Nevada Thread

[I.I.]

Please stay on the little guard. He is getting wide open threes. I will eat my words on Barnes. He can play at this level.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Gotta make free throws.... could have been an 8 point game but turns into a 12 point game

 

[tupatsfan]

Do you ever enjoy sports?

My bad. The fact I disagree with the officiating means I hate sports. It’s been AWFUL. But thanks for your logic.

Barnes has greatly surprised me, I thought best case he was the 2nd coming of Wheatley (good defender and rebounder with 0 offense). Can’t shoot but he can really slash.

 

[t-townpod]

Free throw shooting decent today. Problem is 3 point shooting. If we were at just 30%, not even that good, we’d be even in this game

 

[URedskin54]

Down 13 but I'm actually encouraged by how we're playing. Nevada will do this to ranked teams, especially if games are called this way

 

[TulsaFan01]

Jesus every play for Nevada is a foul. They might shoot 50 free throws today

We only clown on you because it’s so easy. Thanks for playing.

 

[URedskin54]

Beating a dead horse I know, but looking at that possession: we rebound, get knocked to the floor and lose it out of bounds, no call. They drive inside and our guy has his hands straight up and down; and 1 for Nevada. How do you get stops in this game?

 

[cmullinsTU]

How do you get stops in this game?

You get ranked and then refs give you the benefit of the doubt, I guess?

 

[nevadanatural]

22 fouls on the good guys so far. If we were hitting a decent percentage from deep we would be right with them.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Can’t make a fu**ing wide open 3.. 6 point swing to put us down 17 and almost the dagger

 

[I.I.]

Please guard the little guy. He was recruited to shoot the three and usually is a sub but we are making him an all star by not guarding him.

 

[t-townpod]

Refs are really bad

 

[TulsaFan01]

Shocker.. what’s that the 3rd or 4th time we’ve “fouled” them while shooting a 3..

 

[TU_BLA]

Not being able to shoot from 3 and they’re hitting 40% and there’s the difference. We’re not playing terrible. Hitting 50% of our 2 pt FGs. Nevada has also shot 12 more FTs. Lots of iffy calls.

We do need to hit some shots from deep though. Taplin showing just how good he is in this one.

 

[I.I.]

Eight minutes left. This is Tulsa time.

 

[tupatsfan]

Another bad call as we are on a 6-0 run

 

[TulsaFan01]

Not when the refs call a foul wayyyyy after a play was over...

Eight minutes left. This is Tulsa time.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Wow a terrible travel at the worst time..

 

[TulsaFan01]

Hell win or lose if Tulsa can just hit a few more 3s they will win a lot of games this year. This is my worried face :sunglasses:

 

[URedskin54]

Gotta say the evaluation by this staff on falokun was exceptional

 

[Gmoney4WW]

sweet move by falokun, showing something

 

[I.I.]

I vote for some Igbanu and Falokun as double post guys sometime. Falokun needs PT.

 

[I.I.]

Too athletic for Scott today. Korita was tougher.

 

[TulsaFan01]

SLAM THAT **** DOWN BOY!!!

 

[t-townpod]

Great game today. Problem remains, rebounding and outside shooting.

 

[I.I.]

No team is too big for Igbanu’s offense.

 

[TulsaFan01]

Taplin hurt....

 

[t-townpod]

Hate me some Gotleib

 

[TulsaFan01]

And Tulsa outscores Nevada by 1 in the second half. Hope Tap is ok and Tulsa will roll easy tomorrow. Great effort but when they shoot 45 free throws that hurts

 

[Gmoney4WW]

Also, Gottleib should never be allowed to do commentary on our games. It is very obvious he has no respect for TU, constantly making negative comments about us and our program.

He's showing a little more respect this half. The worst outcome at the end up with Taplin hurt.

 

[TU1NNJ]

The replay showed the Nevada player bodied Taplin down on the 3 point attempt

 

[TulsaRising1]

Lost by 10 to the #6 team in the country in their back yard with the refs screwing us over... Not discouraged

 

[t-townpod]

The replay showed the Nevada player bodied Taplin down on the 3 point attempt

Not what Gotleib said

 

[goldenhurricane2]

Losing by 10 to the #6 team in the country isn’t anything to be ashamed of. We had some opportunities and we couldn’t capitalize. If we hit some 3s this could have turned out differently. All that combined with some questionable officiating and the chips just don’t fall our way today.

I’m hoping Taplin is ok, because if he isn’t we could be in a little trouble.

We showed some potential tonight and there are some positives to build off of moving forward.

 

[tupatsfan]

If tap misses a couple games we should be ok against that competition. I would like him back by Utah or osu at the latest

 

[Gold*]

Not what Gotleib said

So what Gottlieb says matters?

 

[TulsaFan01]

Hell Dayton just lost to #4 Virginia by just 7. That’s gonna be a huge game for us I believe when we play them

 

[ctt8410]

Please stay on the little guard. He is getting wide open threes.

He came into the game with 5 times as many 3-point attempts as 2-point attempts. 5/7 from 3 and 0/2 from 2 today.
