Nov 21, 2012: Rice (2-0) @ Western Michigan (1-1)
Start of 1st half
We had 10 turn overs, and gave up 7 offensive rebounds. We only scored 4 pts in the paint.
Halftime, Down 35-39
Start of 2nd half
We're getting good looks even at close range, but our shots simply not fallin in. Our shooting has now dropped to 32% FG. I pulled out my starters hoping the bench would give us a lift, but still no luck.
9:55, Down 43-53
Our defense even disintegrated in the end. Margin of defeat would have been worse if not for the 13 missed FTs by WMI. Our worst loss in recent memory.
Final Score: Rice - 61, Western Michigan - 75
