AN INSTANT CLASSIC
-
So I gave up at 2:30 left in regulation. I headed to the garage with my head hanging. A little bit latter my wife comes out and says the game is in overtime. I’m like honey I’m not in the mood, and she says no really. So run back into the house hell ya.

Wish we could see the presentation.
-
Second game in a row that we won it at the FT line. I’m not a big fan of that being how we plan to win. Will take that over a loss, but come on…let’s find an actual offense we can execute with some level of success.
-
@DoubleDD Can’t ever give up.
-
@wrwlumpy AMEN!
-
Lessoned learned.
Thank God for DVR. LOL
-
-
@wrwlumpy Where do you suppose @Crimsonorblue22 is?
-
@Bwag Arguably, FTs are the type of offense that is easiest to improve in the short run. Or are you referring to drawing fouls being fool’s gold?
-
@betterfireE Relying on a 80% FT % to win the game.
-
The Missouri game meant the most, but to see a line which had at one time, Svi, Devonte, Hunter, Lucas and Brannen able to come from 16 points down to pull it out in overtime with JAMARI playing the game of his life, with Lucas blocking the final shot before overtime and landing flat on his back, with Hunter being our only scoring offense for a six minute period. I’m sorry, but that is the hardest fought game by both teams benches.
-
@Bwag Good point. But we played HORRIBAD and still managed to come back.
It wasn’t like the ISU game, where they played essentially perfect basketball in the second half. We played ugly, ugly basketball with our backups and still came through against great 3 point shooting.
-
@Bwag @betterfireE 81.3% versus Tx and 79.1% tonight.
-
@betterfireE Granted and thankfully so. But I don’t think I’ve seen that translate in 1 and done tournament games when things are going well. Seems the player psychology is all different. Definitely take the win ugly over a loss. Will anything we did tonight carry over except play damn hard all the time? Maybe that’s enough.
-
It was as if clenching a tie made us relax in the first half. Then the subs said, “Hey we FRicken care!”
-
@RockChalkinTexas I’m betting she’s there til they turn out the lights.
-
No way I thought we could win after handling the pressure so poorly and then losing Perry then having Wayne go out. Like the Coach always says, if we put you on the floor, be ready to play.
-
Of games that we have eventually won, I think that was the most resigned I’ve been in the final 2 minutes of regulation since the NC in 08
-
@bskeet my sentiments exactly
-
…there was just no reason to believe that we would win, after witnessing the first 35 minutes.
-
You suppose after 11 in a row, and especially this one, those of us who are doubters, even myself sometimes, have finally learned our lesson? Or will we be back here next year wringing our hands, worrying, doubting and complaining as usual?
-
@DoubleDD honey!!!
-
@RockChalkinTexas w/oubre!!! Ha ha
-
The two streaks I’m most glad are continuing after tonight:
- 32nd straight final home game victory (dating back to 1983)
- Self still never swept by a B12 team
-
@bskeet Almost forgot about the sweep thing as that network brought it up as if it was gonna happen. Not this year.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Top 10 Plays of the Day coming up. That one super jam by Jamari better be there.
-
@brooksmd I’m on it!
-
It was awesome! Hope it’s on!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 See that leap by the Maryland player? Amazing.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Just read an email from my sister in Topeka. Said the game was pathetic and going to bed. Wonder what she’ll think in the morning. lol
-
@brooksmd and the guy walked! I probably would have too!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I probably would’ve had to change my drawers. lol
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He should’ve tried the shot and got the 3 FT’s.
-
@brooksmd it was pretty!!
-
@brooksmd I thought Perry was done for the year, thought his lower leg was hanging. Do they have MRI at AFH?
-
Could you see what happened?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah. Him and Lucas went up and when they came down LL landed on his knee. To me it was bad but didn’t look really bad. Don’t know what capability they have in AFH as far as MRI. But like it was pointed out, he came back out without crutches so that was good.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 They’ve been showing it on E*** when they show the game hilites.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Game hitlites up in a couple of minutes.

I was going to go to bed in the middle of second half, feeling frustrated. Glad I stayed up. Loved the relentless fight the team showed late in the game.
-
-
From the beginning of this showing the WVU pressure to the end showing Jamari at his best, the evening was summed up in one play
-
@wrwlumpy @jaybate-1.0 Gives hard currency to Jaybates theory of 'Bad Ball"
-
@Lulufulu No that refers to Jaybate’s medical condition.
