I am deeply concerned about our free throw shooting for the rest of the season. We’re gonna be in a lot of close games and right now, I don’t really trust anyone at the line other than Mo.
Gold wire out of position on consecutive buckets for UT.

KU wins by 1 after 3 more lead changes

We’ve actually shot free throws extremely well since the first two or three games of the season. The turnovers, on the other hand, will continue getting us beat. The past few years, the anti-Lon faction scoffed when people pointed to strengths such as not turning the ball over and not fouling, but how nice would it be to see us cut our turnovers down to about 11 or 12 per game.
All the offensive numbers are up compared to last year… not much but up.
Rebounds are better as well.
We are avg 3 more TO’s per game than last yr.
I certainly wasn't counting on us winning tonight -- I figured we probably wouldn't -- but I did count on us being competitive, on the team being motivated and ready to play. We weren't, to an embarrassing degree.
We can only hope this game is a huge anomaly, one we later look back on and scratch our heads over. We never even got within single digits. The team tonight just wasn't ready to play a road game and certainly not a rivalry road game.
The pressure is very much on now to win at TCU, or we could very possibly be looking at a six-game losing streak. That's not Chicken Little talk, either. After TCU, we play KU (at home, thankfully), Baylor (ditto), at WVU and at home against Auburn, currently ranked #4 in the country.
We could win all of those games, of course, but if we play half as badly as we did tonight, we won't win any of them.
That is why I stay away during games, wait until next day or few hours once game is over before posting anything...The loss was clearly because OU played poorly and horns played betterEvery time we play bad the refs gets blamed. It’s pretty funny.
