This is the opposite of the game in Austin. We're sleepwalking (though not as badly as the horns did in the first game) and texas is playing with energy—especially their bigs, who had no spark at all in that first game but are all over it tonight.

Texas is playing as good as they can and are still down one

Man that was an obvious travel right? Come on stripes. At least Booker got that rebound and hit an outside shot, needed that

That was so obvious; weird that they let it go.

That's two obvious traveling calls on texas they've missed. There was an earlier one when a horn (not sure who) went to the floor with the ball and slid a good four or five feet.

I hope OU goes for a 2 for 1.

Two for one, NBA style?

Impatient on the alley oop pass.

LK takes a timeout at 49.7; Sooners ball - hopefully we can get a good shot early here.

Spangler traveled early on too. Just don't understand how they miss obvious stuff

Well we lead at the half. Texas didn't score the last 4 minutes.

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

Feels good to have a halftime lead. Hoping we can tighten up the D and get some transition opportunities in second half.

 

[DenverSooner]

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

It amazes me how easily the guys put half court shots on the rim. Just getting the ball that far takes some effort.

 

[sheepdogs1]

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

Considering we didn't play our best ball it's fortunate to have a lead.

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

Cousins and Hield must score. Struggled at K-State, struggling tonight. With Thomas out of the game with two fouls, just not enough scoring options. Lattin, as much as I like his athletic ability, is a liability on offense right now. Does have some good passes, but just does not look to score.

Got to make shots and I think Thomas is key to second half

Cousins made his first shot, a three pointer, and it's been fairly ragged since then.

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

I hope we make a few more passes on offense. We can get good shots against their D. Their shot blockers are good but they leave their guys and if we can make a few extra passes we can get inside looks for our bigs or chances for put backs.

Our D was better at the end. Hopefully, we start out that way in the second half.

Cousins, Hield and Woodard were a combined 4 for 19 in that half.

We're fortunate to be in this game, much less lead by one.
