Right there with ya.... I wore a spot out on our rug from pacing in that second half. Knew Okla State would make a run but didn’t think it would get whittled down to 2......their team had the better athletes but we stayed tough when it counted Can't compliment Silver enough for taking and making some tough shots when things were going south. Really missed Hunt to help handle the ball in the second half. Beavs found a way to pull momentum back when it sure looked bad. Definitely one to remember. Everyone contributed..26 points off bench ..Those shots by Silver were huge.. they were momentum killers... Calloo 15 points.. Tucker 5 points and 4 blocks and OSU out rebounded OkState by 20!! 52-32 |

The depth this team has is pretty crazy. Alatishe can’t buy a bucket. Ethan in foul trouble. Reichle was way off tonight (on offense, he came up with some big defensive plays). No Andela. Hunt knocked out by halftime.
So Calloo turns into Tracy McGrady, Tariq Silver hits a couple TOUGH midrange jumpers, Tucker gets a couple buckets and blocks four shots.....even Franklin goes out there. Guys who didn’t even play a meaningful minute against Tennessee are called on with the Sweet 16 on the line against a 20- win team with the likely #1 pick in the NBA draft this summer and every single one of them answers the bell. Credit to Tinkle for having everyone locked in and ready to go and then not being afraid to call on them in huge situations.

You know what’s nice about this year’s tournament? There’s no Duke, no Kentucky, and now no North Carolina. It’s like a lunch bucket tournament. DAM 🦫 nice.

I don't know how much more of this I can take but I'm lovin' it while I'm still among the living! Eighteen point lead down to 2 about finished me off. lol And to think that this run started with the UCLA game in PAC 12 Tournament where OSU trailed by 16 in the first half!! That they were in that game at halftime after the buzz saw UCLA threw at them was remarkable. Mental toughness is possibly the key trait of this team. Awful fun to watch. |

But for every team that is gone, there’s another hungry for respect. If you think school name gives you an edge on the court, you’re going to end up on the side of the road to the final four. |
