[quote name="STiger85" post="958328" timestamp="1296528688"] I have not seen James play soccer. So I can only go by what is typed on here. And some of it is on the edge of insanity. What I have seen him do is give some of his spare time to coach a group of 5th and 6th graders in basketball on Thurs. and Sat. He has been my sons coach for 4 or 5 years. And if he is as passionate about soccer as he is his basketball team, then he shouldn't be to bad at soccer. But I do believe this thread is going a little overboard. [/quote] a relevant James Trabing post. 

how glad are you that the show finished in time for you to avoid questions about the first half of the UT/aTm game?

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="957828" timestamp="1296446853"] Be careful bullets13.............hfmom08 is taller than you!!!!! :D :D :D [/quote] yes, but i'm betting you're rounder than her, so i'll just hide behind you if she gets out of line.

[/quote] Go figure..Horns have had one bad game this year (USC). They are..what 4-5 points away from having one loss. [/quote] and those two other losses are against teams currently ranked #4 and #6.

Watching this game, the first thought that came to mind was "how bad is atm?"  then i realized, what i should be thinking is "how good is texas?"  Texas is playing the best basketball in the country over the past 3 weeks.

How many games have U seen them play this year, and [b]have U seen the other 'top Dawgs' in the state??[/b][/quote] Nederland sure hasn't, and when they do, they'll probably lose.  They're going to have to beat at least 4 teams better than any on their schedule up to this point in order to win state.  They're a very good team in this area, but this area is way down in 4A/5A basketball this year.

17 of the top-25, and 7 of the top 10 teams in the country lost at least one game last week.

Sweet!

Round two starts Tuesday! [/quote] glad to hear that :).  it's all in fun.  maybe i'll meet you out in sour lake in a couple of weeks.

isn't that the truth :)

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="957625" timestamp="1296404953"] [quote author=bullets13 link=topic=77928.msg957527#msg957527 date=1296362154] Great 10 day stretch for the horns!  Double-digit wins vs. #11 aTm, @ #2 Kansas, @ Okie Lt, and vs. #13 Mizzou!  They're 6-0 in the Big XII for the first time in school history, and they're already through the meat of their schedule.  They have a big game in College Station on Monday, and after that, they finish conference play against 9 unranked teams.  If they can beat the Ags monday [b](who are coming off an embarassing loss to Nebraska[/b]), they have a fairly reasonable shot at a 16-0 conference record going into the Big XII tourney.  [/quote] Nebraska was favored to win the game by 2.5 points at home, so I don't see how the loss was that embarrassing.  Nebraska is 15-5 and should make the tourney.  Still A&M didn't come to play and it showed.  They will have to play much better tomorrow against tu to have a chance. [/quote] Favored, smavored.  Nebraska's pretty decent, but they've played an awful schedule this year.  Here's a list of all of the quality teams they've played this year: Vandy, Davidson (i'm stretching here), Mizzou, Kansas, and aTm.  They lost 4 of those 5.  They also lost to a pretty weak TT team.  Regardless of the line, this wasn't a good loss for the Ags.

With #3, #5, and #7 all losing, Texas should be a top-5 team in the next poll!

#3 Duke falls to UR St. John's!

Texas is the obvious favorite.  The Horns are on an incredible roll, and the ags are struggling a bit.  That being said, these are two great teams, and it's going to be a tough one for the horns at college station.  two weeks ago i would've said the aggies would win, but i'm going to say the horns take it by 7, 77-70.

PNG really won a game 7 to 5?

Great 10 day stretch for the horns!  Double-digit wins vs. #11 aTm, @ #2 Kansas, @ Okie Lt, and vs. #13 Mizzou!  They're 6-0 in the Big XII for the first time in school history, and they're already through the meat of their schedule.  They have a big game in College Station on Monday, and after that, they finish conference play against 9 unranked teams.  If they can beat the Ags monday (who are coming off an embarassing loss to Nebraska), they have a fairly reasonable shot at a 16-0 conference record going into the Big XII tourney. 

the horns win by 13, despite going 16-34 from the FT line (and they actually made 5 of their last 6).

[/quote]I thought they started pressing when they were up 5-2 midway through the 1st.  I could be wrong, though. [/quote] well, dove said something about them running. 

Pitt survives by 3.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="957489" timestamp="1296356684"] [quote author=FanintheStands link=topic=79399.msg957443#msg957443 date=1296351015] BTW, why did HF start pressing?!?  It seemed like they were better off in a half-court defense.  They only hurt themselves when they pressed. [/quote]BTW!  Notice when HF started running the ball, they began to score better? As far as the defense, too many holes and no adjustments other than subbing. ;D [/quote] i'll agree with that.  when HF was setting up in the half court, and setting up in the half court D, they went about 10 minutes between the 1st and 2nd quarters where the only shot they got off at all was little dove's 3/4 length shot at the end of the 1st.  they were also getting trapped like crazy because they weren't looking to run off of rebounds.

Texas started the game on an 11-0 run, and they lead by 11 at the half, thanks in part to a pretty ugly looking 3 by Mizzou to beat the 1st half buzzer.  Texas started great, and they've been solid every since.

#2 pitt only up 2 points with 3 minutes left vs. UR, 12-8 Rutgers.
