Wow. Good close to the half. We don't deserve a tie game/lead.

 

[NickZepp]

This game is at least tied going into the half.

 

[soonerhoops2012]

Listen to these yahoos. "Thats clearly a two". Really? that over the top view shows it was a three.

 

[NickZepp]

That looks like a 3 to me but they gave Spangler a 2.

 

[opsooner]

We can win this game if we will play smarter on offense.

 

[NickZepp]

Texas leads Kansas by 10.

Yeah. I certainly didn't see anything indisputable to overturn that...

 

[MNsooner]

I thought it was 2. It was close enough I'd think they would go with the floor call except that we are playing at Hilton.

 

[sheepdogs1]

So far so good. Just a half left for another road win.

As bad as that seemed, we are ties gentleman.0-0 let's go boys

 

[slappy in OP]

All things considered, we are in great shape. We took their shot and punched right back. This team is is fun to watch play.

 

[MNsooner]

I'm still not sure how we win this game if the refs let both teams keep playing this physical. We haven't shot a foul shot all game. As good of a foul shooting team as we are that is a huge disadvantage. I hope we attack the basket more and force them to make the calls.

It was only bad from the 17 to 9 minute marks. The rest of the half we played well.

Yeah, they've been VERY physical against us down low, and we are getting nothing.
Where'd those new rules go?

 

[NickZepp]

I see a 3 from that angle. There's space between his foot and the line.

 

[MNsooner]

Yikes. That is CLOSE. I think you go with the class on the floor there. Road games, though. You don't get any gifts.

 

[NickZepp]

Texas leads Kansas by 14 late in the 1st half.

I know. That's why I said it "seemed" bad but in reality it's a good game. Carry us on your back Buddy hield!!!

 

[MNsooner]

One first half hero was Jelon Hornbeak who came in when are starters slumped and led the second team. I think he really stopped the bleeding while our starters settled down on the bench. His two baskets really ended our slump and gave us some much need production from the bench and the point guard position.
