It’s not a must win, but there’s a decent opportunity cost if we were to lose tonight.

Here is to playing great defense and shooting well. This team has the roster to win a lot of games.

 

[NATEizKING]

I hope Prohm can figure out a way to start 7 players early in conference play.

 

[rochclone]

In my opinion this team needs to be 3-1 after the First 4 conference games to make a run at the Top 3 positions in the conference.

Kansas and Kansas State at home
Ok State and Baylor on the road.

Those two games on the road are against teams that will not make the NCAA tournament.

 

[JM4CY]

I still haven't calmed down from that game.

One of the great ones of the last decade that sometimes can get forgotten about.

 

[AuH2O]

Beat the Pokes.

Still can remember Fran's commentary on the replay. "That's a flop. That's a flop. And that's a foul."

I'm just glad that the officials called it right. When he decides to flop he is giving up legal guarding position but I was sure they were going to call a charge on Kane at the end anyway.

I'm going to be looking for how well we shoot the 3 in a conference game, with Wiggy back. We'll be a different team if we can shoot somewhere close to 40% but if we're down around 30% in the Big 12, it will make it hard to attack the rim as teams will pack it in more on us.

 

[NobodyBeatsCy]

Hope we get to see the first half. We follow West Virginia. Ugh

Jacobson, NWB and Haliburton are all over 40% so far, Shayok/Lewis around 35%. Wigg should get back to last year's form with a few more games under his belt. Of course, defenses of the opposition will improve. Still, more 3-pt firepower than last year's team.

 

[LLCoolCY]

Oh No! Not following Huggy-ball again. Thanks for the heads up, I'll have ESPN+ fired up to see the first 15 minutes.

Really looking forward to the game, been a long time off for the players and fans. I like getting an inexperienced OSU team game 1 that should allow for further integration of the full roster before KU. Getting a road win is never easy especially historically at Stillwater, but I am confident in this team will be able to accomplish that tonight.

Go State! Beat Okie Light.

Definitely better than last year's team. If those 5 that you name stay in those categories (40% / 35%), that would likely do the trick.

One of the great ones of the last decade that sometimes can get forgotten about.

They finally knocked the @OSU monkey off their back and it only took 3 OTs from an 8 PM tip off to do it including what, 2 last second threes from Naz?

Same thing with the OSU game in Ames that season.

That '13-14 team liked to keep it exciting.

Anybody know what espnn is on mediacom? I cant find it listed

 

[cyhiphopp]

Did you already forget about the trashing Liverpool gave us on Saturday?

I have to fire up the Sling.

Ugh, was bad enough last year but they are horrid on offense this year so they will be upping their 'Can't call em all' approach.
