The Frank Erwin Center rides again tonight. Without fans, I think. But maybe they’d take a…vaccinated fan? *fluttering eyelashes despite being alone in this room*
The Game
Texas vs. Iowa State, in Austin
The Time
7:00 PM Texas Time
The Television
Longhorn Network
The Opponent
Iowa State. Joe’s guys. *pretending I’m in a bar* Hey! Hey! Leave him be. He’s cool.
What Texas Needs to Do
Prove that they are the team the boosters want them to be. Then grab the boosters’ wallets and donate donate donate so we can extend Shaka Smart and get back to the thing we like, which is the NIT.
On the Court
If Joe is to be believed (and Joe doesn’t tend to lie to me, unless I ask him if he’s in town when I’m in his town), Iowa State does most of the work by “taking shitty shots and giving the ball away.” So it sounds like one of those nights where Texas just needs to play their game and they’ll be fine, which wasn’t really a thing last year.
Feels good.
Hook ‘em.
