How does this lineup compare to the one that almost won it all?

everyone is back except one player. Then we have added Tyree Eady, Shannon Shorter, and Deng.

Eady is meen green basketball through and through tough physical guard.  Shorter is a very experienced pro and he looks to be in really, really good shape.  dj, coach hodge, and jj all talk about deng's heart and is refusal to lose any individual battle.

So yeah, not only do we have one more year of experience but our roster is better and deeper.....

I know I am questioning the GM, but was Huntsberry on the team last year?

I watched the highlight replay last night.  I had never seen the “77 game point” before.  Is this unique to TBT or is it also found in international or olympic rules ?

I think you're referring to the Elam Ending.  This is one of the selling points of this tournament, and been a part of it since 2018.

Designed to preserve a more natural end of game finish, the Elam Ending® calls for the game clock to be shut off in the fourth quarter. A Target Score is set by adding 8 points to the leading team’s score. The first team to reach the Target Score wins. For example, if the score is 80-72, the Target Score becomes 88. The first team to reach 88 wins. Once the game clock is eliminated, trailing teams are allowed to focus on getting stops, rather than preventing the clock from running out. This results in great defense and pure basketball possessions all the way through the end.

After testing the format out in 2017, The Basketball Tournament (TBT) implemented it for all games beginning in 2018. The results were eye-opening. Not only did players embrace the concept, but it also led to a markedly more electrifying and intense experience for fans.

I’m sure everyone know this, but

CEBL= Canadian Elite Basketball League

ELAM ENDING=Developed by and named for Nick Elam, a professor at Ball State University.   Every game ends on a made basket.

      UTSA/Memphis game

      Tech spiraled out of control so fast it's hard to pinpoint what exactly could have done better lol... against Memphis, there were just poor coaching decisions coupled with poor execution on those poor decisions. It sucks to look back on because not only do we practically give teams the ball in scoring position but we also blatantly leave points on the field. Memphis comes to mind with the 4th down attempt from our 41 (who does that in 2nd quarter) and the 4th down attempt from their 29 in the 3rd. That's a 10 point swing right there off coaching decisions assuming we make the field goal and the defense gets a stop. Those may seem like tall tasks but that 42 yard Memphis TD was their last score until 33 seconds left in the 3rd and our kicker hasn't missed since the Tech game.

      Goal Post Alert

      In all seriousness, I watched South Carolina roar the field after taking down A&M tonight, and thought, “This is what our fanbase needs.” SMU had apparently not beaten a ranked team at home in like 60 years or something crazy like that! Meanwhile we are poised to beat our second undefeated top 20 ranked team in a span of a few years and when this happens it needs to be celebrated! Who says cool sports things don’t happen in Denton, freaking Texas! Goal posts come down, get marched out and get tossed into the pond or placed on the hill like a trophy! 🏆 how instagrammable! Photos for the Maniacs, Talons and Infantry to use to recruit 2025 members and beyond. I’m all about derailing Army’s quest for the playoffs, because even if Boise loses they ain’t jumping 8 spots and keeping out their Heisman stud running back. Plus we need this win. It’s time to crush another undefeated dream. Most importantly we need a W. For those who think this puts too much pressure on the team to deliver a W against a stout team with a rested quarterback. It’s top level football. There are no guarantees but we all need to be prepared. Talons Up! GMG

      Goal Post Alert

      This is a public service announcement from DATCU Stadium where seismic tremors deep below the surface appear to be sending stress signals to the strong goalposts above. There are reports of Tifos being painted in dorms across campus stating, “Bring Goal Posts Here!” Friday night camping equipment is apparently being washed and packed in preparation for under the stars campfires. There is even a report of the Military coming to town. Be alert. Stay attentive my friends. GMG
