No good inside presence, and no real PG. Their best player (Abrams) just jacks a lot of 3's.


However, they will probably be better next year.

I certainly care if they win another game.


I'd prefer them not to.

If they are sleepwalking, hopefully Kansas can get a off to a good start. OU can sleepwalk through the first half, and we'll fall asleep in the second.

They almost lost to Colorado at home a few weeks ago. That's not the sign of a dominating team.

Texas has to come alive at some point. Just the amount of raw physical talent on that team dictates it.

What are teams doing to stop them? Are they just shadowing Abrams and packing everyone else in?

I knew Augustine was good last year, but was he the KEY to the team?

In my mind, they'll play up to their talent at some point and win one.

Without Abrams?

I'm kind of in this boat here with the OU game. I really don't anticipate winning. Especially with how flat KU has been on the road. If anything, I see (already annointed POY) Blake Griffin getting some Hansboroughesque calls and Aldrich having to sit with fouls.

If Aldrich has to sit, you can pretty much throw in the towel on the rest of the game, unless we are on FIRE from 3.

Abrams is a little overrated. He does play good defense for a little guy, but he takes some dumbass shots. Texas isn't going to go anywhere without a point guard. But I still have no idea why they are so bad. They have about 4-5 NBA players on that team.

In honesty, Augstine was REALLY good. But someone should be able to get the ball down the floor.

Abrams has always taken bad shots. He's beaten KU with bad shots. His bad shots in the past have always gone in.

You're forgetting Beasley.

Or is Saul still talking about Beasley?

All Abrams does is shoot 3's at a mediocre 40% clip. His defense (agaisnt bigger players) and playmaking skills are awful. They can find another guy better than him.

They have no inside presence, and their perimeter offense consists of jacking (and missing 3's). It's no surprise that they are this bad, to be honest.
