NIT semifinals: Texas vs. TCU, 8:30 PM, ESPN

[AeroHorn 749]

TCU is getting good looks but not finishing, and we are poor at the rim too.

[Katfid54 8606]

Unbelievable that if we had just played with this intensity a few weeks ago, we would have made the NCAA tournament.

All of them.

[LTtxfan 49143]

Finish half strong Horns!!!! 🤘

[Juke_Em 47]

Hopefully VA Tech is watching this and is impressed with Shaka

[Goo Punch 4275]

If i were starting a team and had to choose one of the two, i'm really not sure who i'd choose between jericho sims and alexis wangmene. to be fair to sims, wangmene had far superior coaching and training, so the answer is probably sims. still, i'm shocked by how bad he is at this point in his career. there's almost no growth and he still seems as timid and unsure of himself as ever. 

[AeroHorn 749]

nice defense

[Goo Punch 4275]

how do we lose jaxson hayes and then go on our best run of games of the season, and in a postseason tourney no less?

[AeroHorn 749]

was he getting sacked?

[Juke_Em 47]

We are gonna beat Lipscomb by 30...it's clear we are the best team in this tournament. A couple of extra home games to build their confidence was all they needed

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

30.2 seconds left ... wonder if Shaka is gonna go for a 2-for-1 here.

Somebody needs to get an EMT up to the girl being murdered during TCU's free throws.

14-point lead at intermission. Margin would be about 30 if we made our bunnies.

[MonkeyDoughnut 10227]

So not watching the game.. how much of that 17 point half for TCU is from good Texas defense and how much is from crappy TCU offense?

Need to work that layup drill like nobody's business during warmup.

Exactly. Bizarre how many easy points we left on the table.

Hate to say it, but I'm enjoying this run more than I would have a one and done in the dance.

Roughly 50/50. Definitely plenty of hustle on our side.

Texas effort has been awesome. D has been good (although not perfect), but our guys are busting their asses on both ends of the court. We've missed 5 or 6 layups that would have turned this into a laugher.  TCU will probably make us pay for missing those.

Agree..... missed several short shots that could have really increased the Horns lead.  Great 1st half defensive effort..... glad Refs are letting them play.

[alphahorn 1637]

this has the very appearance of an NIT semi. these fucking clubs don't belong in any real tourney

[Braff Zacklin 13552]

He posterized hisself.

[NAVY 6740]

Hahahahahah

[honolulu horn 6158]

I've done that dunk lots of times in the driveway

[Pato del Muerto 52485]

The NIT...it’s faaaaaaaantastic!

[tantric superman 4667]

Yikes.  This game. 

[Blotto 23487]

It's like WNBA hoops with less testosterone 

[alphahorn 1637]

A fitting end to D.O.'s career would be for us to make the final, be down 1 in the closing seconds and have D.O. miss a lay up at the buzzer

[Gut Wagon 8065]

It’s perhaps the least amount of offensive basketball skill I’ve ever seen on a court at one time. Kaiser Bob would be embarrassed. 

[honolulu horn 6158]

We are just saving the playbook for Lipscomb.

[alphahorn 1637]

Best drinking game ever, take a shot every time we miss a shot from 2 ft. or less

Oh, it's plenty offensive.

That geek that got rejected by the rim....Jesus Christ that was hilarious.

senior guard who can't shoot FTs

[alphahorn 1637]

nice scouting TCU, DO has only faked every 3 the past 15 games

Exactly. WTF? Make the damn free throw. The basket doesn't move.

[alphahorn 1637]

our offensive inefficiency is an art form

[honolulu horn 6158]

.....and here comes the collapse.

[Coelenterate Fuccboi 13089]

I started watching just in time to witness the collapse.
