GoFrogs: TCU at No. 23 Texas Tech MBB Preview

[SousaFrog]

FINAL: 81-82, Texas Tech.

 

[Boomhauer]

Man, brutal loss

 

[Big Frog II]

crap

 

[LVH]

Same way we lost to Texas

Too sloppy down the stretch

 

[The Artist Formerly Known as PhormerPhrog]

They're really storming the court?

 

[Double D]

Lost that game on 2 lay ups when we fell asleep on defense. Dam!!

 

[hometown frog]

Absolutely gave that one away. Simply cannot be that dead offensively down the stretch on the road and expect to be considered a good team.
brutal

 

[froglash88]

Refs didn’t help

 

[froglash88]

TCU with an absolute choke job

 

[Volare]

Unwatchable BS sport.

Stop watching.

 

[froglash88]

Got lazy on a couple of shots

Defense doesn’t see both way too many times. Get caught watching the ball and lose sight of their man.

Choke job big time because of taking plays off on offense and defense

Can’t do that on the road where the refs feel the pressure of making calls for the home team

 

[This Ain't Chopped Liver]

Tech was 24 of 28 shooting free throws for 86%. The Frogs gave Tech that game at the foul line by committing stupid fouls. I don’t know why coaches put up with that, they need to coach that out of their team. You can play aggressive tough as nails defense without all the fouls and come out way ahead.

Tech had 7 more attempts and 8 more made free throws than the Frogs. That is on TCU and not the refs.

disappointed we ran a similar play to the KSU game at the end. we had no movement and tossed up a prayer. we were lucky to have one of the two answered I guess, but you have to get some sort of movement to create an open look. you can't just have one guy dribble around for 10-15 seconds every time.

 

[PurpleBlood87]

Recorded the game but didn't add extra time.
Why can't this team play strong in the last five minutes of the first and second half?
They are just brutal during that time period.
What a disappointing loss.
Up 10 points in the second half and can't finish the game.

 

[PurpleBlood87]

Kind of glad the recording ended because I probably didn't want to see the end of the game.

 

[PurpleBlood87]

Another flagrant foul kills the Frogs.

 

[McFroggin]

Refs didn’t help

I’m seeing the same comment on every MBB thread when we lose. At some point, it is just an us problem.

 

[Bizarro Frog]

how about a travel on the inbounds

A double dribble with a travel combo then an inbound pass with not a single dribble and 3 steps. They call it tighter in my son’s 3rd grade league.

 

[Frog Wild]

Can’t do that on the road where the refs feel the pressure of making calls for the home team

Why do the refs never feel the pressure of making calls for TCU at home?

Why do the refs never feel the pressure of making calls for TCU at home?

I think for the same reason other teams tied or behind us in standings are ranked higher. Perception.
