Tough game to watch today.

Haven't seen a crowd that large in a long time.

What I don't understand is why we have no mid-range shooters. No one ever pulls up mid-range. Especially Williams. And I don't know how Huggins does it, because I would have been T'd up and thrown out of the game after the first few minutes when it was clear this officiating crew was going to stink it up.

I still cant figure out why Spangler got Td up for taunting but they let Oklahoma make their layup first. I have literally never seen that called that way before.

Nice way to get off the snide with a very good game against ISU. I will never understand these fans that over-react after a loss especially when we play in such a tough conference. I guess it is our spoiled generation that just complain about everything when things are not perfect in their mind.

I only caught the second half of the game but a couple things stood out to me.

Without Higgins on the court, the game seems to go smoother. When our guys play with a chip, or a little anger, they seem to play better.

I'd love to face Texas in the Big12 tourn and beat them, and I think we could easily be a Sweet Sixteen team this year.

I don't want Texas. Bad matchups on the inside.

When we are playing at our best, I think we are as tough to beat as any other team I have seen. But then again, if we are not on our game we are easily beatable.

One critique on the team. I would like to see more of Brandon Watkins and let him use up some fouls with some hard plays in the lane. I'm tired of seeing little guards come down the middle and not ending up on their *** a few times. Send a message like Laimbeer or Mahorn used to do with the old school Pistons.

I agree. Far too often our guards are driving crowded lanes only to have shots blocked or lose control of the ball.

Felt good to sweep Iowa State

They have changed rules to discourage intentional and deliberate fouls by giving them T. And damn sure do not want them retaliating against our guards when they go inside - very effectively I would add.
