*** Offical OU vs Coppin State Game Thread***

Poor Bob Barry sounds as confused as Wade Phillips looks.

31-23 Sooners, 3:50. Really digging the ball rotation on offense.

Pretty amazing that he'd be spending his Friday night watching a webcast of OU against Coppin freaking State. Obsess much?

it is weird.

It is sad...but the dude has been league in the past. I choose to remember those times.

 

[Sam]

I love the energy and emotion Calvin plays with

Except for that last possession, I liked the first half. This team has some spirit that we didn't have last year.

I wasn't sure what to expect from this bunch, but I am impressed. I finally feel like I'm watching a TEAM play out there. Newell is quick!

 

[Mr.B!!!]

OMG. BBjr. is cracking me up.

The sound of the stream is terrible. You hear the band/game announcer almost as much as you hear Bob Barry/Mike Hauk.

Gotta love that BBSr still has his humor.

 

[Mr.B!!!]

Do they know the mike is on?

 

[StatGeek]

first half was solid; did a good job of valuing the basketball

 

[Mr.B!!!]

BBJ looking for some boobies!

 

[Cleavon Little]

I hope he doesn't, but I keep waiting for BB to say something offensive because he forgets we in internet land are listening on breaks. And yes the left channel house audio feed is freaking loud.

They looked better than I expected. I'm surprised that Blair hasn't played at all.

Barry/Hauk are on one side's (left or right) speaker PA is on the other. turn off one side to fix issue.

Newell is my fav so far..Clark looks like he is our Crocker type player this year.

Where is Blair?
:yoyo

I checked in when it was 7-5, Coppin St. Since then, I only saw CSU get one easy basket. They made some tough shots, or this game would already be a blowout. As for OU, the passing has been crisp and the rebounding better than I anticipated. The hustle has been tremendous.

Other than looking horrid from the charity stripe, I can't imagine any Sooner fan being disappointed overall with the first half. Let's keep this up in half number two and we'll start out 1-0.

the difference b/w last year and this team so far is like night and day.

these guys play 100x smarter. for example: CS traps on the wing out of the zone, Nick gets it out quick to the top of the key seeing the trap coming and Cade quickly swings it to the off-ball side for the wide-open 3.

recognition.

We also seem to have shooters with a better touch.

Maybe we're not that talented. Won't be easy to make that comparision against Coppin State, but we are certainly playing better basketball and they're much more fun to watch.

 

[NickZepp]

I suggest for those watching online to turn off the left speaker on your computer during the game. That's what I'll be doing the rest of the way. And right now since I don't really care to hear "Video Killed the Radio Star"

Same, on both accounts. Also interested if CJ gets any minutes or not, or if they're letting him heal up a little more.
