Keep it close on this initial run and then collect ourselves and make a run with under ten.

Bad turnover for LU, and they draw a foul in transition.

Miss the first. 49-44 TTU.
Banks in the second. 50-44 TTU.

Minaya to Brown, nice pass, nice take to the hoop.

They miss but we don't box out, easy put back.

Turnover, LU. Transition basket, TTU. :roll:

54-46, TTU.

Foul on TTU off the ball.

Give Jesse a rest. He looks tired and out of control.

We don't have anyone else.

Chene isn't a reliable ball handler. Tired Jesse is more reliable than Chene.

Pressing out of the timeout.

The beat the press, and the big gets an and-1.

The press has worked once or twice against one of the non DI's, and that's it. I don't like it. Let's hope it gets better or is scrapped by conference season.

64-52 TTU lead.

Why in the world is Layer not playing anyone off the bench? Everyone is exhausted and JC Sanders looks like he could run a marathon.

Missed 3, TTU offensive board, but then a TTU travel.

Antwan blocked down low.

They beat the zone and we get posterized.

TTU foul on the other end. Chene to the line.

Makes the first.
Makes the second. Nice FT shooting touch from Chene, he needs to drive more.

Chene has done a good job the last couple of posessions. Set Antwan up for a layup he missed and drew the foul and mage both FT.

I criticize Chene, he plays well. I compliment his FT shooting, he misses one.

We get it back, Evan going to the line.

Misses the first. Pathetic FT shooting today.
Makes the second.

68-56 TTU.

TTU turnover, bucket in transition for Chene. 68-58 TTU.

Their big is destroying us, and not with his size, but with his ability to find the open parts of our zone very, very easily. Easy hoop for him.

3:43 left, 70-58. TTU ball after the timeout.
