UTEP @ SHSU Prediction Thread

[JCorona]

Crazy that I’m in Houston this weekend and had no idea UTEP would be in town too. Zero motivation to make the effort to attend the game. And I used to take pride in being the road warrior. Expect another tough one out.

Yea, I’ve lost faith in our ability to win on the road - our last win away from the friendly confines of the 915 was Cal, two months ago.

The team still traveling away via prop plane?

Katz 76
Miners 64

 

[Hollywoodminer]

have to win this one

 

[NeptunianEmp]

UTEP will win. SHSU had the grudge match against NMSU bt even then 3/4 of th game was close. They will underestimate the miners.

 

[MinerDave]

I bet heavy on SHSU today. UTEP will probably disappoint me again and win

 

[MinerManiac]

Road games on ESPN+ are a mixed bag. On one hand we have even less of a chance to win. On the other hand, no Mando.

 

[MinerManiac]

The announcer said that if you get down double digits against the Miners we're hard to come back against. FIU will disagree. Plus, even in those rare occurrences when our offense is clicking, a drought is right around the corner.

 

[MinerManiac]

We are getting beat badly on our defensive glass early in this game

 

[EPUTEP]

haha How much are you going to win?

 

[MinerManiac]

Hebb might be finding his rhythm

 

[MinerManiac]

15-8 rebounding edge for SHSU. Ugh

 

[MinerDave]

So we pick today to play well?

 

[Miner_Tavo]

I'd wait for the full 40 minutes to decide if we played well or not.

 

[MinerManiac]

So we pick today to play well?

We will typically have stretches in every game where we play well. We started out shooting well, but now are having a hard time buying a bucket

 

[MinerManiac]

3 offensive boards by SHSU on that possession. Thankfully they couldn't hit anything

 

[MinerManiac]

I hope that we get an update soon on Frazier. We need his energy

 

[MinerManiac]

Hebb might be finding his rhythm

Maybe I spoke too soon. 😞

 

[Miner_Tavo]

Maybe I spoke too soon. 😞

Giving him a lot of space too, they're not really afraid of his shot.

 

[MinerDave]

Stop IT UTEP stop it. For the first half you gIve me hope that you may actually win a game. Stop it. Start sucking again. YOU CAN DO THIS. SUCK. Daddy needs a new pair shoes

That fall looked bad. Hope he didn't break his wrist.

Edit: Looks like Frazier is back on the bench.

 

[Miner_Tavo]

For as much as he has the ball in his hands and drives, Powell has to be one of the worst finishers we've ever had.

I think Terrell is our best finisher

 

[Miner_Tavo]

I think Terrell is our best finisher

Well it's definitely not Powell . He gets to the hole and blows so many layups and jacks up so many ill advised contested shots that he's more of an 'attempter' than 'finisher'

 

[MinerManiac]

What a pass by Solomon!

 

[MinerManiac]

He was finishing very efficiently against Wyoming, both on drives and post ups. Since then, he hasn't finished well at all.

 

[Lil_Train]

Camper has been awful on the road trip. I thought he was starting to come around last week, but the road is a different animal. I wouldn't be surprised if this team goes winless in the road, just like that awful Terry team a few years back.

 

[axingfools1]

That 7-0 run to end the half killed us, again.

 

[MinerManiac]

Terrell is at his best when driving, not when shooting 3s.

 

[MinerManiac]

If only Hamilton was more athletic. He's our only big with offensive skills

 

[axingfools1]

That 7-0 run to end the half killed us, again.

We got outscored 21-2 within an 8 minutes spanning halftime. Ridiculous

A little run here. 😀

 

[unihorn]

Comically bad offense by both teams in closing minutes.

 

[develman]

ESPN+ stopped working for me WTF!

 

[MinerManiac]

ESPN+ stopped working for me WTF!

Still working for me

 

[MinerManiac]

We've had so many chances to take the lead and blown all of them. That will likely haunt us.
