Pretty bad game from three for us. First half was as good as anyone handled us in the paint this year 

It would be great if we could start scheduling games with you guys during the regular season in both basketball and football.

Feels like it's gonna come right down to the final shot.

I hear Ron Howard's voice saying "and it did".

Great win tonight. But again with the attendance. That was like 2X '2661'. Really happy smu lost though; maybe these are the prices we have to pay for such things.

Well.... I am too, but imagine being able to go to the game.

Not as good as back when we were playing Texas Tech in football in 2000.  We were trailing like 13-0 at the time, and I turned to everyone around me and said "Interception returned for a touchdown."  Literally the very next play that's what happened.  I swore off trying to really predict plays after that since I was a legend at that point.

 

It became such a gag that it still gets trotted out amongst a few of my friends to this day whenever I'm in town.

Looked like a lot more than 2600 on TV... 

The attendance counter is a work from home position.  He/She only counts what they could see from the main camera angle.

I hear those 61 Bobans will be attending the luncheon, if anyone wants to meet them

North Texas (26-8) never trailed in the contest despite three ties including the final one at 63-all after a layup by Todd with 10 seconds remaining. The Mean Green held the final shot, as Jasper Floyd made a drive to the right of the basket, stopped, turned and sank a fadeaway jumper with one second left.
