It was so nice bivouac we were going to win. Some of you need to relax.

Edit: how does Apple think "obvious" should be autocorrected to that?

Was it OSU or ISU a year or two ago when we had the ball last and they rebounded went the length for a layup and the win? Please no.


I think KState. ISU missed a shot to win it last year and we went on to win in OT which looks like tonight
KSU beat us on a 3 ball off an inbounds play in Waco

Morris no good! Baylor wins 65-63

fantastic win over a good team who played great against us when we played poorly!
Thought that was going in to.


I wonder if Freeman being on the bench kind of threw them off rhythm?

I'm thinking of a game on the road. Either OSU or ISU. I vaguely see the colors.

Like I said..."Grit game"

When you aren't anywhere near your best, but you find a way.

Good win for the Bears, despite the fact I have no fingernails left to bite or much hair to pull.

Sic 'em Bears!

Jake Lindsey is most certainly the player of the game for me. Hit a big 3 when we couldn't hit ANYTHING and a number of other nice shots including tying it up at 55 with an insane layup.

I already answered. OSU beat us on the layup to win, it knocked us off the bubble. it was a charge, too. I punched a hole in my door, so I remember. we then won the NIT.

There are no easy conference games. We will lose some we probably shouldn't. So will everyone else.

Winning when you don't play well is the sign of a champion


If we want to be champions we can't lose games we shouldn't. We had to gut this one out

We have many tougher games remaining

Early in Jake's career, I thought he would be a defensive liability especially in man to man. He can still get beat by quick guys but also uses his height as an advantage on D and driving to the hoop

Ish shoots 1-8 from floor, 0-4 from 3 but puts up 7 rebounds, 8 assists, and only 1 turnover. so valuable even when he doesn't score!

I'm excited we won, but now I'm sitting in Ferrell center parking lot not moving for ten minutes.

Let's blow people out in future home games.

so many big plays down the stretch... the Jake bucket in traffic at the rim, the D by Jake and Jo on Morris, the Manu fallaway with a high degree of difficulty, and then the great lockdown D by Ish on Morris on the last shot.

we made all of the key plays from being down 61-59 at break down to the final buzzer... only the Burton bucket for ISU, and he's a bad matchup for us down there

Yep. It was obvious ISU wanted to let him shoot from 3 early on. He missed his shots, but kept his game strong. On any other night he hits enough of those 3s to keep ISU honest and really open things up in the lane.

3/17 from 3 pt range while IA St was almost 50%, BU had 13 turnovers to 5 for cyclone.

Amazing that we won. Gutsy performance

Yeah ISU is very solid. Not as good without Niang and Nader. Still I was in shock at the 3s they were hitting. Babe shoots like 20% from 3 doesn't he?

We all think we should beat ISU but to call them a ****ty team was the issue. A B12 team w/ 5 senior starters will be a tough out for anyone.

It was great to see you tonight, Scott. Bears won ugly, but it was a win. I made it back to Weatherford.
