Texas Tech

[ZapPoke]

I guess we’ll see tonight just what we really have. Pokes +21.5 and a 4.4% chance of winning according to ESPN analytics.

Go Pokes!

This is going to be a very tough game. True road game against a good opponent.

I’d be encouraged if we can keep it within 10-15 for a majority of the game. I have a feeling Toppin is going to tear us apart.

 

[Bryoming]

It will be miraculous if we keep it within 10. I don't see a scenario where this team can with this game.

We would need to shoot 60% from the field, 50% from three, and have less than 10 total turnovers to have a chance to win this game.

Chances of that happening are very slim. Texas Tech is a pretty good defensive team. Will be interesting to see how the players interact with Linder before and after the game.

Not seeing this game in the ESPN+ lineup today...

I just looked and see it in the ‘upcoming’ list.

I'll be at this game tonight. In the three years being here this and just one football game will have been what I end up going to before finally making the move back to Wyoming. I'm excited to see how the team fares!
The tech site is selling tickets for $12. What are tickets going for in Laramie these days?

You'll be able to find them dirt cheap for most of the season

Guess they don’t like calling reaches when they mug agbim

 

[LanderPoke]

They are mugging us

 

[LanderPoke]

Why don’t we play Ebube? The fact he is on the bench so much is really pissing me off

 

['PokeForLife]

All I know is we’d better start protecting the ball better or it’s gonna be a long season again.

 

[laxwyo]

Rough 2nd quarter of the game

 

[LanderPoke]

We are horrifically bad at rebounding. I was hoping that would be different this year. I was hopeful we would hold up in the front court, but no

 

[TheRealUW]

Pretty clear Texas Tech is better at every single position, but especially down low.

Impressive man to man defense from Texas Tech. They are longer, faster, and more athletic.

Seeing Linder just makes me mad

 

['PokeForLife]

Seeing Linder just makes me mad

I forgot about Linder til seeing him. He’s just standing there with his arms folded most of the time and yelling at people even when they’re up by 20. What a great dude

 

[LanderPoke]

Seeing Linder just makes me mad

He’s a quitter

 

[LanderPoke]

D. Allen is pretty worthless

 

[TheRealUW]

Texas tech is a very good basketball team. I suspect they finish in the top 25 and are a 5 seed or higher in the NCAA tournament.

I appreciate that our guys are still fighting. They haven't quit. They haven’t lost their composure. I don’t see defeated body language. That’s not easy to do when you are taking an ass whipping like they are.
