Full house here and the Horned Frogs need a win as they host number 15, Baylor.
He is Baylor's leading scorer and coming off a game-high 23 points in a very tough loss in overtime at home.
To the now number one team in the country, the Houston Cougars.
In the 11 NCAA tournaments, 5-3-16, three elite eights, a national championship.
He has built his team back from the cellar.
Good pass.
Nice lob.
Going off the disappointment of that loss.
And the missed free throw at home against Houston.
Bridges, probably their best shooter, and he knocks that down.
Here's the prize freshman.
Walter gives off.
Now Dennis, shot clock under ten.
Walter has it blocked.
Wow.
CTC trying to catch the ball in the middle of that zone.
They look opposite.
There's a lot of work going on from the weak side.
Wow.
Good rebound.
How about the 6-2 Jameel Nelson?
Purple and the white in full effect here.
The Frogs of the Bears, John Shobby, Jay Williams, and Chris Button,
and Jalen Bridges knocking down his third-and-three of the game.
Got to stay attached to Bridges' hip 24-7, forcing him to put the ball on the ground.
That one knocked away from Joshua Chonuoh.
None will try.
And that shot short.
Dennis, little floater, got it.
That's a shot that he's able to hit.
Got away with a little offensive foul there with a hook,
but still finding a way to get to the rim
and create a shot for himself or a teammate.
Close gets inside.
TCU leading it by a couple.
Walter, catch and shoot.
Got it.
Inside.
And Fork able to put it home, and he's off to a good start with six points.
Baseline floater wouldn't go for Tennyson.
Rebound Miller.
Shot blocked.
Meesey got a piece of that.
But I think you see Scott Drew the last two games try to play more zone
because he has multiple guys playing 34, 35, 36 minutes for a night.
Ray J. Dennis lifted up.
Near the first half in Fort Worth, Schallmeyer Arena.
John Chompy, Jay Williams, Chris Budden.
That one knocked away from Bridges.
No call there.
And it's Nelson.
Ball behind the back.
Give off Miller at the basket.
He won.
Shot clock winding down.
Walter here at the basket.
Had it blocked.
That's the shot clock violation.
Indeed it is.
A really good defensive possession.
Going to get this moving.
None at the basket.
Had it rejected.
Houston is the only team with a winning road record in the league.
Rolls, knocks it down.
Nelson probing, looking for something.
And that is Miller.
First three of the night for the Hornets.
You actually screen the top of the zone to create those mismatches.
Inside.
And Meesey throws it down.
Meesey.
Getting him going offensively is going to be critical.
Nelson.
Tough shot.
And he knocks it down.
Jameer Nelson, Jr.
Nelson picks up the dribble, gives off.
Nelson has it back.
Good give off.
And Corey puts it in.
With 12 early points in the first half, Meesey collects, kicks out.
Walter puts it on the floor and then throws it down with two hands.
That's great body control right there.
You're going to see Jacoby Walter just utilizing the ball fake,
getting the guy up in the air.
And this is going to go to all his playing points.
Dennis puts it on the deck.
Blocked winding down.
And are they going to score it?
Yes, they are.
Wow.
Dennis had it blocked by Nunn.
Gets it back.
High arcing shot.
Short.
Bridges pulls down the rebound.
Ray J. Dennis.
Dennis to the corner.
And that one knocked down.
But Jacoby Walter hits the three.
He's got 13.
The Bears have knocked down seven three-pointers in this one.
Nunn for Dennis.
And for James Nunn.
Say, Baylor doesn't have a lot of guys that can create plays off the dribble.
And as you see, Ray J. Dennis actually creating a play off the dribble.
But still.
Good look inside.
And the shot was blocked.
One shot by Jacoby Walter.
Shot 28% from the floor.
Coutinho coaches.
He coaches hard.
It's not for everybody.
But he gets his team to respond.
It can be both, can it?
Yeah.
Can he throw them under the bus and they respond?
Well, I learned that as soon as a coach stops yelling at you,
that's when you have a problem.
Good hands.
Bridges comes away with it.
Feed inside.
Macy to stop.
Now guess what's really going on with that long time.
Dennis pulls down the miss from Tennyson.
Lob up ahead.
Bridges puts it in.
The lead is 17.
Anderson, 0 for 3.
Got it.
Nunn puts it on the floor, goes to the basket.
Macy puts it in after the miss.
I feel like a large part of the story of the second half has been Ray J.
Dennis kind of controlling this game.
Just making good decisions as Jacoby Coles knocks it down.
But Dennis had the ball in his hands a ton.
I would say at this point, like,
we've sort of proven it's hard to have nice things.
So, let's maybe shut it down for a little bit.
Want to shut it down?
Nelson knocks it down.
I like to do my finger wagging at the finger waggers.
Yeah.
So, like, next pass inside and Macy throws it down.
Dennis with a shot clock under 10.
Gets inside.
Has it knocked away?
Saturday will be on ABC.
Oh, there's a call to that.
We'll be doing game day leading right into that from Tennessee to Alabama.
And Walter into the front court.
And Baylor will leave with a big road win.
The Bears move into fourth place in the Big 12, 62-54.
And that will do it here from Fort Worth.
