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

[bobarmstrong]

Cunningham with a perfectly timed block on a McClung three called a foul in front of the Texas bench and Texas called for a tech.

all ball

 

[shaun2k1]

That is why people hate McClung. He got hit on the hand but, he acted like he got punched in the face.

 

[TheExec]

Are the refs just trying to **** us tonight. They are doing their best to keep this game close.

He does have a very punchable face

 

[StylisticS]

What a embarrassing call. That is absolutely terrible.

Every basketball player does that.

 

[Anwar Richardson]

That's a bad call and then a make-up tech, despite the fact that they already gave Tech a make-up with the soft flagrant foul.

Definitely a bad call

 

[LongHorn2021]

refs been good all game but that was really bad call

 

[lhk04a]

AJ. Freaking 1.

 

[smileartisan]

Jones is a stud

 

[bobarmstrong]

“This kid is hotter than my tea at Starbucks” - 😂

 

[LongHorn2021]

mcclung is a great flopper

 

[DustinMcComas]

Kai just gifted McClung three free throws on that one hitting him on the land after the three point miss.

 

[SouthAustinHorn]

McClung is the kind of player you detest unless he is on your team

 

[rjenk]

Flop

 

[shaun2k1]

Didn't know McClung was Irish for Grayson Allen.

 

[mikeytx52]

Floppers suck

 

[westsidehorn]

Kai just gifted McClung three free throws on that one hitting him on the land after the three point miss.

He barely bumped into him and the POS flopped like he got shot...

 

[smileartisan]

I think #21 for Tech was in Night Ranger

 

[benbrookhorn]

Refs man...

They have given them about 10 bullshit points on FTs.

I just tuned in and thought whose the mullet guy lmao

 

[rjenk]

Brock again

 

[benbrookhorn]

He barely bumped into him and the POS flopped like he got shot...

If you go back and look the ref was watching the shot and not the players. He happened to turn back and aee the flipper laying on the floor.

 

[LongHorn2021]

They have given them about 10 bullshit points on FTs.

yea, this game is being dominated and refs gave them those 7 its in 2 min is such a dagger

 

[SouthAustinHorn]

Damn, AJ is killing it.

 

[ukhorn]

Eddie Sutton basketball. Hard to watch when the refs buy it.

 

[TheRealNovoHorn]

I get selling it, but that dude acts like he’s being mugged every time he touches the ball. They’ll quit giving him that in the 2nd half.

 

[DustinMcComas]

Coleman gets a good look from his go-to-move but it doesn't drop this time.

HALFTIME: No. 4 Texas 48, No. 15 Texas Tech 38. These two teams went at each other in a major way. Great half of high level, competitive basketball minus the officiating.

 

[Dank Bank]

This team is such a breath of fresh air after this ugly year. Having a lot of fun watching Texas sports for the first time in a long time.

 

[mln59]

10 point lead at half is great playing 5 on 8

 

[Jack_Attack030]

Man this team is fun to watch. Obviously he recruited guys that fit his scheme but what did Shaka do differently this season?

having veterans on the team is huge. 3 seniors junior freshman starting lineup. This is year 3 of Ramey, Jones, Coleman. Andrew Jones is finding his game that made him a 5 star. And shaka has backed off little bit on offense and letting them go.

 

[benbrookhorn]

10 point lead at half is great playing 5 on 8

Haha, no shit.

 

[DustinMcComas]

Unlikely for Texas to shoot 50% from the field and 8-of-14 from three again in the second half against one of the nation's best defenses. But Brown and Ramey didn't play as much as usual because of fouls.

 

[J-VON11]

A college head basketball coach sent me this

“If they can score anything close to this they win the national title going away...”
”They are best defensive team in the country.“

Idk. Other than a couple of calls I don’t think the refs have been too bad tonight
