GoFrogs: TCU at Texas Preview

[tcumaniac]

The refs didn’t cost us the game. Anyone saying that is either absolutely stupid or knows nothing about basketball.

You have some major Longhorn Stockholm syndrome.

Winning on the road is hard. Winning on the road against a ranked team playing your 3rd game in 5 days is even harder.

The one sidedness from the officiating 100% changed the outcome of the game. If the game is officiated fairly, TCU wins tonight. The fact we made stupid mistakes doesn’t change that.

We throw the ball into the same place every time. Of course the other team knows where it is going and can make it extremely difficult.

I implemented multiple press offenses when I coached and rarely had trouble against the press. It looks like we only have one and it absolutely needs to be adjusted.

We aren't a team that shoots many jumpers. I agree.

No they didn't. The fact that they called 22 fouls on TCU and 15 on UT indicates no bias whatsoever. Just happened that way. Yeah. Right.

 

[Dogfrog]

Reminds me of some of those Arkansas games when they were hacking, slapping, scratching, hand checking and tripping and you’d look up midway through the 2nd half and realize the other team had 3-4 more fouls.

It’s just part of basketball officiating that gives aggressive teams an advantage, especially at home. Some teams press and foul so frequently that the refs have to swallow their whistles so they don’t disqualify the entire team. They shot 29 FT’s, we shot 11.

We don’t attack on offense, defense or pretty much any where for that matter. We’re easy to press, easy to guard, and most nights easy to play against.

 

[Armadillo]

That really stunk.

Thank God baseball is here.

 

[LVH]

The crowd got into the game after being dead for 30 minutes. Once they took the lead it was over

College baseball is irrelevant

College Mens ice hockey brings in more revenue than college baseball and so does women's college basketball

That doesn't make it irrelevant.
Just means it doesn't make much money.

Don't you know baseball is irrelevant?

This team is almost always it's own worst enemy in regards to turning the ball over and generally making bad decisions with the ball. That's nothing new at all and happens in almost every game we play, win or lose. So that's clearly a huge issue that contributed to tonight's result.

I'm also certain that there aren't many teams who win games with a -18 disparity at the FT line. Everyone can judge for themselves how much was bad officiating but it's pretty much inarguable that it was a big factor in the game.

In my personal opinion, almost any 40 minute college basketball game that sees either team attempting 29 free throws probably had some poor officiating involved, regardless of FT disparity.

 

[PurpleBlood87]

one question, do you know what the disparity in free throws was at half by chance?

you can answer when you are done with the tantrum

Texas 29
TCU 11

 

[ReedFrawg]

Shout out to Lampkin for playing very tough thru injury. Love that guys effort and heart.

TCU will not win another conference game this season. Go watch the Indoor National Tennis Champs next Wednesday vs Michigan. It’s outside. Free pizza. And for big matches there is open bar.

What level did you coach?

 

[Atomic Frawg]

you want seriously bad?

the inability to inbound the basketball or how about this really bad stat, 9 turnovers and 2 assists. that is the second half numbers for the frogs offense which was a bigger problem than the disparity in free throws

don't even get me started on shot selection with less than 4 minutes to go in a close ball game

If you go back and look through my posts, you'll see that I abhor DATOs (dumb ___ turnovers). They drive me batty. So, yeah, I don’t disagree. 9 TOs is potentially 27 pts that could have been scored. Still, you expect to see FTs a little closer.

But how much revenue do they bring in compared to men's ice hockey?

You see the ref come up to the Beard before game and give him a bro hug? Was a little unprofessional.

 

[froglash88]

What level did you coach?

HS Girls, HS Boys and D2 College Women

Was lucky to coach in 3 Florida State Final Fours (2 as assistant and 1 as head coach)
Had a 5’9” female who could dunk (college). Also coached and help Tidwell land Sandora.

Just some facts to support Maniac’s claim of me being some type of longhorn.
