This is a Texas Longhorns Live Blog for the Jimmy V Classic where the Texas Longhorns face off against the Georgetown Hoyas. Make sure to participate while we react to a game that can change the season.
Final Thoughts:
Texas needs to find an identity. Scoring the fewest points since 2006 is unacceptable. This shouldn’t happen at Texas.
Texas loses to Georgetown 64-41.
I hope Texas can break 40. But who knows.
28% FG PCT. 12 field goals, 20 turnovers.
Ridley with authority!!!
8 minutes without a field goal.
Nothing is going right. I understand this team is young, but this is unacceptable
30 minutes played. 27 points. #unreal.
You can’t keep missing free throws.
2nd media timeout. Hoyas lead 44-26
Well the momentum is gone 44-26 Hoyas
The Bank is open.
What?? A foul on Papi?
Ridley makes a free throw!!!
Good job on the foul. Hoyas miss both shots. Love the aggressive play of the Horns
First one is no good. Second one is good. 1-4 at the line this half. Need to get free points.
Holmes is at the line
BIG 3 by McClellan. 32-24 Georgetown. Then a 3 by Georgetown. Holmes is foul. First TV timeout. 35-24 Hoyas but Texas has momentum.
Great job by Ridley drawing the foul. First free throw is no good. Second one is no good as well
Travel on Georgetown. Momentum is on Texas’s side
Great drive for Felix
Don’t leave your feet Felix
Great movement on that first possession
Halftime: Georgetown leads 30-17.
The last 3 minutes seemed to work very well for the Longhorns. They have to set the tone. They get the ball first. Get easy baskets and take care of the ball. This game isn’t over.
Offensive foul by Georgetown. If they can get it down to single digits by halftime, it might get interesting,
Awesome. 2 baskets in a row. Get a stop, and they do.
Wow when you’re hot, you’re hot. 28-11 Hoyas
Thank God Jay Bilas is setting the record straight.
And another 3 for Georgetown 26-9 Hoyas
11th turnover.
Okay, if we aren’t a good offensive team, we need to be solid defensively. 10 turnovers
1. Myck Kabongo. Stay strong buddy. We are going to need him.
2. Georgetown is just more polished right now. Everything about Texas seems raw. You see the skills, it just doesn’t get put together.
Nothing is falling for Texas right now. They aren’t having any luck.
Better performance this time out but still not enough to win the game.
Well McClellan needs to take more shots like every time. The only way Texas will win this year.
Another turnover. This is going to be a long year.
First TV Timeout. Georgetown up 11-3. 6 turnovers, 1 field goal is unacceptable.
McClellan for 3 and gets it.
6 turnovers with 0 points. Yikes
4 turnovers, 0-5 on field goals
Rebounding effort is great but they need to get baskets. 3-0 Georgetown.
Another turnover by Javon Felix, then a turnover by Georgetown.
A turnover on the first possession. Awesome
Texas wins the tip
