********OFFICIAL GAME THREAD********

[FlCATFan]

24 to 12 rebound disadvantage. Unbelievable!

 

[loublue22]

They are doing a lot of pushing and going over the back to get those rebounds.

no they aren't, they're getting higher

 

[hotelblue]

huge dang foul. frick.

 

[zannmann]

Willis is killing us tonight.

 

[Bluest Member]

Somebody needs to lockdown Caruso

GO BIG BLUE !!!! GO BIG BLUE !!!!

 

[EnglandWildcat]

All these posters and callers who keep asking if we're better without Alex….this game should tell you the answer is a resounding "NO"

 

[The_Answer1313]

remember earlier when we couldn't hit a 3?

lol

 

[JerseyCat84]

Wow, we actually have a lead. Vegas is on to something. LOL

 

[throatpoker]

Has Willis attempted a 3?

Two at least

 

[JC43]

Glad we are leading at the half

 

[kyjeff1]

LMAO, how are we winning?

 

[loublue22]

lol 15-1 offensive rebound disadvantage and they lead at the half

 

[zannmann]

Up 1 at the half. I will take that.

 

[Kycatspaws]

Willis for threee!!!

 

[Comebakatz3]

The fact that we are up one at the half after giving up 15 offensive rebounds is amazing

 

[JFCats22]

Solid half. If we can get some rebounds we win

 

[FlCATFan]

I'll certainly take a 1 point advantage at half without rebounding and little scoring by Willis.

 

[Brooklyncats]

Shot like golden state the first half and still losing

 

[ukfan041]

Ulis is outta this world! POY in the SEC!

 

[hotelblue]

15 to 1 offensive rebounds. 36-35. yeaaaaah k.

huge shot by willis.

 

[Bluest Member]

Well,I'm happy at this point considering the rebound situation ,Cal make some adjustments and Cats will pull out a nail biter,and I will dull my senses as the game progresses

 

[NCukcat62]

We are truly blessed to be up 1 at half time. We should be down by 10. Luckily we are hitting 3s.

 

[Bill - Shy Cat]

Two at least

His 3 put us in the lead at half.

 

[wildcatwelder]

I'm literally sitting here in awe that we're up one with the way we did NOT rebound, it's just surreal.

 

[HenryMuto]

A miracle to be in this game at all let alone have a 1 point lead at the half when you give up 15 offensive rebounds while only getting 1 yourself.

We have not had this kind of weakness defending the glass for years. Having the likes of KAT, WCS, Davis, ect over the past few years we have never had any trouble on the glass like this.

Frustrating but what can you do.

 

[oldsports_]

I see why A&M has lost 4-5 games. I like where we are at, we got this!

 

[Bkocats]

honestly, we aren't playing badly - a few defensive lapses
need to rebound better - shooting pretty well, but so are they
I'll take a 1 pt lead into the half

 

[CatPhight]

Freaking amazing to have a lead in this game...scorching from the perimeter but the absolute worst
exhibition of rebounding I can ever remember.

 

[liveblue92]

All these posters and callers who keep asking if we're better without Alex….this game should tell you the answer is a resounding "NO"

I hope Alex could make the difference, but we had him for the Kansas and UT games.

 

[W2R]

Get well soon Alex

 

[caneintally]

Thank you UT you won us the SEC basically by beating LSU as we now have a 2 games cushion and we ain't losing 3 more times . Nice! Now lets go win tonight !

 

[the nail at the foul line]

This game is why Michigan state and Purdue...me not want to see.

 

[Bkocats]

rebounding is horrid, for sure -

 

[FlCATFan]

No real surprise but Tyler working on a double with 11 points and 5 assist.

 

[dcspurlock]

Is over the back still a foul in college basketball? I know we could do a better job with positioning and blocking out but a lot of their offensive rebounds they were clearly coming over the back of a UK player but nothing is getting called. Seems like it's rarely called anymore.

 

[ukfan041]

I guess my feed is behind! Still 24 seconds left for me

 

[Bkocats]

Thank you UT you won us the SEC basically by beating LSU as we now have a 2 games cushion and we ain't losing 3 more times . Nice! Now lets go win tonight !

Tenn beat LSU????????

 

[Roe07]

If we could rebound we'd be up 15 right now

 

[sound defect]

Solid half. If we can get some rebounds we win

That's exactly what Cal said.

 

[ukfan041]

Crazy to lead when we were crushed on the boards!
