Game 28: Texas at Baylor, ESPN2, 8 PM

With Shaka at the helm it feels pointless to even show up for road games.

BU -3.  135 total.  My math says then "they" have it at 69-66.

I'm not optimistic this team will score 66.  I'm not optimistic we keep them at 69.

I guess I'm just not optimistic about this team.

kenpom has it 68-66. If that's the final score at the end then i'm certain that we were down 14 with 10 minutes to go, got to within two, had 6 seconds on the clock, and then watched as Coleman lollygagged up the court and got his floater/fade-away three pointer blocked as time expired. I've seen that movie enough times to know how it ends.

Does KenPom account for Roach's absence?

I've been assuming they don't. i've seen a couple of these projections throughout the year for various teams who just lost/returned a player and from what i've seen they don't take that into account. 

[dogbreath 434]

This is Texas' only chance to win a remaining game on the road, so they better bring their speed and for once, be focused in a road environment.  And if there is a last shot opportunity put the ball in Ramey's hands.  

They ain't winning in Lubbock and conference tournament will be a neutral game.

A couple weeks ago, I thought I couldn’t be any less excited for the rest of this season....and then Roach got suspended indefinitely. 

[Horn80 6129]

Shakablah tonight!

[TornACL 7698]

I'm perfectly ready to be enraged tonight. 

[CurlyDumps 4476]

KenPom might not account for Roach, but Vegas certainly does.  Baylor -3?  Wow.  Hammer Baylor.

That's cold.

Absolutely true, though.

It's a trap. Baylor couldn't match UT's speed in Austin. I'm not sure if just Roach being out is enough of a difference .

[Js1 85384]

Uh oh

 

[Goo Punch 4275]

lmao, i thought all the wheels had already fallen off, i guess the fifth wheel just fell off the bumper too. jesus.

Roach accounted for 21 points the first time, I'm not sure where those points are going to come from. And if DO is out? He could beast a little bit on the smaller Baylor lineup, not sure who can fill the shoes.

If D.O. has now what I had last week, he ain't playing basketball tonight.

[texasstrong12 4668]

At this point, just get home and avoid injuries. The best two chances for wins were at home to begin with.

I'll be forced to listen to this game because I can't take much more of Galindo in the baseball game.

Oh, and of course we get Lance Blanks.

What is that guy(?) wearing on his head?

[Tommy Nobis 905]

DO out with “flu like symptoms” but he’s with the team at the game? That’s fucking dumb lol.

 

 

[taybo20 2877]

This gif seems even more appropriate now than it was a couple hours ago.

Mitrou-Long in. Countdown to drawing a charge.

Pathetic rebounding

[Pancho 44856]

is this team on the same page?  coleman and M-L keep looking at each other with wtf looks. 

(i'm on the app so about 30 seconds lag)

[VinyVango 694]

Hepa (who I think could be good some day) has zero clue on defense ... he does not put himself between his man and the basket very well

Not counting 2016 when the team was all Rick Barnes' players, Shaka is 19-31 in conference play. So he replaced a bunch of low 3* and a couple low 4* players with three straight top 8 nationally ranked classes and has proceeded to go 12 games below .500 with all that talent. It's amazing. 

[Machinator 32099]

How is this guy banking in free throws with ease?

[Goo Punch 4275]

great D Ramey.
