2-3 defense lures it's ugly head again

[Guitardeth]

Freaking sad.

 

[OUHoops]

Our guys looking like they're running in quicksand out there compared to UTEP.

 

[SoonerNima]

5-8 from 3 point land for utep

 

[seniorsooner]

We are really terrible on the defensive end.

 

[ouboomer]

at what point is it bad coaching on Capel's part if these guys cannot/will not play defense?

 

[SoonerfanTU]

We aren't defending them at all. Not even getting a hand up.

Thankfully Willie is hot early, or this wouldn't be as close as it is.

Come on defense!

 

[cfin5256]

UTEP is good. They look quite a bit more athletic than we are.

 

[SoonerNima]

do we have an offensive set that we actually run?

 

[stormspencer]

We are really terrible on the defensive end.

We are definitely hit or miss on defense...and right now, we are whiffing.

 

[coolm]

doesn't matter what defense you're in....if you're not moving your feet any quicker than that you're gonna get lit up. The reaction to the pass at the top of the 2-3 didn't happen until it was already in its' targets hands and going up for the shot.

S....L....O....W

 

[OUHoops]

do we have an offensive set that we actually run?

Other than Willie on the pick and roll, it doesn't appear so.

 

[sooners78]

mr negative here, but our talent is much better than we're playing, dont know if its coaching or players dont give a crap

 

[StroudSooner]

No sense guarding the perimeter; they might not make it anyway.....

 

[soonerprices]

I'm picking UTEP in the first round of the tourney

 

[OUHoops]

30-22 UTEP with 7:52 to go.
