I think Rice has  hit every one of their 3s 😞

[akriesman]

Rice on fire.  Yikes.

[Pavlovs Eagle]

We looks messy and out defense is ineffective against their shots from distance.  Need to tighten up.

[RBTX]

Looking a little rusty and Rice can't miss right now.

[bstnsportsfan3]

Rice is on fire and we are sloppy. Gotta weather the storm, keep it close, and make adjustments at half. 

[emmitt01]

This is the best these Rice kids have played in their lives...and we are down 6 at 21-15.  

I’m not worried yet

[Salsa_Verde]

Got to weather the storm 

[akriesman]

Rice shooting 90% from the field.   Can't keep that up.

[bstnsportsfan3]

Holy crap rice missed a 3 

[97and03]

Thanks to all the 12 seed jinxes.

Does the away team not get any promo commericals on the ESPN+ feed?  There's a Rice commerical every commerical break.

well the home team runs all ESPN+ broadcasts so probably not

[97and03]

Fading down the stretch would be classic Mac but let’s see if they can respond 

[RBTX]

Each time we get within 6 it seems we make a silly mistake.

we would prob have a lead if we stopped turning it over

Is the ESPN feed shitty or is it just my crappy foreign internet fed through my shitty VPN?

Yes to all the above.

Got it fixed but didn’t like what I saw. Lots of panic shots. Again I wonder if all the late season tanking isn’t in their heads.

This is a bad Rice team so I think we will get through this minor funk but if not then there could be a problem. 
Really want to see this team run the table. 

[TheColonyEagle]

Are they tired?

They should be rested 

 

leaving A LOT of shots short 

[bstnsportsfan3]

Frustrating first half. I think rice is shooing about 90% from 3 and we keep turning the ball over. Hold on to the ball, cut down the open looks and we can win this in the 2nd half.

It's the VPN + Non-Merica internet.  Feed is solid on my ESPN+ app on Apple TV.

[Salsa_Verde]

Sigh.

Sorry but this team had a week off and should be relaxed and rested. Unfortunately reminds me of Littrell after a bye week. 
 

I actually think that unlike SL teams this team can pull this game out of the fire.
