially because the drinks start at $12.

Tech is STILL salty af

 

I'm no acoustics engineer but I'm pretty sure those screens are designed to reflect sound because holy hell, that arena gets loud as fuck.

This team looks fucking salty.   Plenty of time to gel before the tournament.    I worry a little about a big 5 and big 4 mismatch down the road but guard play can take you deep into the dance.   Going to be fun to watch.

Well, it's not like Drew Timme isn't a threat.  Last year, he went for 37, this year, 18.  I think we're OK, as much as any team can be against a stellar big.

That guy is the fucking worst. Just a total bitch in every way imaginable. Hell I have even seen plenty of Tech fans light his ass up for his bitch ass shit on the Twittersphere.

Lol his marquee win with Texas?

Let me know when he wins a national title. Go fuck yourself with that complacent bullshit that has plagued us across a lot of sports for a long time now. 

Show us what it's really about, Beard. 

Go win that whole damn thing.

I love it when a plan comes together.  What a statement game - Beard putting his stamp on the Mood.  Glad to have that on national TV even if it was on the Deuce.  Fran said at the close of the broadcast "Texas Basketball has changed."  Let's goooooooooooooooo!!

Definitely not sorry if already posted.

 


They are getting fucking pumped for the World Cup to start, aren’t they. 

…making light of the fact that I missed the game because I have been avoiding most of Surly since last Saturday. 

I am pumped that we crushed it on national TV in the new crib.

And that’s understandable.
