Yep. I was a believer in Miro from the very beginning, but I was told he was a developmental guy who was a year or two away. But Miro has already moved ahead of Grimes several games ago, now appears to be cutting into Nunn's minutes. Just a matter of time before he is starting ahead of Nunn, IMO. Cream always rises to the top.

I liked the halftime feature on Walter.

Sloppy start to this half. I'd rather us not sleepwalk through the first ten minutes of this half and then get into desperation mode.

Looking more like last year's dribble, dribble, dribble with no points team.

Seems really odd watching Oklahoma St and not seeing the Boone bros, Moussa Cisse and Avery Anderson, who all seemed like they were there for 8 years.

I gotta say, assuming these guys are OSU homer announcers, they come across as pretty impartial.

On a nice little run at the moment to get the lead up to six. Gotta keep it going.

I'm super high on Miro. There's a lot to be said about someone who's played against grown men at the international level.

Poor decision by Bridges not to go into the defender

They have to literally jump on our backs to get a whistle.
Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? I was puzzled, frustrated... Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts?
