[Cairn Horn88 8260]

It's always good to win an 11:00 am game....the rest of the day is gravy.

I mean K St was a 10 point game and this was a 10 point game. 

Felt like we never had a chance against KSU. We were down 1 in this game. Never lead against KSU and were down by 20

Brocks dad reached out about them loving surly and wanting to do something with us. Should we raise some money for an NIL thing? 

Why not. How much will he pay us?

Way too many turnovers but I still thought Texas had good looks. They missed 3 or 4 bunnies at the rim and several wide open 3s. 

Just make shots.

It’s almost like if you pack your defense you can win and stuff

I definitely prefer that style of play.

I hear ya. A lot of that had to do with them refusing to miss FTs. Today was ugly but they closed it out without any drama. I'd say both of those games were fairly convincing while the OU game was a total coin flip it felt like (granted they hit a meaningless 3 to make the score prettier).

Regardless, 2 road wins already in the league in fantastic. Especially Stillwater, feels like we struggle there often.  Granted we haven’t been to Lawrence, Manhattan, Ames, Lubbock or Waco yet.

A wins a win. I’ll take the W on the road

It is.  And it sucks we lost one at home.

GIA was half empty today. Is class not started or starting this coming week?

Classes start Monday. Campus was mostly empty yesterday.

When we were up by 5, I said about 20 times: "Pull away and win by 10."

 

You're welcome.

I've kind of found my peace with this season. Beard obviously fucked it all up but now instead of the pressure of expecting this team to at least get to a regional final I'm just going to enjoy seeing what is by all accounts a great group of Longhorns play and finding out what they can do. They didn't screw this up so hopefully they enjoy some success and find a way to get it done without Beard.

I do appreciate how hard these guys play and you can tell they actually do care about one another. It's not going to be pretty but these players have grit and I'm hoping for a nice run

I want to get there cause I agree with you. Not there yet. Just still so pissed at CB.
