Gonna be a long wait till next year. The only chance this team has to win another conference game is to hope somebody like Pledger gets hot and goes for 30. I didn't get to see the game but I see the stat sheet. I've never seen a more offensively or defensively challenged team than this one. I was very excited and couldn't believe when we beat KSU those two times. But that will obviously be the exception not the norm.
It appears that OU tried to take Royce whats his face out of the game, and ISU guards went Larry Bird on us. Is it me or do other teams have unusually high shooting percentages in Lloyd Noble? The last home game I watched was Baylor and they had some guard(s) that had a career game from 3 pt land. I know our defense and guards are attrocious at closing out 3 pt shooters, but you would think we would get lucky and SOME team would have an off shooting night against us. When teams take Pledger out of the game, we have no prayer of anyone else hitting 3s. ISU looks like they had a smorgasbord of guards that just bombed us from the arc. When will the next day be that OU has more than one guard that can consistently hit a 3? That day cannot come soon enough.
Cam Clark seems like a great kid. He is a sick athlete but he just plain sucks offensively. Hands down. Every game Im following on my ESPN Iphone app when Im at the store with my wife and I look at the mid-game stats and he's 1-7, makes me cringe....
I hope next year we get a talent infusion(Hield, Hornbeak, Henry) that helps our scoring. Texas may not be the greatest team this year, but they have guys who are aggressive on the offensive end, can hit open shots, and just overall score the basketball, every year. With Grooms, Clark, Blair we have no prayer to have any offensive consistency. Its really unbelievable. Its like these guys have never shot a basketball before.
I grew up on Billy-Ball and Kelvin. This crap hurts my eyes. Shame on me for getting my hopes up...
