Roller Derby

While I think BF's crew choked down the stretch with a missed 1-1 and three bad offensive possesions down the stretch, most of the loss can be laid at the feet of the officials.

I doubt anyone on the ISU squad would start for UT, and yet they led virtually the entire game. They simply outplayed UT on both ends of the court, but couldn't finish.

Had the game been called the same as a men's game, and without the constant hand-checks on the guards and roller derby in the lane, ISU wins going away.

Sad.

On a side note, if there is any athletic department in the nation that has the coin to pony up pink road unis for a fundraiser game, it's Texas. T-shirts don't cut it, horns. Weak.
