Up two!!!

Not a lot of discussion during this game from texags.

Probably the earliest that Kay Kay Green has been in a conference game.

We have taken 15 more shots than Georgia halfway through the 3rd quarter.

As well as Pitts shoots, she's not a great passer.

This is awful execution down the stretch in the 3rd. went from ahead by 1 to down by 9. Just horrible.

3rd quarter disaster as usual. Down by 11 after 3.

Georgia has taken 19 free throws to our 4 through 3 quarters.

They have 7 fouls to our 16

Time for GB to cash in his chips for this year.

This year may not have gone the way we hoped, but I will remember a few highlights.
