**********OU-TCU Game Thread**********

[NickZepp]

Most pathetic half of OU basketball I've ever seen. Blown out by one of the two or three worst teams in the conference in the past 15 seasons.


TCU remains terrible though, so a comeback is possible. Wouldn't want to be in that locker room right now though.

You haven't watch much OU basketball the last few years have you? I agree we played absolutely terribly but I think it was because we have no reason to play for anything in the game. This game was lost about an hour before the start of the game when OSU beat KSU.

22 points is a TALL order for a comeback...

UT did it, and they didn't even need a full half. :facepalm

If we can get any momentum, we've got a shot, but if we can't win the first five minutes of the second half, it's going to get ugly.

Okay then. It would be 44-25. :woot



Maybe they'll run some line drills at halftime.

No line drills yet here in the colleseum

Tcu is a historically bad team. I mean they suck bad and they're kicking the crap out of us. They may be the worst team in conference history. We beat them by 30-40 last time. We're not even competitive in this game. If we are one and done in the big12 tourney, it's not out of the question that we get left out. We could still miss the tourney and end up in NIT.

Kruger is beyond mad.

I hope so. His team was not ready to play, that's for sure. That may be one of the worst 20 minutes of basketball I have seen in sometime. It wasn't just our offense. They were bad on defense, too.

Tough to come back on the road from this deficit - even against a bad team. We gave them a lot of confidence in that half.

Funny how you only show up when we're playing bad.

You sure you are even a Sooner fan?

 

[Keller Sooner]

They lose this one today, and it sure looks like they will, the program takes a huge step backwards.

 

[SoonerTraveler]

We have the option of turning the TV off.

I feel so bad for those Fans and Tip In Club members that took the bus trip to this game. Disappointing. Discouraging. Disgusting.

Hoping for a miracle in the 2nd half.

Does the TCU court have an odd visual behind the hoops? I guess we could just be shooting THAT poorly, but usually when you see so many shots, so far off, it's b/c the court is "odd" in some way. Even lack of concentration usually doesn't result in shots that poor.

It's a road game yes, but it's against like 27 TCU fans.

All that talk of senior leadership goes out the window. I'm beyond angry right now.

Overreact much?

It's only odd to KU and us.

Yeah I'm a sooner fan, just not a sunshine pumper. Let me guess. You decide who's a fan and who isn't.

Can't remember anything like this happening to a decent OU team playing a team this bad.

Nah.

I just don't have any respect for "fans" that only show up and run their mouth at the lowest points of the season. That isn't a fan.

 

[AdaSooner]

How do you like these first half stats: Fitz leads the team in scoring with 6 points. TCU a + 7 on the boards. TCU with 18 assists, OU with 5.

I nearly threw up after looking at the halftime boxscore:

There was a reason Kelvin Sampson had probably just as many haters as fans on OU boards.
