It’s 33 -32, SUU at the half. Yes, it’s fair to ask where OU’s up-tempo offense is.
It’s now 39 – 37, Oakland. I’m semi-live blogging while listening online to WXOU.
The Thunderbirds are now up, 40 – 39. One blogger is not happy.
72 – 63 and SUU grabs another rebound.
Timeout with the score tied at 46 each. 13 minutes left to play.
50 – 46, for SUU. Uh, the T-Birds are 1 – 7. Hello, Grizzlies.
Any sign of OU’s big men?
55 – 53, Golden Grizzlies. It’s all Derick Nelson and Erik Kangas tonight.
62 – 57, SUU. Time to panic.
The boys on ‘XOU make a good point. If OU is bigger than SUU, why not just pound the ball into the post? Oh, that’s right. The Grizzlies play up-tempo offense, not half-court. (Losing brings about sarcasm.)
T-Birds now up seven points. This would be a terrible loss. Play some defense, Grizzlies. Grab a rebound, as well.
Only six and a half minutes left. Still SUU dominating the boards.
Now, it’s an eleven point lead.
70 – 61, T-Birds. Kangas is about to shoot free throws. No sign of the Grizzlies up-tempo offense or anyone able to rebound for OU.
4:30 left, the Grizzlies trail by seven.
Oakland cannot play half-court offense tonight. They are standing around waiting for three point shots.
2:47 left with SUU up 70 – 63.
72 – 63, T-Birds. The fans are leaving. Shane Lawal fouls out.
75- 63, SUU.
75 – 68, Southern Utah is going to the line.
77 – 68, JJ turns the ball over and fouls the T-Birds’ player.
79 – 68, it’s all but over. Awful. Just awful.
80 – 73 with thirty seconds left.
8.5 seconds remain. It’s still 80 – 73.
Clock problems have delayed in the inevitable.
82 – 73, Southern Utah beats Oakland. A shameful performance on your home floor. Disappointment and disgust now, perhaps links to recaps later.
