NT 53 ----------- UTSA 46 8:30 to go Had a chance for a nice fast break, but Jones couldn't convert.

NT 53 ----------- UTSA 44 9:51 to go Roadrunners were starting make me sweat a bit, but a nice spurt to get a more comfortable margin again.

NT 45 ----------- UTSA 38 14:14 to go Like the way we have begun this half.

NT 37 ----------- UTSA 32 Halftime Solid half, but we're playing their pace, not ours.

NT 31 ----------- UTSA 28 3:08 to go Gotta hope Ivy-Curry cools off.

NT 24 ----------- UTSA 20 7:09 to go Roadrunners making us play faster than we want and Ivy-Curry is really putting on a show.

NT 21 ----------- UTSA 10 10:25 to go Playing well, but Scott with three early fouls.

NT 15 ----------- UTSA 9 11:43 to go Defense playing well...already forced the Roadrunners to have an extended drought. Hopefully it is one of a few.

NT 7 ----------- UTSA 5 15:50 to go Jones looks like he never left! Crowd filling in. All is right with the world.

Looks like a light turnout from the early TV imagery.

Rice is low key playing good ball right now.

Since we're not in contention for the regular season title, I guess it's not technically a "must win" but I do consider this one. We need some positive momentum to get started.

A five point lead with four minutes to go isn't much of a margin at all.

FAU beats SMU.

I don't recall the exact stat, but sometime near the end of last year they mentioned Perry's shooting percentage with under 2 minutes left in the game and it was crazy high (like 70% or something ridiculous like that). That's why he was so beloved. The whole "great players aren't always great, they're just great when they have to be" thing.

I doubt everyone comes back even though I wish most would. These days in college sports everyone transfers. That said, if this team had been healthy the last month or so, I really think we'd have at least two more wins, which would put us in the mix for the #2 seed depending on who we beat..

The squad definitely needs the break.

To be fair, some of that was we fouled the last several minutes to extend the game.

UAB 71 ---------- NT 62 Final

UAB 56 ---------- NT 46 4:51 to go Blazer TO. Trying to make it interesting.

UAB 54 ---------- NT 38 7:38 to go Not meant to be today it appears.

UAB 49 ---------- NT 36 10:55 to go Need one of our stretches where we hold the opponent scoreless for 6-8 minutes.

UAB 49 ---------- NT 36 12:07 to go We're wavering now.
