Game Thread: Texas vs Virginia Tech

[Jameson McCausland]

This should be a fun one. Texas is looking for their first tournament win since 2014.

Hook'em.

I love this time of year. 

[tejasrulz]

I picked Texas to win this game but I must admit I was going with my heart.

I picked VT in my bracket. But I'll always pull for the win here. VT is just a hot team right now.

 

[Jameson McCausland]

Texas is 0 for 7 from the field to start this one. And a handful of those were really good looks.

[Jameson McCausland]

Texas starting to settle in a little. Andrew Jones connects on a pair of 3’s.

VT Tech up 14-13

[Jameson McCausland]

23-22 VT Tech with under 4 minutes left in the half.

[UT1983]

Make that 34-32 Texas at the half.   What a shot! 

[Jameson McCausland]

Huge shot from Carr.

34-32 Texas leads at the half.

[tejasrulz]

Carr with a 3/4 court length shot to put Texas up by 2 at halftime!

BTW, yall see that look Beard gave Allen after picking up that cheap foul with 2.1 seconds left? Speaking of fouls, the refs were letting them play early then started getting picky. They missed a VT player putting his foot in Brock's privates.

[Jameson McCausland]

Texas up 50-42. This is the best Dylan Disu and Marcus Carr have looked in a while.

[TexCoyote]

Seems like when Carr goes we go.  

[Jameson McCausland]

Texas up 14 with 7:14 remaining. 

[Ntx dog]

Offense going into a shell. Cmon boys. Bring it home.

[Ntx dog]

Crap. Here goes our offense.

[TexCoyote]

It can never be easy with this team.

Disu would be my Player of the Game. He played so well, I had to check and make sure it was Disu. lol

Ramey was money in some key possessions.

 

[TexCoyote]

Yeah I’m glad we got Beard.  We’ll continue to get better from here with the way he can build a roster.

[Ntx dog]

BS call.

[Ntx dog]

7 point lead with 45 seconds never felt so unsafe

[Baron]

All five starters in double figures and 52.6 from beyond the arc. That's a winning formula. Hook'em

Jones, IMHO, was the player of the game. He kept Texas in the 1st half and lead all scorers with 21 pts. Carr and Allen had very good games also.

True but dumb@ss play by Brock and I'm a big fan of his.

[Jameson McCausland]

Huge win for Texas. Beard needed that in year 1.
