MBB - UNT at Rice
Looks like Evee is starting, but heard something about Mullins not being available. Foot injury for Mullins.

11 all at 1st TO. Good D by Sheffield to take the charge. Owls’ ball coming out of TO.

Mullins is out (probably for today and Sunday) and Havsa is definitely out today and Sunday.

Two straight 3s for Lieppert. Big for him and the team. Having another shooter would be huge.

Good start 8-0 forces UNT to call a timeout.

Struggling with the press a bit. This is where we miss Mullins and Havsa.

Defense is forcing some UNT turnovers. Good to see it not just the other way.

28-25 Rice with 6:25 left. When we actually get shots off, we're good. But still a few too many turnovers. Tough last possession - awesome touch pass from Fiedler to a wide open Lieppert who airballs a 3 which leads to a layup for UNT. Possible 31-23 becomes 28-25 in the span of 3-5 seconds.

Shooting really well but the turnovers are keeping UNT close. Offense is fun to watch this season.

Turnovers are really starting to hurt us.

31-29 Rice with 4:01 left. Turnovers suck but good lord some of these turnovers are just down right lazy. Guys not catching the ball, passes thrown well behind teammates.
Very good first half from Moore. A few really good passes.

Very scrappy end to the half. Think we're fortunate to go to the break with a 1 pt lead. Lot of careless turnovers and UNT got a whole bunch of wide open 3s that they just missed. We're going to need to be much sharper in the second half.

Shot 58% in the half and only up 1. Don’t think there is a team in the conference we can’t beat when healthy.

Olivari 1-6 in 15 minutes...need him to heat up. Second chance points 12-4 UNT are hurting more than points of TOs 12-10.

Would like to see more of Fiedler on the block. I know he thrives passing outside of the paint, but we're struggling a bit on offense.
4 TOs for Rice to start the second half. Awful.

Not sure you could've scripted a worse start to the half. Awful turnovers. Abercrombie missing two FTs. Evee and Fiedler missing layups. Discipline on defense looks like it's gone out the window. 47-42 UNT with 2 FTs coming.
