Also- Am I really a jerk for...
booting my girlfriend out at noon because I had to "run errands" and the all-time shady excuse "call people". Ahhh, now I have the house all to myself- Mizzou, Creighton/WSU later, and I'll flip around the NFL playoffs.
Anyone have a good excuse for tomorrow?

Texas doesn't even practice?...
According to Sunvold it's "Walk Around". Sickening.

And Mizzou proving that if you can get
the ball inside the 3pt. arc against us, you are very likely to score. Foul trouble early for us to...not exactly the start you would like. But at least there is a decent crowd there.

Texas is on pace for around 90, which is
like 110 in the NBA. I'm not sure we can keep up with them.
Carroll is getting HACKED!

fouls all around now...that should help
They let them play, and then call small stuff...I can hear The Boy screaming from here.

Time for Matt Lawrence to sit
Shot is not falling, he provides nothing else at this point that someone else can't do better.

Best half of basketball I have seen
Gonna be a war in the 2nd half...need Keon to stay hot, Hannah and Lawrence to get something going and Lyons to have big half.

Lyons hasn't done much this game. Carroll has
been all over, but isn't being physical enough. The Longhorns are boxing him out and pounding him.

yep...certainly best effort of the year
Got to keep it going now, but I am certainly a lot more pleased with this effort than I have been with any others this year. I am hopeful Keon has gotten out of his funk and can become the scorer we really will need to compete through the rest of the conference season.

Carroll, when physical, is a BEAST. Great final..
30mins or so for him.
Need Lyons out of foul trouble.
Of course, DJ Augustine being horrible today doesn't hurt.
