HOOPS GAME THREAD: No. 4 Texas vs. No. 15 Texas Tech (8:00 p.m. on ESPN2)

Shaka blew this one. Sims is just average. He can’t make a FT. That is no use in the tournament. Tech blows. We blew it. Shaka special. He sucks a D

McClung drains it in Ramey’s face. Ramey & Coleman...woof tonight. Damn, what a give away by Ramey up 2 and the ball...damn, terrible pass. Beard’s pressure defense created 19 points off turnover.

Snatched defeat from the hands of victory. Sims misses both free throws, Ramey has a giveaway and they sink a three. Pathetic.
 
Ramey threw a chair following the loss and had to be calmed down. Can hear the Texas Tech locker room LOUDLY celebrating the win with extremely loud music pumping through the arena.
Well he lost the game so.........
 
It's the Big XII guys. Gonna take some losses. Get revenge when they come back around. There's no home games this season.
 
I don't even blame this game on Shaka. Shaka didn't hand the ball to Tech for a layup in the last minute of the game. Shaka didn't go 4-12 from the line. Tech is a good team after all.

But if something doesn't change re Ramey, if Ramey isn't given a message after this game re head out of ass, then that would be on Shaka.

Second half was full of shitty play, shitty shooting and ignorant choices. Looked like choke city! We got way too loose with plays. This might be a good loss to wake these guys up. Texas could have won the game by 15 points or more with smart playing in the second half. Play loose but under control.

Turnovers and stupid fouls
 
There are guys on this board that still think Coleman and Ramey are high major guards, and better than Jones. Beard coaches circles around Shaka and some people actually think Shaka is a good coach. The first half was due to Jones scoring and Tech not being able to throw it in the ocean. Second half is a true indication of what this team really is. Unfortunate for the players but is what it is.

Reality is we live and die with Coleman/Ramey. I’ve never seen 2 players that can be so outstanding one minute, and then down right terrible the next - UNFORCED. That hasn’t changed over their UT careers, and will continue until the end I’m afraid.
 
Always happens with a game like this
You replay the last 4 possessions and everything has to go Techs way to win......the game got too fast for Ramey this time
When Ramey missed that layup, I said that’s going to be the difference in the game, ugh
Ramey is not a very good finisher around basket with contact I have noticed

Coleman and Ramey sucked those last 40 seconds on both side of ball, the will get better from this

They have been doing this their entire time at Texas. Both are terrible and not good enough for Texas to be ranked 4th. We are a top 20 team because we have superior athletes that have played together for 17 years.
