I think it wouldn't mean anything if we were... say... KU. Or someone that pretty much loses every game, down by multiple scores at the half, and nowhere to go but up. But since we've been "in" many of Charlie's games at the half, or at least within striking distance, it shows that we don't have what it takes in many of those instances to make adjustments and create something out of nothing. Even more telling? 165-118. That's our opponents' third quarter against ours since Charlie got here. We're basically handing the opponent +2 ppg just by PLAYING a third quarter against them. And it's even worse if you don't count the ND and UTEP games from this year. We come out of the locker room flat every 3rd quarter. I'd love to say that there's no rhyme or reason to it, but it does seem to have a rhyme/reason, and not one we'd like to talk about.
The issue is really the third quarter when Texas comes out and lays an egg because they made no adjustments on either side of the ball to match the opponent's halftime adjustments.
