I suppose nobody has any interest in discussing PJ Tucker's lack of an attention span. What's the over/under on the number of watches he receives in the mail this week.
43 points? The football team averaged more than that.
Oh, I have plenty to say, but I haven't gotten around to saying it.
This is typical - all season we have beaten good teams (Nova, Mamphis, Kansas) and laid an egg against other teams. We have also lost to good teams (Duke). Looking at the margin of victory paints an even more difficult to understand picture. They are the sort of team that will be an absolute bracket buster in March Madness, as they are just as likely to lose their first game as they are to win it all.
I am never happy about a loss, but this loss may have been a final wake up call to them to start playing up to their ability.
I don't mean to take anything away from the A&M players, but this game was more about UT blowing it than A&M winning it. That, and Gillespie drew up the perfect game plan. Congratulations to him and his team for a job well done - they were the better team.
