This is the most stagnate looking OU offense defense I have ever seen. Not sure what to think. Can't wait for fb season.

I can't really call what we run an offense. Combine that with poor defense and that about sums it up.

 

[SKSooner]

They are playing with pride, they're giving effort we just have no bench and our defense like it has been for most of the year has been horrible. The effort and pride are there we are just not a good basketball team.

Getting your butt kicked every game on the road is probably a sign you have a team that doesn't play hard enough and isn't tough enough. We don't know how to compete. We don't play hard for 40 minutes. How many times has Colorado beat us down the floor in transition? What's the excuse for that? It doesn't take talent to hustle back on defense.

This team has a ton of problems, but I guarantee you one of the biggest, most glaring problems is the level of effort. It's not there. As much as I hate to say it, watch OSU. They play hard. Really hard. Their coach demands it, and the players fear the man. I wish our players feared Jeff Capel, but they don't. Capel needs to find a way to make them fear him and to make them want to play like a whole lot harder.

PLEEEEEEEEEZE, don't start that crap.

It's like watching an aau offense/defense. unbelieveable. To get dominated by a bottom feader is unforgiveable. This team is going to give up.

Tiny has a midget on him in the block and tried a no look pass.

 

[Romulus]

our def. reminds me of Tubbs teams.

wrong, Tubbs teams played defense

 

[NickZepp]

Maybe you can compare this D to the later Tubbs teams on defense but those teams could score some. This team isn't really that good at anything except free throw shooting and sometimes rebounding.

Everyone griping about effort and desire owes the guys a HUGE apology.
