With Texas winning tonight I believe we are guaranteed the 14th seed in the SEC tourney #itmeansmore
 
Deja Vu for OU - Bubble teams winning crucial games in March while we flounder. So sad
Yep, plenty of teams are taking matters into their own hands, on the road no less. Texas and Arkansas were already ahead of us in the NET, and now they both have more Q-1 wins than we do.

Watching team after team make crucial shots, get crucial stops, and ultimately crucial wins while we can't for 4 years now sucks.
I hear ya, but Texas got a lot of help from Miss St too. They missed two crucial FT's at the end there, and UT hit theirs. They also missed some 3's late that could have got them the W. We have not only NOT hit crucial shots at the end...we've had our opponents hit ALL their late crucial shots. In the A&M, LSU, Miss, and Kentucky games, they hit every single one of those late game shots. Sometimes you need a little fortune, but none of those situations went our way. We also haven't gotten late game calls which could have gotten us wins in the Kentucky game and Miss game. In the Kentucky game, Fears could have drawn a foul on that late drive...we've all seen them call fouls in situations like that whether it was a foul or not, and Garrison could have easily gotten T'd up by getting in Fears face for taunting. Had that happened earlier in the game and not at the end, it most likely would have been a technical. Dayton absolutely got fouled on the base line at the end of the Miss game. He should have had 2 FT's and if he hit both of those (he was 7/7 in the game), that would have put us up 1 with 6 seconds left.

But in the end, we've still had plenty of opportunities and have no one to blame but ourselves. You simply can't lose that LSU game and the A&M game in Norman. If you win those, you'd most likely be in the tournament.
 
St. John’s seems to be quite overrated. Good team but they’ve benefitted greatly from UConn and the big East being down this year. They’ve played a handful of good teams all year and lost to most of them. Rant over.
