No field goals in last 5 minutes but managed to win on Aberdeen foul shots. How many wide open 14 footers did we pass up in both halves?

Late lineup switches were questionable. However, the players took some really ill advised shots in that stretch. Got the W though, so I don’t care.

yep. It’s a dub. Some one dub BG upside the head. He bout turned that over and that would give Texas a run out layup to tie it. He’s so frustrating.

Oweh didn’t do much the second half I guess Texas put a good defensive player on him. Got tired of watching Aberdeen dribble and almost turned it over, but he bailed us out with his free throws.

The level to which Oweh has regressed from last season is inconceivable
What in the world are you talking about? Since SEC play started, he's consider one of the hottest players in the league.
I’m not complaining. I’ll take the win. But Texas isn’t a good team imo. Worst team out of the last 4 we played.
They beat Vanderbilt and Alabama so there's that

You and cornbread should run the team. Cats win.
I’m glad we won, but we are too far in the season to be working on the things we are working on. Be a sunshine pumper if you must. I’m glad we pulled it out but no other coach in America puts Noah in like that, not a one. Too close of a game.

I work closely with several other power 4 teams and I can guarantee you the difference in the coaching staff’s presence between us and them is night and day. It’s a respect thing and an expectation and standard. Love Pope to death but he had to learn accountability and leadership if he wants to truly succeed here.

That being said go cats!

Jelavic, Johnson, Garrison, and Noah played a combined 43 minutes and scored 4 points total
Why lump Jelavic in there? He played 18 minutes and score 4 pts on 2/2 shooting and added 7 rebounds and an assist.

Now the other 3 played 25 minutes combined and gave us very little.

This team can’t seem to do anything the easy way right now. Avoided the big first half deficit tonight, but then went stall ball too early and had a late 11 point lead trimmed to 2 with less than a minute left. At least we were able to hold on for the win this time unlike our similar late game droughts against UNC and Missouri. 4-2 to start SEC play isn’t that bad all things considered, so hopefully we keep winning and improving.

Damn I forgot we played but I guess that’s the kind of things that happen when you work 2 full time jobs 🤣

Sure glad we got the big W though way to go Cats!

That was Chandlers best all around game of the year. Props to him, I was on him hard about his D lately. Still needs to improve that but I can see he is working on it and playing more in stride.

Seems like they tighten up at home in close ones down the stretch and play more free on the road. Both the Missouri and Texas game had droughts at the end from the field
