Wren, if you see this, ESPN+ is BEYOND FRUSTRATING!!!  One freeze up after the other for this game and most others.  It's not my internet..this only happens with ESPN+.  I'll just sit here with the pointer on the browser refresh button.  GMG

Naw. I have zero problems with ESPN+

Better than reading stats in newspaper next day.

Better than radio.

Better than espn3 or conference streaming.

Better than random cable channels.

I'm not a conspiracy theorist, but I notice it NEVER freezes during commercials...hmmmm

just got in-what is score

[bstnsportsfan3]

Rice have stepped up the D and they are hitting 3’s. NT was up 17. Now it’s a 11 point game at 63 - 52 with 7:56 left.

Missing a lot of easy shots. Very sloppy

I watch the ESPN+ feed via my ROKU stick into my TV.

Never had a problem.  Flawless stream.

The rice coach is almost as fun to watch with his reactions as Kermit davis was.

20 point win, but it’s a quick turnaround against a tough UTSA team. Hopefully we can go deep against them and wear them down.

Missed the first half.  We are really good defensively but they also missed a ton of shots.  I REALLY wish we were stronger at the free throw line, especially with our style of play.  All in all though good win and GREAT start to conference play.  These dudes are on a roll and we have already faced some of the more challenging competition in the conference. Grant and co are doing a great job with these guys and they seem bought in.  Especially after losing Ryan I’m really impressed with the response from our leaders plus Hamlet/Geu.  Mo, Simmons and Rose have all done what they need to do.  Rose has been a very different guy than we thought he’d be after showing up on the scene but he’s doing a great job embracing his role and staying positive.  I like these dudes.

UNT wins 12+, mark it.  For you gamblers, that would UNT -12.

That’s four in a row straight up and 3 out of 4 predicting the winning margin. I should open up shop. 

[Green Lantern]

Held another opponent under 60 pts. Our defense is gonna make us a legit contender in the CUSA Tourney this year.

Good win!

Well...LIGHT THE TOWER!!

GO MEAN GREEN!

[greenminer]

What is so remarkable to me is that we are 5 games into holding opponents < 60 ppg.  6 games ago Marshall scored 64, but 7 games ago WKU scored 61 IN A HALF.

Saturday should be a big crowd.  I saw something about a beer stein giveaway, too GMG

It was a good loud crowd for that number.  Good energy!

Seemed to have a really tough time with rebounds tonight.  And McCasland flipped out on Geu a few times.  Feel like we're going to have to tighten up our game against UTSA Thursday.

It's also our best conference start since the late 1980's.

Important Question: Did they say we get a free Cane's Box Combo with the win?  Denton Cane's only? 🤔

[flyonthewall]

A certain coach and a certain team from 2010 will be honored at the game on Thursday night.  We will have a great crowd and the pit will be rocking!!!!

[southsideguy]

I was wondering why bell had so much time on the court tonight,  He had a lot of turn overs and was not scoring.   Seemed like he was out there the longest.  Maybe resting Geu for UTSA? Zach looked good tonight.
