shoulder to shoulder, let's go Buffs.

edit: yep, on channelsurfing.

We're matching up well early. Up 11-10 with a bit over 11 minutes left in the first half.

 

[NiTownBuff]

We're having trouble with their big inside. Trying Crawford and Dufault together to cover the paint.

 

[NiTownBuff]

Tulsa is playing great D. Not getting many open looks so far.

 

[Mick Ronson]

lotta shot blocking in this game, for a team not known for it (CU) and a team that i thought was guard heavy (Tulsa).

 

[Buffnik]

We're playing good defense, too. Down 19-25 despite shooting under 30% so far.

 

[OUBuff]

Seems to be a bit dispraportionate in the foul calls. CU is getting called for every tippy tap.

 

[Mick Ronson]

nice little sequence for us to cut it to 4 (refs let em play underneath/on the boards)......then TU answers and a couple quick fouls on Tunks and Hig. back to 9. sure could use the last points before the half

That's one of the things that makes it so hard to win on the road. It's always unbalanced that way. It is what it is.

Down 7 at the half isn't bad (29-36). If we can find the range on our shots in the 2nd half, we've got a chance. I don't know what we can do to deal with it when they've got both their 7 footers in the game at the same time, though.

 

[NiTownBuff]

We're fortunate to be within 7 with the way we're shooting and the foul trouble. We could win this with a good 2nd half effort.

 

[Buffnik]

Tough start to the 2nd half. Buff down 14 (40-54) with about 14 minutes left.

 

[NiTownBuff]

Ugh. Done for. Tulsa ain't bad.

 

[Mick Ronson]

crap. this one got away from us coming out of the half.

 

[Buffnik]

Ugh. 59-84.

Tulsa is a damn good team that always plays well in their house. we need to be worried we lost the rebound battle again and the FG% battle.
