Wouldn't be surprised if y'all took this one. We're beat up and haven't been playing too well. That said, I'm sure everyone will be back to full strength and Pop Isaacs will suddenly lift out of his shooting slump for one last Super Bowl.

This again? You bastard, you did this before the conference opener and it worked like a charm. Why can't you share?

Ye olde reverse jinx is undefeated.

Well, your effort is unnecessary. There's no hope of Texas making the tournament, our season is done, and Terry has been an unmitigated disaster. The 'Horns wouldn't have a chance even if the game were 4 on 5.

Y'all would win this with Mark Adams coaching, and even if said coach fucked his deceased brother's widow on the court before the game.

(Incidentally, Tech didn't delete the Mark Adams page from its website; they just killed the link. I'm serious. His page is still accessible and it still says he's the head coach.)

We couldn't win this game even if Keenan Evans returned to push off of Kerwin Roach again to shoot a potential game winner.

Warren Washington is hurt.

Chance McMillian is hurt.

Pop is in a slump.

Joe T. is streaky as hell, but leaning on the slump streak side.

The younguns backing up Warren Washington are just not Big 12 ready.  At all. KyeRon Lindsay is in Grant's doghouse big time.

This is not an attempt at a reverse jinx.  These are the facts.

Does sandbagging by opposing team fans on their opponent’s website have an effect? I see some trickeration going on here and RT will have none of that.

We just need to know if the Tech coach can watch game film and come up with a half ass strategy to keep Abmas off the 3 pt line or covered by a 6+ foot defender and lull the Texas D to sleep and make constant open back door cuts for dunks and layups.

It's just kind of a long running joke on the basketball board.

So we’re only going to lose by 6 instead of 10. Roger that.

I still think Tech loses this. Typical Tech rears its ugly head again.

I don't know.  Tech has a hard on for Texas like nothing else.  It's their Super Bowl if Tech could actually play in a super bowl and they let Mahomes QB and lead them to a threepeat all in one game.  That's what it seems like this means to Tech.  Which is great, just no need to deny it.

Yeah, and Tech tends to underperform (at least in football) when they see the burnt orange on the other end. The vitriol against UT has ramped up like crazy in basketball, especially since Beard's tenure at both places. I'm definitely trying a reverse jinx tactic as both teams are honestly pretty mediocre for the Big 12 at this point in the season and anything can happen.

Tech posters only show up in game threads when they're pretty confident they're gonna win. Cute fake concern though.

Texas players are soft and checked out will piss down their leg just like they did @ Houston and Kansas. Our only good road performances are in arenas that care even less than us about basketball (like TCU and OU).

I'm showing up because it's game day.  Pretty sure I showed up the last time.

All I did was state facts.  I left another fact out:  we got our asses run out of the gym in Orlando on Saturday by UCF.  We are injured and we are slumping.  We are undersized big time.

Any Tech fan who watched Saturday's game @ UCF knows that tonight doesn't bode well for us.  I don't see Warren Washington being miraculously cured in three days.

Am I the only one that thinks a bad loss is a stone cold lock here? If I were in Vegas, I'd put $500 down on Tech to cover without thinking twice.

I'm currently in Vegas.  And considering just that.

I think we cover and win.  ZERO legitimate or arguable reasons to think so considering how shitty we have played recently, but from time to time, we just win some games we shouldn't win.  Gut feeling.  Nothing else.  No, I'm not betting any of you sumbitches any money on my gut feeling.

Normally, I’d agree. But that line very weird to me. I was expecting to see 7 or 8.

All the tech bros showing up saying they are going to lose which means tech by 20.

You tech bros need to stop with that shit

The flow of Tech games has been choppy at best. It’s been virtually impossible to score at times. 
We’re not bullshitting. Tech hoops has been shitty as of late.  The effort is there, but certainly not the execution

The concern isn't fake. The team is actually having big problems due to injuries. My first reverse jinx was at least half serious.

Do the Tech fans shitting rat poison out of their mouths realize that Tech is still favored by 2 possessions tonight?

2 possessions isn’t shit in hoops.  But I get your point w the woe is me tech BS.
