TO’s and a Blatant Missed Goal Tend

Cost us the game. You give us two more points we are tied with the last shot not down 1. We hold for the last shot and the last two UT FTs would have never happened.

Side not Sills makes the FT if the Goal Tend is called we are still up 1 amd UT has to foul.

That said Refs didn’t cost us the game TOs did but that blatant missed call didn’t help. I often wonder how 3 refs can miss that I heard the rim pop back when he let go.

Anyways on to the next. GO CATS

Spy balloon

From Newsweek:
"It sounds like they shot it down in really just 47 feet of water, which is great, and it probably gave it a bit of a cushion, meaning the payload is probably somewhat intact and what we can do is reverse engineer that and see exactly what their [China's] capabilities are," Walder said.

She continued: "This provides us with a lot of intelligence rather than providing China with the intelligence that they were trying to obtain. My best hypothesis is that this balloon was not taking pictures over the U.S. Rather, they were gathering measurement intelligence, which is signals from nukes, radar, sonar, those kinds of things. That's what it would be measuring, and I'm really hopeful that this will be an intelligence boon for us seeing what this payload has."

February gauntlet

In the big 12, every team has a gauntlet in February. I appreciate announcers (other than ours) saying there are no lower tier teams. The records at this point would support that. I thought if we were 16-6 at this point it would be great. How many of you would have said we would be 18-4?

February creates a whole different set of expectations or hopes. We play 4 games at home, each being a top 20 team. We play 3 on the road against 3 unranked teams that have won a “big” game at home. My hope is that we do win our home games and one of the road games. That’s 5-2 in February and an overall record of 23-6 heading into March. I believe this team can do it.

Nothing is easy but certainly possible.
