So glad OU didn't get anything off that monster flop and blown call on it. Remember the had the circus shot to end the half too. Good win with a lot of screwy things going against us.

Melvin, Georges and the freshmen were huge. Herky jerky as hell, but a great win. Credit to the staff for changing up that awful defense
Free Throws down the stretch were huge. The Freshman looked great. Naz, Kane, and Dustin struggled. Melvin was Melvin. George in Beast mode, but if one more person says he has an old man's game, I will flip out. He has game, that's all you need to say.
Yes, defense much more effective in second half ... at least while officials weren't calling every moment of contact a foul.
Weird stat distribution. "Division of Labor" in action. Niang and Ejim all the points, Ejim all the rebounds. Kane all the assists. Hogue? 4 blocks I guess, that helps. Good work from Thomas and Morris, hope Naz carves back out a role.
DeAndre played well today as well. He didn't score but had 9 assists to just one 1 turnover. Much needed.
Huge win. I had an uneasy feeling in my stomach when OU cut it to 3 and our offense was looking stagnant. But, very proud of our team for finishing. Lets get OSU on Big Monday!!!!
I predict we stay ranked exactly at 16 again. Haha....referees in any KU game make me laugh. well, except when it us
...yep. I keep thinking about how turbulent these wins are, but then I remember they're against ranked teams.
It's not supposed to be pretty.
However, has there ever been a football/basketball season where I was able to consistently relax at the end of a game/win?
Matty Ballgame showed me a lot today. Great hustle, great presence.
Separate thought....the set on Niang has to be huge to shoot that three.

Gotta be happy with a win against a very good OU team, however, it shouldn't have been that close.
Another 2 or 3 turnovers in a row there down the stretch that you just can't have. We needed Niang's 3 and good FT shooting to pull it out. Just glad we did.
But if we really want to improve, we HAVE to work on defense and rebounding big time, and then of course stupid turnovers down the stretch.
If Naz Long doesn't start contributing, I think Fred might have to give SDW some of his minutes to see if he can provide a spark.
