I'm so confused by victory, I'm not sure what to do. Frog deserves a bronze statue outside Moody lol

The boys really should beat Rice on Saturday to win TWO road games in a row, especially if they can contain Kasemi (sp), their Israeli phenom...averaging 16 points a game.

The D was the key. Shutting their outside game down eliminated their offense. Their center was nothing but a space occupying lesion. TU had nothing once they didn't get wide open looks at the basket. And we all need to thank TU for being a horrible free throw shooting team.

We got some turnovers and turned them into points. And the pick and roll was truly a beauty to behold. And what few free throws we had, we hit.

Once again, we appeared well prepared, organized and hustled. That makes up for some lack of gifted players at times. They certainly aren't top 25 but I enjoy watching this team. They do play hard.

I was at the game a couple of years ago when McDade (I think) drove the length of the court for Tulsa & made a layup @ the buzzer to beat us. I wanted to puke. Payback is SOOOOO sweet. Beating them in their house is even sweeter.

Anyone looked at the box score yet?

Frog had 13pt, 6 boards & 6 dimes
Dia had 19pts, 8 boards, 6 blocks and 4 dimes.

Dia is disgusting this year, a total force even on off night

Very nice assesment, they got lucky with some early threes. NOW, when we had a nice lead in nut crunching time, we did get nervous, and almost blew it.

In my mind though, those refs screwed us all game, they really wanted Tulsa to win, Nyk's three at the buzzer was Karma against those evil f@@ks.
Probaly won't happen...BUT...maybe it will!!
