    They do play confident and in control is how I see it but I agree it would be nice if they a little more edge at times. Roberts leads with aggression.

    Purdue lost to Indiana, so the way is paved for Houston to regain the top spot with a win at Temple. The Purdue center looks like Yao Ming's son. Seriously.

    And with the Memphis loss, whoever wins between us and Temple has a very nice path to the conference title

    We still have 2 against Memphis but realistically it looks like a 2 horse race with Temple

    Game day. #1 AAC at stake. Win we are up by 2 games. Lose we are tied and they have the tiebreaker. All the games are important but this is the biggest game of the year for us so far.

    At DFW flight leaves at 5:58. Wife scheduled flight times for Vegas trip without checking with me first. Going to watch what I can before flight boards. Watch the rest once on the plane.

    Keys to winning. 1) get off to good start 2 ) keep Roberts and others out of foul trouble 3) win the battle of the boards 4) shoot at least 70 % at the free throw line.

    Do all this and lock them down on defense and we should be able to put this in the win column. There is one ref in particular that hates us. Can't remember his name but I hope he s scheduled to be somewhere else today.

    Temple might be their kryptonite

    Big guards just give us problems.

    Better ball movement today at least. The offense looks better. Still need to finish. Make a run.

    Walker looking like the top 7 pick he is. It's really beautiful seeing him begin to spread his wings. And, the worst possible news for everybody else in the NCAA Tournament.

    Refs are terrible today. Calling a horrible game.

    Sampson Jr has a head of hair that his dad is envious of.

    When the light hits it right it looks like Lebron's spraypaint job, but better.

    Coogs have destroyed Temple's interior defense for the last 5 minutes.

    Look at the refs again. Doing too much.

    it’s not about you guys. Quit making this game about y’all

    Lol Coogs up 16. Walker misses his man and gives up a 2 with 3 minutes to play. Sampson calls timeout and gives Walker an earful.

    If UH ever shoots 50/40/70 again I don't see how they lose to anybody.

    It's those random ice cold games though....
