2013 Coaches vs Cancer Classic

[8timechamps]

If we beat Seton Hall tonight, and Michigan State beats Virginia Tech (and they should), we would face the #1 team in the country tomorrow. Change to see where we are as a program.

[8timechamps]

9-6 Sooners.

Ryan Spangler is playing lights out! 3 blocked shots in the first 5 minutes!

[8timechamps]

20-17 Sooners, 11:00 left in the 1st half.

[8timechamps]

Isaiah Cousins shooting very well this half (4-4, with 2 - 3 pointers)

OU 27
Seton Hall 19

[8timechamps]

OU 44
Seton Hall 41

Halftime

Seton Hall can't miss from 3. Sooners had a pretty good lead, but SH started nailing 3 pointers. They're 7 of 13 from behind the arc, the Sooners are 5 of 12.

Good game!

[8timechamps]

Ugh, 58-50 Seton Hall.

13:30 left in the game.

Sooners just not getting in a flow offensively this half. Officiating isn't the best either.

[8timechamps]

67-63 Seton Hall, 8:13 left to play.

Sooners making a run to get back in this. SH cooled off from 3, currently 8 of 22.

[8timechamps]

84-79 Pirates. 0:48 to go.

Looks like we won't be facing Michigan State unless they lose to VaTech.

[Ruf/Nek7]

Dang man, officials are all over these boys, both teams. LET EM PLAY A LITTLE!

[cccasooner2]

Holy cow.

[8timechamps]

HOLY ****!

TIED BALLGAME. 9.6 seconds left, OU has the second foul shot coming up. Can take the lead.

[8timechamps]

UNBELIEVABLE!

What a comeback.

[8timechamps]

Sooner win 86-85

[MojoRisen]

SOOOONER FREAKIN MAGIC!!!!!!

[Sooner95]

great comeback. Bring on MSU.

[lexsooner]

Wowsa. I saw the score with .31 left and I wrote them off, but then I saw they won! I take it this is another scrappy, well-coached Lon Kruger team.

[hawaii 5-0]

I set the recorder to catch the next 30 minutes after the game and still missed the ending by 2 minutes.

Glad the Sooners won.

A few notes.......way too many turnovers. Spangler has to learn to hit free throws.

5-0

no doubt...hate to say it but I thought when OU got down by 12...I just figured OU would get close..but not over the hump. IT never fails..when the announcers start praising some FT shooter's streak...except I kept waiting...and waiting...and waiting..then FINALLY he missed. We missed some key FT's in the last 5 min.

But the last 31 seconds..wow. Yes tomorrow will be a huge test. Not real hopeful for a W but we've got 2 wins that I thought would be L in the non-conf. Playing well right now.

[hawaii 5-0]

State's big man, Payne made four 3 pointers. He's a beast.

State also didn't make many foolish mistakes. Isso has 'em coached up.

5-0

[Soonerjeepman]

it'll be a tough test. I hate to "throw the towel in" and who knows...I do think msu can run as well as us so that is not an advantage. Yeah, I really like Isso. Looks like he is letting them run more than I've seen in the past.

[Bourbon St Sooner]

We're going to need better than 3 of 12 from Buddy to hang in this game tonight.

[hawaii 5-0]

Just playing at State's level of competitiveness has to help the Sooners down the road.

Coming back against Seton Hall like they did was a great character builder.

I just love their up-tempo style, their unselfishness and their ability to have more than one person that can penetrate and create possibilities.

5-0

[SoonerorLater]

Yes it will be more than tough for OU tonight. MSU looks in every way deserving of their rating. Still early but if MSU doesn't run to a championship it sure won't be because of lack of talent or effort. I would like to see OU just play a tough game and for gosh sakes ,,,,hit their free throws

[Soonerjeepman]

Hopefully I'll hit the tri-fecta tonight...

F ball win
B ball win
favors from the GF~

[Eielson]

It's probably too much to ask, but does anybody have a link to the game?

OU is up 20-11 against the #1 team in the country halfway through the first half.

[Eielson]

MSU showing why they're #1. 32-29 them

[Blue]

41-31 msu.

Too many whistles again. And I can't stand watching Tyler Neal try to play basketball. he sucks.

[Sooner95]

Well, we are giving it our all, but MSU is a level above us.

Looking to keep it respectable. Good learning experience for our team.

[Sooner95]

We are battling, down by 11 with 14min to go..

[Blue]

Team showing a lot of heart. Down 4. Just don't put Neal in.

[Blue]

Were down 18 early in the 2nd half.

[Sooner95]

Be smart, limit the turnovers and create open looks and we can stay in this...

[Sooner95]

Couple of tough possessions there...

[Sooner95]

Down by 8, 5 to go..

[Sooner95]

73-66 MSU 4:22 to go..

[Sooner95]

Big Ft's here..

[Sooner95]

Appling is to good...

[Sooner95]

Nice play Clark, chance to cut it to 5..

[Blue]

Very nice showing against #1. Fun team.

[Sooner95]

Well, 83-76 under a min... Tough one, but heck of an effort!

[Eielson]

Great heart. Just couldn't recover from the horrible finish to the half. I wasn't sure if our bigs were gonna be good enough for an NCAA tournament appearance coming in, so I'll take a close game against the #1 team in the country.

[Sooner95]

87-76 we fall to #1. I;m not going to complain. Great effort.

[OUmillenium]

Great competitive game. Fun to watch the hot start and Cam filling it up. FTs need to fall and we are right there. Some subs really killed us late in first half.

[Soonerjeepman]

overall not a bad effort. Cam was on fire early. The intentional foul was total bull#hit...actually should have been a reach in foul on them..not that it would have changed the outcome.

Think we'll turn some heads in the big 12. Like the effort of the team

[SoonerorLater]

This was a good effort against a very tough team. If Kruger can keep these guys focused we should have a decent year.

[King Crimson]

that soonersports neulion highlight package of the seton hall W is horrible.

overall, gotta like the C for C result.

Kruger is worth the money we payin him so far. like this team.

[Eielson]

I don't think we'll be competing with OSU or Kansas, but our guards might carry us to an early NCAA Tournament exit. I would've loved to have had another year with Osby.

[Bourbon St Sooner]

Cam's finally become the player I though he would become when he was a Freshman. Too bad M'Baye didn't come back. His defensive presence in the paint would have been nice against the MSU point guard. Look forward to getting some big men in next year. Kruger is definitely building something here.
