Winner of this game plays the OU/OkStU winner tomorrow night.

Game time. ISU is ranked 13th in the country. A win tonight would send the Horns into the tourney on a very high note.

I wrote this after the game last night:

On Wednesday, the Longhorns looked like a playground bully, sauntering up and down the court with a glint in their eye that bespoke a confidence that, no matter what their record said about them, they knew all along how good they can be.

I'm interested to see if that attitude is carried into this game.

Lammert needs to continue to shoot well. His success goes a long way for this team.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

The threes are being jacked up early and often tonight!

 

[Matt Cotcher]

Texas started 5-7 from three point range. If that opens things up for a strong interior game, it’s worthwhile.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

At this point the threes are falling.

Texas with a nice rebounding advantage here early on as well.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

At the half in Kansas City Texas leads Iowa State 36-25.

I'll take an 11 pt lead at the half over ISU.

 

[streettopeschel]

That was a helluva half.

 

[Matt Cotcher]

ISU can score in a variety of ways and do it in a hurry. Texas should not rely on shooting 50% again in the 2nd half. 

IMO, it's time to run last night's offense.

Listening on Sirius 84.

This has got to be an Iowa State crew.

Holmes is dialing in his range.

 

[streettopeschel]

Who ARE these guys?

 

[joeywa]

Finally switched to the audio stream on my phone. Couldn't take the ISU homers any longer.

 

[Aaron Carrara]

Holmes has 15 points and 5 rebounds thus far.
