Up next: Oklahoma

It's 3:23 pm and OU still sucks!

Just checked and the YES Network has the game in HD..............1702 if you have Uverse.

Matt if your statement is true I would think Myck and J'Brown are going to have a field day penetrating and getting to the rim.

"TTEAM DEFENSE
As a whole the Sooners lack athleticism, especially off their bench. As a result they have a very difficult time consistently stopping the basketball off the dribble. Due to this, the Sooners have allowed opponents to shoot 43.3% from the floor. In addition, Oklahoma doesn’t have a big man behind them that’s proven to be a capable shot blocker and rim protector."

I will not if you promise not to turn the game off in the middle of the game!

OU sucks.

Is LHN the NO Network? I kid, I kid...

I kind of disagree (respectfully) about perimeter shooting being an OU strength. It might have been in non-conference play, but in conference play OU has shot fewer threes than anyone by a wide margin (136, 34 less than Tech), made fewer threes by a wide margin (43, 13 less than Tech), and shoots a poor percentage (.316, 8th). OU played a thoroughly putrid non-con schedule, so gaudy shooting percentages outside of conference play may be as much about that as OU's actual ability. Now that Newell is gone, Neal is the only guy aside from Pledger to have made at least 10 3s on the year and to have shot better than 30% on the year. Aside from Pledger, the entire team is 12/60 on three pointers in conference play.

Texas has to cover Pledger, of course, and it doesn't want to yield free looks to anyone, but I'm not that concerned about OU's outside shooting. They seemed to have moved away from that in their offense over the last 12 games. Most teams are taking about 30% of their fg attempts from behind the arc. OU is taking less than 20%.

Chapman wins tip and hits a ten footer from the baseline. Wangmene, Lewis, Brown, Kabongo on the floor.

Clark hits over Chapman's block attempt.

Lewis misses outside, Osby hits from inside the lane.

OU getting the ball inside the first layer of defense.

Brown misses a three.

Clark hits from outside, but inside the arc.

6-2 OU.

Bounce pass to Chapman who is fouled on the layup attempt.

Can't believe how many empty seats there are in Norman. Even their own fans know that OU sucks!

OU misses jumper (Clark?). Kabongo drives in transition but can't get it over the rim.

Fitzgerald hits 15 foot fadeaway.

Brown misses a three. Holmes fouled trying to get rebound. Fitzgerald goes out.

Well, if Texas is planning on having its dog game, this is a start to one.

Nice drive by Kabongo to dish to Brown for a layup.

Osby hits from outside.

Lewis with a three.

Pledger off front of rim on jumper.

Wangmene airballs from the paint, offensive rebound.

Brown with behind the back pass on perimeter (unnecessary and pointess). Holmes takes it and drives the lane, gets fouled.

10-7 OU.

Texas with three baskets. Kabongo with 3 assists. A couple of other chances were not finished by Chapman in layup range.

chapman back in. Grooms split defenders at top of key but misses runner. OU gets a pair of offensive rebounds but can't convert.
Texas throws it away with one of those dumb half court passes. OU misses inside. Lewis misses three, Brown rebounds, misses, rebounds, hits. 12-11 OU.

Osby dribbles it out of bounds. Texas ball down one.

kabongo getting into the paint at will
