Newbomb Turk

You barely touch a guy sometimes and they blow the whistle.

But a guy gets a rebound and you can reach in and grab for the ball all you want???

it hit the ****ing top of the backboard and Neal gets called for a foul. not only do we not get the ball, they get free throws.

Looks like that goal is the 3-point goal. Neal couldn't miss in the 1st half, the Buffs can't miss in the 2nd.

I'm not so sure Colorado fans aren't mentally handicapped.

Starting an 'overrated' chant when we're 19 and they're 28? Sure, CU's lower ranked, but it isn't like they're on a different level than us. It's not necessarily an upset.

Easily the most disappointing loss in Big 12 play this year...we stunk on defense and couldn't/didn't board.
Fortunately, I don't think those are problems likely to creep up often. We can only afford one more loss (likely at Texas).

And then this team has the NERVE to wonder why no one will show up for their games!! Face it friends we were ALL sold a bill of goods on what is nothing more than an average basketball team. We'll be lucky to make it past the second round and maybe even the first. Don't be shocked when one of these happens friends.

I don't know if they are an average basketball team, they're better than that. Underachievers??? Now there you might have a claim. That being said, I believe that I will once again be disinterested in the NCAA tournament come the second weekend. Again. Happened all but 3 of the last 11 years.

My .02,

* The worst free-throw shooting team in the Big 12 only missed two from the charity stripe all night.

* Michael Neal was on fire from three point land...

In the first half.

Second half, we couldn't hit anything from outside.

* CU finally started hitting the trey

* We got hammered on the boards inside and in the paint. Not coincidentally (and not to knock the kid but just to state the facts), we got virtually nothing from Kevin Bookout.

Add it all up and it's a bit of a minor miracle we even lost by just single digits.

Just one of those nights. And you sure as hell can't blame it on coaching.

I'll agree with that.
Also, I think some are making too big a deal about the "blown lead" in this game. OU was up by eight twice in the first half. This was hardly the Buffalo Bills beating the Houston Oilers.

It's times like these I'm glad for the relative isolation of the lab. It boggles my mind how many different ways we've found to lose to teams this year we shouldn't, given the number of seniors we have. Next year's gonna suck.

This was a disappointing loss no doubt but Colorado did shoot lights out down the stretch. I still think this pales in the disappointing loss department to losing to Missouri at home. I'm willing to cut him a lot of slack because he is playing with a broken arm but Bookout had the worst game that I've seen him play as a Sooner. He missed a lot of cripples and was having a hard time getting down the court. Taj Gray wasn't stellar either. He had a decent night on offense but gave up 2-3 easy baskets on D. As a team we lost a lot of 50/50 rebounds that we usually get. Not having some minutes from Austin Johnson hurt too.

Also I second Grapevines observation that Colo as a team had a career night on the foul line.

Other then the one Colo player going Stan Van Gundy on Bookout and not getting an intentional foul I thought the game was called pretty decent. That was far and away the best Colo has played all year.

As for the season I think this hurts our NCAA seeding but I didn't think that Texas or KU were going to lose enough for us to finish 1st or 2nd. We still have a good shot at 3rd though we probably need to win 4 of our last 5 to do it.


Now lets go kick ISU's azz.

I went to the game last night and i can tell you we got absolutly no calls. home court cooking for sure. Then the always classy CU fans didnt say a word until the last 5 minutes if the game, and then all of a sudden they want to start talking smack to every sooner fan in the house. can we say bandwagon. then to top it all off we were getting snow balls thrown at us after the game as walked to our car. TOTAL CLASS way to reporesent your fine university well.

Colorado shot the lights out because they shot layups the entire first half and were wide open the entire second half. A career night by Michael Neal was wasted because:

1. Poor rebounding (lack of effort);
2. Horrendous defensive play (half coaching/scouting, half effort);
3. Outmanned. Yes, we were outmanned by Colorado. Bookout was a nonfactor on both ends and nobody could cover Roby. Taj played solid defense until the bad foul calls caught up with him.

Bottom line, a Sampson-coached team cannot give up 80 points and expect to win. We should have been up by 15 at half with Michael Neal's play but horrid defense (too many layups) kept that from happening.
