If the ball goes over the backboard, even without touching anything, it’s out of bounds.

Okie State is really well coached. They made some great adjustments to shut down Osun and focused on not letting Gabe get open. Without Grill that meant one of Holmes or Lipsey had to score a good amount. They didn't.
They lost by 2 at Kansas like we did.
They beat Oklahoma by more than we did
They just beat us.
Guess we suck.
My ******* god the cliff dwellers after any loss is STUNNING.
Also that was a Q1 loss.
This was one of those games where their guys who hadn’t made anything all month, lit it up. And our guys who have been hot, went cold. A good game to learn from. Gotta get right for first place Kansas STATE on Tuesday
The officials were calling every little bump on ISU and letting OSU hammer on the ISU guards all the way down court. Still should have won the game. No excuse for all the 5-9 foot shots that were missed in the second half.
And almost no college team plays a perfect game every time. We didn't, and OSU didn't. If not for the refs doing everything possible to keep OSU in it, we win that game. Hell, even just the missed goaltend changed that game tremendously.
A lot of drama queens on here ignoring the fact that just about every objective measure had this game as a toss up.
I am thinking basket interference? Would make since when he pulled the rim down with the ball on it. But not 100% sure.
We were up 45-37 with 15:49 to go and scored 14 points from there. That included missed free throws, missed layups and dunks, bad turnovers and poor shot selection. This team especially without Grill is still capable of scoring one point per minute especially against good defense.
Might be time to end the big Rob experiment. He can give minutes against teams with less athletic bigs, but that might have been the difference today. Ward needs his minutes.
I think ISUs offense has always been a Grill, Gabe, Holmes, Osun or Tamin injury away from being pretty bad. We need them all. Granted, OSU is a damn good defensive team.
Blown opportunity that should’ve been a W, but just had a combo of bad shooting performances plus Grill being out.
Unfortunately it looked like off the OU game OSU had a let down and came out flat. Kind of handled us once they woke up.
Or the obvious goaltend? Or Anderson just diving to the ground for a fouls call. Or the foul differential WHICH THEY NEVER COMMENTED ON ONCE!
GK D was pathetic and could not hit a bucket most of the game. Lobs and jumpers inside stunk. Bunnies missed too many times. Panic was evident when Pokes made run. Bad loss
Hey, it's not every coach that takes 30 seconds to thank every fan in attendance.
