The game is also allegedly on the "Big 12 Network," so check some of the local channels as well. Here in Tulsa, that usually means either 3, 7 or 10.

This is a big test for this young team. We have been playing better since the Baylor debacle so you never know but I say A&M wins by 8-10.

I'm appropriately nervous about this game. Capel's been in such an improved mood this past week, it's a really bad time for a road trip to come along and f*ck all that up.

any sporting event against UT for A&M is their super bowl...it's sad really. i wouldn't take that near win into consideration, however, i do think we unfortunately lose tonight.

Done this many times when I was in school. I had thought maybe that the guy behind me would rat me out (he seemed like one of those "go getters") but he mumbled to me the score of another college basketball game while i was watching us in the big 12 tourney last season. You will be just fine :)

I was thinking the other day that this is perfect timing for us. They're coming off an emotional OT loss and it's only a 3 day turnaround. As always the other important factor is rather Team Jeckyll or Team Hyde shows up for us.

We might have the best chance of any team in history of going 8-0 in conference at home and 0-8 on the road. That is of course unless somebody has already done it. In that case, I would change my mind.

All our opponents seemed to be shooting lights out against us, then we went home for two games and Missouri and OSU couldn't hit anything. Back on the road and TAMU is shooting over 60%. I'm actually starting to buy my messed up goals theory.

not the loss, just the 2nd to last possession, i think.

why not ****ing design a play??? maybe i missed something.... if we don't have a play worth a damn to design... I'm okay with that .

but why???

we are not a ****ing nba team who can just drive and make a easy jumper

TMG was the only reason we stayed in this game for so long...he gets none of the blame. if we weren't in foul trouble the entire game, this would have turned out much differently. this was a different OU team with tiny and willie scoring points, and more importantly, on the floor. not having senior leadership with crocker out for bunches hurt us too.

This team is finally showing signs of being a team the last couple of games. Yes I'm kinda pissed we lost but if we are down 10 at the half a couple weeks ago we just fold and lose by 20. We fought all the way through tonight and should have come out with a win.

yes, let me not forget about cade. dude doesn't have the best skills in the world, but he out-hustles just about anyone for both teams. i really like the way he plays. now if he could get more of his mortar 3 pointers to fall, then he could really be an offensive weapon (even though he was pretty good from behind the arc tonight)...

i agree. this was a tough one to swallow, so it'll be interesting to see how this team responds. but, they're definitely coming together as a whole.

Just a couple of points, don't know if anyone agrees or cares - I'm really starting to love TMG. Kid is quick and jumps so high, he can get shots off. Best thing about him, probably too short for NBA so we could have him 4 years, and no showboating when he makes plays. Willie played pretty good in the second half, but every time he does something good, he has to let everyone know about it, TMG turns around and goes to play D!! Also, that fifth foul on Crocker was terrible and I think cost us the game, because we put Pledger in, who is becoming worthless. All he wants to do is shoot 3s, which he doesn't make anymore, and he doesn't rebound or play D. On the 3 they hit to take the lead, Pledger came way over off his man to show a double team on Davis, and he gave up a wide open 3. So Crocker fouling out killed us, he was playing smarter in the second half as well. Anyway, I was happy to see us play better in the second half, and if Tiny can stay out of foul trouble he will get better and better and so will TMG, maybe we are starting to become a team.
P.S. - I thought the 5 second call was bad, I thought he got far enough away from the guy.

If TMG keeps his head on straight he has the chance to reach Hollis status before he leaves.

and I agree that Tech and ISU are very important. We have to go 2-1 or better yet 3-0 against Tech, NU, and CU to have a chance to make the tourney.

Well, he is having a much better season than Hollis did as a true freshman. But, then again, TMG is being asked to do much more than Hollis was in 2000.

Guys we are gonna have to face it, barring a cpl of upsets we are an NIT team this year. It is what it is...The key is that we are getting better and the team is finally figuring it out, that is honestly a big step cus with all of the talent we have we will be good again.

I would say we would have to go 5-2 in our next 7 to even have a shot at an ncaa bid and that includes 4 games on the road I believe. The good thing is we have games against TT(2), Neb, Colorado, osu, and Neb so 5-2 isnt impossible, just unlikely

It's because it was pretty clear that he wasn't playing hard or smart. He was celebrating after every basket. He was playing defense. Heck, he had a few games where we were 4v6 from his play.

Collier11
1/20/2010, 02:08 AM
The talent is there, as Capel has stated several times that Willie is really struggling with how to be a leader and how to play hard all the time. It certainly isnt because he doesnt care, he just needs to focus more and let the game come to him

4v6 isnt possible, lol. I think that is something that Capel has addressed, he doesnt see it as WW is hotdogging but that he is trying to get his teammates fired up. We can all take it how we want to take it but the negativity towards him is BS.

I think WW has been playing better lately also, he still takes some really bad shots sometimes, I just am tired of the hotdogging after every good play he makes. We need him to keep playing better though which he has been. I also think we'll probably make the NIT this year, but we look like we are getting better and that's fine with me so we can look forward to next year. But trust me, I'm not giving up on this year, I still wanna throw stuff at the TV sometimes, and my wife just doesn't get it-how excited I get. I keep telling her, after knowing me for 11 years now, she would get used to it. Especially since on our first date in 1998, the Sooners were playing Tulsa in football, we were terrible, but I had to finish listening to the game on my car radio before I went into this party we were going to. And living up here in KC, the reception didn't come in very well, it was mostly static with every once in a while being able to hear a play. She couldn't believe I was listening to it, plus the Sooners were pretty horrible that year - Blake's last, but we kicked a late FG to win it, so all was good, and I had to tell her she would have put up with that if we were gonna be together, but I guess she's still not used to it!

because he's a physical freak...if he wasn't taking bad shots, turning the ball over so much, and playing inconsistent defense, there would be no doubt.

willie pisses me off when i watch him play sometimes, but i found myself praying that we'd find a way to score whenever he would go to the bench last night. he can be frustrating to watch, but he can be an instant-offense guy and a game changer. honestly, without him we are not the same team offensively. whether that's because he's on fire or because he's drawing so much attention from the defense, he's needed out there.

When he's passing to guys wearing green and gold like he was in Waco, he becomes the other team's 6th man. He stops playing for us too.
