LeDoux's back and Bass' ankle keeping them both out this weekend also.

Tech looks about 3 steps slow tonight. Doing nothing on the defensive end.

Watching the Miners hit threes is giving me a flashback to Alabama v LSU the other night.

You can tell the color commentator is wearing a mask. Or he has a potato in his mouth.

[Dorm Fridge]

Now Tech is popping some 3s. Nice.

[FriscoDawg]

Offense finally getting in gear after a couple of defensive stops.

[HogDawg]

Archibald is 0-4 and Cobe Williams is 0-5. Let's let somebody else shoot.

[HogDawg]

Miners up 38-32, with 2:50 left in the 1st half. Dawgs possession.

[FriscoDawg]

Tech would be in the game if had hit 50% of its shots inside 4 feet.

And way too many easy points allowed.

Down 50-38 at halftime.

[Dorm Fridge]

38-50, the bad way at half.

But I think Tech will find a way to win this one.

[HogDawg]

UTEP leads 50-38 at halftime. Wow! Talk about NO DEFENSE! When you give up 50 pts in the first half to a sorry ass UTEP team, you played......

NO DEFENSE WHATSOEVER!!

[FriscoDawg]

Tonight's other winners are Marshall over FIU in Miami, FAU over Charlotte in OT in Boca, UTSA over USM in San Antonio, and UAB by 10 over Rice in Birmingham.

UAB 4-1
NT 3-1
*Tech 4-2
Rice 4-3
USM 3-4
*UTEP 2-4
UTSA 2-5

[FriscoDawg]

Gap not closed in the first four minutes. Or in the first eight minutes.

[Dorm Fridge]

Had it within 10 with 10 minutes left, then let them pop a 3. Ouch.

Might want to defend those 3 point shots, even if just a little.

Their big man is killing us. Our bigs are not so hot tonight.
