Well figured I would go ahead and get us rolling early with the game thread this morning since I know I will be getting approximately ZERO work done today. We can win today if we can just control Omier and Edgecombe. Look Edgecombe is going to get 15-18 pts. It's going to happen. We can't all freak out when he's getting buckets. But if we can control Omier and don't let someone like Jeremy Roach beat us, we'll win today.
I haven't seen Baylor play but I assume Cam will be on Omier?
I also see that Jayden Nunn shoots 41% from 3. A guy like that is scary against our defense.
I don't feel great about our chances but I'm sure Baylor fans feel the same way after how their season has gone. Hopefully we can get to 80 which would give us a great shot at winning.
So when I broke down Baylor Sunday morning this is how I had us matching up with them:Quote:

gonna come down to whether we can make some 3's or not. If we go 4-20 or something like that from 3 then it's one and done
Well and it's keeping them from going 10-22 or 11-28. We need to hold them between 5-7 and we win.Quote:

Can we just win one so we can have something to be proud of this year?
Win this one, then unveil it on the grand stage.
30 minutes out. Starting to get extremely nervous. I really just want to see us win a tournament game.
Let’s roll! Play loose and hard we win!
I'd rather not play lose. I'd like us to play loose though.Quote:

Already paying dividends. Early foul on Edgecombe.
Richard doesn't like Keyshawn vs their guy
If they aren't going to rebound, get Murphy and Matthews out. Put Kugel/Jones and Melendez in there and just play small.
Questionable subs. We were playing good. Went to the bench early.Quote:
