Expectations for UTA game?

[diehardUNTfan]

Thursday night's game at Oklahoma gave UNT fans some much needed hope. They were 30 point dogs. UNT tied the game heading into halftime and only lost by 10.  Will the mean green come out with energy and pull of an upset over UT Arlington tonight?

Don't know about expectations... but looking decent on defense so far. UNT 15, UTA 11

[Cooley]

17-14  UNT  7:23  1 Qtr

I like the offensive rebounding so far. Not equally impressed with the defensive rebounding.

[DeepGreen]

Who in the hell is that ESPN3 announcer?...?   From Boone, NC possibly?  Talk about hick sounding!

[Cooley]

Its a turnover when Lawson shots from the outside. Tied up 17-17

[Cooley]

22-21  UNT  3:26  1st Qtr

[outoftown]

If UTA were shooting even half decent from the stripe, UNT would be down about 5. as it is, UNT is still up one.

[Cooley]

24-22 UTA (Halftime)

[outoftown]

UNT has had some real problems hanging on to the ball on offense the last 5 minutes.

[Andrew]

A combined 7-27 from the free line line.

First time for me to see the team on ESPN 3. Started watching when they were up 17-13. So far what I have seen is very bad basketball overall. Can’t. Judge it any other way right now. Three point and free throws? Are they our weak points. If so what is our strength

I fell into a depression nap and woke up at halftime. This team looks not so good. Now the pg is being carried off.

Looks like Duffy may be gone for a while now. He was putting zero weight on that leg. Now he is barley limping back to the lockeroom with help. 

 

If he goes down we will be out 4 scholarship players and only have 5 guards on scholarship.

The teams are averaging 2 fouls a minute this half. This is boring to watch regardless of who is leading.

Both teams look not good.

I think part of it is the refs calling to many fouls. It’s really not letting anyone get into a rhythm.

[outoftown]

UNT rally on a good run the last 5 minutes, back to within 3.

[RiseUNT]

Both teams hitting shots now 

[TreeFiddy]

Wow, what a flop by a 7 footer.

This is the best we have played in 5 years and we have a walk-on out there due to fouls and injuries. McCasland definitely gets the best out of every guy on his bench.

Agreed, and the refs and just waiting to call fouls. They have to make sure they hit their quota... 🙄

[Andrew]

Duffy back on the bench but with his head down and a lot of ice on his knee.

[Andrew]

Woolridge fouls out and Duffy injured, but the walk-on Draper is stepping up tonight. 

[Andrew]

Lawson 0-6 from the free throw line misses two that would have put us up by two in clutch time.
