Also I didn’t start watching until 11 mins left in the game.

I think the red lower bowl only holds ~2,400... Somebody correct me if I'm wrong.

You realize Boykins got hit in the face early in the game, his eye swole up, and then he couldn't see well out of that eye? Then after he came back in the second half, his ankle got twisted after their white guy sandwiched him while he was up in the air? And Jacobi and AD play different positions?
Boykins had a rough night, but he's usually a lot better, an excellent defender, and arguably the best shooter in Tech history. We need more Boykins to help dig us out of this hole.

What have you been watching for 4 years? The guy is our go to defender and is guards the star player every night. He defended Smart very well last night and was a reason we won the game.
Re: M. Basketball. Freshman Duo Come Up Big in One-Point Victory
4236 announced just because it was greek night.
Great promotion by our over paid leaders.

He was out with the flu

No red only holds a little over 1700
Most of the people tonite were in the blues on the student side of the arena
My guess - the actually attendance was close to 3500

Boykins got beat to a pulp last night
Sad thing was on all three plays not a SINGLE foul was called
And don't forget AD stomped on him coming down for a rebound also (right in his sternum)
That said he played a real good defensive game when he was in and was money from the FT line
Washington, Powell and White really struggled last night
If White is sick sit him till he is well, he is a defensive liability and can't rebound even when he has position
Powell forced his offensive game last night - missed 3 or 4 two footers which bleed over into his FT shooting which is normally solid - and he fumbled two late passes which were crucial turnovers
Washington was a no show - blew a dunk and was a step slow on defense
Jean, AAA, AD and Boykins all played lights out defense which kept us in the game even when we couldn't score
UNT took Boykins out of the game on the offensive end - he literally had no space to get off a shot, but he didn't force it because he knew the Frosh were on
Smart from UNT is all he is cracked up to be - he can drain 3s from any where and we never ever gave him an open look and the last shot he hit was a circus shot
