OU vs #1 Houston 7pm CST on ESPN2

[WTSooner]

We made more of a game of it than I thought we would. Offense was pretty good. Crazy that we don't play that fast/aggressive all the time.

D wasn't good at all. Yes, Houston made some shots, but they got what they wanted much of the night, and did so with a banged up roster.

We'll see what OU teams shows up the rest of the way.

 

[WTSooner]

Good job wt, find a way to bitch. Your ass wouldn't show up if we won.

I've been here all night.

GTFOOH

 

[TINY]

This one really hurts. OU deserved to win today. Houston gets 5 pts with under 1 second left in both halves and wins.

Houston had a horseshoe up their asses tonight.

 

[hoopsaustin]

We just took the #1 team in the country to the wire. But yeah, let's talk about how this team doesn't belong in the tourney and isn't tough enough.

We may not be. we'll see..

 

[IBSooner]

The thing is they belong. Will the get the win in the next two to get in

How did we “deserve” to win? They made two big time plays while we failed to play basic defense in one situation and failed to fall on a loose ball. They also played without a lot of key guys for long stretches. They deserved it every bit as much as we did.

It's not up to us unfortunately. Gotta win when you need to!

 

[dksooner]

Your favorite player is pledger, lol

 

[outest]

Both of our point guards can't defend and get outmuscled by other guards. They really both need to pump iron.

 

[SoonersFan]

OU is the only team to score 70+ (in regulation) on Houston all year.

That is impressive against the #1 defense!

 

[Eielson]

We may not be. we'll see..

If we don't get in, it sure wasn't based on tonight's performance.

 

[hoopsaustin]

That is impressive against the #1 defense!

I mean its cool i guess. But it doesnt matter. Unless we start playing like this the rest of the way or something

 

[SoonersFan]

I mean its cool i guess. But it doesnt matter. Unless we start playing like this the rest of the way or something

Yeah, at least Sooners made the Cougars earn this win so we could not ask more than that

 

[Boom Soon]

If we don't get in, it sure wasn't based on tonight's performance.

Tonight obviously doesn't help OU but it doesn't hurt them either. Like another poster said, can't let this game beat you twice. Gotta win on Tuesday.

If given the choice to play like we did tonight against Houston or Cincy, I would have chosen Cincy to guarantee the ncaas haha

 

[mict085]

We have to beat Cincy. It all comes down to this. Win and we’re in. Lose and we’re out.

Cryer and Shead are next level guys. Maybe we can find and/or develop someone that eventually plays near that level. Those guys are difference makers. We had some minutes there early in the second half where we didn't play smart....and that ended up being the difference. Still, this played extremely well tonight overall. Houston is #1 in the country for a reason.

KU scored 78 and blew them out.
