...beat the mountaineers!...

They can't guard Ridley, needs a touch every possession.

 

[utisdabomb12]

23-16 Texas with 7 in the first. That Taylor floater is pretty.

They can't guard Ridley, needs a touch every possession.

Agreed - Ridley has already dumped in 10. He is manhandling the 'Eers.

 

[bbdude]

Texas leads West Virginia 28-16 at the Under 6 mark in the first half.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Liking our defense so far. Best defense I've seen us play so far this season (other then a couple stupid fouls).

 

[utisdabomb12]

Refs are horrible. A couple bailout fouls that kept WV in the game that half.

 

[NLeininger]

WVU has 8 offensive rebounds which has been big for them. Also fouling on 2 3's stinks. Other than that, Texas is doing what they need to do.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Refs lol. How that wasn't a foul on Holmes......

 

[utisdabomb12]

Ridley really playing well tonight.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Texas is shooting 66.7 percent, wow.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Got to stop fouling jump shooters.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Wow, how many three point shooters are we going to foul.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Taylor's free throws have really improved along with Ridley.

 

[utisdabomb12]

Texas wins 88-71. Great all around game from Texas, was really never in doubt.

FINAL….Texas 88 WVU 71
