Matt Thomas was SUPER disappointing today... Worst game he's played by far. So upset with his play today

I can't decide between a tuna meltdown or a patty meltdown. Does that come with fries or chips?

Why meltdown? We lost on he road to a good team. We're 14-1.

Again, we're 14-1.

No meltdown here. 14-1 with a close loss on the road against a good team. Hoiberg will get them regrouped, Hilton will be rocking on Monday night, and we can start a new win streak.

I think all of us were waiting for first loss and/or injury to derail the good feeling train. Unfortunately, they happened at the same time. Good thing is the injury is not severe, and the sting of the first loss is behind us. Just beat KU plzplzplz.

Nothing to melt down over. Obviously the loss sucks, but we weren't going to go through this meat grinder unscathed. Now that the loss is over and done with, the pressure to do something that is completely unimportant (finish undefeated) is over.

Now we can go back to simply winning games and getting Kane healthy.

Why meltdown. Learned a lot about this team today. They were not going to win every game. The Big 12 is tough, OU is very well coached.

The loss was always going to happen at some point, but we didn't need it happening in the easiest game in the next 2 or 3. That's where I get worried. The next 2-3 games are going to be tougher than today---and we lost today.

You have lost your mind over one loss.
It's a conference road game against a good team. It happens, and only means that we lost today.
Get a grip.

OU isn't a bad team and they are very well coached. They will make the tourny. Any road game against a tourny team is tough. **** this team played like hell for most of the game and still came close. This team will be ok the next 4 games

maybe to get over the loss CW should step up and give each member (with over 1,000 posts) 14 coupons to celebrate the best start in school history. It would help us get over the sting of the defeat. Do the right thing Chris.

We lost at Texas Tech last season... We lost at Drake the year before that...

Those are bad losses. Not a loss at OU, who is a tournament team.

We are 14-1 for the first time in how long??? I think some fans are just too used to melting down.

Glad to see none of you are "melting down". If the Cyclones were to lose on Monday would that set some of you off? After all 14-2 is pretty darn good.
