Reggie Jones with his chance for glorious redemption...

Clank.

 

[TulsaAM]

Frustrating game to watch with the tough defense making each turnover, each missed close range shot, and missed free throw more painful to watch

 

[nevadanatural]

Man, I hate being down 6 at the half. We’re going to have to come out hungry in the second. We’ve played really good D but some silly passes and those missed free throws have us in the hole. With Cincinnati going down this is a chance to get back in first.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Got to make FTs! And slam dunk the darn ball like a man every time.

 

[URedskin54]

Does anyone remember when we a decent 3 point shooter could really use one this year

We led the conference in 3pt shooting last year

 

[Weatherdemon]

Not sure what Jones is doing out there but he didn’t do well.

 

[T Up]

Well I was hopeful of the TU from 4 games ago and not the one from the last few.
Can’t shoot from outside or make FTs. So they double down on Martins and we don’t score. These 40 and 50 point games are so hard to watch.

 

[astonmartin708]

Why is Reggie Jones getting such a run? He was averaging next to no minutes against Memphis / Wichita in our wins.... seems like we should have something better to run at the wing.

 

[GoldenCaneKC]

Only down 6. Time to play the second half like our NCAA tourney lives depend on it...because they very well might.

 

[nevadanatural]

That missed dunk was huge. 5 point swings with the and 1 going the other way. Also, what happened to immediately stopping the game when there’s a potential head or neck injury? Hill was on the ground grabbing his head.

Yep, that was huge. Brandon lost it in the way up.

 

[Weatherdemon]

Missed free throws (3-7) and rebounding (15-21) is what’s killing us most.

Frank can work his halftime adjustments for a second half miracle let’s go frank you the man

 

[TulsaAM]

Taking too many threes. Houston gets away with so much BS. 35 trips or knees someone on every possession. They should have stopped game with Hill head injury.

Wade Jenkins was a master at that kind of game. I once saw him shove his knee brace in a guys crotch to keep him from backing Wade into the paint.

 

[I.I.]

Very poor offense first half. Can we adjust? Somebody tell the players the Cincy score to put some fire out there.

 

[nevadanatural]

Missed free throws (3-7) and rebounding (15-21) is what’s killing us most.

Actually rebounding is 19-22. Not what we want but not as bad as your numbers make it look.

Yea, the first held ball should’ve been a foul on UH.
Grrrr....

Does everyone agree franks adjustments will save the day and put us on first all alone

Those were the numbers on the yahoo sports app. Should’ve checked ESPN. Thanks!

 

[Henry Kendall]

Smoo only down 8 2:24 left. Cmon clock

Put your Faith in Haith!

Rachal usually comes out with some fire in the 2nd.
I’m hoping he can ignite the team with that.

 

[TU_BLA]

Missed free throws (3-7) and rebounding (15-21) is what’s killing us most.

Most of that margin came on one possession. The FTs are killing me.

 

[TU_BLA]

And here comes the Cincinnati 2nd half.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Houston fresh are studs

recruiting matters

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Wow

mills is awesome
And Kelvin has his players out hustling Tulsa just about every play

 

[nevadanatural]

That turnover after getting the rebound hurt. We’ve got to want it more than them or we’re going down.

 

[I.I.]

I think Kelvin was the one that made adjustments......

 

[TulsaFan2000]

Houston just is much better at hustling than us. They’ve gotten so many offensive boards just from pure hustle. We just need Rachal to show up and we’re back in this.

 

[libertychamp]

What was Frank’s halftime miracle let them attempt 3s they can’t make them

 

[TU_BLA]

Dumbass turnover there. Seriously. Go after the damn ball like you actually want it. Passing me off. May need to switch to a hockey game.

SMOO loses. Last 4 minutes of that game took about 20 minutes of real time.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Houston making Jackson look like a rookie on hustle plays now.

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Better players
And more hustle

tough to beat

 

[Henry Kendall]

I did not figure we would win, but we do not need to get demoralized.

 

[nevadanatural]

Tulane takes down smoo.

 

[TulsaFan2000]

In both games this year, Mills has been incredible for them

 

[Original TULSAFAN]

Foul mills if u must

get into his body with arms straight up and feet on ground —give up the penetration

just wow

 

[Weatherdemon]

In both games this year, Mills has been incredible for them

Once they got the switch to Korita I said, “sh1t” then he hit the 3.

 

[URedskin54]

I really like Hinton because he shows every team he plays against what effort actually is

 

[TulsaFan01]

Well the plus..
Cincy and SMOO both lost as well

 

[Henry Kendall]

They shoot with confidence. We shoot with fear.
