Lamar vs. UTA Predictions?


KFDM COOP

Recommended Posts

lol...coop, we are trying to enjoy this victory...

Although we should beat UTA. I wasn't impressed with them whemn they played SHSU on tv.

They do have one inside guy, not Griff, that will give our inside guys a rough time.

UTA guards are quick, but our guards are better. Lamar wins big.

Okay, UTA has a nice team, good players and coaching staff but the one guy who worries me is Larry Posey. He is about 6-5 and 275, good feet, good hands and one tough dude. They have a FR who is about 6-9, 210 and a good shot blocker. I think Lamar should win this Valentines Day game (wife gave me a big hint) at the Montagne Center by 8 or more. I agree with it being a high scoring game but a little higher that just the first to 80. I think this game could get into the 90's. As a fan who likes to watch offense (I know defense wins championships) it will be a very entertaining game. I hope the community and students show their support for this team by making the game Thursday.

It will be worth the price of admission!

Like a lot of SLC teams, they are a good defensive team but not so good offensively.Ā  But with this being a home game for LU, they won't slow our offense.Ā  They tend to turn the ball over a lot, and LU's real good at causing TOs, so I say LU wins 82-73.Ā  Let's hope Barrow is able to play some.

Ā  2 running teams favor the home team winning big. Lamar by 25, 103-78...

Very possible, they just beat Texas State 99-81, and Texas State is run-and-gun all the way with no defense.Ā  I think LU could score 100+ points in back-to-back games.

I didn't know UTA was a run and gun team with 3 big guys (like 6-5 275 Larry Posey). I mean i haven't seen them since they came to the Montagne in '06 so we'll just have to see if we can get a v-day win.

There will be a promotional for this game which should help attendance. Lamar is having a Buy One, Get One Free ticket sale on tickets for this Valentine's Day game.

If that isn't good enough for you KLVI is giving out free tickets to the game. You need to call KLVI Thursday morning. Then you'll pick them up prior to the game at the ticket office outside the Montagne Center upstairs facing the parking lot.

    • Bye Week beat Beaumont United by double digits so not all is bad šŸ˜
    • He made the comment as a business man he hated overtime. He never said or implied he wanted to do away with it. He has said overtime should not be taxed. That will benefit the refinery workers in our area big timeā€¦..as well as nurses. Not only would you not pay taxes and see the benefit immediately on your paycheck, my guess that at the end of the year, you would subtract all the overtime from your total wages, thus lowering your taxable imcome.
    • Well I thought it would be a better matchup for us more so than us versus yall and we got whooped šŸ¤·šŸ¾ā€ā™‚ļø we'll see, long time before Ball High meets Lufkin though.Ā 
    • Very critical win for Crosby last night. At no point has the current regime given me any reason to think Crosby should be able to pencil in wins but for the sake of discussion I will for FB Kempner who we play two weeks from now and also Porter who we play a couple of weeks after that. That means if Crosby can beat Kingwood Park next week weā€™ll most likely finish district play 5-2 and in at least 3rd place.Ā  Ā  That being, the team could be a lot better if we had a competent offensive coach. Crosbyā€™s offensive philosophy is to give it to Yarbrough and hope he breaks it which is why we lose to team with above average defensive talent. Crosbyā€™s TE Landen Hammer is 6ā€™2ā€ and about 210lbs with crazy ball skills, an absolute mismatch problem and got one target last night. Friendswood realized Crosby had some playmakers on the edges and lots of times gave the receivers a 10 yard cushion. The problem is that Willis doesnā€™t know that so not once did we just raise up, throw it out to the receiver and give them an opportunity to be an athlete and make a play. So now that weā€™ve averaged 8 completions per game through our first four contest because 50% of the time Willis chooses to swap out 50% of the offense we look like we ā€œdonā€™t have the receiving talent that we used to.ā€ Yarbrough probably had close to 300 rushing yards last night but I wouldnā€™t be surprised if he had 35 carries. I like our backup RB but there are several kids who could help Crosby more at that position and Willis chooses not to play them there and feed Yarbrough to the point he couldnā€™t even finish the game last night. He continues to display an inability to efficiently use his personnel which is why we get blow out by any team with at least equal talent. Maybe something changes but Willis being 6-19 his last two and a half years on the sideline and his inability to shake the Cedar Park model donā€™t give much hope, which is unfortunate for the kids.Ā 
    • Big girl is trying to make Oprah sound like Bam Morris, who was busted with 220# of weed in the trunk of his car. When the cops opened the truck and found the weed, Bam said,ā€Thatā€™s not mineā€. Give me a break.
