Texas looked bad last night

[SuperHoops]

Got drubbed by a mediocre USC squad. They have some talent but they really looked lost out there for most of the game, especially on offense. Kind of like watching OU early last season.

maybe they will completely collapse like we did last year and we can get a win from them in norman

Good, maybe we can pull of the upset in Norman. I would like to win one of our 3 remaining nationally televised games; Texas is the best shot (as opposed to Baylor or Kansas).

The backcourt will determine their success. You can almost just look at the box score after every one of their games and pinpoint why they won/lost. Last night their four guards (Joseph, Balbay, Brown, Lucas) combined for 5 assists.

Nebraska came back from 20 points down and beat that USC team.

Texas has issues. USC is not a horrible team but they did lose to Rider and TCU by 12. Texas' interior defense was so bad that they had to give Matt Hill extended minutes. Playing he and/or Balbay is tough because they provide zero offense. Brown, Lucas and Joseph are smallish guards and they struggle with phayical guards. Their offense last night was rough- too much of J'Covan or Hamilton waiving guys off; going one on one and chunking low percentage shots.

Love me some Jordan Hamilton.

that perimeter defensive guy for usc was really impressive. he must have nothing offensively, or he'd have at least something of a name.

USC was maybe the best defensive team in the nation last year, just had nothing on offense.

They only allowed more than 70 points twice all year, and one of those was in a 2OT game.

Care to retract the statement you made a few weeks ago claiming Texas was "back", abd?

This is a questionable loss to say the least.
