Birt is Cordell Love 2.0. His shot is in and in rhythm so you just ride him until he has nothing left today.

Anyone know where our D has been? We've been giving up almost 40 in the first half on a regular basis. Last year I was disappointed if we gave up more than 25 in a half.

Down 9 early, I'll take up by 6 at half. Good outside shooting and 17 from Birt is the story of that first half. We need to rebound better in the second.

67% overall, 69% from 3 but we were out rebounded 2-1. Plus 0-2 from the line. Total of 6 freebies for both teams that half, very unusual.

So true. Birt has never met a shot he didn't like. Needs to stay hot.

Love Ray and Woodard today.

Go TU!!!!

That's not a foul.

By the way, I've yet to see Taplin. Where is he?

Taplin played a few minutes in the 1st half.

Here come the mighty fightin refs to get their calls in for the day.

These officials are the worst. Even worse than the typical biased one we get so often.

Ray is probably going to get some of Taplin's minutes. Rashad is from NOLA. Has 50 family members at the game.

GO TU!!!!

Can we finish a game strong? Have had trouble with that this year.

We are not good shooting team and form is not very good. However we are not that bad just have lost all confidence. We really have no ability to close games.

Is TU 3-of-12 now on free throws? Birt missed 3 in a row after a foul on a 3 ptr. I understand why Frank doesn't want to talk about free throws anymore.

That free throw thing has to be mental. Birt is a good free throw shooter but he's 7-10 from 3 and 2-5 from the line. You would expect the opposite.

I understand coach may lose this team if he followed my advise, however, at the end of games Harrison should be on the bench

The reason Taplin can't stay in the game is that he isn't quick on his feet on D. He has a good shot makes great passes but on D he will either lose his man or foul almost every time. He really needs to work on that in the off season because he will be expected to put in 20+ minutes a game next year.

Glad we won and have toughness to not throw the season in or have a let down to a lesser team on the road- lots of "bad" road losses yesterday. They don't/won't matter if teams get "good" wins- TU still has some good wins to get and some opportunities to do it
