Holy cow. No idea how they won that.

Great, gutsy win.

And good for Akinjo for coming through with two big shots after being terrible all night. Those late pull up jumpers were huge.

Now it's Scott Van Blofeld to brag what a bad beat this game was.

Akinjo is the best player in the country!

I've been tough on Akinjo, but those two shots in OT were clutch. Game ball to Flagler, though.

Scott Drew, please go find another big.

If we were only healthy. Pack the Ferrel and let's kick some jaybird tail feathers.

Yeah I'm drunk but I'm gonna call you guys out.. ****ing crickets from certain posters when we stage a heroic shorthanded comeback..

But you don't hesitate to post your hot sports opinion when we're behind..it really speaks of a character flaw if you ask me... anyways..
SIC EM!!!

Flagler with the killer threes and the two big charges taken all on a bad knee.

Akinjo struggled, but wow the pass to Flo and the two jumpers were sick. He did a much better job of not forcing it in the 2nd half.

Flo 3-4 from the line. Ice water in his veins

And Iowa Bear...you asked me when we were 6-3 and down by 8 to West Virginia at halftime where the hell we were gonna get 3 more wins to get to 9-9..

WELL..WE GOT 5 SINCE THEN.

What a game. Kept me on edge I don't know if my heart can handle too many of this kind of game. lol. That was a brawl. Awesome fight. Sic em

Gutty, gritty win. Gotta be all kinds of proud of this bunch.

Also credit to Akinjo on the last defensive stand. He hedged hard and didn't foul, then had to recover to get a hand up on a shooter.

Very happy for these dudes

You heard it. The only way to explain a "day-to-day" player going off for 29? His Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ! Give God the glory and He will put you in a position to tell the world!

You're calling out the one guy who openly eats crow.. congratulations. I even told you after a game recently to feed me crow. You just have a personal agenda against me. Farrrr worse **** is posted on here. Don't see you calling them out

Marvelous Adam Flagler

In the end a gutsy road win on night when a lot of guys not named Flagler couldn't throw it in the ocean for most of it and the Higgins crew did their usual number on us as well. It's a "W" and we'll take it.

Someone call kaepernick cuz our Flagler brought OSU to their knees.

I guess that keeps the streak going, right? Didn't they say before the game that we were undefeated in any game where one of our guys scored more than 20?
