Game 1 Post-Beard: Texas @ OSU, 11am, ESPNU

[Js1 85612]

Texas 12-2 (1-1) vs OSU 9-5 (1-1)

Texas -3

Let’s see how we respond to the KSU thrashing and Beard being officially terminated

Fuck Stoolwater

[Revolution512 1495]

Somewhat surprised Texas is favored, this is going to be tough

[CheesePie 238]

All eyes will be on the defense, obviously. A seeming lack of effort led to the highest scoring game in Big12 history against KSU. Hopefully the players can respond positively with the Beard situation being resolved. 

[CheesePie 238]

2 possessions 2 turnovers for okie lt. Good sign 

[Revolution512 1495]

Much better so far defensively. Floor balance and team D look good.

[BigOrange1 6473]

carr has made a couple of nice passes that resulted in easy shots for his teammates.  

[Horn80 6135]

Team playing hard.

[Js1 85612]

Love watching people still fall for Rice’s fake 

[Rockethorn1978 6109]

Looking better and focused. Need to win road games.

[ClubWhatever 12159]

Timmy looks my 75 year old dad out there dribbling off his foot and getting stuffed

[Revolution512 1495]

Disu 3 from the corner? Looks like our day

Except the two contested rebounds that went in for them somehow.

We didn’t box out.  That’s about the only problem on defense right now.  They are rotating and helping great. 

[ClubWhatever 12159]

And then that

[Newdoc 3453]

Lance Blanks on the color commentary (no racist) today.  He’s actually doing a good job.

We’ve had our share of nice bounces 

[rvm96 1643]

Lance picked TCU to win the national title in football. 15 seconds later he says there's going to be an undefeated champion.

[Degenerate Gardner 4085]

Wish we’d done a better job of attacking the basket in the last 3 minutes we’ve been in the bonus 

and with that, Timmy’s fouled on a drive. 

[VinyVango 694]

We need a plan b when the opposing teams screen with the big that Disu is covering … Disu consistently switching to cover a guard on the 3 point line is predictable and a waste of the fragile benefits he provides when his head and legs are in the game. I like that terry is more patient than beard trying to figure out what Disu can provide, but Disu needs to seize the opportunity and be more of an interior presence

[Valmy77 13274]

We do much bettet when the other team doesn't entirely comprise of Steph Curry clones.

[Js1 85612]

This is a much better defensive effort for sure. Im sure they got their asses chewed out the last 3 days 

[VinyVango 694]

That’s the smallest crowd I’ve seen “welcome” Texas to Stillwater

[Valmy77 13274]

Are we afraid to get too far ahead or something? Suddenly lots of turnovers.

[Pig Bellmont 8741]

How is that not goaltending?

[Js1 85612]

That was a man’s rebound by Mitchell. 

[Pancho 45073]

Did not need that shot by Arterio

[BigOrange1 6473]

ugly last 4 minutes

Ugly offense. Defense was suffocating.

[Js1 85612]

32-24 Texas at half. OSU no FG last 7.5 min. Much much better defense 

[Rockethorn1978 6109]

Feels like we missed out on some huge opportunities to not score the last 3 min.

[Valmy77 13274]

What was that? 4 minutes without anybody scoring? Well I will take it after the last game.

Horns by 8 at the half.

[jimmyjazz 46249]

Gotta like the effort on defense.  I certainly didn't expect that after K State pantsed us all night long on Tuesday.

Yeah we could easily be up by 20 now.

Ah well.

[LTtxfan 49378]

Halftime Stats...

[jimmyjazz 46249]

Feels like OSU is in bigger foul trouble (and I don't mean 11 to 10).

[Horn80 6135]

Good job holding OSU 24 points.  Keep the defense up and improve on 3 point %.

[Valmy77 13274]

Finally got it to 10

Come on Hunter! WTF?

[OU Sucks 8917]

Hunter is not doing well this game

[Js1 85612]

Don’t foul a three point shooter, AGAIN

[Horn80 6135]

He started the season playing very good and been declining since.  Rice has outplayed him for a while now.

[Valmy77 13274]

Jesus Christ. Another turnover? Come on guys, don't waste this defensive effort.

[ClubWhatever 12159]

Disu really needs to build up the strength in his legs.  He’s got no base. 

[Js1 85612]

Their best shot blocker being out hasn’t mattered. They have a bunch of them 

In FAFO territory 

[OU Sucks 8917]

Can we get Hunter off the court please?

[CurlyDumps 4485]

Rule of Texas. Can't play good offense and defense at the same time.

[Js1 85612]

JFC this is sloppy and ugly 

[Valmy77 13274]

What the fuck? Stupid turnover after stupid turnover. 

[Revolution512 1495]

We’ve morphed into Larry Bird at the stripe lately.

[A’Dam Psycho 1471]

If we can ever get offense and defense to play well at the same time, we’ll be pretty good

Yeah that has been a bright spot.
