OU vs Duke on ESPN#

[SoonerNorm]

We trail 50-63. We have to make a run now if we are going to have a chance.

 

[SoonerNorm]

A turnover by Derica followed by charge. We can't have that.

 

[SoonerNorm]

73-53 Duke. Too many mistakes and no rebounding by the Sooners.

By the way, where is everybody? Am I the only one watching this game?

Don't worry. Syb will be along to tell you what you saw.

:ez-roll:

The Sooners just ran out of gas in the second half.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Duke wins 92-72.

 

[SoonerNorm]

When 3 of our starters only have 5 total points between them, you know it's probably not going to turn out well. Throw in the fact that Duke won the rebounding battle 57-22 and you know it's going to have a bad ending.

Out rebounded 57-22. Williams from Duke had 20 rebounds.

 

[SoonerNorm]

Gabbi, Gioya, and Derica all played well and did what they could to keep it close for a while.

Did not see the UALR game......did OU look better? My biggest issue besides free throws is that we are not going to win games if we only shoot threes. Yes, we need to rebound better but I don't know how much better that will or can be this year.

Love Derica Wyatt, Ortiz, Kornet and Gioya. I know most don't agree with the
last one but she is just a bit away from being really good..imo. Maybe she will never get over that hump, but still not given up on her.

Kornet had a bad night shooting. No inside play. OU is not the only one losing. Stanford just lost to Chattanooga. I believe this will help for conference play.

 

[jerry]

Carter got most of her points against Duke scrubs at the end.

i quit watching. It was embarrassing, On to softball.

If Derica and Ortiz are leading the team in scoring, it's not going to be a good result...

 

[SoonerNorm]

We have talked about our poor rebounding for several games. After tonight, maybe Sherri will start working on that aspect of the game more. There are three basic things to rebounding:

1. want to
2. block out
3. jump

Duke gave us a rebounding clinic tonight. I hope we learned from it.

 

[sybarite]

Well. We must have won. We had fewer turnovers.

Our interior didn't show up. I think it is time to sit Kay Kay, even if we have no other post available. She just isn't doing the job against any type of decent competition. Never has. I thought we would suffer on interior defense without Griffin. We have.

57-22, Really? And, we only lost by twenty? 57-22? Our leading rebounder is a 5-8 guard with 5? Second was a 5-10 guard with four?

Kornet didn't have a good day. But, she tried. Peyton and Sharane have to take more than ten shots between them. Zero for Kay Kay? Zero points?

Got some work to do, some changes to make.

We will let you know when they beat Arkansas and then you can come back, k?

 

[SoonerNorm]

Duke had a huge advantage in athleticism. Their players jumped. Like actually got off the floor! They did spin moves, fade aways, beat us to rebounds on free throws, you name it, they could do it.
