Big game for the Horns today. I think they come ready to play. Knock on wood but I just have that feeling.

Ridley needs to manhandle today.

I never understand why Holmes and Ridley are always taken out after the 1st media timeout. Then Barnes is SHOCKED good teams take advantage of Texas's best players being out of the game.

OU just outplaying us right now. How we close out the half will tell a lot about how the rest of this game will go. We've seen this team fight and we've seen them fold

There is nothing I am seeing from OU that says they are dominating. Their defense is creating some of their turnovers but that can be resolved at the half. They are guarding the paint really well which means they need to take some mid range and 3 point shots. Even if you miss, it spreads out the defense. I don't even think Javan Felix has taken a shot from the 3 point line and beyond.

Yea they're definitely not dominating. We just look a little out of sync. Hopefully we get things settled down and get a rhythm goin. If the turnovers stop it'll be a heck of a finish

If we don't quit turning the ball over we have no chance....

 

[Chris Flanagan]

Anytime Texas tries to get a little momentum, OU just pulls back out to a 15 point lead. It's not the blowout like last Saturday but it's definetely frustrating.

 

[hoskins5]

Yep this ones pretty much in the books. Good thing is this loss doesn't hurt us much(just our pride). Still in good shape for the big 12 and NCAA tourneys if we take care of business with TCU and TTech

Road woes again.....

Horrible game from our guards. Young team........just need to learn how to win on the road. Way ahead of where I thought we would be. Have a good chance to finish with at least 23 wins and get a 5 to 7 seed in the tournament. The good news is everyone should be back next year too.

Man, we need to right the ship fast. This could be the beginning of a season-end fade. I so hope not.

Yes a fade is happening !!!!!!!!!!
