[JLEW1818]

boomer

[JLEW1818]

If tony starts the game off with a 3 we win!!!!

[Curly Bill]

Should I say something sarcastic about how we're gonna be beat by 50 to get the nOObs stirred up?

[JLEW1818]

we are gonna get beat by 50... hehe

[Curly Bill]

Well yeah...

[meoveryouxinfinity]

sooner!

[Eielson]

We're in the Final Five!

[Overtime]

I can't remember time ticking slower than it is right now. =0

[JLEW1818]

I'm thinking a

OU 84
NC 81

[Eielson]

Yes, we're going to lose by 50.

[Curly Bill]

OU 72
NC 65

[Rogue]

BG wins the tip.

[Eielson]

UNC 98
OU 48

[JLEW1818]

1 ON HASBROUGH!!!!!!!

[Rogue]

Toby Maguire with his first foul.

[Bosley]

I need to quit getting so into these games. I'm still wounded from the orange bowl.

[Rogue]

Tryin to set up the pick 'n roll (UNC), out D is doing well against the setup so far.

[JLEW1818]

kill em!!!!

[JLEW1818]

3 aint there

[JLEW1818]

LET BLAKE POST UP ****

[Rogue]

WTF?!

[JLEW1818]

wow 2 fouls on Tony Crocker...... Cade your time to shine

[yermom]

we ever gonna score? :O

[Rogue]

TG!

[yermom]

ok, Taylor looked good there :)

[JLEW1818]

foul on Blake Griffin. **** MY ****ING LIFE DAMMIT

[oumartin]

we may have everyone fouled out by halftime.. they are calling it pretty tight

[Rogue]

We need to drive inside on Hansbrough early and often.

[JLEW1818]

wow, i really didn't wanna drink today.... might have to, to get us back in this.

[Rogue]

we may have everyone fouled out by halftime.. they are calling it pretty tight

Seriously.

[Curly Bill]

I want to revise my prediction. :O :(

[Newbomb Turk]

ugly early.

[colleyvillesooner]

So the let em play early in the the rest of the tourney to let the players settle in, and we get 5 fouls in 4 mins.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Not liking this.

[meoveryouxinfinity]

we've gotten good looks but they're not falling.

[JLEW1818]

****, coach might have to play

[Rogue]

5 team fouls on OU
1 on UNC

[Newbomb Turk]

wow - a foul on UNC.

[JLEW1818]

wow they are calling it tight, both sides... i hate that

[Rogue]

Whazzis? A foul on NC?

[PhiDeltBeers]

cade waay off.

[Eielson]

We're screwed if we can't get Crocker back in there.

[AllAboutThe'O']

Good to see the Tebow of the hardwood missed that easy jumper inside.

[PhiDeltBeers]

No breaks.

[JLEW1818]

lucky

[Rogue]

we've gotten good looks but they're not falling.

I agree, but the announcer says they aren't "quality looks."
Whatever.

[meoveryouxinfinity]

we are playing tight/nervous as shyttt

[PhiDeltBeers]

Just gettin killed!

[JLEW1818]

alright the beer is out!!!!!!!!! give it time, i got this guys.

[Al Gore]

Turnovers and can't hit shots....

[King Crimson]

ugh

[meoveryouxinfinity]

I agree, but the announcer says they aren't "quality looks."
Whatever.

AJ doesn't have any confidence .. he won't take a long 3 that he CAN make, i've seen him do it.

[oumartin]

I'm not liking this game. has that lousiville game from last year feel to it. Blake doesn't miss shots like he has today

[Rogue]

What a craptastic start.

[Curly Bill]

alright the beer is out!!!!!!!!! give it time, i got this guys.

What? You think you can knock down those open looks, or not turn the ball over?

[AllAboutThe'O']

Mizzou was in the same boat yesterday; dug a big hole early but managed to climb out of it and took the lead in the 2nd half. Still a long way to go guys.

[PhiDeltBeers]

NC doesn't seem to be having problems hitting their shots.

[OUAlumni1990]

What we need to do is drink more beer and yell louder at the TV!

[Eielson]

I'm not liking this game. has that lousiville game from last year feel to it. Blake doesn't miss shots like he has today

Yeah, except without somebody (Godbold) bailing us out early on.

[Sooner98]

2 points in 6 minutes. Outstanding.

[JLEW1818]

2 points through 6 minutes....against NC,.... yikes

[Rogue]

WW lights the board

[PhiDeltBeers]

11 point game geeze.

[JLEW1818]

I wanna fight Hansb and his gay *** dad

[E-Town]

Somewhere out there Scottie Reynolds is enjoying this one.

[Rogue]

What we need to do is drink more beer and yell louder at the TV!

OK, I'm in.

[PhiDeltBeers]

I likey!

[JLEW1818]

2 ON HANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

HUGE BREAK

[AllAboutThe'O']

Two on the Right Reverend Tyler T. Messiah.

[meoveryouxinfinity]

Blake almost flipped that panzy over like Ameer Ali

[Eielson]

Patillo! The first big play since...well, a long time.

Woo! Hansbrough got Blair/Ali/Griffined!

[PhiDeltBeers]

Patillo!

[JLEW1818]

Here we go!

[GrapevineSooner]

Fouls starting to even them up.

And the midseason El Chupacabra has reappeared at the most opportune of times.

[JLEW1818]

WW!!!!!!

[PhiDeltBeers]

Double dub!

[Sooner98]

Has Ty Lawson ever missed a shot in his career?

[Rogue]

Glad to see they call a few in a row on NC too.

[JLEW1818]

man they are calling this **** tight

[Eielson]

Another foul! :eek:

[Rogue]

Refs are ruining this game.
:mad:

[PhiDeltBeers]

We've got to take advantage of TH sitting.

[Curly Bill]

Willie is stepping up!

[Eielson]

I love how UNC has 5 fouls on their 2 white guys, and 1 on their five black guys. It's OBAMA!

[Curly Bill]

Willie is stepping up!

Only guy we have capable of breaking peeps down off the dribble.

[JLEW1818]

dumb shot selection

[Rogue]

Willie from across the street

[Eielson]

Has Ty Lawson ever missed a shot in his career?

Yeah, he has, but Hansbrough hasn't.

[Sooner98]

3's not falling for us = loss.

[Rogue]

So muchy for ball control

[meoveryouxinfinity]

down by 9 AGAIN

[PhiDeltBeers]

how was that not a foul on Taylor?!!!

[JLEW1818]

we look like Syracuse

[Rogue]

Crappy ball control
Poor shooting
Not rebounding offensively

[PhiDeltBeers]

We've got to get some shots to fall.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Blake!

[JLEW1818]

I'm nervous

[oumartin]

Doesn't Roy williams substitute all the time anyway? It has nothing to do with OU's short bench

[Eielson]

I wonder if Blake will have more rebounds than our team has points.

[Bosley]

This sucks.

[Curly Bill]

A big problem for us is our guys can't play as aggressive as we need to because we don't have any depth.

[PhiDeltBeers]

This could get uglier.

[StoopTroup]

I'm nervous

MAN UP !

[Sooner98]

Okay, we have firmly established that this will be one of those 4 for 26 type games from the 3 point line, if we continue shooting them. Coach needs to recognize this, and make the proper adjustments (i.e. make sure Blake touches the ball every single time up the court).

[Eielson]

I'm nervous

Not me. I kinda feel we need to be in the game to be nervous.

[StoopTroup]

This could get uglier.

Or...it cOUld get better?

Act like Sooners boys!

[King Crimson]

only bright spot so far is the kung pao chicken i ordered. it's very good.

no answer for Lawson. and we need stops.

[JLEW1818]

Starting to slip...

need to hit a 3 fast

[StoopTroup]

Not me. I kinda feel we need to be in the game to be nervous.

It's just the first half...chin up.

[Eielson]

Refs still hatin on the white boys...

[meoveryouxinfinity]

I said the key to this game would be rebounding!!! not happening!

[PhiDeltBeers]

Or...it cOUld get better?

Act like Sooners boys!

Sorry bout my glass half empty attitude. I need meds.

[StoopTroup]

We need to tear some arms off!

[JLEW1818]

they are getting all the breaks.

[Rogue]

Why don't we attack the offensive boards? :mad:

[XFollower]

Is Tyler H. old enough to play college ball? He looks 12, much like Colty.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Is there anything else on?

[StoopTroup]

Sorry bout my glass half empty attitude. I need meds.
Halftime adjustment...lol

[JLEW1818]

stupid basketball.. stupid

[Eielson]

It's just the first half...chin up.

Ahh! YEAH! I'M REJUVENATED!

[JLEW1818]

is it me or do a lot of their saving balls, look like they stepped out. ?

[Curly Bill]

NC guards > OU guards



:(

[meoveryouxinfinity]

this is a complete 180 from the Syracuse game.

[StoopTroup]

Nice call on the hack on Blake!

[PhiDeltBeers]

Wow, anyone have any zoloft?

[Rogue]

This is a terrible effort so far.

[JLEW1818]

Did you see how smart Lawson was right there? To foul Blake. he has a bright future.

[Rogue]

At least they'll be in foul trouble soon.

[meoveryouxinfinity]

Blake needs to TAKE HIS SHOT!!!!!!

he does not look like Blake Griffin

[StoopTroup]

Another foul!

YES!

[Eielson]

Did you see how smart Lawson was right there? To foul Blake. he has a bright future.

No big deal. Johnny Flynn did the same thing. ;)

[JLEW1818]

**** beer, it's OVJ time....

[StoopTroup]

WTG BLAKE...keep sinking those fTs!

[yermom]

keep fouling Tarheels

[StoopTroup]

AIRBALL ! ! !

[JLEW1818]

No big deal. Johnny Flynn did the same thing. ;)

lol, but ya flynn took a block, Lawson hit his arm.. and didn't get hurt.

[oumartin]

If we can somehow cut this to 8 or 6 at the half I won't feel like I need to hang myself

[PhiDeltBeers]

We need to score on every possession and not let them score on theirs. That's my key to winning the game.

[JLEW1818]

these fouls just might catch up with the Heels

[King Crimson]

enough commercial breaks?

[StoopTroup]

**** beer, it's OVJ time....

Now yer talking ! ! !

SPEK!

[JLEW1818]

seriously

[Curly Bill]

Yup, if we're within 10 at the half we have a shot.

[Eielson]

Danny Green scored 12, and that is who Cade was guarding. Statistically, that actually looks like the only real difference. Most of that happened because Crocker wasn't in. It sure doesn't look close at all, though, even without Green.

[ousooners182]

man lets go sooners...

no more second chance points or turnovers...


and we have to hit a 3

[JLEW1818]

Now yer talking ! ! !

SPEK!

lol, he would like that.. :)

[Rogue]

Yup, if we're within 10 at the half we have a shot.

:gary:

[OUAlumni1990]

We're loosing up, finding our rhythm. Meanwhile NC shot some wild air balls. wow. I hope this trend continues. BOOMER SOONER!!!!!

[Rogue]

Patillo isn't following the game plan.
He got an offensive rebound.

[JLEW1818]

again he looked out of bounds when he threw it in.

[StoopTroup]

keep fouling Tarheels

No kidding...if we have to wear down their fists with OUr face...we will! :D

[Sooner98]

0 for 9. One more, and we will match Syracuse's first half effort!

[JLEW1818]

keep fouling heels

[Eielson]

Lowers his shoulder, travels...scores.

[StoopTroup]

0 for 9. One more, and we will match Syracuse's first half effort!

Dude...Syracuse isn't playing.

Man UP!

[PhiDeltBeers]

maybe all their players will foul out....might give us some hope.

[JLEW1818]

i boned 3 of those cheerleaders...

[GrapevineSooner]

Uggh,

Between this game and my users calling me and not listening to my directions.

People, when you call a help desk and the tech takes the time to walk you though something...Follow their directions...For the love of God.

[yermom]

*sigh*

missing FTs now too?

we are going to have to start making 3's

[meoveryouxinfinity]

this is too painful to watch. I have watched this team all season and only once have I turned off a game, Arkansas.

[StoopTroup]

BLAKE ! ! !

[Rogue]

BG looks like he's ready to take over.

[JLEW1818]

good foul.

[oumartin]

they are just outhustling us all over the floor

[PhiDeltBeers]

Wish we could atleast hit some free shots.

[Sooner98]

Juan, WTF?

[Rogue]

I get it. We plan to NOT rebound so they can fight over them and wear themselves out.

[JLEW1818]

we just need to ****ing drive to the basket and see what happens.

[GrapevineSooner]

You'll never get a better look than that inside.

[StoopTroup]

About time they start calling the reach ins.

[JLEW1818]

more turnovers than field goals ..... lol

[Eielson]

This would be nice to on pace for more than 40 points.

[PhiDeltBeers]

What are we...3-30 from the line?

[yukonmiller]

How can Juan not make a 2 ftr. Refs aren't ruining this game the team in crimson is.

[JLEW1818]

would you take a loss right now, if it was guaranteed Blake would come back?

haha

that is what my buddy sent me

[Sooner98]

Dude...Syracuse isn't playing.

Man UP!

Um, how will my "manning up" affect the outcome of the game?

[Rogue]

Nice shot BG

[Bosley]

How was that not "and one!" ?

[PhiDeltBeers]

What move by Blake!

[Eielson]

Woo! Nice play Patillo (I think)! Kick the ball away so they can't inbound it!

[StoopTroup]

Nice Play!

GO SOONERS ! ! !

[JLEW1818]

down 9.... hopefully we get a space jam speech

[Bosley]

At least our dance team looks good right now.

[King Crimson]

don't foul in these 2.7 secs.

[Eielson]

What are we...3-30 from the line?

7-11

[instigator]

Is AJ's back really bad today? He is passing up some good looks.

[StoopTroup]

It ain't over till it's over.

[Eielson]

I certainly can't wait for Tommy Mason-Griffin.

[OUHOMER]

Is AJ's back really bad today? He is passing up some good looks.

I saw several of them giving up good looks. They cannt keep doing that

[Sooner98]

Well, nine points is definitely still workable. We're lucky it isn't much more than that, as poorly as we've played. Even hitting 22% from 3, would have made it a 3-point game.

[yukonmiller]

If we can't throw it in the ocean then drive it down their throats EVERY freaking time.

[StoopTroup]

12 personal fouls on them to our 7.

[oumartin]

yes, but those 12 are spread out over 20 players!

That faggot wearing 50 for them has 2, lawson has 1. Green has 1.. Those are the ones that concern me

[OUAlumni1990]

We haven't even been hitting our free throws. That could make the difference in the game right there..

There is still hope

[instigator]

Just hit a few shots and we are right there. It's frustrating to see them passing up good shots and picking up the dribble too soon. They really looked nervous and we're only down 9. If we can settle down, we can do this.

[Curly Bill]

If we can't throw it in the ocean then drive it down their throats EVERY freaking time.

Problem is we have exactly one guard who is capable of this and it's WW.

[StoopTroup]

We need to shut down Danny Green.

[Al Gore]

I saw several of them giving up good looks. They cannt keep doing that
gun shy

[instigator]

I saw several of them giving up good looks. They cannt keep doing that

Exactly. I loved passing up good looks and then having to heave it up at the shot clock buzzer. :confused:

[StoopTroup]

Just hit a few shots and we are right there. It's frustrating to see them passing up good shots and picking up the dribble too soon. They really looked nervous and we're only down 9. If we can settle down, we can do this.

Good Post!

[Curly Bill]

Did Austin Johnson make the bus ride over to the arena?

[Eielson]

yes, but those 12 are spread out over 20 players!

That faggot wearing 50 for them has 2, lawson has 1. Green has 1.. Those are the ones that concern me

Green, Lawson, and Faggot all have 2 fouls according to ESPN. Their fouls add up to 13, though, so somebody probably was given an extra one.

[E-Town]

Second half Sooner Magic.....boomer sooner

[soonerfan28]

I just got on here and I'm not gonna read 200 posts to get caught up, so I'll just say that I'm impressed with the fact that Griffin hasn't really been a major factor and we're still in this game.

[StoopTroup]

Second half Sooner Magic.....boomer sooner

YEAH BABY ! ! !

BOOMER SOONER ! ! !

[Eielson]

I saw several of them giving up good looks. They cannt keep doing that

0-9 on threes, 8-13 on twos. Those open threes haven't been good lucks I guess.

[Sooner98]

I just got on here and I'm not gonna read 200 posts to get caught up, so I'll just say that I'm impressed with the fact that Griffin hasn't really been a major factor and we're still in this game.

Blake has 11 points and 9 rebounds. He's been our ONLY factor so far.

[oumartin]

Blake has half our points.. so he has been a factor.

[StoopTroup]

I just got on here and I'm not gonna read 200 posts to get caught up, so I'll just say that I'm impressed with the fact that Griffin hasn't really been a major factor and we're still in this game.

I knew someone was missing. We're blaming you for the nine points. Now...give us 10 Boomer Sooners and your off the hook.

[Eielson]

Comparison time!

Blake- 11 points, 9 rebounds
Hansbrough- 4 points, 1 rebound

[StoopTroup]

Blake has half our points.. so he has been a factor.

Yep....this game is between two guys up to this point.

[E-Town]

Blake will "posterize" Tyler before the evening is done......boomer sooner

[soonerfan28]

Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner! Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!
Is that OK?

[JLEW1818]

just think if we made half of our 3's

[oumartin]

if warren doesn't have any fouls I wanna see him go all out in the second half. same with blake and taylor. Don't leave any fouls on the floor. If you want this you gotta be aggressive

[meoveryouxinfinity]

Did Austin Johnson make the bus ride over to the arena?

LOL he will NOT take that shot. he thinks about it for a second but is too scared.

[StoopTroup]

Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner! Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!Boomer Sooner!
Is that OK?

SPEK!

lol

[PhiDeltBeers]

I hope Capel got into them and told them they're a lot better than they've shown.

[soonerfan28]

I didn't mean that he hasn't been a factor. I think he has just missed more shots then he has in this tournament and that we're still in this thing. He'll bring his % up in the second half and we'll pull out the win.

[OU_Sooners75]

Time for Warren to take the game over and do what he does best. That is drive to the hoop to either finish or dish it out.

UNC is playing to double team Blake...I think it is time for soem pick and rolls too!

[StoopTroup]

Taylor Griffin got a few looks that I thought he shoulda taken.

[Eielson]

On the bright side, we've been a better second half team all year. We haven't played anybody as good as UNC, though.

[snp]

Griffin has also drawn 8 fouls. Too bad UNC is so deep.

[JLEW1818]

2nd half starting

[PhiDeltBeers]

hmmmm

[StoopTroup]

On the bright side, we've been a better second half team all year. We haven't played anybody as good as UNC, though.

They are deep on the bench but not unbeatable. We can take em IMO.

[JLEW1818]

good pass CROCKER

[instigator]

Nice board by Blake.

[PhiDeltBeers]

Nice pass by Crocker.

[Eielson]

Aww yeah! Nice play call Capel! Blake came wide open under the basket!

[StoopTroup]

CROCKER ! ! !

[PhiDeltBeers]

Crocker!

[JLEW1818]

I'm about to start playing drinking games, with our 3 point shooting...

[instigator]

Where would we be without Blake??

[E-Town]

It's going to be nice ordering my special addition Sports Illustrated with the Sooners on the cover "Nationl Champions"....oh yeah it will come with the special Sooner DVD showing how the second half magic of the Sooners beating NC.

[PhiDeltBeers]

We just can't stop'em.

[Rogue]

AJ

[instigator]

If I have to watch them hit another layup, I'm gonna puke.

[JLEW1818]

TRAVEL

[Rogue]

AJ :mad:

[meoveryouxinfinity]

They're calling some WEAK fouls

[Bosley]

Nice pass friend.

[oumartin]

we had a great chance to cut into the lead and AJ sticks his head up his butt on an entry pass

[PhiDeltBeers]

Our guards have GOT to start playing!

[PhiDeltBeers]

Now defense!

[AllAboutThe'O']

We just can't seem to make a stop.

[JLEW1818]

I knew that was going in... just a bad feeling when they shoot

[oumartin]

not a single three pointer made and they are hitting it

[PhiDeltBeers]

Unbelieve!

[instigator]

Good Lord BG!!

Then we give it right back!! Ugh.
