Anybody tailgating for this game ?

[Matt from A700]

Excited for this one. This will be my son's first game (he'll be 5 months old next weekend).

[Cooke County Kid]

I’ll be there with two other family members, GMG!

Time to get jacked up on Mountain Dew

[Green Otaku]

UTEP is always a tough opponent. Get the lead early and don't let off the gas. GMG!

[South Texas Green]

I'm taking the over. Think it's a little low. GMG! 

[Venson]

The women get the win against UTEP. I guess Jazion Jackson should have stayed home. Haha. Okay. I am a little salty that she would transfer to UTEP. That's not an upgrade. I know it's her choice, but I still like to rub it in.

Just like that, the ladies are 1.5 games out of third place.

Here we go!

Scott's activity keeping us tied early.

[Andrew]

Watching this game anyone would be surprised we are second place in our conference. Coming out flat. No offense.

UTEP 10 -------- NT 9

 

11:43 to go

 

Perry with a big three to break our scoring woes.

NT 16 -------- UTEP 11

Getting a lot of steals.  Nice to see some points from Stone.

Since Ousmane can't learn to stay out of early foul trouble I'm glad to see more of Sissoko.  He needs more game action.  Transfer from Dayton....we need to see what he can do.

NT 20 -------- UTEP 15

 

3:24 to go

 

 

Our defense was controlling the game (Miners were over seven minutes without scoring), but unfortunately we were unable to get much of an advantage out of it.

So many lay ups missed.

NT 23 -------- UTEP 19

 

Halftime

 

 

Pretty rough for both teams to end the half.  A lot of mistakes.  At least we're ahead.

[GMG_Dallas]

Shaking with rage at these last few minutes. Not actually, but wtf. Missed free throws, missed bunnies, and a travel. Neat.

[Glory to the Green]

Defense has been stout. Our ball movement was good to see. Wish we were a bit more consistent with it.  We’re the better team, but we need to come out and show it in the 2nd half.

NT 31 -------- UTEP 27

 

15:35 to go

 

 

Both squads appear to be figuring out the other team's defenses slightly better this half.  Still a slugfest though.

[UNTLifer]

Got to shoot that Martinez. 

[NTXDJ]

Stone, you bonehead!  LAY IT UP!

[CMJ]

NT 34 -------- UTEP 30

 

12:13 to go

 

 

Thankfully the Miners are struggling from behind the arc.  We've missed at least five layups today.   Sissoko with some nice minutes for us.
