Ok, root for Tech Monday and take care of business Tuesday and we can start planning a spot for the Big 12 title banner.

We can take down the Horns Tuesday and then that's a pretty wide gap to overcome for everyone else. We play with the same intensity we had in the 2nd half and we will beat the Horns by double digits.

Hard to believe we ended dead even at 43 rebounds with them after the way it appeared to be headed in the first half. That's a lot of will power right there!!!!!!!

For the past few games, I've been waiting for him to break loose. I knew he had it within him to make some great plays and we saw that today. That big dunk reminded me of the one last year against WVU. Hopefully, he will do a lot more of the going forward--especially Tuesday and in post season.

Nice gutty win! Guards really stepped up in the second half and along with Mayer, really brought it home - celebrate tonight, then let's get after it and get ready for UT, they've had a week to get ready for us...

BTW, Cooper was really a non-factor-great defensive effort to keep him in check!
