Big game against a top 10 team. As of now we are barely in tourney.
UCF vs Houston today at Noon ( Space Game)
- Thread starter BlakNGoldAllDay
- Start date
Counting down. Hope we can pull it out but it'll be tough. Houston always plays great defense and they have veteran leadership. Feels like J'wan Roberts has been there for 10 years.
The Knights have been a terrible defensive rebounding team, allowing more offensive rebounds than any other team in the conference. And that's one of the things Houston does best (keeps possessions alive, hits the offensive glass, second chance points).
I think this one is going to be ugly. Early noon start, coming off a west coast trip, going up against the best defensive team in the B12.

"What are you doing at noon?"
I'm at the trailhead now. Going mountain biking for a couple hours.
Go Knights!

Great game so far...refs letting them play, my type of game.
Interesting that the announcers said flight delays forced Houston to have a long night last night...i think were seeing it here.
Frost is at the game taking pictures with the fans.

I had dinner, this week, with a top 10 of all-time college coach who’s in the Hall of Fame. He was extremely impressed with the talent JD brought into Ucf.
Like I mentioned above, UCF has struggled in the first half to keep Houston off the glass. The Cougars shot a dismal 33% in the first half, you would think UCF should be up 15-20 points. But Houston has 11 offensive rebounds that have led to over ten second chance points.
Neither team turned the ball over too much in the first half, relatively clean there. Hall has really struggled against Houston's suffocating defense, but Thiam has given the Knights a huge lift. If you would have told me that DJ and Hall would combine to shoot 1 for 14 from the field in the first half, but UCF would be up eight - I would have thought you were bonkers.
Hall didn’t step up n help Thiam Great effort though. They didn’t play their best n should’ve still won but for FTs
Thiam came to play
Hall gotta take the charge or be more aggressive on offside help imo. Nice effort though
Was Hall shaving points or something? Man he had a terrible game, wasn’t like him at all. Missing free throws, turnovers, bad shooting. Get them corn rows out asap.
Thiam is going to be a force. I hope we can keep him and Mikey comes back next year. with a few transfers we could be really good next year.
If hall has any Mamba in him, he'd be shooting free throws all night.

those cornrows were done too tightly or something and he was playing in pain because keyshawn was ABSOLUTE garbage. it's like the universe had to find a way to cancel out the arizona state game.
