If anyone can't find the game on their tv, you can try the MSG+ channel. That is what I am having to watch it on.

Texas 7-0 at first timeout, good start.

 

[SFlonghorngirl]

love our passing and finding open space

 

[Chris Flanagan]

That's a bad call. No way that's a flagrant 1.

BTW shameless plug. Follow the CBS Sports Gametracker to see my live tweets or Follow me on Twitter!

 

[utisdabomb12]

Yep, barely touched him. Basketball has gotten so soft.

 

[monarch]

beat the frogs!

 

[utisdabomb12]

Texas has really improved their defense. If you can't hit jump shots, it's very difficult to score on our defense.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Refs are not very good.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Got to get the ball inside to Ridley more. They have nobody that can handle him.

 

[Chris Flanagan]

I think this Longhorns basketball, while very good. Seems to play up or down depending on the competition. Or maybe TCU isn't that bad. Nah I think it's the former.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Yep, playing down to competition. Never easy to play on the road in conference though. Playing great defensively and actually pretty good ball movement. Just careless turnovers and not enough touches inside for Ridley.

 

[utisdabomb12]

22-20 TCU at the half. Not a very good half. Ridley has to start touching the ball.

I was afraid of this. I think we'll be fine in the 2nd half. I just hope if we do end up dropping this one that the team can remain confident and focused. Still very talented and can do big things

Yep, hangover from the past few weeks. Hard to get up for TCU when you beat 4 ranked teams in a row. Need to win this game though.

 

[hoskins5]

Very true

Has nothing to do with Felix, has everything to do with not showing up and getting the ball inside. Happens sometimes, don't show up ready to play. Sure Felix might have helped some, but this would still be a dog fight of a game regardless of him playing or not.
