    Second half just started. Baylor showing more firepower so far. Ibeh is so very limited offensively, he's missing point blank frequently. In fact, our bigs, outside of Turner, are not doing it on the offensive end. Nothing new, right? :angry:

    Guys are playing hard; giving it their best. Dammit, they deserve to get some breaks their way.

    BU missing a lot of shots in the 2nd half. Horns are getting killed on rebounds. Horns are hanging with them and down only 3 with about 11 min. They can win this game if they focus, play some D and put their foot on the gas.

    We are playing horrendously. We are the number 4 rebounding team in the country and we are being out-rebounded 36-17 right now. Taylor has not played much. I am not sure how we are in this. Baylor is on a 4 game win streak including a win at Iowa State. Maybe Baylor is having a letdown game?

    Oddly enough it was yancy with the offensive rebound and put back under the basket. This has been a strange game.

    Seriously, how is it that each year our team cannot hit baskets? I am no basketball guru but I think you have to put the ball in the basket to win games. Do we only recruit guys that only play defense?

    Oddly enough we have a better FG% than Baylor right now. Both of these teams have played terribly today for whatever the reason. Baylor's shooting seems to be improving and our rebounding seems to be improving as the game is coming to a close.

    Well then Holmes turns around and takes an extremely long 3 when we should have just gone inside for a 2...

    Great energy to tie the game. Refs afraid to call the foul at the end. Otherwise Texas is at the line to win the game.

    I would say no foul on anyone and no ejections. Seemed like a big nothing to me.

    Does anyone know how these rules are supposed to work? I feel like none of the players from either team should be ejected.

    Give Barnes credit for getting the ball into Taylor's hands and telling him to cut to the hole to get his shot. And big kudos to Taylor. He's got guts and he CAN hit the floater! Kudos to all the horns for keeping up the fight and never giving up!!

    Texas wins 61-59 in overtime! That has to be one of all around strangest games of the year. We played horribly for the first 35 minutes. We were down by 10 points with 6:41 left. We come back to tie the game on a Holmes 3 and a bunch of Felix's 3s (Felix was 3-5 from three point range). Holmes after being the hero takes a terrible 3 shot when we have an opportunity to win as time expires. We go to overtime, seem to be in control, then there is an unnecessary ejection of a bunch of players. With our big men gone, Taylor hits a game winning shot. Crazy game, glad we won. Let's take care of business against Kansas State.

    Very odd process as far as ejections go. Of the horns ejected, Cam, Prince, and Lammert I don't think did anything at all. But I guess the rules are if you leave the bench, that's a big no no. Despite the fact they were literally in the very back of the scuffle.

    Good win for the Horns though! :yippee:
    Better not sleep on KSU at home, they love to crush our dreams time and time again.

    The confrontation between the players is on the refs. They let Baylor get away with pushing, jerking and shoving our players around the entire game and didn't call ****. We had finally had enough. That is on them. Horrible officiating.

    I agree with you old65. On the last play of regulation, when holmes missed the 3, we had guys positioned for the rebound and they were mugged and slugged over the back and the refs closed their eyes to it. Terrible no call.

    Good point caryhorn. I gave Holmes some grief on the miss, but we did have guys in position for a tip in getting mugged. On the overall Holmes showed life today. Maybe we can get a big senior day performance? I mean, the senior day is pretty much for him and one walk-on.

    It was not just the last play, the refs let Baylor get away with it the entire game. We finally had enough with that forearm to Taylor's face being the last straw. That Bozo Reed Gettes (?) said he was not looking at Taylor when he landed a forearm on his face. Holmes was not looking at Williams in the WVa game before he coldcocked him. Didn't seem to matter in that game. How about that intentional fouls on Felix when the Baylor thug reach out to grab his arm when Felix was past him. How was that not an intentional foul?

    One of the worst officiated games I have ever seen. I was hoping the refs would give us a first and 10 sometime in the game. We just didn't play thug ball the way Baylor did,

    Just watched the recorded game. 1st half was a little sloppy but Wow! I'm just glad the boys toughened up and didn't lay down like a bunch of ******* when the guy bowed Taylor! He may be little but he's got some fight! Baylor boys and fans are a bunch of thugs! I don't care what anyone says! We needed to see some more fight from our boys. Got the adrenalin going to finish strong! A friend who was at the game said afterwards when the teams were "shaking" hands after the win, you'd hear "good game" from our guys and "F*** You" from each of theirs. Such class!!!! We have GOT to win this next one!!!! Hook 'Em!!!!
