Texas State (3/15/22)

[CMJ]

Biggest game in the history of Western Civilization

[Mean Green Matt]

First meeting since 2010 (I weirdly don’t remember that, specifically). We lead the all-time series 59-28. 

[southsideguy]

anyone got the email about tickets yet?

 

[Matt from A700]

Can't wait for our court to divide all of social media.

Before they lost in the Sun Belt tourney, they'd won nine in a row.  This is gonna be a tough one.

How many did UNT win before the UTEP trip?  15

And now we've lost two of three.  

 

I'm just saying we shouldn't overlook them.

Last meeting.

We really should have made the tournament that season.

Mean Green you know the standard. You can buckle or you can soar. Make it a festive night in Denton for us diehards. Attendance hopefully 1500. Many supporters from afar.

gmg

1,500 is not the standard. 

[CMJ]

I know!  In some ways I think that was JJ's best team.  Or at least was for the first half of the season.  But we really struggled in February before getting it back together right at the end only to get knocked out by a tremendous shot.

Agree. Need to bounce back and get mentally focused again. Don't overlook anyone.

Just to cover all our bases, I am requesting @meanrobsacrifice a dead chicken prior to the game. Preferably at half court prior to tip off. 

[ADLER]

Dear Grant,

We are playing Cats on Tuesday.

Please do not put the team in the kitty-litter grey uniforms.

Thank you

We can’t over look anyone, the way we have played the last two weeks. Even in the wins we haven’t shot the 3 well at all. And we all know about the free throw situation. 

1. Play great defense (we do)

2. Rebound the ball at both ends(we can)

3. Make free throws (we don’t)

4. Make open 3’s (we have but not lately)

Yeah, it's almost like we were "cursed" this past week.

Thank you for the independent evaluation.

And Stebo should eat a crow. Hey, it worked for a bowl victory over Cincinnati.

TSU-SM was on a nine game winning streak upon entering their conference tournament only to lose the opening round game to Louisiana Lafayette. 
 

Common opponents:

Rice: TSU-SM won by 11. 
UTA: Lost by 12 and won by 5.

1500 hopeful attendance ?  Expect more like 9,000 !

[NorthTexasSportsNetwork]

No way we get over 3K unfortunately, spring break and our fans still aren’t good.

 

[CMJ]

Yeah, I think should we win the opener our 2nd game would have solid attendance.  Not much expectation for the first one.  Would be happy to be wrong though.

If you wonder how much worse this years Belt was than C-USA: TxState was afforded 0(zero) Q1 or Q2 opportunities in league play. (for reference NT only had 1 Q1 opportunity, but at least got 5 Q2 ones). Belt not gonna get any better in basketball with whom they are adding.

Haha imo, the battle flag paint is too much. Everything else is great. The green also has never looked good on tv for some reason. The coloring looks different game by game. 
 

About the game tho, I know nothing about Texas State so if anyone has a cheat sheet, I’d love to see it.
