So I accidentally fell asleep at half and woke up for the last 5 seconds. Sorry for causing this but you’re welcome I woke up.

O/U on ESPN was 144.5
That last 3.....

My 8 yr old son was thinking the same thing. He's like, "Dad, that's gotta be a bad beat for someone somewhere." Thank you for finding it.

Wow! Jamie Dixon was brief with TJ during the handshake line. Also looked like he was just going to head into the locker room with out shaking other hands, and then thought differently. What a douche bag!
I think he walked back thinking they were possibly reviewing to see if there was like .3 seconds left on the clock. At least I'm giving him the benefit of the doubt that's what was happening.

I’m worn out. Feel like I was in a fight.

So happy the guys pulled it out. Great win!

I don’t think the officials were great in the 2nd half, but not nearly as bad as some think.

We just have to play a LOT smarter…. including our coaches. That was nearly text book down the stretch on how to blow a game you have in control. Horrible decision after horrible decision. Luckily we were up 19 at one point instead of 18 I guess?

Emotions got the best of them for sure.

You'd think us cardiac Cyclone fans would know to just weather the storms by now.
I left the room with just under 5:00 to go. Stayed away for what seemed like hours and returned with 3:42 or something left. Did a 180 and came back for the last 4.5 seconds. I'm getting too old for this ****.

What happened? I left for brunch when we were up by 19 then sit at my table and check the score and it’s a 4 point game. Did TCU heat up or did we just stink it up with shooting?

A little of everything. Imploded. Turnovers. You know, stunk it up a little. To be honest TCU there for a while couldn’t hit the broad side of a barn. Should’ve creamed them by at least twenty.

The free throw discrepancy makes you want to vomit. I understand home court advantage but so far this season it seems like the fouls are not being called both ways
You know, a lot of times a team pulls back when they have a big lead, making the team that is coming from behind and pressing and pushing, etc. to get more fouls. THEN there might be logical discrepancies. It appeared that in this case we started playing that way WITH the big lead. At least according to the officials.
