That looked like a charge by Sam Houston.

There have been a bunch of mini runs to open the 2nd half. We are now down five with Flagg shooting three free throws.

We are getting some bad calls, but we are losing because of us not either Sam or the refs.

We need to start games better. The past three starts have set us back.

We can't seem to cut the lead below three right now.

With Sam Houston still shooting 50% and 50% from three point territory t is difficult to cut the lead.

This game isn't over yet but we need to continue to disrupt Sam.

Wow we finally tied the game. I like our chances down the line since they are a very poor free throw shooting team and only 54.5% tonight from the line.

ACU has put together a very good 2nd half so far. We are shooting well and playing good defense. 60-58 ACU

I spoke too soon, we missed five shots in a row tied at 60-60.

Couldn't it hold off 65-63 final Sam Houston.

That one was painful. So very close. Our best defender slips down on Sam’s winning shot. That shot barely goes down with a favorable bounce. Just a very painful loss. Have to regroup quickly— got NMSU and GCU on the road coming up.

Very disappointing week, especially knowing we go on the road to play the two top teams in the conference next week.
Another game where a lack of inside scoring presence hurts us. We tried to get Steele going early and when he didn’t hit any shots, he hardly played the rest of the game. Also couldn’t get many steals tonight which limited fast break points. On top of that when you have four players on the court at 6’3 or shorter it’s hard to expect to be able to drive to the basket or to be able to get rebounds.
Going into conference play I would have been happy with a 5-3 start. Winning 3 out of the next 4 will be a challenge.
