We started 9-0 what's to say we can't do it again

No kidding... we were up over NDSU by 20+ with 10 minutes to go and they whittled the lead down to 6.

My feeling is always that so long as we're within 10 at the half, the game's still totally undecided. Granted we're down by 11, on the road, against our new arch-nemesis, I'm still not convinced it's over.

No one on that team hustles more than Tree. He will more than make up for that over the course of the game.

I hope he does, but there is no denying the lack of hustle on D and the boards in the first half.

Also, OU is shooting good because they have good ball movement and are shooting wide open shots.

OU is shooting 63 percent from 3. No chance for us to have the lead at this point, the as someone said, we're close enough to catch them when they go cold. And if they don't, props to them.

Exactly. You can't beat a team that doesn't miss, especially when they are extending the floor by making 3's from 3-5 feet behind the line. Keep it close enough to take over if/when they cool off. If they don't, you get them next time. All of OU's offense is driven by hot shotting. When they can't shoot, they are a terrible team...see the Belmont game as a perfect example.

Thank you. I understand the comic relief Dave, but you and I both know that there is no reason not to get back on defense sans an injury.

Down 11 at the half? Let's be honest, if any Zips team could make up a deficit like that(even to OU on the road) it is this Zips team. We just need to come out and play our game. We have been playing poorly but can turn it around in a hurry.

Lazy?

There it is. Let's go!
