Over-confident?

I've played on teams & played against teams that have a hard time getting jacked up to play against a team they just drilled by 30 points.

Your 3 don't fall because we actually get a hand in a shooters face.
The run & gun style is sloppy & the turnovers don't stop.
Tommy will have to really stress the over-confidence issue with his kids next time around because I can guarantee you they think they will just show up & win.

See U of H vs Rice last year.

Houston isnt that good....the minute the 3s stop falling they are in trouble. He doesnt have Mays/Blanks/Wright like he did at UT back in the SWC days.

I would say that is a function of their style of play and not a reflection of the talent they put out on the court night in and out. They have a VERY good team in my opinion, but team concept of run-gun and jack up threes will certainly lend itsself to making a team streaky.
