***Texas vs Duke Official Game Thread***

[joeywa]

Didn’t see one posted yet, and Horns are up 27-20, 7:08 left in 1st Half. 

Grayson Allen has 3 fouls early. Horns looking pretty good against the #1 Blue Devils. 

 

[joeywa]

Duke running four really talented frosh. 

Big O needs to temper his jacking of 3s. He has not been very accurate from out there today. We need his presence down low for offensive rebounds. 

31-22 Horns under 6

 

[joeywa]

Bamba has to be very careful here. Think that’s his 2nd. 

 

[joeywa]

Bagley is a solid player. 

Horns up by 10, under 4

 

[Aaron Carrara]

Texas holding their own against the Blue Devils.  Impressed with what I see so far.

 

[joeywa]

Me too. Up by 11; 37-26. Under 3

 

[The Bry-Man81]

Looking good so far... Offense was a struggle yesterday, so glad to see we are starting a little better than yesterday

 

[joeywa]

Duke has very little low post D. Keep feeding the ball down there. 

Horns up 41-29 1:25 in 1st Half

That was a awesome dunk! And I think he got fouled.

 

[Huskie1]

Great first half! Gotta finish! Last season was full on turnovers, crappy shots, and stupid decisions. This team moves the ball, takes good shots, and get after it. Could be a really good year. 

 

[joeywa]

Here we go. Second half Duke with possession. 

 

[joeywa]

Allen with Duke’s first points of the half are a 3. 

43-34

 

[joeywa]

Horns with a couple of turnovers early on. Poor shot selection and the lead is cut to 7 on a dunk by Bagley. 

43-36 

Shaka calls a TO to discuss. 

 

[joeywa]

Nasty assist by COLEMAN to Bamba for the fast break dunk. 

Horns back up by 11. 

 

[Huskie1]

I'm really interested how this second half pans out. Will the Horns continue show poise or will they get tight when Duke makes a run
