I was particularly happy to see OU go home as losers (beyond the normal for them). While I actually like Sherri, I HATE her teams/fans. Their bench should have been called for multiple technical fouls throughout the game. There was a student manager and some short girl with a mop on her head who stood for nearly the entire game. Finally, in the 2nd half, a ref motioned they needed to sit down. Ridiculous that it took that long to even say something to them. I also hate their running all the way to half-court to hi-5 teammates when a time-out is called. As for their fans, I hope they spent a LOT of money on that charter bus. This was a loss they richly deserved.
As for ISU, the seniors played a fantastic game. Brynn ties a career high in points, Nikki was over 20 points, Fallon had a career high in rebounds. OU's tight defense paid off (for us) by the end when they lose three offensive threats. While we were able to step up in OT, a big part of that was they had few reliable shot makers left of the floor. Time will tell if this team continues to play with this fire, but I hope they learned something last night. They really can play with just about anyone when they want to.
