[KCRuf/Nek]

Dammit. Thought it started at seven

That's okay Bounce. They're hanging on without you.

 

[OUHoops]

36-22 with 2:37 to go.

I liked that we came out of that TO and worked the ball on O again. We don't need quick shots against this team.

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

I wish we'd shot like this against KU.

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

Osby turns it over and instead of giving up he makes a great play.

 

[steverocks35]

Pledger is EN FUEGO!

 

[garyeb2]

Pledge yelling "take that garyeb. Take THAT!"

Why take a shot at me. I have said on several occasions that some nights he was a very good slow footed catch and shoot guard.

 

[BigTime]

Good minutes by Fitz. Atta boy!

 

[steverocks35]

Was that last move "catch and shoot"?

 

[KCRuf/Nek]

Dumbazz Drew has no one but himself to be mad at concerning that 3rd foul.

 

[BruinSooner]

3rd foul on Jefferson. Well done, Lon.

 

[WTSooner]

Why take a shot at me. I have said on several occasions that some nights he was a very good slow footed catch and shoot guard.

Nice try.

Two or more of his jumpers have been off the bounce tonight. That ain't "catch and shoot".

 

[OUHoops]

OU up 38-26 at the half.

[BigTime]

Good first half! Loved the intensity.

 

[WTSooner]

Seemed to me the starters got more run than normal. I like that. Our best players are still the starting 5 and sometimes Fitz. Those guys need to play as much as possible most nights.

Wish I could see the game. I hate ESPN3/WatchESPN. It never shows up that the game is blacked out when I access the site from Chrome. Then I switch to Firefox and it says blacked out. There aren't any other links out there either to watch the game.

 

[Sooner23]

If they can get through the second half spurt when Cousins plays still in the lead, I like our chances.

 

[WTSooner]

Gotta tighten up on the glass in the second half. 8 offensive boards for Baylor is too many. Ruins a good defensive stand.

Overall, very good 1st half. Love the effort.

 

[garyeb2]

It's damn sure not taking a defender off the dribble. I happy he is earning his keep. And It is OK with me the Pledger fan club gets a decent half of ball to feel good about.

 

[slappy in OP]

That was one of the most complete halves I have seen us play this year. Keep up with consistent defensive effort, grab the boards, and keep shooting at a good clip and we have a good chance. Pledger has impressed me not only with his offensive output, but he also played some defense. That was great to see.

Avoid the Baylor run(s) that most likely will come in the second half.
