Tulane (3/12/14)

[foutsrouts]

Tulane starting off 0-5 from the free throw line, after Rice went 14-30 from the foul line yesterday. Say what you want about Benford, but his team is really defending the free throw well.

Yes, Benford's pre-game Juarez lunch strategy is really paying off.

Halftime

No complaints here.

[CMJ]

Can anyone describe to me Benford's suit?

Words can't do it justice.

[meangreener]

Surprised. Pleasantly. So far, at least.

[BillySee58]

Just like with most big 3s, if 2 or all 3 have good games they are tough to beat. If only 1 of them is having a good game, you have to like our chances.

I should've included if none of them are playing well. Because that's what's happening right now. All 3 of the big 3 are off for them, and our guys certainly deserve some credit for that. Last time we played them, 2 of their big 3 (Stark and Dabney) played well, and they beat us by 11. This game is all ours unless those guys make a 180.

Can we hold on to each other's butts?

Not safely. Haven't you been reading the eagles nest lately?

We played some great defense, but screwed up the rebounding...Tulane scored to go up three. I think we're sunk.

[Rudy]

So, we suck again?

[bleedgreen4ever]

So, we suck again?

We've sucked the entire season. Funny people thought this team under Benford was going to have a run during the tournament.

[UNTGuy5]

Is it ok for me to say I'm glad it's over?

[untbowler]

ack, ack, bring us way up only to be Benford'ed.

RV I am sure is happy with a QF showing in the BB Tournament

[UNT90]

I selfishly wish we had lost to Rice by 20 plus so RV may have felt the tiniest amount of pressure to can Benford.

Now RV will tell us what a great team Tulane is.

To recap, we scored 61 and 63 points against 2 of the worst teams on CUSA, and needed OT to score the 63.

Success!?!?!?
