HOLY SHNIKES!!!!!! Got to under four with Jeter and ALmeida on the bench and expanded the lead!

Fouls are not going to help the cause. Texas is getting close to shooting two every foul.

That call on Jeter hurts. Defenders have had hands on ball handlers all game and now they call it

There is a Bear in the house!!!!!!!!!!!!

I say Doc tries to get it around 5 minutes to go with Almeida on the bench. Hopefully the team keeps it up and allows this. Almeida is playing huge(leterally and figuratively) today

Richardson is KILLING them with his dribble penetration. This is the BEST this team has looked offensively all year. PLEASE be able to keep this up

This aggressiveness being shown right now is what I have wanted to see all year. GREAT offensive flow. And Almeida is too much for the Horns

Walker with a huge flush coming off the baseline

Holy crap a NU dunk

I don't care who is open, they can't leave J'Covan Brown alone EVER

And I'll be damned if it does come back and bite them.

Jeter has to do a better jobthan that on going to get the ball. Another TO on a possession that could have cut it to one or tied it up. These little things add up and can bite ya in the end.

Almeida, if he keeps the fouls in check, could be a huge factor in this one. He is a hand ful and has the size to go against their strength

They had gotten out of position by doubling in bad spots or on bad Horns(Hill). Texas is too good swinging the ball around to the open shooter to make poor defensive decisions.

WHY DOUBLE HILL???? Stupid

OK, whomever is covering Matt Hill on defense needs to double at all times. Let him score, if he can make the shots. Consider them welcome home gifts Matt

12-11 under 12 timeout. Think Drake Beranek saw talent, speed and quickness like this in the RMAC at UNK.

Ubel and Hill another dream pillow fight matchup

JCovan Brown. DO NOT LEAVE HIM. He is a spark for the Horns

9-7 first media TO. Diaz looks to be an absolute nonfactor today. He is just getting moved out of the paint very easily

Coming out in the zone I like that maybe

Slept on it and the hangover doesn't give me anymore optimism than I had last night. I just do not like the matchups down low for NU. Way to much athleticism in burnt orange and white. Their strength and quickness will give Diaz, Almeida and Ubel fits all game. This is the kind of game in which McCray gets into foul trouble cause he will be caught in a helpside defensive position a ton today. And Parl Celini, actually NU has been suprisingly good rebounding the ball. They have out rebounded most Big XII teams including KU in Lawrence. However, their bugaboo still remains giving up second chance points like you said. They are a little better this year, but still it is one of my keys to every game. Best matchup to look for today Matt Hill vs Brian Diaz. It may look like a pillow fight down on the low block

Here is the deal. Texas is a good team playing absolutely great right now. They can hurt ya in so many ways, inside, outside, running the floor, or in the half court. I think NU can match up with Tejas' backcourt very well. But down low...Here in lies the problem IMO. McCray has the body type and athleticism to matchup with either Hamilton, Thompson, or Johnson. ANy of the other guys(Almeida, Diaz, Ubel) will get eaten alive albeit strength wise or quickness. And if Toney gets into any kind of foul trouble...big problems. Now saying all that. Texas is a usual suspect when it comes to laying eggs in the Bob. I can't say they will overlook NU(absolutely assinine the way Doc gets the guy to play D and the record at home), but it could be close. I just don't think it happens. A win and it is a huge tourney resume scalp, but it is a tall task and I just don't like the matchups. Let me drink some more and then sleep on it to divulge deeper tomorrow.

Tough night for Mike in the semi's at state. Took all of 13 seconds to dispatch a kid from Oneill St. Mary's who was 34-8 on the year. Onto the finals with a whopping 51 seconds of mat time. Takes on Nate Bazata of Howells(38-2) in the finals. Could be a good match. Might take over a minute.
