UAB can score with anyone, but they are not good defensively. Control the pace and minimize turnovers, and for God's sake--no scoring droughts!

Looks like we open as a 4.5-point favorite.

And limit the number of fouls committed.

Is the game at 4:00 as publicized by UNT or 4:30 as schedule shows for ESPN?

With the interminable timeouts and replay reviews......these games of late, have been lasting well over 2 hours. And since they have thirty minutes between games.....I'd bet this game starts much closer to 5 than 4.

1) Start fast (or, at least, not slow).  We can’t count on digging out of a hole 

Please just don't fall behind 22-2 again...

This is weird. I have it set to record and my ATT UVerse has it at 4pm. 

We need to control the pace of the game but not allow our offense to stand around. We are so much better when we shot within the rhythm of the offense and not forcing shots off of one on one plays. Energy on defense, no stupid fouls, rebound and play within ourselves on offense.

Record the program after too. The game will start no earlier than 4:30PM with the mandatory break in between.

If we have a good start we win.  If we start crappy we lose.  It’s really that simple.  Also need to get their big star in foul trouble.

Tulane doesn’t want their tourney to end. They’re gonna try to get this thing to 6:00pm

Nice. 

 

Also, Newell just got smoked in the face. 

[UNTLifer]

What a BS call on Lorient when Yack slipped and fell.  Once I want to see Ross go apeshit on a bad call.

NT 9 ---------- UAB 8

 

11:22 to go

 

Both defenses settling in.

[Hunter Green]

Lindeberg on the bench is hurt.

[UNTLifer]

I didn’t realize Yack was the Second Coming.  At least he is per these announcers. 

Another bad call.  This one on Sissoko.

Working on his foot, the one he rolled when they called the foul on Lorient. 

[NorthTexasWeLove]

Atin... DRIVE THE BALL!!!!!!!!!!

NT 15 ---------- UAB 13

 

7:36 to go

 

I feel like we should have made more hay while Lendeborg was on the bench.

Agree.  But we're NOT in foul trouble, rebounding pretty well, and the BEST thing is we aren't down 22-2.

[TheFranchise]

Loving the offensive rebounding game we got going 

[TheFranchise]

Sissoko had a wide open basket there
