I'm not a basketball guy so maybe I'm wrong.
But I wanted Radford to drive for layups every possesion from beginning of OT. Thought we had a chance to foul out the rest of the uh starters/scorers sooner. IMO that was our advantage at that point. Then could have had a minute or two playing against uh walk ons.

Anyway, congrats to the team for a great effort! They didn't quit. Represented us well. Gig'em!

Maybe a moral victory, but the other #1 vs #8/9 scores were:

106-67
85-69
75-58

If anything, it's a good lesson that you can't have those mid-year lulls that get you stuck in the #8/#9 slot.




Yep. 67 teams are gonna lose. We deserved to be there on the second weekend, though.


Deserved? Nah.

This team does the hard things so well but the easy things don't come so easy.

Oddball and entertaining/hard to watch team but they gave it their all.

67 teams will lose. I've got a lot of praise, and I know that A&M is the better team. Yeah, the FT stink, but the thought of having Solo and Manny back means we can have a good team. Gonna really miss Garcia, Boots, and Henry.


All the beef is gone. Wade might be gone.
Unless there's serious gains via portal, we'll be in a bind

Eh.

Nobody can explain what a foul is that fit what I just watched.

I hate the loss. I really thought sending it to OT would be an Aggie victory.

But proud of the Aggie fight tonight.

Hope Garcia comes back. As much as I love Coleman the young man, I would not miss the player he has become this year.

Where is Wade gonna go? He's Hollis Price (look him up).
94chem,
That, sir, was the greatest post in the history of TexAgs. I salute you. -- Dough

Wade's only a junior, and he's not getting drafted, so you think he's gonna transfer? Him and Buzz are way too tight for that.

What? Levesque, Eli and Radford. That's it for people leaving.

Same. Not angry. Mostly just feel sad for the players. This team was special and it's a shame we had to face a #1 seed the second week. If we had gotten past Houston, I think we make it to the FF.

Correct. They weren't honored for senior night.

Wade, Manny, Solo, Carter, Garcia, Coleman, and maybe even Hefner all returning assuming none transfer. This senior class is the last ones with COVID year.

I don't think he'd leave Buzz either, but wasn't sure of draft potential.
If it's unlikely, that'll be great.

And yeah, Radford is a massive loss but I like our chances to be better next season.

IMO the winning play was that first possession in OT where they missed the shot and their guy made a miraculous diving play to keep it in bounds and they hit the 3 to put us on heels from go in OT. Really believe that play saved the Coogs season

That was clearly our strategy from the start but we got to OT and our coaches lost their killer instinct so here we are.

Plenty of time to write thank you notes that don't matter the next six months though.

That would have been nice to drive inside and try to get fouls. Would have slowed the game down, fouled out some cougars, and have their bench play vs our best players. Again, Ags would have to make their free throws. I can never understand how your team best shooters can miss free throws constantly. They should be automatic.

Yeah I had the same thought. Really really unlucky bounce for us.

The offensive foul on Manny earlier was massive too.

If we had made one more free throw, we would have won 87-86 in regulation. It was heartbreaking to watch us lose to Houston 100-95 in overtime, but I am proud of this team for fighting from start to finish. After trailing 81-69 with 2:03 left, we ended regulation on a 17-5 run to tie the game at 86 and force overtime.

Agree.After having to come back once, starting from behind and not catching up immediately, and then it was desperation.

Yup - still don't know how that whole sequenced worked out for them. Oh well.

Yep, they got the 3 and we played uphill the entire OT. That play gave them back momentum

I think the mood changed and caused the team to just make poor decisions like that first possession was within 20 seconds left
