OU vs TxTech, the sand aggies!

[I Am Right]

Well, which team will show up? The one that beat Texas and osu or the one that lost to Baylor!

[I Am Right]

Is this game on TV?

[Boomer.....]

Yes. Cox channel 11 in OKC.

[Sooner95]

Haven't had any luck finding it online...

[Boomer.....]

Not playing horrible but the shots are just not falling in the first half for us. Semi-poor defense and we are giving up offensive boards.

36 - 28 Tech at half.

[Boomer.....]

We are much better than this and should come out fired up in the second half. Looks like a great crowd on BG night.

[Boomer.....]

Here is the poster that OU is giving out tonight:

[badger]

Very nice B-Griff poster. Capel just got a T to fire up his players :)

If you are irritated with the game, I have a Where's Waldo challenge for you - go to the ESPN.com main page and find the QB that OU made their beyonce for the two most recent Big 12 championships in football :)

[Sooner95]

[JLEW1818]

what does it take to qualify for the NIT

[sooner518]

ugh i hate Tech and that bastage Singletary. cant believe we lost to these chumps

[Boomer.....]

Those 2 free throws because of Capel's T came back to haunt us.

[Soonerfan88]

$*!% Doesn't sound like the 3's were falling all night. As I wasn't watching, don't know the situation but wish they could have driven inside instead of throwing the 3 there.

But at least they showed some rally spirit, I guess. Trying to find something positive here. (sigh)

[kc sooner]

I hate Tech also and I can't stand the Knights, and how is their RPI in the thirties, they are weak!!

[JLEW1818]

i really would love to kick that Tech center in the knee. darco or w/e the hell he is

how do we lose to that tool? err

[jdsooner]

PATHETIC loss to a PATHETIC team for a PATHETIC season.

[ndpruitt03]

I'm proud of how hard this team played at the end. We just couldn't make the open shots. Defense was really good the last few minutes.

Exactly.

[jdsooner]

No thanks, don't think I will. It was a pathetic loss and Texas Tech is horrible. I'm not saying we should win the Big 12, but this team has enough talent to do so much better.

[Boomer.....]

That's obvious. We can beat Mizzou and Uterus but not Tech or Nebbish? It doesn't need to be said though. This team played hard in the second half. We only played 7 people tonight and the two suspensions might have cost us the game.

[Ardmore_Sooner]

That was one of the worst officiated games I've ever attended in person.

[jdsooner]

Yes and the suspensions speak to some of the problems with this team. After winning a big game over Texas, how do you go out shoplifting at Dillard's. When the players on this team care, they play well. Half the time we look like we don't care.


The Red Raiders came in 3-5 in the Big 12 Conference, and having lost their four league road games by an average of 21 points. They were the aggressors Tuesday, however, seizing a 25-23 lead on D’walyn Roberts’ stuff with 7:05 remaining in the first half and not giving it up the rest of the game.

That was mostly thanks to point guard John Roberson, who undressed Tommy Mason-Griffin for 22 points, and posts Darko Cohadarevic and Robert Lewandowski, whose combined 17 points exceeded their season average of 9.

[Ardmore_Sooner]

Cohadarevic shouldve fouled out with about 12 minutes to go in the game. That guy was playing dirty all night long.

[richsooner]

Turns out Capel might be as stupid as he looks to be. he won't or can't do what is necessary to turn this bunch around. He has a cancer that he can not coach, he needs to bench, or better yet dump, the cancer and this might just become a team...........

[Collier11]

You sir are dumb ^

[Collier11]

I had to leave with 10 minutes left to go play in a church league game, can someone please tell me why two 3 pointers are the best shots we got when only down 1 at the end?

[kc sooner]

TMG was driving at the end, had his man beat and the guy kind of pushed him a little as he was driving, could have been a foul, and he kicked it out to Willie for a great look, just missed it. Then we had a hard time getting the ball in with 2.5 seconds left, and had to throw it out to TMG for a decent shot.

[sooner518]

the first was not a bad shot. TMG drove into the lane and kicked out to a wide-open WW. He just missed. Dont know why TMG shot a 3 to end the game. I would have liked to see WW or Crocker drive into the lane. 2.5 seconds should be plenty of time to do that.....

[Sooner04]

I only got to see bits and pieces of the game but Willie missed a wide-open three with about four seconds left. Wide open.

We got the ball out of bounds with 2.5 to go and Tech did a great job defending the play. Our play wasn't much, I thought we should've called another time out, but they didn't lose anybody. TMG's three was contested. Would've liked to see Gallon seal his guy and go up strong, but for some reason he ran away from the basket to the elbow.

We played poorly for a really long stretch and turned it on a bit too late. Still can't believe that dunk by Crocker didn't drop.

This is a really bad loss, one I can lay right at the feet of two dumbassed freshmen with sticky fingers.

[ndpruitt03]

We missed 4 3s in the last 2 minutes or so. All but one were wide open.

[yankee]

just thought i'd let everyone know that just because the 3 was wide open, doesn't mean it's automatic in...as evidenced by tonight. it's always going to be a low percentage shot, so don't get PO'ed at ww for missing it.

[bri]

This is a really bad loss, one I can lay right at the feet of two dumbassed freshmen with sticky fingers.

Awkward moment of the night was when we played the "pump up" video on SoonerVision as we were breaking the huddle for the last play and we realized too late that Pledger is the guy holding the "NOISE" sign. Heh.

[GKeeper316]

we really need a big man to sit down by the paint with tiny.

cant play guard only teams in this league.

Gallon played well tonight. Better than he has most of the last month or so.

[Boomer.....]

Tiny definitely played one of his best games of the season last night. We needed him to step up and he did. A couple of monster dunks and a nice soft touch.

[...sooner]

tiny did great. shows that he CAN be a factor if he actually moves when he has the ball. i wanna slap fitz & pledger. coulda used them for sure last night. frustrating loss cause we needed it.. win the rest at home & a couple road wins MIGHT have made us a bubble team. MAYBE. but NIT here we come. oh and i heard cade had bronchitis--kid gives it his all!

[Boomer.....]

I hope we can even make the NIT. :O

[...sooner]

I hope we can even make the NIT. :O

true guess i shouldnt get so excited huh?

[Rock Hard Corn Frog]

Does anyone else see the irony in losing to the Red Raiders largely because of theft?

Not sure if this loss was a punch in the nuts or an open handed slap in the nuts but either way this one has me doubled over.

Capel should take Alexander and Pledger and have them watch the game film 2-3 times. Maybe they will get the message.

Hopefully we can get everyone on the same page and at least put together a good run in the NIT and bounce back next year.

Can't spell "Shoplifting" without N-I-T :(

Fixed.

[NormanPride]

Tiny's offense was nice, but his defense was so horrible it was hardly a plus. I don't know why he wasn't taken out in favor of Wright at some point, especially since Wright was getting offensive boards AND playing defense. :(

[badger]

For those of you that missed the game, the entirety of the loss cannot be blamed solely on Dillards. Rather, allow me to explain (with photos) what exactly happened most of the second half, every time OU cut it closer...

I'm not confident about the NIT right now.

Tiny did do a great job and actually played like a post player for the first time in over a month. He needs to play like that more. If he played like that we aren't having the trouble we have right now.

[cjames317]

the first was not a bad shot. TMG drove into the lane and kicked out to a wide-open WW. He just missed....

Uh, isn't WW OUr least effective 3-point shooter?

[badger]

btw, op.com is plotting how to welcome our team this weekend and they claim to have 1,000 Dillard's bags for students to wear (check page 3) (http://www.orangepower.com/showthread.php?t=88675).

[bri]

Clever.

They still lost last time.

[Boomer.....]

Bedlam is always a battle and even though we play horrible on the road, I still think it will be a close game.

[Eielson]

Of course.

Wow...

No I blame Alexander........Fitzgerald is blameless....:D

WTF.....not sure what I was thinking when I typed that. Must have been the slap in the nuts.
