My fear is this gets something like 50 (or worse) comments, but I feel like as a fan I (and hopefully the collective ‘we’) would be doing, ranked No. 1 in the country, this team a disservice if we couldn’t at least get our act together for a simple game thread.
Hopefully this is just your standard ‘take care of your business’ game.
Time to go to work.
BOOMER!

Thx for tossing this up. Hope there is a lot to cheer about on this one.
About to go to the gameroom and turn on the big TV. It’s hoops time.
need to get the bench some minutes tonight
Favored by 19.5. Just avoid the let down coming off LSU and we should roll.
OU needs to go in dry hard, fast, and often and finish the frogs by halftime. I want bench to play most of the minutes in the second half. TCU is not a good team and OU needs to make sure they know it.
why dry?
If you want to lend a hand and moisturizer the area first, be my guest. ?
What he said
Phrasing!
Ou up 55 35 at half….cracks 100 bench goes ballistic fans storm the court Hield scores 30
I’m expecting a similar start to this game as the Tech game,probably a little sluggish after the LSU game, but we should win by 20 or so.
By 30 need to get Bench minutes
I hope so, would love to see the young guys play 15-20 minutes tonight.
I needed this safe haven from the doom and gloomers tonight. Lets get that dubya.
let’s to this biz
Really love how this team plays.
BOOMER!!!
Nice, 5 free throws 5 points!!
Yep, especially after the miss on the front end at the end of the game at LSU. Good to see it didn’t get in his head.
I like this start
Yep, wanna see no distractions regardless of score.

So much for a sluggish start
Sick 4 year old has claimed the TV for the evening, looks like its gamecast for me tonight. Go slowly updating stats!
8-4 OU early.
still 8-1 on this, like that better 😛
TCU isn’t very good at basketball.
Getting sloppy
Lattin is quickly becoming one of my favorite players.
He is SICK!! Don’t bring it in soft!!
Spangler has to be better for us to make a deep tournament run. So inconsistent.
He looked like he was back at LSU.
Go Sooners!
Threes Please! Drop it on ’em. Boomer!
If we could get some quality minutes from AK, it would really help!!
yes plz
Buddy is soooo offensive!! 😉
c’mon big fella!
Buddy time!! They have no answer for him.
Buddy Buddy!
There is no flow to the game with these fouls. If we can get some type of rhythm watch out.
Love the aggressiveness from Woodard.
Jeez 7/7 for woodard so far from the line, sick!
That is an awkward motion from the FT line by the TCU center.
That was nice
Woodard to Lattin. Nice
Walker*
Your right, my bad.
that was a hell of a dime from Walker
That is what we need from him. I was disappointed in the 2 bricks he threw up at LSU. Beautiful assist.
He’s grown tremendously this year. You can tell he’s worked on his game.

i LOVE that set play for the lob
McNease is going to be a player!
Woodard is deceptively quick on occasion.
I bet he can play some football!
New England would make him a star.
Keep woodard at 15 ft and this game will be a breeze lol
Wow. This TCU team is bad.
I agree.
I just keep thinking, how did Tennessee allow this team to come back from down 14?
Tenn is just as bad.
LOL Tenn is beating Kentucky right now 56-54
Every team has their night. LSU almost had theirs Saturday
A bad team can play ugly and make a game close.
SEC basketball outside Kentucky is a joke.
Cousins is cold tonight so far
and theres that, haha
He’s fire when it counts
I like getting McNeece minutes tonight.
Me too
We need to blow them out so those guys can get some valuable minutes to be ready for next year too.
Buddy sitting, or just not involved? keeping up with a game this way is maddening.
Both!
He’s been on the bench getting rest. Doubt he breaks 20 minutes if the game goes as planned.
And still up 14, like the sound of that
Buddy just came back on the floor
I’d like to see some Odomes too. Like his game. Next year is going to be rough without a lot of experience for the youngins.
Nice James to AK
Nice. I like that they’re working inside more this game.
Send it home big fella!
James is going to be a player. Just needs lots of minutes.
This Cam Newton commercial is lame. I might be the last holdout to dislike the guy, but I really don’t like him.
I think the fact that so many people don’t like is why I like him. Could have cared less before this NFL season.
You will like him a lot less as he destroys the ponies on Sunday.
Why? I’m not a Broncos fan. Are you going to tell me you’ve been a Panthers fan for life?
oh, I liked that
Being in the bonus slows the game to a crawl.
3s
James is playing well tonight with that 3
It was a confident stroke. It’s contagious.
Spangler the trash man tonight. Like it.
Man if we can get James in rhythm and some confidence he could be big down the road coming off the bench.
OU is heating up.
Our transition O is unstoppable!
There is Cousins! Good to see you, young man
looking strong
Man that transition is deadly. Stopping the ball isn’t enough. You better stop the wings too. More fast break threes than any college team I’ve seen.
Young guys looking good!
Good minutes by James
James got that stroke. So smooth!
Shoot it young gun!
Half a hundred by halftime with the bench carrying the load? me likey
TCU coach looks like he wants a bottle of whiskey and a place to hideout.
Wouldn’t you if your team was playing that bad. I’m surprised he isn’t let his asst coach take over.LOL!!!!!!
Buddy broke that poor kids ankle, to bad the shot didn’t go, would have made all the highlights!
Got up off my couch. Then saw it was going short and sat back down.
It would be nice if OU gave away free pizzas if the team scores a hundred or better.
Wouldnt cost much, only have to give it to like 500 people, LOL!
I was at the game when we almost scored 100 in the first half.
Those games with Layola Maramount were like 150 to 130
Now you’re talking. That was pure entertainment
I thought it was like 180 to 170
Someone needs to look that up
173-101
http://www.soonersports.com/fls/31000/microsites/15mbb_173points/
Thanks Bob
Yep, that was it. 97 points with a minute left in the first half. We just couldn’t get a final 3 to put us at 100.
I remember that game, very entertaining.
We struck 50 before halftime. I can see us getting to a hundred.
Channeling their inner barry, half a hundred!
Love seeing the young guys get a chance to develop. Could pay dividends in March. Boomer Sooner!!
Not to be a downer, but Lon needs to find some medical releases for a few bench players an sign a few guys.
Who don’t you like? We’ve got a transfer coming in and a foreign guy. Not much dead weight on the roster.
It’s a done deal, talent coming in next year.

Jordon do you think Woodard moves back to point guard next year?
At this point I’d assume so, but they may try to find something/one else since this move to the 2-guard has worked out so well
Going to be interesting how that all works out, going to be a very different team next year!

I said 55 35 at half. How did I do???I know my Sooners
You missed it. Sorry. It was 52-33.
Is it possible both teams from last years championship game will be out of the top 25 next week?
Midway through the half, that come-from-behind block by Lattin was phenomenal! Never saw it coming! Good to see so many guys getting on the floor. Christian James is going to be really major next year.
Tennessee 76 Kentucky 70 with 4:17 remaining on ESPN
Tennessee trailed by 21?!?! Wow!
Same tennessee team that lost to TCU, lool.
Doing a thread every hoops?
I don’t know if there has been one for every game JJ, but quite a few. Good to see ya!
Used to enjoy hoops & other sports threads on other site. Need to remember this…
I don’t know if there has been one for every game JJ, but quite a few. Good to see ya!
Been one for probably the last 10 games or so. BBall definitely getting more popular on the board.
Stop in every now and then. 🙂
I’ll try to remember 🙂
Something is rumbling in the distance! I CAN FEEL IT! (Denzel is ready!)
Can’t drop this nugget and leave
Can’t drop this nugget and leave
There are some hints going on in Twitter, but nobody spilling the beans yet.
The Cousins hate has quit I see and it’s a good thing. Kid hit a few week rough patch but has played a ton of high quality ball for this team. Kids a killer. Keep pouring it on boys and let’s get some of these young bucks some quality run!
He broke out of slump in a big way.
Darn right he did. Love it!
Oh yea, Buddy is just stupid!
Red Panda is awesome.
Wonder why Odomes is not playing tonight? Hurt?
nice little sequence for King Deem
I wish the light would turn on for AK!
Lattin so much improved since the start of the season.
Yes he has. Even from last year. He ability to time his blocks are uncanny. His offense has improved a lot also.
Definitely a missing piece to all this guard play.
The light definitely turned on for him!
It did. Early on he was just a 5th body at times.
If he could become reliable out to 12′ scoring, he’d be a powerhouse. Everything’s there but the shooting.
Makes me sick so many empty seats for the Number One team in America . ..Teachers should offer extra credit for attending…hand out free Viagra…any damn thing
I agree with you, however all of the remaining home games are sold out.
The Viagra promotion has some promise. I’m thinking a “Bring the Wood” slogan. A secondary possibility might be “Stand Tall For Your Sooners”.

Tennessee just beat Kentucky
they’re just having fun now
Cousins with a big smile on his face, after face time with cheerleaders. 🙂
PLAY YOUR BENCH, LON
I think the bench will take over at the 12 minute tv time out.
OU is just taking it easy.
Glad we’re having one of our worst shooting nights from 3 in this game.
A lot of bench guys getting playing time.
Has TCU always had so little talent?
No, they’re much better than they used to be.
all 5 starters in double digits, sweeeet
Sweet stroke!
Walker ice cold tonight!
It would be cool if Manyang became a legit post scorer overnight.
Hopefully over next summer at least, we will need him next year!
Starters all on the bench at this point?
Buddy and cousins are in
Glad to see AK getting some time
Naw, gonna keep a couple of starters in for adhesiveness.
Understandable. Like seeing these bench guys scoring.
The kind bounce for Buford. Gotta flush that first time though.
Just walked in from Taco Tuesday, appears we have this sh%t in hand.
20 from the bench so far, plus all 5 starters in double digits.
Awesome.
Love Taco Tues at Brigantine’s at Shelter Island!
TCU knocking down 3’s like they are OU. What?
Buddy. That hustle.
That was a tremendous play on his part.
AK has to learn to stay on the floor, he goes for the up fake every time!
Yes. He has good moments and then he doesn’t position himself correctly, or gets off his feet..
Isaiah with a little sumthin-sumthin on that one.
10 blocks, almost 40 boards, 16-18 from the line. Glad to see we can hit other facets of the game when the 3 ball is off.
Odomes finally on the floor
Odomes looks like Dr J to me, from back in the old ABA days.
100! 100!
Damn, just looked at the football thread, I’ve got some updates to catch up on. Good win by the BB guys.
have a good night
Thanks for the thread as always.
Get geared up for morning bud.
I predict tomorrow is going to be Electric!! Good night all.
Damn strong all around effort tonight. 8 guys scored 7+.
Buddy has been a regular on SportsCenter recently.
Solid win tonight by the bball team. Hoping for some great things tomorrow on NSD. Boomer Sooner and good night all.
May have been posted already, but KD was in Norman to watch the game (and Buddy) tonight. Real recognize real.
Just keep winning.

That was pretty much a pedestrian win tonight with putting it on cruise control the second half. Buddy only played 31 minutes and it really looked to me as though Lon wanted to get some bench experience. Six players in double figures on this kind of a night? Outstanding. Great development. Give James a year or two and he’s going to be a beast.
Really loved the play of the bench last night and it was good to be able to give the 1’s some breathers. This kind of game will help us develop that bench for the tournament.
