Great win Bulldogs!!!
Wow. That wasn't locked up until 4 sec left
I have to admit, I'm a little to blame. I've been listening to the game, and then down by 9 I finally remember to put on my Tech baseball cap, and as soon as I did, we started the come back.
I promise from here on out, I will be wearing my cap every game.
Faced adversity and got it done. Tulsa plays better than record would indicate.
Obviously every win is a good win, but this one tonight against Tulsa is a particularly good win. Lose tonight, and you can stick a fork in us because we would be DONE. But the win tonight against Tulsa --arguably one of our toughest remaining regular season games-- makes all the difference in our regular season.
Good teams are the ones that can have a off game and still get a win.
All the same, I think I may have used some of my bad words watching at home tonight.
Tech was the 10th Top 100 RPI team Tulsa has played...that team is battle-tested and is maturing...will be a tough out in El Paso.Quote:

I can't believe Coach White can't coach 'em out of that problem.
Dude--I noticed the SAME THING! (and, as a white chick who went to a private school, you can just imagine the basketball acumen I possess!) :DQuote:

I think Coach White is trying to walk a fine line with the FT's - trying to push them enough with extra work on it while at the same time not making it a mental issue - except for Keyon basically everyone was bad at the line tonite
Kyser was HUGE on the floor the last 5 minutes of the ball game - as bad as he played the first 35, he was that good the last 5
We had the looks all night long - counted 4 threes that were in the basket and popped back out
Hamilton was off again tonite - he really struggled with all aspects of his game
Andersen was cold as ice but got several huge put backs
But it was a W and I will take it
My guess was the crowd was just south of 4k - maybe 3,800 but they were LOUD that last 5 minutes
They were really loud, especially on the shot clock violation stretch - as loud as I have ever heard the TAC, even when it was full
