**********OU-TCU Pregame Notes/Game Thread**********

[rocjunkie]

We have to attack the zone, penetrate and force them to react, all we do is pass over the perimeter. Our defense is pathetic. Sure doesn't look like the same team that dominated the horns.

10 turnovers, but Morgan has 7 assists. Just need to play Sooner basketball in the second half.

Morgan isn't scoring tonight either.

 

[gosooner2]

I would sure like to have Cole

 

[gosooner2]

Is Durret in the doghouse

I would too. Kamy is a nice little player.

Morgan now has a double-double.

TCU coach needs to switch to decaf.

Another win on the road. Gotta pick up defensive intensity, especially on the road. Looks like Joanna had the game of her life. Hope she's in a groove for this season.

:clap

He was kicked out of game in Norman last year. He's no Kim Mulkey!

Good win on the road.:OU-logo:

Two kids with double-doubles tonight. Congrats to Morgan and Jo on a nice gritty performance. If Nicole can hit her free throws all five starters finish in double figures. Not very pretty, but 2 road wins and 3-0 in the conference. Lets work on that defense and send the Red Raiders home with a loss on Saturday.

If Kamy gets fed up with his grumpy attitude, we'll take her back and gladly make her a Sooner.

Except she would lose a year of eligibility if she transferred within the conference.

I dunno, it seems like she's really been bustin' butt ever since conference play started. She's had several good games now.

 

[Oliver Hardy]

She'd lose two years, I believe if it is in conference without the coach releasing her and even then it might be two years.

Oh, I totally agree! I just meant with 23 points and 11 or 12 rebounds. Isn't 23 points her career high? Yes, she has totally been busting her butt this season, especially after Whitney was injured.

 

[Keller Sooner]

Great job ladies! Whew. I was worried about that game. :woot

 

[Vinny78]

Awesome win, all road wins are great, BUT we didn't play any defense tonight. That won't get it done against the better teams, on the road or at home, IMO

I'm not as down on the defense as some. When you play a dribble drive team that only hits 30% of their treys you usually want them to take those NBA shots. Good strategy but didn't work as TCU could have bounced the ball off the roof and it would have gone in.

As in other games the Sooners increased their defensive pressure in the final minutes. Pretty good for a team whose five starters all played at least 33 minutes. We only had 23 minutes off the bench. This is a concern as that kind of minutes game after game could wear the team down by March and when they get worn down there will be more fouls and less intensity down the stretch.

Good road win. We outscored them by 14 when it counted.
