Diminished Rice leading 8 - 0 with 5:12 left in 1st

End of one, 14 - 6, Rice.

Threes are not falling, or lead would be larger.

Probably not worth its own thread as I'm watching on my phone as I watch Army-Navy, but I have seldom seen a worse offensive basketball team than ours.

Rice leads 25 - 9 with 4:30 left in 2nd period.

Rice up at the half 30 - 18. Owls not very focused. Finals compiunded by limited roster, perhaps.

We miss a lot of open shots. Not sure there’s a way to fix that.

Women open half with a 6-0 run. Looking much sharper.

Men's half honestly not as bad as possible. Ako went down with an ankle/leg/foot injury and didn't return, so it appears that it's Miles and Najja (maybe) against the #1 TO creating defense in CBB.

* Looks like Ako is back for the second half

Coach Langley must have awakened the Ladies at halftime. Rice up 40 - 22 at the 5:13 mark of the 3rd.

Pretty sure Connor is the only one on the team who has made a shot that wasn’t a dunk. We’ve missed multiple layups and every 3.

Where’s Lapray?

At the end of 3, Rice 48 - IC 32

Concussed.

Women lead by 16 at end of 3rd, but four are in foul trouble. Langley is running clock on each possession.

Got it. Thanks. Well SFA is in foul trouble and we can’t shoot. The ball should be in the paint on every possession this half.

47 - 38 Rice up but in big foul trouble with 7:09 left

Rice up 58 - 40, 3:26 left

60 - 43 Rice wins. Wasn't pretty, but ww'll take it.

The men can’t even shoot FTs. SFA hasn’t even played a good game.

Hard to win with 27 TOs and 19 missed free throws. SFA defeats Rice 81-62.

...and Connor held scoreless in the 2nd half.
