Rice (1/31/15)

UNTFan23 · February 1, 2015

We're going to have to man up. They are just destroying our zone.

Halftime

Actually, considering how well the owls are shooting, it's surprising we're this close.

Army of Dad · February 1, 2015

That was an ugly half on D.

UNT90 · February 1, 2015

Could we actually reverse the trend and have a better second half than first?

It used to be in games like this when you tie when coming from a pretty large lead the crows gets rowdy. Not tonight. :no:

No but this might be the best student turnout of the season.

Huge run by the good guys!

Quoner · February 1, 2015

Great defensive half after they went man (plus Rice didn't seem to have a plan B.)

UNT90 · February 1, 2015

A reversal of good first half, bad second half.

So I'm a little confused. Am I supposed to be happy that UNT won or pissed off that Tony Benford won?

Army of Dad · February 1, 2015

He looked to be in a lot of pain. Hopefully he heals quickly.

Yes when they went to man it changed the entire game.

Quoner · February 1, 2015

Yes when they went to man it changed the entire game.

Optimist could say: We opened poorly, tried to play through it, made the adjustments and then outclassed them for a half plus a minute or so.

Pessimist could say: A flat, unmotivated start, a glaring lack of response to an obvious problem that should have been addressed sooner, followed by having so much more talent that once it was pointed in the right direction, the outcome was inevitable.

I'll just say GMG.

Switching to man when the opposing team gets hot from 3 is ideal and a very common practice. I think this is Benford's first time to switch out of necessity that I have seen.

Good comeback W.

Andrew · February 1, 2015

I do not mind our zone, but when we give up 2 or 3 threes we need to switch to man for a while. I get the benefits of a zone but we should have gone man before the second half started. Holding rice to 20% from the field in the second half is solid.
