[Jimminy Crimson]

BOOMER SOONER & TEXAS SUCKS!

Hope they have good food.:)

[TopDaugIn2000]

Yup, so I'm wacked out on drugs right now!:confused:

[birddog]

I got the rickets. Don't know which is worse.

[Newbomb Turk]

Yup, so I'm wacked out on drugs right now!:confused:

far out man.

[Newbomb Turk]

I got the rickets. Don't know which is worse.

You guys are pitiful.

[birddog]

think we have a chance today?

[Newbomb Turk]

think we have a chance today?

Oh, I think we've got a chance. They'll certainly be tough to beat, being senior day and all. Buy look what Carolina did at Dook last night.

[birddog]

what happened to this kid?

[birddog]

hot chick on the floor.

[birddog]

got a game here now.

[Okieflyer]

I got the rickets. Don't know which is worse.

Good question, maybe someone who's had both could tell us.


You guys are pitiful.

Yes, but we're here!:D

[Ruuuuuufus]

yeah... that was a hard fall and it took a good while to get the game started back again.

Hopefully they cut to our game with the local affiliates.

[birddog]

i think if you have piles you are worse off.

[IronSooner]

What game are you all getting? We've got Bradley and the Salukis going here...looks like SIU is gonna pull it out.

[Newbomb Turk]

Good move CBS.

[Okieflyer]

I just hope it's a good game!

[birddog]

i've got bradley here too. haven't cut away yet.

[Okieflyer]

i think if you have piles you are worse off.

I don't know, but it sounds awful.:O

[Newbomb Turk]

i've got bradley here too. haven't cut away yet.

IT'S ON BABY!

[birddog]

this game is going to take about 20 more minutes. is there a score yet in asstin?

[Okieflyer]

Nice three!

[Newbomb Turk]

Pair of 3's

3-3

[Okieflyer]

Not a nice three!:mad:

[birddog]

i've got an 11 point bulge with 90 secs. left and they won't leave.

[Newbomb Turk]

Now that picture is better.

[IronSooner]

From everett and gibson according to yahoo

[Newbomb Turk]

i've got an 11 point bulge

:eek:

[birddog]

i'm still laughing.

[Newbomb Turk]

6-3 Texas

[IronSooner]

Come on CBS, this game is over, and nobody cares about bradley or southern illinois. Nobody lives in carbondale.

[birddog]

i'm in a good mood. it's in the mid-60's here. got the moto out today for a cruise.

[Newbomb Turk]

Taj with a deuce.

6-5 Texas

[birddog]

they're gonna finish this one up. ridiculous.

[Newbomb Turk]

Good grief - lots of scoring.

10-7 Texas

[yermom]

i love Neal :D

[Okieflyer]

Neal hopefully is hot!

[Newbomb Turk]

12-10 OU

[birddog]

hope we don't get into foul trouble.

[yermom]

Taj finally starting to hit shots, 12-10

12-12 now, stupid Buckman

[Newbomb Turk]

I hate Buckman

12-12

[IronSooner]

Wish I could be watching now

[birddog]

switch already. 13 point game with 20 secs. left

[Newbomb Turk]

12-12 Timeout
14:18

[Okieflyer]

Good so far!

[birddog]

here we go iron.

[IronSooner]

I hate commercials

[birddog]

has aldridge done anything yet. dude scares me.

[oumartin]

Bookout seems outta place in this game. seems to be one step slow.
the game looks good so far though

[Newbomb Turk]

has aldridge done anything yet. dude scares me.

I think he has one bucket.

[IronSooner]

FINALLY!! Time to go crack a Shiner...see you all at half

[birddog]

i can see it now. game on!!

[Okieflyer]

I wish I had HDTV.

[Okieflyer]

THAT SUCKS!:mad:

[birddog]

stupid foul.

[Okieflyer]

What a stupid foul!

[Newbomb Turk]

Carter thinks too much sometimes.

[Okieflyer]

12 - 17 UT
12:55

[TopDaugIn2000]

oh Lord
(Everett's "pass")

[Newbomb Turk]

WTF Terrell?

[Okieflyer]

What was that?

[birddog]

FELLAS!! be smart.

[Newbomb Turk]

Good break there - now we need a bucket.

[Newbomb Turk]

The offense is really clicking now. :mad:

[TopDaugIn2000]

have we TOTALLY forgotten how to make a ****in PASS?!?!?!

[Okieflyer]

Did that hit anything?

[sanantoniosooner]

ENA should be point guard

[birddog]

turned ugly

[Newbomb Turk]

have we TOTALLY forgotten how to make a ****in PASS?!?!?!

It would appear so.

[oumartin]

have we scored since the first timeout?

[MojoRisen]

We need to cleary attack that zone- We look like shiat against it- it isn't that hard spacing and penetration- Let's see if Sampson drew up some plays in the TV time out.

[Newbomb Turk]

have we scored since the first timeout?

I don't think so.

[Okieflyer]

Now make the FT's!

[Okieflyer]

We need a run!

[Okieflyer]

Not gonna happen when you get Offensive fouls.

[Newbomb Turk]

We need a run!

a basket would be nice.

[Ruuuuuufus]

wow did that announcer really just said the other guy "banged him last night"?

[Okieflyer]

That's there plan...take out our best player.

[Al Gore]

make a damn basket

[Newbomb Turk]

AJ - you've got an ugly shot.

[BillyBall]

We are shooting the ball great this afternoon....

[TopDaugIn2000]

ANOTHER throw away by everett. :mad:

[lauderdalesooner]

Looks like we're playing 1st team to 40 wins again today.

[Okieflyer]

Bad pass. Come on Everett!

[Newbomb Turk]

They are moving real well on defense. Us, not so much.

[Al Gore]

nice pass...

[Okieflyer]

AJ - you've got an ugly shot.

You know it almost looks like a curve ball.

[Newbomb Turk]

Think I'll watch golf for a bit. Worked during the aggie game.

[oumartin]

pathetic lineup. 8 minutes and 2 points.
everett was the only scorer on the court.

[TopDaugIn2000]

Think I'll watch golf for a bit. Worked during the aggie game.

I took a shower when we were down by 9, got out and it was tied. I might have to try that again.

[oumartin]

there is some lazy passing going on out there. nothing is crisp. no ball reversal or anything on the offensive end

[TopDaugIn2000]

oh **** that coke float commercial looked gooooooood

[MojoRisen]

our guys are stiffled-

We better just start out hustling and playing loose to hell with it- get the ball up court before they set-

[BillyBall]

We have more turnovers than we do rebounds at this point...

[yermom]

ugh, at least Taj is back in there

but man, this is getting ugly

[josh09]

these announcers are real biased

again

[yermom]

oh **** that coke float commercial looked gooooooood

yeah... it did

[josh09]

we were down by 10 in the last game, werent we?

[oumartin]

get the ball up court before they set
thats yet to happen any this year

[Okieflyer]

They make it so easy to hate Texas.

[TopDaugIn2000]

hell I'd settle for a decent pass folowed by a basket!

[Al Gore]

I took a shower when we were down by 9, got out and it was tied. I might have to try that again.We might go up by 20 if you take a shower with your webcam on.....:D

[josh09]

at least at some point i think we were

[lauderdalesooner]

They are moving real well on defense. Us, not so much.

Yep, I totally agree. There's been alot of complaints about Sampson's style of coaching this year but I think if this team played anywhere near the style of defense that most Sampson teams do, we'd be BIG12 Champs and atleast a #2 seed in the big dance. This team has some problems on offense but the defense is their #1 problem.

[TopDaugIn2000]

We might go up by 20 if you take a shower with your webcam on.....:D

heh riiiiiight :O

[Newbomb Turk]

What was that?

[BillyBall]

Great pass

[Okieflyer]

Way to go Book!

[Newbomb Turk]

On fire now!

[Al Gore]

Alright....4 points in a row!!!!

[TopDaugIn2000]

there we go. now keep it up!

(but don't forget to play defense!)

[Newbomb Turk]

Someone might want to guard Gibson.

[Octavian]

so much for that...

[Newbomb Turk]

Sick move by Carter!

[Okieflyer]

Did we even have a defense on that?

[Ruuuuuufus]

what a play by nate

[josh09]

ugh

[Okieflyer]

10 point ut lead. This sucks.

[yermom]

i'm gonna be sick

[TopDaugIn2000]

ugh.

[Newbomb Turk]

Back to golf.

[Okieflyer]

Think I'll watch golf for a bit. Worked during the aggie game.

I might have to take up watching golf too.

[Newbomb Turk]

Tiger is up 3 - not much drama there either.

[TopDaugIn2000]

I might have to take up watching golf too.

I'd rather watch the rice/tulsa women's C-USA championship

which is what I"m doing.

[oumartin]

When did they teach players to stop passing the ball where the shooter can go straight up with it?

[kc sooner]

Do Taj and Bookout know they can pass it back out when they get it? How come other teams can get their shooters open and it's so hard for Neal to get open?

[TopDaugIn2000]

ANOTHER bad pass
at least he stepped out

[TopDaugIn2000]

****

[Newbomb Turk]

How come other teams can get their shooters open and it's so hard for Neal to get open?

did you watch Carolina on JJ Redick last night?

[Okieflyer]

They're killin' us.

[kc sooner]

Play some D!!

[TopDaugIn2000]

they didn't do much with redick in the first half, but shut him down in the 2nd. hopefully we can do the same.

[yermom]

i think i'm gonna try the shower thing

[Octavian]

why dont we have a zone offense?

[oumartin]

I feel sick. Pathetic on offense

[birddog]

taj taking on 4 dudes again. neal's hanging out waiting for something.

[TripleOption14]

Saw this beat down coming 40 blocks back!!!!! Not surprised.

[TopDaugIn2000]

i think i'm gonna try the shower thing

careful, AG might request a webcam ;)

[oumartin]

why dont we have a zone offense

gee i dont' know.. good question. Have Jay ask Kelvin when he's over polishing his boat

[Newbomb Turk]

i think i'm gonna try the shower thing

Doesn't have the same appeal as when TD2K mentions it.

[Octavian]

we don't have a set zone offense....passing the ball back and forth around the horn looking confused is not an offense

[kc sooner]

[QUOTE=Newbomb Turk]did you watch Carolina on JJ Redick last night?[/QUOT
No, but didn't he get a lot of shots and was just missing? Plus, I know Neal can't really creat like that but he should try to drive a little more.

[FaninAma]

Whatever happened to our front line? I thought it was supposed to be the best in the big 12.

On pace to score 46 points for the game....another spectacular offensive showing by Kelvin's team.

[TopDaugIn2000]

Doesn't have the same appeal as when TD2K mentions it.

heh

[lauderdalesooner]

Well four 1 point wins in a row didn't wake this team up, maybe having their a$$es handed to them by their arch rival will.

[IronSooner]

Can anybody explain clearly why it is that we give up such a high shot % to every team we play.

[Ruuuuuufus]

nm

[FaninAma]

why dont we have a zone offense?

That has been a burning question for Kelvin's entire coaching career at OU. Any opposing coach who runs man to man against a Kelvin Sampson coached team should be automatically canned.

[josh09]

half time adjustments should lead us to our 12 point win that i predicted :D

[Ruuuuuufus]

Sad part is Texas hasn't played very well themselves and we're still down 10.

[BillyBall]

No, there was one point in the game where Redick had like 2 or 3 shots in 30 minutes.

:confused:

A game is 40 minutes

[oumartin]

Can anybody explain clearly why it is that we give up such a high shot % to every team we play

bad defense is my guess

[oumartin]

letting Gibson knock down rainmakers isnt' helping either.
Advice to Kelvin, Deny him the damn ball.

[TopDaugIn2000]

that would be a start

[Newbomb Turk]

letting Gibson knock down rainmakers isnt' helping either.
Advice to Kelvin, Deny him the damn ball.

That's a good place to start.

If you'd tell me before the game that Aldridge would have 2 points at the half, I'd feel pretty good about the game.

[birddog]

texass doesn't suck.

[Newbomb Turk]

texass doesn't suck.

win or lose, they always suck.

[oumartin]

yes, that is a good thing but since when did it get so hard to lock down two players. I'm just so upset about this game for some reason.. Blowing the lead to Kansas didn't bother me as bad as this game is.

[Okieflyer]

I can't believe it's already half time. We're in big trouble.

[TopDaugIn2000]

yes, that is a good thing but since when did it get so hard to lock down two players. I'm just so upset about this game for some reason.. Blowing the lead to Kansas didn't bother me as bad as this game is.

don't think you have to worry about us blowing a lead this game though.......

[oumartin]

there is no lead to blow today guys! :D

[TripleOption14]

Hey in other news... whats the latest on the NFL? Is the deadline still set for 1 hour from now??

[MojoRisen]

We just need to go have fun and run and shoot and hustle on defense-

We look absolutely ****tty trying to run an offense on the Zone- We need to push it and run- Texas 10 fast break points- OU 0 - but I don't want to go against all of Sampsons principles and say the word outlet pass.

[Newbomb Turk]

Hey in other news... whats the latest on the NFL?

They found out that Vince Young is stoopid.

[Okieflyer]

I think I need more medicine. :(

[IronSooner]

We just need to go have fun and run and shoot and hustle on defense-

We look absolutely ****tty trying to run an offense on the Zone- We need to push it and run- Texas 10 fast break points- OU 0 - but I don't want to go against all of Sampsons principles and say the word outlet pass.

We'd probably turn it over more trying to run.

[lauderdalesooner]

I think I need more medicine. :(

Just watch the 2000 Red River Blowout after the game, always makes me feel better.

[TripleOption14]

They found out that Vince Young is stoopid.

Hahahaha :D I'll allow it!!!! :D

[MojoRisen]

I doubt it :)

[oumartin]

so, what do they work on in practice?
isn't any of these
ballhandling-AJ would do nothing but do dribble drills during practice
Zone offense-unless as stated above is just the pass it around until you turn it over or have to force a shot up to be the clock.
Defense-this team has gotten worse over the year at defense.

I think the coaches were too busy on the phone with other recruits

[Okieflyer]

And another thing, why do we always get the horns homers?

[Newbomb Turk]

so, what do they work on in practice?


Shoot at a bucket with a lid on it. Then they're not surprised when they miss during a game.

[NormanPride]

They ran that stupid screen to what's-his-face about 8 times and every time it resulted in an open look. Here's an idea... how about switching? And maybe feed the post every once in awhile? I feel bad for book and Taj just sitting there looking frustrated. :(

[IronSooner]

our rebounding tonight = crap

[TripleOption14]

NO..AJ would do nothing but EAT and lift weights!!

[Okieflyer]

Shoot at a bucket with a lid on it. Then they're not surprised when they miss during a game.

It doesn't work, they still look surprised.

[Octavian]

WTF? they called that on Book?

[Octavian]

oh man...its gonna be a long 2nd half

[NormanPride]

We can't rebound what isn't shot, and we can't rebound what they don't miss! :mad:

[Ruuuuuufus]

another TE turnover

the funny thing is that he threw it right to the Texas player like he was a teammate

[Newbomb Turk]

Tiger is still up 3 at Doral.

[IronSooner]

Was that buckman who just hit that 3? Amazing. We can let *anyone* hit 3's against us.

And turn it over to anyone. We're good at that too.

I need another beer.

[TopDaugIn2000]

nice job everett. throw it away AGAIN, foul, he gets "and 1" now.

[kc sooner]

It is so frustrating wathcing this team run no offense at all. How pathetic.

[NormanPride]

Terrell - Stop driving in halfway and expecting someone to be there when your stupid a$$ doesn't want to finish or shoot the pull up jumper.

[Okieflyer]

39 - 25 ut :mad:
17:48

[oumartin]

well, i'm taking my son to the park. later


tell Jay i said Hi and that Kelvin is a miracle worker and there is no way we could do better at OU.

[Okieflyer]

These guys are playing like crap.

[TopDaugIn2000]

we already have 10 turnovers
texass has 4

[KABOOKIE]

Well. This sucks.

[kc sooner]

When was the last time Godbold actually made a three?

[Newbomb Turk]

well, i'm taking my son to the park. later


tell Jay i said Hi and that Kelvin is a miracle worker and there is no way we could do better at OU.

Have fun at the park - it's just basketball.

[BillyBall]

We have an 8 to 2 lead in tos going at the moment

[TripleOption14]

NFL deadline.... 50 min. and counting.

[NormanPride]

I think all this 1 point karma is catching up with us.

Neal = cold
Terrell = stupid game
Post Players = never see the ball

[MojoRisen]

This is what happens when you turn the ball over en route to 20 against a good team!

We should at least get rough with these boys- I want buckman flopping on the floor. let's GO

[Okieflyer]

Neal is not hot.

[Frozen Sooner]

Augh, Charlie Brown. Augh.

[TopDaugIn2000]

I need a nap

[NormanPride]

Neal is not hot.

That's like saying the French kind of like to surrender.

[IronSooner]

Neal is not hot.

Everett is not hot.

Bookout is not that hot.

Therefore, OU does not score.

The idea of having only 3 designated scorers...not hot.

[Soonerus]

Sooners look like they have several times this year...below average...

[kc sooner]

We play like this we could lose our first game of the big dance.

[BillyBall]

FG% OU - 37% UT - 51%
3P FG% OU - 37% UT - 53%
TOs OU - 8 UT - 2
Rebounds OU - 9 UT - 7

Time - 16:07

[NormanPride]

Everett needs to finish and try to draw the foul. Jack the shot up right into Buckman's jaw, for chrissakes...

[CNC4OU]

have they said anything about taj?

[lauderdalesooner]

We play like this we could lose our first game of the big dance.

We continue to play like this and the osu game will be our last win of the season.

[Soonerus]

OU playing poorly and UT getting all of the calls...

[Ruuuuuufus]

over and back :|

[Newbomb Turk]

We play like this we could lose our first game of the big dance.

absolutely.

[Newbomb Turk]

AJ with the sweet move - not that it matters much.

[NormanPride]

Hey! AJ scored! Doesn't that match his season high? :mad:

[Soonerus]

Texas not that impressive OU just laying down....

[Okieflyer]

That's what I thought we would see from AJ. At the beginning of the year.

[Newbomb Turk]

Oh no - Walker is coming in.

[Okieflyer]

I guess we just aren't going to play defense today.

[Newbomb Turk]

I guess we just aren't going to play defense today.

or offense.

[NormanPride]

Walker's scoring as much as our other guys. At least he hasn't turned it over yet.

[kc sooner]

You're right the d is terrible.

[NormanPride]

Anyone else think Neal is the reason our D is awful? He came in and hit that hot streak, so nobody cared when both teams were scoring more. Now, he's cold as ice and the D is still bad. Hmm?

[Cam]

It's a typical road game for us this year. We haven't exactly been stellar away from Norman.

[Soonerus]

What is Neal like 2 for 12 ???

[NormanPride]

scrubs in. making a statement to the starters.

[kc sooner]

Anyone else think Neal is the reason our D is awful? He came in and hit that hot streak, so nobody cared when both teams were scoring more. Now, he's cold as ice and the D is still bad. Hmm?

That is a good point Neal is not very good defensively.

[IronSooner]

Anyone else think Neal is the reason our D is awful? He came in and hit that hot streak, so nobody cared when both teams were scoring more. Now, he's cold as ice and the D is still bad. Hmm?

I was wondering about that. I think KS concentrated more on D when we had no 3-point role player earlier in the season. When Neal came on I think KS scrapped D and hoped we could outshoot people. Now we suck all around. Amazing. I cannot believe our defense has gotten worse this season.

[John Kochtoston]

I'm pretty sure we're not this bad ... could go one of two ways after this, either we mail it in for the rest of the season, or this slapping makes us realize that lazy and stupid is no way to go through a basketball tournament. Hoping for the latter.

[Soonerus]

This is embarrassing...

[NormanPride]

And our rebounding has suffered since we have a guard out shooting threes instead of in the lane.

[TopDaugIn2000]

scrubs in. making a statement to the starters.

umm, too little too late

[Newbomb Turk]

Tiger's lead is down to 2.

[John Kochtoston]

umm, too little too late

For today, probably. But not for the tournament.

[NormanPride]

umm, too little too late

Not really... if the scrubs drop it to <10 and the starters get a fire lit under them...


No, you're right. :(

[lauderdalesooner]

Neal is definately not the greatest defesive player on the team but he has won several games for us this year.

[kc sooner]

This is sad.

[Soonerus]

10 points so far in the 2nd half...

[NormanPride]

You know, I thought we'd lose by 15. But I didn't think it'd be the kind of run-out-of-the-court type loss that this is. This team has no heart...

[Cam]

At least we should be able to break 40.

[TopDaugIn2000]

Not really... if the scrubs drop it to <10 and the starters get a fire lit under them...


No, you're right. :(

how about >20??

[kc sooner]

What a boring game this is terrible to look like this on national tv.

[TripleOption14]

NFL firesale begins in... 30 min. !! Now back to the sh!t OU game bob.

[NormanPride]

Walker travels with nobody around him.

They aren't playing like a team. They're playing like guys who are around each other when a basketball happens to bounce by. :(

[Soonerus]

over/under for OU is 40...

[Jeopardude]

I can't think of anything positive to say. And I pride myself on that.

[TopDaugIn2000]

at least we don't have to listen to v. vitale though
