Can someone explain to me the charge call on Blair at around the 8:00 minute mark? Hard for me to understand how the defender has position there?

No one on this team handles the ball well. OU has 9 turnovers so far. Mizzou's pressure is finally wearing our players down mentally. It could get ugly if they don't get a grip.

Two weeks in a row. Capel will get a T for being right.

 

[ouboomer]

i have been more dissapointed with OU's lack of awareness on transition defense, the Tigers have gotten too many easy looks the last 6 minutes.....

 

[Sam]

Capel might as well get a tech now, got nothing left to lose.

 

[Sam]

It seems like we're running in slow motion compared to Mizzou, especially on fast breaks.

 

[aaron7]

Wow. Blair is getting completely hounded every possession, but gets a little hand check.

It wasn't a charge. It was an offensive foul that occurred when Blair pushed off with his left arm. I replayed it and saw what he did. If you'll watch Carl when he's dribbling down the floor, he tends to stick out his off arm to keep the defender at bay. It's a bad habit that will earn him more calls if he doesn't stop. When a player has a chicken wing sticking out, it's an obvious and easy call for an official.

Cade Davis is WAY WAY off. 2 air balls today. Too a contested 3, passed up CJ Washington standing all alone under our basket.

37-31 Mizzou. Feels like it should be a lot worse.

Yep. He does it a lot.

We're playing tough. Only down 6 37-31

Missouri is still getting too many offensive rebounds.

Blair gets away with a push off.

Sooners miss a shot, but they get a travel!

Sooners can play for the last shot.

Sooners miss 2 looks, Missou misses a prayer 37-31 half

Missouri's getting the home-cooking we never seem to get. That "double-dribble" call was beyond absurd.

 

[SoonerDan74012]

Cade really needs to stop shooting.

 

[Sam]

I guess it could be worse.

 

[Sooner23]

Our play has been downright laughable at times, yet we're only down six. Weird.

 

[Tony]

We are only down six despite Fitz not playing a good portion of the half. Not that bad of shape.

 

[ouboomer]

Poor Cade he cannot even make a put back shot look good...

 

[Sooner23]

Reid Gettys now in studio? Kill me now.

 

[sheepdogs]

Cade really needs to stop shooting.

He found the rim on his last shot.

 

[LoveDemSooners]

Cade's 3's are getting ugly...
