Not the best close to the half. Big shot by Mark.

I know nothing of this team, but can we keep shooting at this percentage?

Mark saved that last minute. Let’s get this lead up to 15 in the first 4 of the second half.

That clock never stopped between the basket and inbounds pass

Isn’t that just the last minute of the second half + OT in college?

Live by the J, die by the J boys. We be livin right now. Keep attacking and make it easy to close it out in the second half.

We really needed halftime, shot by Mark to close it out was big…

Xavier is a good offensive team that goes on scoring runs -- their ability to score from behind 3pt line keeps them in a lot of games. 

That has me concerned.
They're way too close to not be making their three point shots yet, which is what they're known for!

Y'all bitching about Mark are ignoring his return after injury.  He wasn't ready to run the point until recently.

From up 13 to only 8, but that tough make from Mark leaves us with a much better feeling than only up by six.

Will be a battle in the second half. Have to get back to working the paint for easy shots and avoid or at least minimize our typical scoring drought.

That’s definitely a take. Reality is Mark creates his own shot and attacks worlds better than Pope or Larry. So are teams really going to put their best defender on Mark with Tre on the floor. No.

They're not gonna do that but we've also seen Mark travel get caught in the air and make turnovers this post season. 

I'm not ready to die on this hill but I think busting it out late can only help us, tendency wise

Yeah I forget this part

I don't wanna hear shit from the halftime commentators when Xavier was the favorite.  Fuck you--walk your ass beside the wagon, but you can't ride.

Richard Earl Johnson the 3rd?!?

So his first and last nicknames could be Dick?

I so love March Madness. Inefficient operations like Rodney Terry Texas Basketball can become belle of the ball. Or not.

erebody has a puncher's chance. 

Too late...  my bad

Damn impressive offense for Horns...

All kidding aside, Texas got some rolls first half that have to plan will on not necessarily falling in the second.  Play in the paint and drive for points or fouls.  Play aggressive, aggressive, aggressive and don't settle for perimeter shots.  Texas has the bodies to beat Xavier.  Work.

Mark playing amazing. 

Tre could play so much better, needs to let the game come to him. 

Weaver getting more announcer love in March Madness than he has all season. 

Role players like Onyema and Kent imposing their will. 

 

Only up 9, and I really can't figure this out. 

Tre needs to stay glued to his guy on the perimeter; let him drive by you because you've got help.  His guy has hit what, three 3 pointers because Tre was late getting to him.

Well, he didn't play between early January and early March.

We should have about 6 more FTs. Officials swallowed their whistles early. Xavier can only foul to keep our guards out of the lane. Kaluma was fouled every time he drove the ball.

That’s the best I’ve seen us play this year. I have zero confidence it can continue. Fully expect Xavier to get hot and ride the crowd.

They're shooting 54% from the field. 

Neither team is really getting stops.

Played pretty damn good and only up 8. Gonna be a close second half.

Meh. They're 5 of 11 from 3. I'll take up 8. 

Need to take the ball right at Fremantle and Conwell. Get those guys playing tentative/out of the game will really limit their offense….

Wtf was that commercial??

Xavier can't bang down low like they do in the SEC SEC, keep going to the rim on them.

Was that Lady GaGa?
That's apparently the "theme song" of the tournament so get used to it lol

No one who has watched this team thinks they’re about to build and maintain a 20 point lead. It will be a fight until the end.
