Notebook: Oklahoma State-Texas Tech

Published

on

Five thoughts are here. Let’s bang this out quickly.

• Mitch Solomon had as many or more fouls than OSU had points until the 15-minute mark in the first half.

• The two teams started a combined 1/15 from the field so that was fun.

• Texas Tech has to have the worst uniforms/court combo in the Big 12. The opposite of Kansas. For football, I’d have to go with Kansas.

• Do you think Jeff Orr still goes to games?

• These are world class. Not as good as the cursive but right up there.

• More of this pls.

• Leyton Hammonds was happening for a while tonight. He and Jawun Evans combined for 16 of OSU’s first 20. He finished with a 14-10 line and kicked in three steals. OSU has some pieces, man, some good ones. I feel like I say that every week, but it has a star and some pieces and somehow the whole thing is one big cluster.

• One thing we do well? Shoot free throws. OSU is 21st in the country in free throw percentage and made 19/24 (29 percent on Wednesday night).

• I think my favorite thing about Evans is how little he talks and preens. He just balls. He’s a baller. If you saw him playing at the Colvin you would do unspeakable things to get on his team for two or three runs on a late Tuesday afternoon.

• LOL

• OSU had five assists. Texas Tech had nine. That’s a pretty good indication of how poorly played the game was.

• One person who did not play poorly was Aaron Ross for Tech. He had 22-7-2 on 6/13 shooting. It looked even better than that too.

At least we got Bundage?

• It ended 124-123.

• I wasn’t really listening but …

• At least this happened? Oklahoma State’s women won in Norman for the first time since … before I was in high school. I still had an AIM screen name the last time OSU’s women won in Norman!

• OSU didn’t trail for the last 35 minutes. Overtime.

• Not OSU-related but still pretty epic.

• Announcer Tim Welsh: “A game like this can change your mindset.” I don’t think I took that the way he meant for me to take it.

• Hahahahaha!
