Will anyone else be at the game this afternoon? I'll probably head over around 1:30 or so. Between the UTSA football game and the UIW basketball game, we've had misfortune recently against San Antonio schools--let's hope that ends today.

My son and I plan to get seats behind the Rice bench (Sec 101, I believe), maybe with a few others. See you there. We were there for the UNT-UTSA game Friday, when the Runners blew a 15-point halftime lead. Rice has a good chance to win this.

Did you really mean 1:30? Tip off is at 3:00.

I meant leaving my house around 1:30 or so; I'd like to get there early enough to see warmups. See you there!

Another slow start by the Owls helped by a 4 pt play when Max fouled on a 3 pt basket as the shot clock expired.

Owls coming back with Connor and Quez in.

Marcus struggling from 3 so far.

3 layups missed so far and 1 made.

Tied the game thanks to 3 passes out of bounds but then the Owls turn the ball over twice themselves and Marcus misses going in 1 on 4 and we trail by 4 with 7:48 left in the half. Definitely a Jekyl and Hyde performance by the Owls thus far.

Not getting the rebounds we did the other night.

Another cold night for Egor and Marcus to this point.

UTSA getting in a bit of foul trouble here.

Pretty ugly ball thus far. Need to stay close until we can get some periods of good play. So far Connor has been the most solid.
