OU/St. Joe's game thread

[Sooner98]

Figured I'd go ahead and start it.

12-10 OU, five minutes into it.

[shaun4411]

i consider it a victory already.

[Sooner98]

Uh oh, we've gone cold. 15-14, bad guys. Just over 10 min. to play, 1st half.

[shaun4411]

BSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[Youngsooner]

well.. we started off hot, maybe it will come back to us

[shaun4411]

i am blind need update

[Sooner98]

Still 15-14.

[Sooner98]

19-18 St. Joes, 7:01 left.

[Ruuuuuufus]

thats really deep underneath the basket to be taking a charge, especially as a big man...

[Youngsooner]

I think thats a BS charge call... really... AJ?

[SleestakSooner]

St Joes isn't missing jump shots at all. Now contested lay ups seem to be a problem for them. Blake looked lackluster and has been on the bench for the last five minutes.

[SoonerBOI]

need to capitalize on the TO.

[joeTsooner]

I am no bball expert, but we look sloppy, nervous and tenative.

I hope we find our mid-season form before it is too late

[SoonerBOI]

nice play there by L2. misses the ft though.

[IronSooner]

Pretty solid defense. Longar looking good

[SoonerBOI]

sweet move by L2.

[SleestakSooner]

Longar is going to have to carry OU, and he is doing a good job so far.

Blake is getting pushed out and can't even get near the basket.

Sooners looking good, here's hoping they can make a nice run before the half and get some cushion

[Sooner98]

23-20 OU, under 4 to go, 1st half.

Yeah, what's up with Blake? I know he's still injured, but he did look pretty good against Missouri, the first game back after the surgery.

[Sooner98]

Beautiful sequence there. 27-20.

[IronSooner]

Man that was slick, start to finish. Nice steal, nice passes, nice bucket.

[SleestakSooner]

OU 23
SJU 20

3:42 to go first half


Omar makes two from the line

Godbold gets a steal

Blake finally gets a look on the break and makes an easy lay in to give OU a seven point lead!

[SoonerBOI]

Yes, BG!

[Youngsooner]

very nice play

[shaun4411]

ma boys on a run!

[SoonerBOI]

We need to clamp down on Fergie.

[sooner2b09]

27-22 2:40 left

[shaun4411]

theyre gonna get tired double teaming griffin all night long.

[shaun4411]

espn updates slowly!

[sooner2b09]

Nice pass!

[Sooner98]

32-22, thirty-eight seconds left.

[Newbomb Turk]

great first half so far. A score and a stop would be sweet.

[IronSooner]

Pretty crisp all around. I'm loving the defense. 8 turnovers in the first half for a team who averages 13 or so for a game. Not bad at all.

[SleestakSooner]

Sooner defense has all but shut these flappy hawks down since the ten minute mark.

Godbold especially is doing an awesome jorb defending Calethis (sp?) who is supposedly their best player but has only gotten one shot off and missed that!

[birddog]

sweet fancy moses what a way to end the half!!

[Newbomb Turk]

nice.

[Sooner98]

BEAUTIFUL shot by Blake, man this guy is special. 34-22 OU, halftime. Me likey!!

[IronSooner]

Wow, sweet finish to the half. Nice shot Blake.

[SleestakSooner]

That was about the best half of basketball this team has played all year. Keep it up boys!

[shaun4411]

define irony:

i have to work tonight during the game. i get a 20 min break tonight after the game starts, but before it ends. my break is during the 20 minute period of the game called "halftime". when halftime ends, i must return to work with no tv.

:(

[MITSooner]

Is this the first year they've been showing the games online? Glad I can watch it when Oregon/Miss St is on local TV.

I really like the Boss button. Came in VERY handy, prob saved my job.

No ****! BTW... do you think you could part their defense like that thing you did with the red sea?;)

[MojoRisen]

I heard St. Joe was going to try and get into a half court game. I laughed - I figured our Defense and big men would do well.

How is the foul trouble if any???

[Boomer.....]

We have an Al Eshback sighting.

[birddog]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

[Boomer.....]

3!

[Newbomb Turk]

If Godbold hits 3's they are in trouble.

[Sooner98]

Godbold starts the second half the way he did the first, by hitting a 3!

[SoonerBOI]

The Pope is cheering for St. Joe's, so we have to finish them now!

[Newbomb Turk]

and again!

[birddog]

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Boomer.....]

3! :D

[sooner2b09]

we are letting them get easy layups,

Godbold for THREE!!

40-26 18:00

[birddog]

[Boomer.....]

OU - 42
St. J - 26

[Sooner98]

WOOT!!!!! OU by 19, baby!!

[Boomer.....]

Another!

[birddog]

[Ruuuuuufus]

Wow, just pressed the Boss button. Very useful info!

[colleyvillesooner]

Godbold is playing the way he has to for us to win.

WOOT!!!!!!!

[IronSooner]

Oh, What?!!!

[SoonerBOI]

Godbold again and again!

[SleestakSooner]

GODBOLD on fire!!!!

3 threes and two free throws to start the second half!

Sooners up by 19 now

[sooner2b09]

Godbold is on FIRE!

[shaun4411]

the 3 point barrage. i called it!

[Norman Sooner]

Boys playing well, St Joes calling timeouts like its going out of style...

[colleyvillesooner]

Lets drop the hammer now boys...

What I see is:

[Boomer.....]

Nice jumper by Longar

[colleyvillesooner]

Longar hitting the jumper is just gravy now

[Boomer.....]

OU - 49
St. J - 32

15:30 left

[sooner2b09]

AJ with the nice little bank

[IronSooner]

Weak foul

[Sooner98]

49-32 OU, 15 minutes left.

[Flying Scotsman]

Hang on chaps!!

[Boomer.....]

Why does their band wear hockey jerseys?

[Boomer.....]

Dunk by BG! Great job breaking the press.

[Newbomb Turk]

nice dish from AJ to Blake.

[IronSooner]

We're shooting 63%. Unreal.

[Boomer.....]

Wow, 60% shooting by us.

[Ardmore_Sooner]

I just got off work, and feel like Krusty the Clown running into the town meeting after Mr. Burns blocked the sun.

Where was this all year long?!

[birddog]

i'm sorry but maestro is right, martelli looks just like frank barone.

[sooner2b09]

Why does their band wear hockey jerseys?

I was wondering that too.

Looks like they are switching away from the game :(

[Boomer.....]

I just got off work, and feel like Krusty the Clown running into the town meeting after Mr. Burns blocked the sun.

It was there, but only in spurts.

[birddog]

I was wondering that too.

Looks like they are switching away from the game :(

fine with me. it means we don't have to sweat one out.

[Boomer.....]

I was wondering that too.

Looks like they are switching away from the game :(

Not where I am.

[birddog]

and the sec sucks.

[shaun4411]

IronSooner We're shooting 63%. Unreal
Wow, 60% shooting by us.

what's unreal is how the shooting % went from 63 to 60 in the same minute!

[sooner518]

we are just on fire. knock on wood. 13 more minutes. lets not make this one close boys!!

52-33

[colleyvillesooner]

Switched away in Dallas.

Thank god for the wireless laptop and cbssportsline.com

[Sooner98]

C'mon guys, keep the double-digit lead.

[colleyvillesooner]

wow, open cheering for St Joes from Raferty...

[Boomer.....]

what's unreal is how the shooting % went from 63 to 60 in the same minute!

:les: STFU!


:D

[shaun4411]

We have an Al Eshback sighting.

nobody can see him unless he was sitting right in front of you. he's a leprechaun

[Boomer.....]

Still up 14 with 11 minutes to go.

[MITSooner]

for those who have been cut off, you can watch it online at http://www.ncaasports.com/mmod

[Sooner98]

Holy carp, the lead is down to 11.

[Boomer.....]

Yup, these announcers have got to go.

[shaun4411]

for my 400th post, id like to say OU WILL WIN THEY KICK bASS

[colleyvillesooner]

Come on Raferty, just start singing their fight song...you know you want to...

[sooner518]

ever since they switched away from it here in Denver, we've sucked. lead at 9. oy

[Sooner98]

The lead went from 19 to 9 in like, 3 minutes. This isn't sitting well with me right now.

[Norman Sooner]

Down to 9 with 10 to go..my heart is beating a little faster now...

[Boomer.....]

Free throw shooting is killing us!

[Newbomb Turk]

wtf!?

:mad:

[Ground_Attack]

poor FT shooting is hurting right now

[SleestakSooner]

Damn... hang on guys!

[Newbomb Turk]

just have to make it interesting.

[sooner2b09]

just show the game here in Colorado, we were doing well when i was watching it on tv!

[Newbomb Turk]

L2 with the sweet move!

followed by the brick from the line.

[Boomer.....]

w00t! Longar with an and one.

[Boomer.....]

We can't keep them off of the offensive boards. :mad:

[sooner518]

good grief Longar, good shot but make a free throw tonight!

due to watching online, everything I say is like 30 seconds behind.

nice stop1!!!

[Sooner98]

OU up 56-45, 7:49 to go.

[Norman Sooner]

I would normally say that shooting free throws on every fould with 10 minutes to go is a good thing...With us, i think i would rather run time with offensive possessions...

[tru2ou]

I sure am glad we're getting the 13 point Sienn Vandy game here in Wichita instead of Ou. I'm sure there are a lot of Sienna fans here. Dumbasses.

[SleestakSooner]

It's gotten ugly and SJU is getting a bit rowdy. Fouls adding up for the Hawks and Sooners still with a double digit lead and the ball.

Would be nice to see some better shooting from OU right now but the Hawks defense is so frenzied it is hard to get an open look.

under eight to play and OU up by 11

[Sooner98]

must make free throws...must make free throws...must make free throws...

[sooner2b09]

Thank you CBS, they switched back!

[Sooner98]

I sure am glad we're getting the 13 point Sienn Vandy game here in Wichita instead of Ou. I'm sure there are a lot of Sienna fans here. Dumbasses.

Right in the heart of Big 12 country, they show a non-Big 12 game, when they could be showing a Big 12 game? Weird.

[tru2ou]

BTW, Rafftery can suck it. Be a bigger SJU homer.

[Boomer.....]

Back to a 9 point lead with 6:30 left.

[Sooner98]

ARRGH Longar! The lead down to 7.

[Boomer.....]

7

:mad:

[birddog]

come on, man.

[Boomer.....]

Thank Godbold!

[sooner2b09]

Godbold for THREE!

Got it!

[IronSooner]

Did they call this many fouls in the first half?

[birddog]

goldbold is saving our bacon today.

[MI Sooner]

How is Raftery a SJU homer?

[Newbomb Turk]

lucky bastages.

[Sooner98]

Whatever. :rolleyes:

[tru2ou]

Banjed in 3 by SJU to cut to 7

[Boomer.....]

7 point lead with 5:30 left.

Timeout.

[Ardmore_Sooner]

The just wont go away!

[MI Sooner]

When exciting things happen, announcers get excited. I team coming from 19 down is exciting.

[IronSooner]

Amazing how they seemingly learned how to shoot at halftime

[sooner518]

good grief. bank shot 3. bull****

[shaun4411]

cheaters tried to give them 2 pts when ou was to get 3!1!!!

[kevpks]

Off the glass. Are you freakin kidding me?

[OUMonster]

Ugh. Wish we could expand leads instead of letting them shrink.

[tru2ou]

He just gave Martelli a high five after the banked in three.

[Ruuuuuufus]

time to finish it boys

[Flying Scotsman]

Pray!!

[Boomer.....]

Good job Crocker. Making his FTs.

[tru2ou]

Its as easy as this. If we make free throws the rest of the way, we win.

[shaun4411]

comes to show how muy importante the free throws are!

[Boomer.....]

*shakes head*

[Norman Sooner]

oh lord here we go

[IronSooner]

This game just keeps getting better

[sooner2b09]

How is that a foul!? Blake was straight up

[shaun4411]

this is when i get butterflies in me belly. kinda like the first time i lost my virginity.

[birddog]

gonna be a nailbiter. damnit.

[IronSooner]

There was no foul there. Whatsoever

[birddog]

this is when i get butterflies in me belly. kinda like the first time i lost my virginity.

just curious. how old are you?

[sooner2b09]

Who hired the Saint Joes announcers to do this game?

[Norman Sooner]

I wish we cold stop them 1 freaking time....

[birddog]

nice work, blake.

6 point lead.

[tru2ou]

Whoever said Rafftery wasnt a homer for SJU needs to listen to the last minute of this game.

[shaun4411]

man. whenever they get close. ou pulls out 4 more points.

[Sooner98]

67-61 OU, 3:06 to go. I need a drink.

[Norman Sooner]

stop them dangit!!!!!!!!

[shaun4411]

just curious. how old are you?

25

[birddog]

blake g. every damn time down the floor!

[shaun4411]

it would have been cool if godbold just stopped and hung a 3 right there instead of holding back

[sooner2b09]

These refs need to let them play like they did in the first half, too many fouls

[Sooner98]

69-61, 1:13 to go.

[snp]

Kinda surprised we haven't switched up the defense all game. I'd like to see something new coming out of this TO.

[Sooner98]

Could have sworn that was a travel there.

[Frozen Sooner]

Man, just got home from work. I was teaching a class so I hadn't been able to keep up-last I saw we were up like 21 and then I guess St.Joe's went on a run?

Strangely enough, I was thinking in the car "Man, I hope this isn't one of our patented 'get up big in the NCAA tourney and then flame out' deals".

[sooner2b09]

Come on, just pull it out, a win is a win, i dont care how we get it

[Newbomb Turk]

free.

I hate you.

[sooner2b09]

Bring on Boise! I can deal with seeing that bogus ending to the fiesta a few more times in order to shut up some spud fed fans.

[GottaHavePride]

Thank you SJU for accepting fate and going quietly instead of prolonging the last 15 seconds.

Thank you, ****ing CBS, for switching to Oregon / Mississippi State while there's 15 seconds left of OU / SJU and the ball is in play. ****ing *********s.

[bri]

Raff was Raff. He's excitable, but I didn't think he was "openly rooting" for either team.

Lundquist, on the other hand, was p*ssing me off. Methinks he needs to stick to calling Alabama/Arkansas football games that no one watchs and stop f*cking up OU games. :D

[SleestakSooner]

Game spek for all you F'n Hillbillies! Oh and you too SoonerGirl71 :)

[birddog]

when was the last time we advanced? 2003?

[shaun4411]

one game away from a respectable exit.

[SoonerObsession]

Godbold may have been the player of the game, but I was a close second for taking one for the team. I picked St. Joes on my bracket knowing that was all it would take to give the Sooners a for sure win. ;)

[birddog]

i picked st. joes. i've learned to never pick the sooners to win.

[bri]

Well, I learned that back in the glory days of Calvinball. But this is a brave new world, where I would have no problem whatsoever predicting Sweet 16 or better for this team...if only our best player didn't have Jason White's old knees right now and our second best inside presence didn't have a broken bone in his leg. :D

[Soonerus]

It all depends on the guards' play...

[Newbomb Turk]

I can't wait till Godbold graduates.

[getrdone]

godbold played a heck of a game today, finally stepped up like a senior should

[Norman Sooner]

i picked st. joes. i've learned to never pick the sooners to win.


I picked St Joes, i admit it also..I was trying the whole reverse psychology thing..I cussed my wife because she has us going to the Elite 8, i was politely thanking her for screwing up our chances..

[IronSooner]

Goldbold burying 3's and AJ having a solid game were big. In the first half it was really pretty even...everybody played pretty well. Glad to see us hang on like that.

[Norman Sooner]

Im to lazy to look, but does anyone know what time we play on sunday?

[Newbomb Turk]

Im to lazy to look, but does anyone know what time we play on sunday?

Yeah, and Blake is in the Big 10.

[Sooner98]

when was the last time we advanced? 2003?

In '05 we beat Niagra, before losing to the Utah Fightin' Andrew Boguts in the second round.
