UTEP - MTSU

[axingfools1]

Damn it JB. Take care of the ball!!!

 

[MineroFanatico]

I don’t like the feel of this one.

 

[Lil_Train]

We can't get drive by them, and they are outstanding off the dribble. Very athletic team.

 

[axingfools1]

JB is getting torched on both ends. No block out on that last put back 🤦‍♂️

 

[MineroFanatico]

We don’t box out for shit.

 

[MineroFanatico]

Get Agnew off the floor.

Or not.

 

[MinerManiac]

We don’t box out for shit.

Fili would be so proud

 

[STexMiner]

Get Agnew off the floor.

Get everyone off the floor.

 

[axingfools1]

What are we doing? Get up the court and attack the rim!!! Waiting way to long.

 

[MineroFanatico]

I don’t have volume. What just happened on the offensive end?

 

[STexMiner]

TV moving screen and a Bienemy desperation miss.

 

[MineroFanatico]

TV moving screen and a Bienemy desperation miss.

Thanks. The moving screen is what it was.

**** man, we can’t get out of our own way tonight.

Reading over the thread doesn't reflect what I've seen so far.

 

[jdubb66]

We look like we've played two overtime games back to back.

 

[MinerManiac]

Reading over the thread doesn't reflect what I've seen so far.

I've seen poor defensive rebounding, a failure to take care of the ball, a lack of awareness of the shot clock, and poor shooting. I've seen some pretty good D by both teams, but our failure to box out frequently makes that good D worthless.

 

[nattybry]

Their defense is definitely effecting us and they're more fresh. We need to dig deep and pull out a low scoring slug fest. Oh and maybe Bienemy can throw the ball at the refs nuts and ask that they call a Fair Game!!!!! One sided calls in favor of Middle Tennessee in that 1st half!

 

[picks up]

Turnovers and rebounding (as always) have been frustrating. Got to stay out of foul trouble too

 

[MineroFanatico]

They’re winning the turnover battle and the rebounding battle. We gotta win one of those to win I think.

The only plus I can think of is we’re still in the game as sloppy as we’ve been. Gotta start knocking shots down. Especially our 3 ball.

 

[JCorona]

I remember us trailing by 10-15 points the entire first half and basically game during our first meeting. I'm cool with what's going on now.

Not only that, Boum is so lackadaisical getting across the 10 second line. Lack of urgency. We’ve had some very close calls.

 

[centex-miner]

MTSU Offensive rebounds and 2nd chance points keeping UTEP at bay. Plus untimely turnovers UTEP. No points for Boum

If they start to make threes like they did at home, they would be comfortably ahead. Not having Jefferson has also helped.

 

[STexMiner]

It would be nice if they called a walk every once in a while.

 

[axingfools1]

Game over. Our back court is choking

 

[MinerManiac]

If we're not careful the game will completely get away from us right here.

 

[STexMiner]

Already has.

 

[TxRdKiller]

We are AWFUL tonight. Can't do shit. They are playing incredibly tough on defense but damn, we just can't get anything going.

 

[Lil_Train]

Game over. Our back court is choking

Yep. Gotta start making some shots to try to hang in there. They have better athletes, with depth at nearly every spot.

 

[MineroFanatico]

ODU beat these guys.

 

[Lil_Train]

ODU beat these guys.

Yep. But they have bigs to pound it in and rebound. Really bad matchup for us.

 

[MineroFanatico]

Is there a run in us?

 

[JCorona]

Is there a run in us?

Yes

 

[Lil_Train]

Yes

Let's go!

 

[MinerManiac]

Is there a run in us?

I would day it's a resounding yes

 

[STexMiner]

Been a while since I've been this fired up for a game.

 

[MinerMambo]

Where's the feed?

Is there a run in us?

Yes

 

[MinerManiac]

As is so often the case, we'd be up big if we didn't allow so damn many offensive boards

 

[Lil_Train]

Attack the basket. Don't settle for jump shots.

 

[JCorona]

This game is going to need another 5 minutes

 

[develman]

That drive-by Kennedy should've been an and 1.
