Louisiana Tech (1/29/22)

[Hunter Green]

Off to a hot start.

[CMJ]

NT 13 ------- LA Tech 12

 

 

11:53 to go

 

In a bit of an offensive drought.  Both teams getting after it.

[All About UNT]

How is Lofton so overweight?

[CMJ]

NT 19 ------- LA Tech 17

 

 

7:26 to go

 

McBride always shoots so well in the first half.  We need to bottle it for the second.

Well obviously but somehow he is so athletic and yet pretty overweight for someone who works out a lot

[CMJ]

LA Tech 27 ------- NT 23

 

 

3:46 to go

 

Bulldogs definitely took control for a few minutes, but things have stabilized.

He eats too much. 

[Tom McKrackin]

Disappointing to be down 3 but we are on the road and a half left to go.  

[CMJ]

LA Tech 31 ------- NT 28

 

 

Halftime

 

Not a bad half on the road.  Time to regroup.

I was just kidding. His proportions don’t make a ton of sense to me either. Especially because he’s quite athletic and quick footed while carrying that kind of size. You’d expect him to be plodding.

[emmitt01]

Lofton could be in New Orleans by now with all the walking he has done

[GrandGreen]

NT looks to me that the big game atmosphere has them making errors that don't usually happen with this team.  

Perry is definitely not close to 100% and that maybe too hard for NT to overcome. 

Down 3 is nothing, but have to stop Lofton's easy baskets.  

[Green Lantern]

Fouling on the threes HAS to stop. Inexcusable.

[BillySee58]

One of the weaknesses of our defense seems to be fouling three point shooters. Just like down low, if you can, just go straight up. Don’t go into them.

[CMJ]

Things are unraveling.  

[DeepGreen]

Damn!  I blinked and it’s 42-31 LT.  What happened?

[Andrew]

We don’t look ourself and it seems we don’t have enough bench to shake it up. Perry doesn’t seem right and Abou in foul trouble. Somebody has to step up soon! 

[Gibbz]

That Ous foul on the desperation Lofton 3 flipped the game.

[keith]

Lofton is a hell of a player, but he sure does get away with a lot of fouls. 

[BillySee58]

Have to tighten it up on defense. We aren’t designed to get back in games quickly offensively. Need to start holding them down and get them on a big scoreless streak.

[UNTFan23]

We're in some serious trouble if we don't change something on both sides of the ball.

15 points in 5 possessions. Great shot making + defensive lapses.

[bstnsportsfan3]

This is flat embarrassing right now

LA Tech 48 ------- NT 34

 

 

15:18 to go

 

Tough to overcome a 15-0 run.
