Very frustrating that with all of Texas' turnovers, we are only up 4. Positives: Buddy is awesome, defense is good, and Ro is a GD MAN out there. Negatives: REBOUNDING, Pledger needs to fight for his shot and WORK, Fitz needs to give us anything, Amath is playing great D, but needs to be aggressive and drive, REBOUNDING.

I guess I am happy to be up 4 but we still have a lot of work to do. Taking better care of the basketball will be a good start.

I expect every team we play from here on to put very tight pressure on the ball and attempt to deny the wing passes.

Incredibly sloppy half. Glad to have the lead.

The refs are certainly letting them go, and contributing to the sloppy play.

The officials must have a plane to catch. They're letting way too much stuff go. That said, OU has to adjust to the way the game is being called and be stronger with the ball.

Romero saved our butt in the first half. He came to play, and so did Hield and M'Baye to a lesser extent. The other guys on this team failed to show up.

I think Hield is the most promising talent we have had come in since Willie Warren.

He's a mid-range jumper away from being unstoppable

RO needs the ball just about everytime down the floor and take his guy. he cant guard him. cuz RO is making him respect his jumpshot and he can take him of the dribble.

pledger is just soft/weak. needs to just spot up and maybe take some 3's

its sad that these sr's cant give us much and our freshman are the better players

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

It's true. I will really miss RO, and the team will as well. The other seniors will be, if this trend continues, addition by subtraction. I am sorry to say it. Kruger is recruiting better players than they are.

Watch, the refs will come out and call 3 touch fouls in the first 2 minutes of the second half.

Lets have a much better second half!

At least on the TV screen, crowd appears pretty good. How full is it really and how has the noise level really been?

There's one.

And there's two.

 

[JBaker]

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

And how was that not a shooting foul?

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

Pledge finally defends the curl and the refs bail out the Horns anyway.

These. Officials. Suck.

Effing pledger. Leaves his guy wife open

What a bogus call on Pledge

Yeah, that was perfect defense. He shot right into him. That's not Pledger's fault.

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

Can Cousins shoot at all?

 

[kbsooner]

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

This is one of the uglier games I have seen in a long time... I hope we begin to value the ball these last 15 minutes...

Re: >>>>>>>>>>OU-Texas Game Thread<<<<<<<<<<<<

Let's be very aggressive here and see if we can get into the bonus. Seems like we are really focused on FT tonight.
