East Carolina (1/17/24)

[Matt from A700]

Announcers pointed out ECU is held to their fewest amount of points in a first half this season. Welcome to the club!!

[NT817]

ECU came out swinging we took their best shot and we have settled into the fight. Defense travels and Coach Hodge and staff have shown they are capable of making the right halftime adjustments so far in conference play. Would like to see some more shots go in

[DeepGreen]

Where is Sissoko?

We gotta knock down some of these wide open looks we’re getting.

[Matt from A700]

What a hustle play by Rondel!! ECU has had several chances to take the lead and missed.

ECU 38 ------- NT 35

 

14:09 to go

 

 

Winning on the road is rarely easy.

[CMJ]

ECU 43 ------- NT 41

 

11:43 to go

 

 

Our offense is back, but we desperately need a several minute clamp down on them.

[Travis]

Dumb dumb fouls. 

[GMG_Dallas]

This is just one of those games where the bounces don't go your way.

[Big Z]

Nice!

ECU 49 ------- NT 49

 

7:54 to go

 

 

Edwards is playing great tonight.

Starting to get to the hoop more. Would love to pull ahead by the next media timeout. This team without Rubin and Buggs has not had to "finish" games much, playing most second halves up by 10+.

[Matt from A700]

Can't help but admire how quick and loud the students were with that "Ref you suck" chant.

[CaribbeanGreen]

What a time to miss two. On the verge of a disaster 

[Green Lantern]

We’re playing with fire now.

[Andrew]

Our guys are tired. We need a win because Charlotte will be rough. We don’t seem deep enough for this.

How can they be tired? Edwards is doing all the work out there. Need other guys to step up. 

[CMJ]

ECU 55 ------- NT 51

 

3:51 to go

 

 

Basically we need to prevent them from scoring for the remainder and hope our offense can get just enough.

[GMG_Dallas]

4/22 from 3 is a recipe for disaster.

[Matt from A700]

Gonna need more than just Edwards to step up if we want to pull this out.

Tough to do when they anytime they get to the rim, a ref blows the whistle.

[CMJ]

Getting the stops...just need the buckets.

I think the hardest thing about being a UNT fan is that the team could win 6 straight and it would be relatively meaningless in the grand scheme of the NCAA. However, one loss and the team is set back drastically

[Matt from A700]

Running out of possessions... this play out of the TO needs to result in points!!
