Gordon has been a big nothing on both ends tonight. Lofton's scoring has kept Tech in the game, but he is a defensive liability when the ball gets down low.
Maybe Gordon is saving it for the last few minutes like last week. I hope.
He's saving it on the bench right now.
Another Tech penetration shot missed badly. Lots of easy points Tech has left on the floor tonight.
Tech has never made a run in the second half but UTEP hasn't been able to pull away either.
Not looking like it's going to happen tonight.
Going to take some clanks from the line by UTEP.
82-74 Miners.
Big chance blown.
This was a BAD loss. UTEP is a BAD BASKETBALL team.
I still don't know how guys that are 6'5, 6'8 and 6'9, etc... can miss so many easy, high percentage, shots inside the paint. It was just ugly, ugly, basketball from the Dawgs.
Should win tomorrow. But then, should have won tonight. But you can’t win ‘em all.
Who says so? Why not?
If there's a scrawny guy that lives next door to you, and you can physically beat him up EVERY DAY, are you telling me one day you're just gonna wake up and the scrawny guy is going to beat YOUR arse?
I doubt it.
So it can be done, but not by Tech this season.Bill Russell and the 1956 San Francisco Dons were the first NCAA Division I men’s college basketball team to finish the year undefeated with an NCAA tournament national championship.
Over the course of the next 20 seasons, six other teams would go on to end the year unblemished. But not one squad has completed the elusive perfect season since Bobby Knight and the Indiana Hoosiers did so in 1976.
Apples and oranges. You totally changed the subject. Nobody --especially me-- said anything about LA Tech going undefeated in basketball. What I said was that UTEP is a bad basketball team, and that this was a BAD LOSS. And it was. LA Tech should be good enough to NOT lose to that BAD of a basketball team. That's a totally different subject from great teams going undefeated.
Let me help you with this, Dorm Fridge.
The better analogy would have been to show me evidence of Bill Russel and his national champion San Francisco Dons losing a conference game to a 6-6 team, that's probably going to finish in the conference cellar. That's what LA Tech achieved tonight.
The funniest part is, the back-to-back national champion San Francisco Dons didn't loose a single conference game in either of those two championship years.
We need Ledoux BACK
Definitely needed him last night. Archibald carried the load against UTSA, but he can't do it by himself outside for long.
Other Saturday results completed.
Charlotte wins over FAU today in Boca to split the weekend.
UTSA completes a sweep over USM in San Antonio.
Marshall puts the broom to FIU in Miami.
WKU opens its Saturday-Sunday series 82-67 over MT in Murfreesboro. Game 2 is Sunday at 1:00 CT on CBSSN.
UAB completes the sweep of shorthanded Rice in Birmingham.
Much better intensity to start tonight.
Need to stop turning the ball over.
And Pemberton can't buy one early.
Looking pretty good so far. Keep it up.
