  1. No. 12/17 Texas (22-8, 13-4 Big 12) at Kansas State (16-14, 5-12 Big 12) Saturday, March 4, 2023 – 4:00 p.m. Central Game 31 Manhattan, Kan. – Bramlage Coliseum TELEVISION: The game will be streamed on ESPN+. Brian Smoller, Missy Heidrick and Lina Sattarin on the call. RADIO: The game will be carried on 105.3 FM in Austin. Dave Garrett (pxp) and Kathy Harston (analyst) will call the action. ELITE COMPANY: Rori Harmon and Iowa guard Caitlin Clark are the only two players in NCAA DI women's basketball that are averaging at least 12 points per game, seven rebounds per game and five assists per game. BATTLING ADVERSITY: The Longhorns have faced adversity with multiple players suffering injuries this season. Texas was limited to seven players in their last game. This season the Longhorns have had 45 missed games by rotational players. Kansas State Players to Watch: Gregory paces the Kansas State's scoring effort, averaging 19.2 points and 5.5 rebounds per game. Sundell is the team's best passer, putting up 5.1 assists to go with 13.8 points per game. The Wildcats' leading rebounder is Jaelyn Glenn, who grabs 5.5 boards per game in addition to averaging 11.9 points. Gregory's 2.4 made three-pointers per contest makes her Kansas State's most prolific three-point shooter. She hits 32 percent of her shots from beyond the arc. Kansas State Schedule: @ Texas L87-41 vs Oklahoma State W86-72 vs West Virginia L77-70 @ Iowa State L67-56 vs Texas Tech L85-65 @ Baylor L69-48 vs TCU W64-48 @ Oklahoma State L82-74 @ Kansas L85-72 vs Iowa State W78-77 @ Texas Tech L78-68 vs Oklahoma L85-68 vs Baylor W87-68 @ TCU L75-62 vs Kansas W63-45 @ West Virginia L67-58 @ Oklahoma L90-86 OT vs Texas
  2. On the Vic show concerning Sonya Morris: Alex “ Do you hope to have her back at least by the NCAA tournament or you still not sure? Vic “Yeah I don’t think we are still sure when we’ll get her back, or if we’ll get her back. We will reevaluate her probably Monday, she won’t play this weekend, won’t travel, so we’ll see. We'll do an evaluation on Monday, kinda see what the future holds.”
  3. My confidence for the remainder of the season rides on Sonya being able to play. Without her we are severely offensively challenged. The blood clot reports explain the hospitalization and cause me to believe she may not return soon. I really hate it for her, these being her last games in college, she has been a warrior for us.
  4. Outscored them by 7 this half, slow fucking starts killing us.
  5. We work our asses off to get a poor look, they get easy bucket after easy bucket. Coaching matters.
  6. We are 4 for 7 from 3 They are 4 for 7 from 3
  7. Only out-rebounding us 8 to 1
  8. I love Vic but sometimes wonder if his holy-roller stuff and his sidelines rageaholism doesn't lose us some players. Celeste left to be "closer to family" but she's not that close at Duke. We had what - 6 players transfer last year? The girls appear to like him though...
  9. We know the Big12 isn't going to show any love for Texas, witness the preseason rankings. Next year should be fun because Rori's numbers should be even better with help at guard, but giving any Texas player accolades in our last season in the conference would be making the "blonde mafia" eat a turd taco. But nice to see ESPN recognizing Harmon's greatness. We know who the B12 player of the year is.
  10. True, but after watching Ashley play this year and watching KH's freshman campaign I'm not sure my disappointment in not having them around to play is warranted. Maybe one of them could have given Rori a break, but unless KH has greatly improved Vic should have had a better option coming in from the portal. They are both head-cases and court challenged.
  11. All this. A few bad calls yesterday but the officiating was not why we lost that game. As stated the main issue here is we started the year low on guards and then fragile self-absorbed Kyndall borked us. Already low on guards and outside scorers we lost Sonya. Yesterday Holle (40 min) went 1-7 (14.3%) for 5 points. I love Shay but that's terrible production from the 3 position. Shaylee 4-8 for 10 points. Rori (39 min) 5-18 (28%) for 12 points. Amina had 6 TO in 18 minutes. We really miss Sonya, I'm not wondering how we lost yesterday, I just amazed we won Saturday. If, like JS1 thinks, she's done for the year I will not be optimistic for the remainder of the season.
  12. True, but they played Tech at home in Waco, then drove an hour down to Austin. We played what was a huge game at OU at 6 pm.
  13. This is correct. And the OU game was huge, we are physically and emotionally spent.
  14. They only have 3 turnovers and are shooting 53%. Hard to keep up with that kind of efficiency, that has got to change.
  15. Playing big, only one three point threat on the floor for us.
  16. 2 fouls on Shaylee and extremely thin at guard. Not optimal.
  17. Anissa listed as a senior, Femme as a junior, Sonya and Shaylee as grad students, but my understanding was Shaylee had one year of eligibility left and Sonya none. Is that all correct? Not getting the senior day graphic at all.
