Well I knew it would be tough but our guys did fight. That's a really good team... Gotta say I think the 2 best teams are playing for the title. But once again I can't staaaaand ISU...hopefully out boys have done enough for that 3 seed.

Wow, just saw another reply. Was that goaltending on ISU (McKay)? Sure was close to him pulling the ball off the rim.

Why can't you stand ISU? I love Hoiberg. They're fun to watch. Nothing but class. I hope they kill KU tomorrow.

Our "fans" suck.

A lot worse than the players, that's for sure!

I think it is their whiny fans that are tough to take - I like their team.

They aren't "fans."

These kids played their asses off tonight, tough luck at the end.

You are right. Some of these people are not OU basketball fans. They are OU basketball critics.

Ha losers complain about what people say.. winners just win. Hope our guys do that in the ncaas and not worry about hurt feelings

 

[slappy in OP]

Spangler worked hard in the paint the entire game against a relentless ISU team. It is a shame that he didn't finish the shot, but that shouldn't be how his game tonight is remembered.

I agree. He now has a chance a few days from now to make up for it. I am betting he will do just that. He plays his heart out for OU.

Totally agree.

 

[hoopsaustin]

Totally agree.

I like isu and hoiberg too. They play well together every year with new transfers yearly

 

[Kswhitetail]

Hoiberg is one of the best coaches in the league i think. A lot of respect for him and i also like the McCay kid. He plays hard and works hard on both ends. ISU is very good. Best of luck to them in the tourney

 

[BlackwellSooner]

Just can't help but feel terrible for Spangler. We all choke, and no one feels worse than he does.

Face it, even if we force overtime, they probably still win it with Niang the difference maker inside.

Tough loss, but we didn't lose to a dog, either.

I think we can get to the Sweet 16 with this team. At least..... After that it's all a crap shoot and depends on match ups.

 

[AdaSooner]

love it how so called fans call college kids soft, chokers, questioning their effort, or desire to win.. Be disappointed in the outcome but don't make it personal by insulting college kids.

Thank you! I'm sick of reading crap like that myself. Our players did their best to win this game. How sad that some of our fans can't give them credit for that.

 

[SoonerJK12]

To those trashing Spangler, grow up.

 

[usedtobe1]

I'm ready to move forward. This was a good game.

 

[Escape Goat]

Wow.

Got to give it up to Woodard tonight. He played very well and carried us for awhile. Buddy wasnt hitting and woodard knocked down a lot of big shots

I don't like all the negativity as well but it should be noted the basketball players have it easy compared to all the venom thrown at our football players on a plethora of message boards.

 

[BlackwellSooner]

This one hurt. If someone had told me that we would out offensive board them 16-7 and overal outboard them 43-27, I'd have said we win. Wow, just wow.
