Built a small dedicated streaming PC so I can offload the streams from my main and gaming rig, so fresh config may need some tweaking but did some testing and looks at least okay. I'll be posting a link here.
 
They do indeed, thank God we survived that little run. Now time to settle, I want to see McCoy involved this afternoon.
 
XFactorRebel, thanks as always for coming through.

Great play drawn up by the Coach to end the half down just one.

McCoy will be well-rested for the second galf. Rebels will need a big contribution from him to win this critical game.

This is a must-win for the Rebels to have any chance at a top 5 finish.

Bad news. Rebels down 11. McCoy playing like he has 4 fouls, not 2.,

Nice comeback, but one point short. Sad...

Thanks so much!

Also, the announcer just said "UNLV in the bonus and they are one of best free throw shooting teams in the country". That's wild, free throws have plagued us for quite some time
 
Yes, The game is coming down to the wire with a 1 point lead with 2:20 left to play. Let's Go Rebels !!!

Ouch! We'll be playing four games in the MW Tourney

You can't fault their toughness. They played hard for 40 minutes. Too bad they wouldn't call the foul at the end. Mooring got butchered on the tip-in. I hate blaming the refs, but I'm blaming the refs. They were pretty awful throughout this game.

First time I've had an opportunity to watch one of your mirrors, and just wanted to say thanks! Quality is outstanding and it seems the consistency is definitely there too.

Really appreciate it!

I think what he meant to say was that UNLV draws the most fouls.

Rebs missed 11 FTs, hard to blame the refs. Generally accepted that late in games refs aren't going to call a game that would "determine the outcome" (although, by not calling fouls late, they are changing the book and ultimately the outcome), so that's no surprise. Bummer of an outcome, but still think if the team plays well, they determine whether or not they can win the tourney. Not expecting, but it's possible. Though that first round bye would have helped immensely

Rebs got the whistle today, overall. We had a five point play hinge on an overturned call and we were on the good side of ticky tacks.

Those 2 FT misses really hurt, bad.

We are our own worst enemy. Can’t go 3 for 5 in crunch time.

Then of all people, Clyburn FTW?

Another close game we coulda shoulda..

On to Reno.

On the flip side I did love how we ran the court when the opportunity arose

UNM doesn’t defend a little bit either. But they shoot it well.

They just gave up over 100 points in regulation to Wyoming. They won, just saying, they don’t stop people.

It was easy to run. I wish UNM FC pressured more. Easy points.

Rebels can win four games @ the Mack. It’ll be tough, for sure, but it’s not impossible. They have themselves to blame for being mentally unfit in the last two games, vs Fresno & @SDSU. But that can’t be said for today’s effort.

The Rebels battled to the final buzzer. Perhaps they received a great deal of calls that went their way throughout the game, but on the critical final play, the refs swallowed their whistles. We usually get lopsided stats in that department, because we play in the paint, while teams like UNM look for three-point opportunities. But the effort by the boys in black, was great to see. Despite the outcome.

It's true that Clyburn was a lousy option on the final shot. But if he's on the floor, he has to be considered an option. Maybe he should have been on the bench. Who would have been better? Was Nunu out there? We were only down one, so a three was unnecessary. Where were our bigs? Brandon was probably double- or triple-teamed. But what about Shakur? Ah well, thinking about what ifs, is just frustrating.

If we continue to play with purpose, who knows what might happen? I remain an optimist to the end...Sue Me....
