Texas -2?

Why is Texas favored on the road. They cannot even win at home. I would def. fade these guys, they cannot even shoot freethrows. All you have to do is foul the guys with 5 minutes to guy, if your down, and they will give the game to you.

I was surprised by the line, I though Texas would be a 4 to 4.5 point favorite. Totally disagree that they should be a dog in this game. They lose 1 game at home and that means they can no longer win on the road?

texas was the most overrated team in the country and they came back down to earth finally.

they will be a great upset pick in the tourney..free throw shooting is key and they cannot beat a zone. they have one half decent 3 point shooter and fatty down low doesnt get it done consistently.

mind you they do have a good shot against okie st tho tonight. if okie st hits a decent 3 ball tonight tho, okie rolls easy.

Baylor is a good team, but I think the size of Texas will be too much for Okie state to handle.

Texas is no where near a #1 in the nation but look at who the played in the last week in a half. I think they re group tonight and get it done.

I don't believe Texas is the best in the country. You cant make free throws you lose. As far as competition, I don't think they have beat any great compeition other than Pitt, MSU, and A&M. Everyone has an opinion, mine is that the are not as great as some say. No way are they a championship team.
