***Official*** OU vs WVU thread

[SleestakSooner]

OU up 4-0 early!

[Newbomb Turk]

This other damn game needs to END!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SleestakSooner]

No ****! Finally over, thanks Zags for sucking btw... :(

[Newbomb Turk]

so much for that early lead.

this flood control sucks.

[SleestakSooner]

WVU ties it up at 6

first TV timeout

[SleestakSooner]

so much for that early lead.

this flood control sucks.

Oh well, it gives me time to run back and forth from the TV ;)

BTW game is on ESPN 2

[Newbomb Turk]

nice little jumper by AJ

8-6 OU

[Newbomb Turk]

AJ on fire.

10-8 OU

[Newbomb Turk]

I had completely forgotten that Huggins went to WV.

[AlabamaSooner]

Grey = ghey

[SleestakSooner]

No video input!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[okienole3]

Sit down Bob.

[SleestakSooner]

WVU in early foul trouble... Sooners playing hard but a bit sloppy. Defense is good on both teams so far making the offenses look awful.

[Newbomb Turk]

Sit down Bob.

why is it basketball coaches named Bob are a$$holes?

[okienole3]

West Virginian's are hillier billies than we are.

[SleestakSooner]

I had completely forgotten that Huggins went to WV.

We owe him a bit of payback for the last time one of his teams visited Norman. :mad:

[okienole3]

why is it basketball coaches named Bob are a$$holes?


Good question. Same reason basketball coaches named Kelvin are I suppose.

[Newbomb Turk]

Good question. Same reason basketball coaches named Kelvin are I suppose.

I wouldn't say that about Kelvin. He was pretty cool the one time I talked to him.

[okienole3]

Travel on AJ was missed.


Blake is a BEAST

[okienole3]

Free throws from here on out. I like it. If we can make them.

[SleestakSooner]

WOW they are calling this game REALLY TIGHT!

Longar was called for breathing too hard

OU in the bonus now on the line
1 of 2

OU 11
WVU 10

[Newbomb Turk]

ugly game.

OUr guys are gettin after it.

[SleestakSooner]

Blake makes one of three tries and OU is up by two whole points again with 7:55 left in the first half.

Blake is playing like a kid possessed but can't put it in the basket.

Is it my imagination or did the WVU team suddenly get a lot darker after Huggins arrival?

[Frozen Sooner]

It would be TRULY outstanding if we could hit free throws consistently.

Remember back in 2001? We were automatic at the line. *sigh*

Oh, well. You recruit bigger players who can play in the paint and they tend to have issues at the line.

[Newbomb Turk]

15-12 OU after a Moose 3.

7:00

[SleestakSooner]

Clark rattles in a loooong three

OU 15
WVU 12

[Frozen Sooner]

PARK'S CLOSED!

Moose out front shoulda told ya.

[Newbomb Turk]

reminds me of the Gonzaga game. Slow start by both teams.

[Frozen Sooner]

You know, I really like the fact that Capel got on to Blake after the SFA game and Blake responded. Lots of energy from that kid right now.

[Newbomb Turk]

who is the color guy in this game?

He sucks.

[Newbomb Turk]

What a jam - Shut that damn crowd UP!!

haha.

[SleestakSooner]

OMG AJ to Blake aley OOP!

OU 20
WVU 22

[soonermeteor]

nice dunk to quiet down the crowd.... too bad west virginia can hit their 3's

[Frozen Sooner]

Bleah. Where's our perimeter D?

[SleestakSooner]

WVU starting to make their shots now.

Godbod with a nice bounce step gets fouled on the shot

[Newbomb Turk]

needed that 3 by Godbold.

now play some D.

24 all

[SleestakSooner]

Sooners need to spend about three straight days doing nothing but shooting free throws.

Godbold for three!

Game tied up at 24 final minute of first half

grrr big pasty white guy with a lucky roll and picks up the foul

36 seconds left

WVU up 26 - 24 with a foul shot to come

[soonermeteor]

good to see capel getting after them

[SleestakSooner]

Crocker with a wide open shot from three point land but it rattles out.

WVU up 3 with the ball and ten seconds left

[soonermeteor]

should be all tied up if oklahoma had hit their last 3 free throws

[OSUAggie]

who is the color guy in this game?

He sucks.

Len Elmore.

Big East/Mary Land supreme homer. He's having one of his better games, though.

[SleestakSooner]

The spacing and size of the Mountaineer players makes it look like there is absolutely no room to maneuver. Sooners are playing hard and have played almost as well on defense except for that brief laps where they made three 3's in a row.

[soonermeteor]

Yeah, it looks like the sooners are running into a wall with those WV players.

[Newbomb Turk]

at the scoring pace of this game, it is darn near getting out of hand.

[soonermeteor]

WV starting to pull ahead, Oklahoma needs a stop....


or a nice three by godbold!

[Newbomb Turk]

and just like that, it's a scorefest.

[soonermeteor]

could have taking the lead if we hit our free throws

[Newbomb Turk]

reminds me of the Gonzaga game. Slow start by both teams.

and now the scoring picks up.

[SleestakSooner]

once again OU can't hit their free throws

Alexander is killing us

Sooners hanging in there though

OU 36
WVU 38

OU ball with 15:20 left

[SleestakSooner]

only two points down after 12 turnovers and missing 8 free throws

Longar

[SleestakSooner]

BLOCK OUT DAMMIT!

[SleestakSooner]

Now the officials have swallowed their whistles

WVU still hitting open threes

Blake down, just a cramp hopefully

[SleestakSooner]

MOOSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Newbomb Turk]

their fans whine a bunch.

what a move by Clark.

[SleestakSooner]

Blake getting beat up

Offense has gone stagnant again

OU 40
WVU 44

under 12 minute TV timeout

[soonermeteor]

back to a two points game... need a stop and a basket

[SleestakSooner]

Good God I hope that was a pass

Longar hits an easy layup

Alexander comes right back to put the Neers back up by four

[Newbomb Turk]

****ing free throws!!!

:mad:

[soonermeteor]

if we lose this game close it will be because of awful shooting from the line.... really sad when a great effort on the floor is falling short because the free's are missed



or wide open threes.... thats probably the thing that bugs me the most when watching basketball

[Newbomb Turk]

damn 3's are killing us.

[soonermeteor]

god blake... espn highlight there

[Newbomb Turk]

their fans boo and bitch about everything.

gawd I hope we kick their asses in the Fiesta Bowl.

[SleestakSooner]

not looking good now... at all

WVU now up 51-47, after a nice move by Longar

Blake with an amazing play steals the ball hits the floor to get possession, keeps his dribble going, pops up and drives the baseline to hit a crazy finger roll layup. We are talking SportsCenter top ten #1 play here! AMAZING!

[soonermeteor]

oklahoma needs a stop and were beginning to run out of time...


and if i were West Virginia, i would just foul oklahoma evertime they go to the basket... well be down 20 in 5 minutes :pop:

[soonermeteor]

their fans boo and bitch about everything.

gawd I hope we kick their asses in the Fiesta Bowl.


I think the fans are so into it because they know they will lose when they play Oklahoma again on Tuesday, and none of them will be at the game. :cool:

[soonermeteor]

Costly turnover there.... were running out of time to make a move

[SleestakSooner]

OU still down by 6

TV time out with only 6:46 left to play

Alexander needs to get knocked on his *** like they are doing to Blake.

If you are not watching the second half of this game live I hope you at least recorded it. Capel has shown the ability to completely change his teams style of play if he feels the need. Defense suffers but this team can go into scoring mode when neccessary.

[Newbomb Turk]

not looking good.

can't stop them.

[Newbomb Turk]

L2 has some nasty elbows.

whine some more.

[NorthernIowaSooner]

longar hit a guy with a good elbow...again

[Blue]

BOOOYAAH!!!

[Triumph]

HOLLY ****

[soonermeteor]

Talk about a play! Oklahoma pulls within 1!

[Newbomb Turk]

:les: I like this team's resolve.

[SleestakSooner]

AJ with a nice swish from way down town. Godbold then makes two ft's to put OU within 3

then AJ makes the most amazing pass I have seen in years!!! Slam dunk to Blake running the court and OU is only one down!

[cheezyq]

Huggins is notorious for illegal physical play and HE's complaining about the physicality of the game???

[soonermeteor]

were tied at 60!


and oklahoma to the line!

[SleestakSooner]

Austin Johnson is on fiieahhh!

Hits a HUGE 3 to tie the game!

[Newbomb Turk]

Huggins is notorious for illegal physical play and HE's complaining about the physicality of the game???

exactly.

[cheezyq]

wv has good loud fans, but they don't know jack **** about basketball.

[Newbomb Turk]

win or lose, I like how this team has hung tough.

[cheezyq]

exactly.

Earlier one of WV's players was under the boards putting Blake in a sleeper hold. The irony of the Huggins whining was pretty ridiculous at that point.

[SleestakSooner]

Longar hits both!

Sooners take the lead 62-60!

[Blue]

sweet pass aj to blake for 2. 64-60 OU

[SleestakSooner]

Griffin gets another great feed from AJ OU up by 4!

[soonermeteor]

win or lose, I like how this team has hung tough.


Yes, their effort has been AMAZING!

[SoonerBOI]

we need a fg here. hi to everyone!

[Newbomb Turk]

what a game.

[Skysooner]

This is one ugly crowd.

[SleestakSooner]

WVU hits a nice post bank shot to get back within 2

1:27 left

OU 64
WVU 62

OU with the ball takes the clock down to 58 seconds then turns it over

Alexander hits a shot to tie it up

40 seconds left game tied again at 64

OU out of timeouts

[Spanish Sooner]

just need to get some sort of points here

[SoonerBOI]

Need to score guys.

[Newbomb Turk]

dang that was a lucky foul.

[Spanish Sooner]

hahaha, they are throwing the guy out

[SoonerBOI]

God make the free throws pls.

[soonermeteor]

classy mountaineer gets thrown out, nice for the WV coach to take charge though

[Blue]

no matter how bad the officiating is...

[Newbomb Turk]

****!

[Spanish Sooner]

00.1 man

[SoonerBOI]

what a game!

[soonermeteor]

god how did they give that up, oklahoma almost had that game

[cheezyq]

As much as I dislike Huggins, that was a pretty cool thing to do with the mic.

[NorthernIowaSooner]

the one thing i like most about capel is getting the guys to play, had longar diving for a loose ball earlier, blakes everywhere, its good to watch a team thats hustling their butts off

[Spanish Sooner]

i think we got this one, this team has played hard, we can do it

[SleestakSooner]

Wow folks we got us a game for the ages potentially going here.

Game is going to overtime tied up at 66

Goldbold nailed two free throws to put OU up but with only 12 seconds left Alexander makes a great move to get around Godbold and it looks like he has an easy layup when David comes from behind to block the shot... only to have the ball fall into the WVU guards hands for a very easy layup

[SOONER STEAKER]

NO matter the outcome, I like this team, were a damn good basketball team!!

[King Crimson]

awwright, i'm here.

[Spanish Sooner]

we can't turn the ball over like that

[Newbomb Turk]

not good.

[soonermeteor]

apparently oklahoma thought the game ended, WV goes up 5 fast and then okla turns it over

[NorthernIowaSooner]

where has our rebounding gone

[SoonerBOI]

we will spank you WVU come Fiesta Bowl...

[SoonerBOI]

We need a stop and a score to have a chance

[SleestakSooner]

not going well in OT

WVU with two buckets and foul to go up by 5 and now have the ball again

hang in there Soners!

[soonermeteor]

alright, got a stop now answer

or refs can call a travel

[King Crimson]

****.

[SleestakSooner]

Godbold gets fouled and nails both to put the Sooners back within 3

[SleestakSooner]

Godbold on the line again!

[King Crimson]

this possession is our chance, but i'm a little uneasy when Godbold is "taking over the game". but wtf?

[SoonerBOI]

God is tired. just make one.

[SleestakSooner]

41 seconds left

David misses the first but OU is in the bonus

Damn, he misses both

WVU timeout with the ball only 33 seconds left

[King Crimson]

front of the rim...never mind.

bob huggins has sweet hair.

[soonermeteor]

missed the two clutch free throws... need something lucky to happen

[King Crimson]

i like len elmore as an analyst. not often we get him doing our games.

[soonermeteor]

god, got the luck..... they missed the free throw, we turn it over ,and they turn it over back :pop:

[SleestakSooner]

Crazy sequence there but OU winds up with the ball and 16 seconds left still down by 3

[Newbomb Turk]

I wonder how much gas is left in the tank.

[soonermeteor]

awful pass there, off to the same start as the first OT

[SoonerBOI]

no way.

[King Crimson]

so what happened there, Longar just fell down of his own accord? that looked like a Sasha Kaun call to me.

[Newbomb Turk]

weak

weak call.

[cheezyq]

Wow, total B$ call.

[soonermeteor]

[Spanish Sooner]

[GottaHavePride]

Several potential ESPN top 10's in that one!

I absolutely loved the inbounds off the WVU player's a5s. Hilarious.

[Flying Scotsman]

Great thinking!!

The entire game was a highlite reel!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

you and me both. i'd have danced a jig to go 1 for 3 2 weeks ago.

That should get us ranked, or darn close!

[Spanish Sooner]

can't wait to watch the sportscenter recap of this one

[SleestakSooner]

I absolutely loved the inbounds off the WVU player's a5s. Hilarious.

a little insult to injury there and a nice precursor to the Fiesta Bowl!

BOOMER!

btw we need some damn Basketball icons! kthx

[tommieharris91]

So did anyone DVR this game?

[crawfish]

So did anyone DVR this game?

I did...but I only set it to go 30 minutes over, so I missed most of the last OT...

GREAT WIN!!! Blake Griffin is a MAN.

[OKC-SLC]

I just got done watching the game on DVR (crawfish, i set mine up to go 2 hrs over for every OU game, football or bball--heh)

what a great game. this team is really establishing an identity.

and what a difference we've seen with all the movement on the offensive end. actually scoring some points.

[OKC-SLC]

and yes, BGriffin is a beast, and his hustle is contagious.

[IronHorseSooner]

Every player, to a man, was clutch, in some way, tonight. For them to win with Blake on the bench was HUGE!!! Let the legend of Blake "The Man-Child" begin!

[SoonerShark]

My dvd burner will not record unless I lower the DirecTV HD DVR from 1080i to 480i. Of course, current technologies blank disks won't handle HD sized files anyway. The copies are better than VCR quality but nothing like HD. I generally add an hour, but only added 30 minutes. Fortunately, I was watching the game and added 30 more minutes.

I called my brother to tell him we won. He is in San Antonio for the Alamo Bowl since Norman High School's band played down there in a Alamo Bowl halftime event. A&M was up 14-0 without my support. Now it's 17-14 Penn State.

There's a good thread on AVSForum about burning HD DVD on red laser DVDs. However, the main problem isn't the file size-it's the data rate. Your standard red-laser DVD player can't handle the bitrate that HD content requires.

[SleestakSooner]

Of course ESPN barely mentioned Blake or Johnson in their highlights from the game. Showed absolutely NONE of the highlight reel material and only the ugly drive and foul on Godbold and the three that tied it up at the end of the first OT by Crocker.

[badger]

Supposedly they're re-playing it on Monday at noon, so we'll be DVR-ing that! WOW what a game! We were on a plane the whole day, so we missed it. I can't wait to watch us beat the moontineers! :)

[Ash]

This is a huge win for this team. That was a tough game. The physicality of the play was over the top (on both sides, but WVU was more aggressive). Hostile atmosphere. Having to come back multiple times. Sacking up in OT twice despite losing Griffin who had a huge game.

WVU isn't the best team OU will face this year, but that's the most impressive win of the season so far given the overall circumstances. Nails.

No joke. They can boo Longar all they want, but where was the outrage when the WVU guy had Blake Griffin in a headlock 5 minutes before that and it went uncalled?

[Ash]

Yup, I won't complain too much because the physical play was on both sides but I can remember sequences where OU would get called for ticky tack body checks on one side then get mugged and hacked by WVU on the other end.

BTW, I'm thinking maybe L2 needs a new nickname: NED, Ninja Elbows of Death. Watch your chin, sucka! :D

[MextheBulldog]

Great job by the team and Coach Capel!!

[rubyspirit]

LOL @ Longar's new nickname ... Watch your chin, sucka! :D

The BBall team took care of business, now its time for the FBall team to do it. :D

I'm glad it will repeat Monday night.

Here's ESPN's recap ...
