UCF vs @Texas Tech Tuesday, 2pm ESPN+ Men's Basketball

[Central Floridave]

I haven't seen a point spread yet. both teams at 9-2. First conf game.

ESPN predictor says Texas Tech 87.1 percent chance of winning.

Both teams have played Texas A&M. UCF won, TTU lost.

feels like they have had less games compared to other Programs over the Holidays

Texas Tech has a legit NBA prospect, JT Toppin (18.6 PTS, 11.0 REB, 1.9 BLK, 1.6 STL). He will be a first round pick.

Hasn’t played since November 29th due to injury. Will be interesting to see if he’s back.

 

[PositYourself]

They're gonna clean our clock.

 

[Shark19]

They're gonna clean our clock.

I didn't even know our clock was dirty

That is pretty nice of them to do really....

Brother in NBA I’m pretty sure.

Brother in NBA I’m pretty sure.

No, I don’t think so.

Obi Toppin is from NYC. His brother (Jacob) played CBB at Kentucky.

But I don’t think there’s any relation to JT.

 

[Central Floridave]

Texas Tech are 12.5 favorites. o/u: 145.5

That’s not a common name. Odd they aren’t related.

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Tied at 6. They don’t look unbeatable.

 

[lawknight]

Jocias getting rocked by their big man.

 

[lawknight]

Wow Hall is on fire!!!

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Hall with 17 so far. 7-7 shooting. Good start to Big 12.

 

[Central Floridave]

47-41 UCF at the half.

 

[connerito]

Defense for all intents and purposes is playing real well. Continuity on offense is nice especially since Sellers and Williams just came back. Good first half. Went 10 deep, personnel wise, in the first half. Good sign. Tx Tech is a tough place to play. They look comfortable.

 

[UCFsbarro]

Keep it going fellas! Please don’t LSU this one too.

 

[PositYourself]

Daniels is pissed about the Darius flagrant.

 

[Asphalt.Jungle]

They're gonna clean our clock.

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Tech 19 in NET and A&M is 20 or so. Should bring us up.

 

[connerito]

Daniels is pissed about the Darius flagrant.

Watch it on ESPN plus Good announcers. Daniel’s ???

 

[lawknight]

Complete implosion..

Are we getting nervous?

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Yes

 

[Str8bipp]

At what point does our big come back in?

 

[BlakNGoldAllDay]

Should be soon.

 

[lawknight]

The momentum is all Tech..

 

[UCFsbarro]

This game is reminding me why I don’t watch basketball besides UCF. If a player farts in the general direction of the opposing team, it’s a foul. Just as bad as watching soccer.

 

[Central Floridave]

collapse by ucf but still in the lead with 4 minutes to go. Tech flipped a switch or something.

 

[connerito]

Great great win. Johnny be good? Johnny be great today.

Big guy played well in an extremely hostile situation for 17-year-old

 

[next1984]

Had em all the way

 

[lawknight]

Way to hold on, on the road. Quad 1 win !!!

 

[Central Floridave]

87-83 UCF Final.

Darius Johnson won that game in the end!

Basketball games go in waves. At least we got through Texas Tech wave at the end. Great win.

 

[UCFsbarro]

Gotta fix that big spread collapse issue. Imagine if we had that W against LSU? Probably would have a number next to our name. Anywho, positive momentum going into the new year! Go Knights! 🍺🎇

Basketball games going waves. At least we got through Texas Tech wave at the end. Great win.

Yep...big win to start the conf season....but got to figure out how the big guys can contribute in the B12....had hopes up for Thiam but he played like a HS senior and Jocius is non-existent. Game ball to Hall for building the lead that we barely held onto....

 

[Bring Back Wackadoos]

Best win of the season. Texas Tech had a NET of 19, one spot ahead of A&M.

Late game execution was really rough, but a conference road win is a great thing, no matter how it happens.

 

[Asphalt.Jungle]

almost gave me flashbacks to the lsu game in west virginia.

Jocius is a body guy. Clogs up defenses but don’t have great expectations except that. Thiam played well in the second but fouls killed him Still looks awkward at times He’s going thru growing pains hopefully he keeps progressing. Guaranteed his toughest atmosphere. They won and grew great result. There are some talented ball handlers on this team. Johnson is a closer.

 

[PositYourself]

Great road win for UCF.

We own Texas!
