I fucking love this team.  That is all.  Hope we can grind it out Sunday without disu

We're going to lay a beating on Miami like their football team did to us in the Cotton Bowl in 1991.

Losing Disu sucks but in a way it may have helped us in this game. 

IMO, Bishop is a much better perimeter defender. Bishop did a great job defensively tonight. When our guards are scoring like they did tonight it's all about the defensive end. 

I hate it when important games are knocked off course because an important player on one or the other gets sidelined right before a game.

The opponent game planned their defense around that person.

And now, suddenly you're up against a rando player with a totally different playing style that your defense isn't prepared for.

Too often, the team with the intact roster loses.

What? The opponent gameplanned to have their important player playing and now he’s gone.

Just think how bad we would have beat bama if colt had gotten hurt.

[DanTheHorn 4971]

Rewatching game 11:57 in second half is such a Lance Blanks 3 by Hunter

[Rickylovesweed 14829]

Was this the first game where all 3 guards played well together in the same game? 

We've been winning games almost all season with only 2 playing well at the same time so unsurprisingly Texas looked insane when all 3 played well.

Your reading comprehension is subpar.

Hunter and Bishop really showed up last night... good to see this team hold it together so well without Disu

Timmy looked good too !!!  🤘

IF we can get that Hunter for 3 games we may be unstoppable.

[ChickenSandwich 9856]

Hunter lead the team with Rice and Carr in foul trouble and his two threes were huge were huge in the moment  he’s been great for the last month plus

You said the team without the injured player is disadvantaged. I’m saying the team with the injured player is also disadvantaged. They both had their game plans ruined.

Well, yeah they're obviously both disadvantaged.
My only point was that it seems to me that in big games I've watched, it's the team with the intact roster who more often loses.

And that the loss might be attributed to a wrecked game plan.

 

But I'm no expert, just a fan talking out in beer language!

It’s the inability to modify the game plan.  Something that Texas has been excelling at.

If you didn't notice a SEVERE change in the way the game was called in the second half, and a lopsided one at that, you weren't paying attention.

just rewatched the 2nd half

there was a clear fuckup on an out-of-bounds play with around 11 on the clock

other than that there were PLENTY of whistles in our favor that would not have been called in a oSu15 situation

i just don't see the "change in tone" everyone up in here is certain they witnessed

[dogbreath 434]

Hunter was huge on the defeensive end. He harassed and pressured their point guard all game long. 

[Post Oak 20327]

I really liked how RT used Morris and Mitchell last night.  Stole minutes with them and then got them out.

[Beau Vine 54834]

I really liked how SJR abused #5 so badly that our players were openly laughing at him and he went to the bench crying.
