Two bad turnovers by Jai Lucas. Can’t afford to have those from your PG. #UT

Horns really struggling vs the Baylor zone. Just 10-28 from the floor. #Longhorns

Gary Johnson drawing a lot of contact on shots but no calls. #UT

Horns go to halftime with an awful last 10 minutes of bad ballhandling, shooting & defense. Trail Baylor 38-29. #UT

NFL Network just use Chris Johnson to prove Dexter McCluser size point. Johnson is 3 inches taller, 40 lbs heavier than McCluster. #NFL

Jordan Hamilton (2 mins, 0-3 FGs, 1 to) and Jai Lucas (2 mins, 3 tos) epitomized the #UT first half. This team is deep, but deep in what?

Horns with just a bit of momentum here 6 minutes into 2nd half. #UT has cut lead to 7.

Back to back buckets for Dex pulls the Longhorns within 2. Texas trails 52-50 with 8:40 left. #UT

Horns have trimmed a 14 point Baylor lead to 1, 54-53 with 7 to play. Avery Bradley has come alive w 9 2nd half points. #Longhorns

#UT has cut a 14-pt deficit to 54-53 w 7:10 left. Avery Bradley is playing some serious defense.

I’d still get Jordan Hamilton in the game again for a heat check. #ut #horns #hookem

Damion James 2nd chance on his 17th rebound gives the Horns their first lead since early. #UT up over baylor 57-56

Whoa. On replay Baylor’s Dunn sure looked like he did that on purpose. Looks Brown right in the eye and then elbows him direct in face. #ut

WTF was Balbay doing? No rush and ignored several open players on that inbounds play. #ut

With Dunn out for Baylor, that let’s Bradley & Balbay take turns working on Tweety Carter. #ut

If Bradley is the only one who will attempt an outside shot, give Jordan Hamilton a chance. Hamilton can guard Anthony Johnson. #ut #horns

Then coach him not to. RT @pat_daniel: @chipbrownob the problem with hamilton is he’s a black hole. he shoots everytime he gets the ball

That’s why J’Covan Brown has to be on the floor at least 20-25 mins per game. The guy’s a baller. #ut #horns

42.1 left. Baylor down by 1 and going to the FT line. Bradley missed 3 straight open 3s. Balbay just fouled out. #ut

#ut back up 1 with 32.9 left after Damion James hits 2 free throws.

Big free throws from Damion James. Here comes Texas’ defensive lineup, minus D.Balbay, who has fouled out. UT up 63-62 with 32 secs left.

Baylor desperate 3 and no one underneath it but Bears. They put back the miss so we’re going to overtime. #ut

Baylor’s Anthony Jones goes Lorenzo Charles to force OT at Erwin Center.

This is why you miss Jordan Hamilton right now. The guy wants the shot. Only J’Covan Brown right now wants the shot. #ut #horns

Big bucket by Dex right there.

Ekpe Udoh is ballin’ for Baylor. He has brought a swagger to the table for the Bears. #baylor #bu

Texas down 4 with 72 seconds left. Damion James going to the line. Baylor just lost Best post gut to fouls. #ut

2 ft’s by James then he and Mason force turnover. James’ breakaway slam makes it 2 pt deficit with 42.3 left. #ut

Texas found ways defensively to win games against Michigan State and Texas A&M. Can UT do it again?

Breakdown in full court press forces James to foul out. #ut

Anyone think Rick Barnes, the coach who refuses to talk about offense, can go Zen and get guys to make FTs? Didn’t think so. #ut #horns

Now Barnes puts Jordan Hamilton in. Wow. Ballgame. Baylor wins in OT, first win in Austin since 1998. #ut #horns #hookem

1.2 left. Bradley gets great look at a 3 to send the game into a 2nd OT but it bounces out. #UT falls to Baylor 80-77.
