Texas Women’s Basketball 2023-2024: Handing out ass whoopins and lollipops, and we’re all out of lollipops

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

That line-up with Harmon, Booker, Jones, Gaston and Holle is sick. That group can get you to the last weekend.

The way Gaston is moving and playing I don't see how she wasn't good to go against UConn.

This is going to be a great year.

Jewell Spear should have come to Texas. 

Such a dumb decision. 

The only weakness this Texas team might have (key word might) is perimeter shooting.  A shooter like Spear with this roster would just be unfair. I think Texas is probably a top 5 team without her but damn what a bad decision.

Harper is some kind of portal witch or Tenn's NIL for WBB is crazy good.  It makes no sense - Harper is basically Karen Aston at this point.

On Fubo you have to sign up ( I did the premier level) and then at the end you can choose an add-on for the sports plus package which carries the game. At least it lists it on my directory.

If you do that, you should watch and cancel soon after.

Third leading scorer for AZ out

Shaylee, Amina, Taylor, Rori and Booker starting

[D3zii 3678]

PAC 12 with that stupid asss network 

 

That’s why no one likes them 

[Js1 85320]

Jones with 7 already. 2-3 and 3-3 FT. Keep feeding her 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Jones height giving them trouble.

They are staying in this with good outside shooting

2 for 2 from three

[Js1 85320]

Yeah we need to guard their 3 point shooters. 4-4 now 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

They are 4 for 4 from three.

AZ shooting 57% all from outside

 

25 Texas

22 for AZ

 

[Js1 85320]

25-22 Texas after 1 

Not much defense tonight - 55% for Texas, 57% for Arizona 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Gilbert is killing us

4 for 6 from the floor 12 points in the first quarter

 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Still no Gaston

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Terrible foul on Shaylee, the girl mugged her, Vic pissed

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Jones out Hadi in. Still no Gaston

27 to 24 texas up

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

7 turnovers,

Az is up for #5 Texas

1 point game 28 to 29 texas up

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Both teams stalled out offensively in the second quarter.

Texas 4 points AZ 6

4:41 left in the half

Zone hurting us

Edited December 14, 2023 by TommysTinyTowels

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Moore on the floor now, Gaston must be out.

[Js1 85320]

Finally some separation. 37-28. Arizona under 40% shooting and haven’t hit another 3 yet 

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

This is why you have to keep playing Holle. About the 4th time she's beat Arizona down the court. 

[Js1 85320]

Also Rori 8p, 4r, 6a already. Triple double watch 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Nice little run, Holle beating everyone down the court

37 to 28 Texas

Booker 1 for 5 for 2 points so far

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

These refs are keeping Arizona in the game. 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Booker a nice turnaround, Hadi with a steal and bucket

Yeah, horseshit calls

[Pato del Muerto 52492]

Obviously I’m not watching this but i suspect vic had some opinions on the first quarter defense that he relayed at the break.  

[Js1 85320]

45-36 Texas at half

Welp, they just hit a three dammit

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

Up 9 and Arizona couldn't miss from 3. 

[VirginiaLonghorn 4771]

Just an observation … Arizona’s coach is better lookin’ than Vic.

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Great crowd, world class cheerleaders.

2 fouls on Taylor, 3 on Holle. No one else in foul trouble.

Moore hit our only three of the half, we are 1 for 5

2 on Gonzales too. Shows the versatility of this team. 

2 of our starters hardly played in the 1st half but up 9. 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

I was looking forward to Gaston wrecking another team. Maybe load management? Didn't hear anything.

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

Booker is here now. 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

They are freaking 6 for 6 from three

 

They have 4 players shooting threes and none have missed

Edited December 14, 2023 by TommysTinyTowels

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

We just have so many weapons. 

[Js1 85320]

Quick 7-0 run in 1 minute 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Killing them on the boards 24 to 14

Shaylee 33333333 x 2

Edited December 14, 2023 by TommysTinyTowels

[Js1 85320]

Rori 10-6-9

1 assist from a double double and 4 rebounds and 1 assist from a triple double 

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

When Gonzales hits 3s there isn't a weakness with this team other than maybe FT shooting. 

[Js1 85320]

64-45 Texas at the 3rd quarter media TO

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

Teams are sagging on our ability to get to the rim and how tough Jones is to defend inside. 

Gonzales should have a green light because she can do this. 

 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Maul hasn't seen the floor either.

[Pato del Muerto 52492]

Harmon is the leading rebounder in the game

arizona’s leading rebounder is also a guard- she has 3

Edited December 14, 2023 by Pato del Muerto

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

They are sending everybody to stop Jones.

Vic smiling? Crazy world

[Js1 85320]

Double double for Harmon 

[TommysTinyTowels 785]

Book it.

Depth starting to kill them

[Rickylovesweed 14293]

The problem is Arizona is playing at our pace. You can't beat us playing like this.
