OSU vs. Pitt

[Jonno]

We got power back at out house around 3:00PM yesterday but then we lost cable at around 2:00 AM. It came back on at exactly 11:00 AM, so now I get to watch the game! Let's go Pokes! ORANGE!

[MemphisPoke]

Sweet


Go Pokes!

[Jonno]

At the first media time out (15:38) it's

OSU: 9

Pitt: 10

[Verb]

These announcers ain't got NUTHIN' to say about us. They're Pitt all the way.

And then there's Hightower...

[Jonno]

Nice to see some points off of turnovers.

OSU: 18

Pitt: 22

[Jonno]

These announcers ain't got NUTHIN' to say about us. They're Pitt all the way.

And then there's Hightower...

Boy you're not kidding. Finally gave the boys some props for the win over Washington but it sure took a while.

OSU: 22

Pitt: 27

8:19 left in the first

[Jonno]

The shots aren't falling right now. Need somebody to find their rhythm.

OSU: 26

Pitt: 36

4:08 in the first

[Jonno]

Not a bunch going the Cowboy's way right now.

OSU: 31

Pitt: 49

at the half.

And then there's Hightower...

I thought that looked like him.

Looks like this game ended early in the first half.

[Jonno]

Keep chipping away at that lead. Crap Pitt just hit two free throws.

OSU: 37

Pitt: 51

17:31 in the second

[MemphisPoke]

Did it seem like that for the last 10 minutes of the first half that Pitt could not miss?????

I would love to know what their shooting % was for tht time frame.

[Jonno]

Man I wish Obi would play like he did last year pre-injury

OSU: 47

Pitt: 58

10:20 in the second

[Jonno]

I would love to know what their shooting % was for tht time frame.

I'm sure they said but I was emptying the dishwasher at halftime. :D The important thing was their percentage was better that ours. (39%).

[Jonno]

We're still hanging around.

OSU: 53

Pitt: 62

Pitt to shoot 2 with 6:37 left in the game

[cactusjack]

They shot 65% for the half.......yuck

[Inky29]

We get back in the game by getting to the rim and not settling for the outside shot, then we get it back to within striking distance and start jacking up 3's. So frustrating. I wasn't expecting to win but I do want to see us play smarter.

Dang, slam the ball Obi!!!!!

[Jonno]

Dang, slam the ball Obi!!!!!

Agreed. Gotta believe somethings still not quite right with him.

[Jonno]

Just a standard update.

OSU: 56

Pitt: 73

with 3:54 left in the game

[Jonno]

Just showed a graphic that UT-Arlington was one of the 14 teams still undefeated in the nation (8-0). Is Brooks Thompson still the coach there? If so good for him.

[pete1979]

Will OSU ever win a true road game under Sean Sutton?

[Jonno]

My bad. Thompson coaches at UT-San Antonio. Disregard the preceeding post. :D

[Jonno]

Will OSU ever win a true road game under Sean Sutton?

Apparently it's not gonna come against the No. 9 ranked team in the nation at their place today. :(

[Jonno]

Things got pretty sloppy late. Final score:

OSU: 68

Pitt: 85

[cactusjack]

Much like Lazarus.....we stinkith.

[MemphisPoke]

Well it is pretty obvious that we are not within the ranks of the elite in basketball this year BUT I did see some glimpses of a good team coming together. Much more in sync than Maui when they were up against a much better team.

It is also obvious that other teams have found the way to guard Anderson... like a glove. He's young but he will learn how to break that type of coverage.

[OSUSTORM]

I thought we played a good 15 minutes. That's all I got to say about that.

[Verb]

We're young. We were playing a tough team at their house. I think we'll get it together during the year.
