Reunited and it feels so good.

[SlothFratelli]

JMac back with the cats.
Playing Jay's squad that has been nails at home.
Let's do it.

[ASUHATER!]

lets kick it.

[Cubix]

What channel is it on? Comcast is showing Wash. v SC at 830....

[SlothFratelli]

xm channel 194

[edgewood4]

It's on FSN-Pacific where I am. Too bad this TV doesn't get that station. :(

[EastCoastCat]

I'm ready to get some Beaver (but I'm married so I say that all the time).

[SCCat]

Let's get it on!

[catshoop]

10 more minutes for the party!

[CatintheHeat]

Anyone else notice that FSN misspelled Lute's last name.

[CatintheHeat]

Another slow start. You could have predicted this.

[SlothFratelli]

JMac is in
8-0 beavs

[aepiua]

wow, this sucks

[CactusPants]

Good start:angry:

[catgrad97]

I couldn't imagine a worse start to this game for Arizona. Lute having no patience with Shakur tonight.

And the Wildcats having no patience with the offense at all.:(

[SlothFratelli]

nice board IRad
and nice steal

[CactusPants]

Wow we did something!

[CactusPants]

I couldn't imagine a worse start to this game for Arizona. Lute having no patience with Shakur tonight.

And the Wildcats having no patience with the offense at all.:(

How many good starts have we had this year?

0-6 for shooting 11-0 OSU.

[SlothFratelli]

11-0 beavs
cats are 0-5

[catgrad97]

What, score? Not yet. :fur:

I feared a sputtery start with Jawann back, but down 11-0? No way.

I know, CactusPants, but there really is no reason for these lackluster starts on the road. We're on our way to screwing the pooch in the conference badly if we don't get our act together after this timeout.

[CactusPants]

Sloth, what's that quote from?

[losgatosaz05]

This is not looking very good.

Come on Cats BEARDOWN!!!

[catshoop]

oh my god... What's wrong????


... where is everybody, by the way?

[edgewood4]

I'm somewhat happy that I am unable to view this game. I'm gonna get caught up on some work and check back at half.

[SlothFratelli]

this could be very embarrassing

[SlothFratelli]

Sloth, what's that quote from?

google - chuck norris facts

[SlothFratelli]

we're losing 6-1 on boards
14-0

[OrCat]

Nick from his hip. Yikes. UCLA all over again.

[CactusPants]

We Scored!!!!!

[Ziggiles]

This is awful really awful right now, finally a bucket but wow, just bad so far.

[catshoop]

I think we need red uniforms again...

[SlothFratelli]

14-2 ty JMac

[Irish27]

Jawaan ends the drought. 14-2.

[CactusPants]

google - chuck norris facts

:lol2:

[CactusPants]

Walters dropped a pass? What that was a surprise.

[catgrad97]

How bad is that, that Jawann has to be the first to score for us?

Someone should check DeWitz's desperation "three." It sure looked like his foot was on the line to me.

[SlothFratelli]

4 AZ TOs

[OrCat]

Imagine that. Walters, FUMBLE!!

[CactusPants]

They can't miss even if they tried.

[SlothFratelli]

Half of it is Kirk's stone hands,
the other half is weak post-entry passing

[Stoopstrooper]

Need a timeout and a serious a$$ chewing

[Irish27]

Walters could not start at asu.

[aepiua]

We're screwed, Isaiah is coming in

[azdoubledown]

walters playing like ****, nice.

[SlothFratelli]

18-4
Man that crowd is jacked

[catgrad97]

Kirk Walters is Oregon State's b!tch right now. Can't hold the ball on O, can't get back on D. Terrible.

[CactusPants]

Anyone think we could play worse even if we tried?

[Stoopstrooper]

Best defensive team ever? Not tonight.

[CactusPants]

Best defensive team ever? Not tonight.

I think the UCLA game convinced me that that statement is not true.

[SlothFratelli]

Best defensive team ever? Not tonight.

Thankfully this isn't UCLA so we still have a good comeback chance

[ZONACAT]

This is unacceptable for a Arizona basketball team. Where is the pride?

[Ziggiles]

So is Jawann hurting or helping right now?

[Irish27]

Kirk Walters is Oregon State's b!tch right now. Can't hold the ball on O, can't get back on D. Terrible.

Walters is everyones b*tch. He is not a Pac-10 player. To think some on this board were saying he was a first-team All Pac-10 player.

[OrCat]

Nobody looks like they came to play yet. I still have faith though. It's early and we are talking OSU.

[ZONACAT]

Can't blame J-Mac for being down 20-4. Blame the intensity on defense.

[catgrad97]

Until the end of time, it will always mystify me that a team with such good coaching, clear purpose and awesome talent as Arizona constantly gets off to slow starts.

Do these guys have an issue with attacking from the opening tip? Maddening.

[SlothFratelli]

ok comeback is on, if we're within 10 at the half - we win.

[SlothFratelli]

HA on fire

[OrCat]

Sasha....All American.

[azdoubledown]

you can always count on Hassan. our big guys are playing like small guys.

[SlothFratelli]

25-10

[SlothFratelli]

28-10 :(

[CactusPants]

I guess the only positive is that it's safe to assume OSU won't shoot 80% for the game.

[aepiua]

embarassing

[CatintheHeat]

Oregon State is playing lights out.

[scumdevils86]

unreal 28-12

[catgrad97]

To be fair to Arizona, the Beavers could throw it up from halfcourt right now and hit nothing but net. OK, who p*ssed off the basketball gods? :p

Down 14 at timeout. It's still within reach. We've come back from bigger deficits, but not too many on the road.

And back then, we had a center. :angry:

[aepiua]

good job Brett

[CactusPants]

What's the biggest UofA half time deficit anyone can remember?

We're heading there.

[SlothFratelli]

28-14
T up Jay

[BibbysTowelDude]

:roll: all i can do is laugh at this joke...

[ghostwhitehorse]

To be fair to Arizona, the Beavers could throw it up from halfcourt right now and hit nothing but net. OK, who p*ssed off the basketball gods? :p
It was the "Wax the Beavers" thread that pissed Her off:eek: ?

[Ziggiles]

We have really bad for spacing and no defensive intensity.

[Stoopstrooper]

No way OSU can keep up this shooting. They have at least 7 points on circus shots. We just need to get back and not give up those layups. Lots of time left.

[SlothFratelli]

ASsU will beat OSU 2-0 on Sat.

[SlothFratelli]

Poor post entry passing.

[Stoopstrooper]

good D then bailed them out

[SlothFratelli]

first FTs of the game

[SlothFratelli]

JM in for MW

[SlothFratelli]

HA - smoking
31-18

[catgrad97]

We're going to be digging out of this hole the rest of the game. There really is no excuse to let a team who lost to Tennessee Tech and Portland dictate the tempo of this game.

Jawann McClellan has no rust, though. He is BRINGING it. Thank God.

[CatintheHeat]

That was a really good move by Shakur. Let's see more of that.

[OrCat]

We should absolutely love the pace of this game. But we look horrible on both ends.

[CatintheHeat]

Rodgers should have rotated. He never takes a charge under the basket.

[Stoopstrooper]

Doubled up again, no D, and playing 1 on 1 offense

[Stoopstrooper]

Down 21....puhleeeeeeeeeeeeze

[SlothFratelli]

39-18 ouch. We're getting Chuck Norris-ed.

[BibbysTowelDude]

This game is already over...

[OrCat]

Wow. 39-18. Uggggllly

[Irish27]

This is unacceptable. If they lose this game it will hurt more than just in the loss column.

[catshoop]

we are in trouble.

[catgrad97]

We're down 21 now. Ballgame.

Sorry to call it so early, but this team does NOT have the firepower to come back from this big a deficit on the road. What an egg these guys have laid.

The only comparable game I can think of was when the '01 national finalist lost big at a very average Oregon squad late in the season. We came into the game on a serious roll--seven-game win streak or something--but came out flat from the opening tip and didn't even bother to recover.

All can we do with this team is hope for better.

[losgatosaz05]

The Cats look like roadkill right now.

[CatintheHeat]

Right now, I just want to see some effort.

[djcat2]

That was a pure 5 points swing on the walk-on. Take a shot he shouldn't have and run away from the OSU player who shot a wide open 3.

[cpt]

I am so sick of teams careering against us...

[Ziggiles]

We can't close out to save our lives, terrible offensive spacing and no movement at all.

[SlothFratelli]

We're down 21 now. Ballgame.

Sorry to call it so early, but this team does NOT have the firepower to come back from this big a deficit on the road. What an egg these guys have laid.

I'm not saying we win, but that's not true.

[ZONACAT]

Ballgame.

Welcome to the bubble, I hate this.

[Stoopstrooper]

gotta get it back to 15 by halftime

[Zero]

blue jerseys all im gonna say

[SlothFratelli]

good block shak.

[Longhorned]

I'm in a meeting right now and can't watch the game. I'm really confused. You guys are making it seem like we're getting steamrolled. That can't happen, can it?

[Longhorned]

Do we look like a high school team v. NBA? I can't understand the score you guys are giving me.

[CatintheHeat]

OSU 41 Arizona 18

[Stoopstrooper]

This might be our worst half in 20 years or more

[catgrad97]

It's happening, Longhorned. We are down 23 now with less than two minutes to go in the first half.

We're still bidding for respect nationally. This kind of half was the LAST thing this team can afford.

[Ziggiles]

game is far from over. OSU has missed 6 shots so far, they won't stay this hot.

[catgrad97]

I'm not saying we win, but that's not true.

If I am proven wrong, I will gladly eat crow until Saturday. But this half is pure sh*t by the Cats.

Arizona, to have any chance at all this game, must hold serve here or get a steal and bucket before the half. We go into the locker room down 20, say goodnight.

[Stoopstrooper]

We deflect it...OSU gets it. We block it, out of bounds to OSU. The shot clock is about to run out, we foul or give up a circus shot. A snowball of epic proportions

[Longhorned]

Well, I guess we're showing that Oregon State is nobody to mess with. They'd probably anihilate Duke tonight, too?

[Bison79]

I uh....will not say anything negative, cuz last time I said that....the 'cats beat Washington....

but 39-18? that's last I saw....

[OrCat]

Shakur. That a boy..

[Ziggiles]

We need a stop to close out the half. Nice 3 pointer by Mustafa. If we can come back on Washington at Udub then we can win at OSU.

[ZONACAT]

game is far from over. OSU has missed 6 shots so far, they won't stay this hot.

Are we going to try these things called "defense" and "intensity" in the second half?

They've mailed this game in and it's pathetic. OSU has the 'mo and confidence, I can't see them blowing this.

[Irish27]

We're down 21 now. Ballgame.

All can we do with this team is hope for better.

I think you're thinking of the 2002 team that opened the Pac-10 season at the Oregon schools. The Cats got spanked by the Ducks in Eugene. The 2001 team destroyed the Ducks at the end of that season.

[djcat2]

Well, I guess we're showing that Oregon State is nobody to mess with. They'd probably anihilate Duke tonight, too?

No. We are really that bad.

[ZONACAT]

I think you're thinking of the 2002 team that opened the Pac-10 season at the Oregon schools. The Cats got spanked by the Ducks in Eugene. The 2001 team destroyed the Ducks at the end of that season.

I was thinking about that game too when they rolled us by 30, however that was a really good Oregon team. Oregon State is awful.

[catgrad97]

Well, we came back from 13 down at Washington. We're going have to make two more buckets at least in Corvallis.

[CatintheHeat]

Believe it or not, I'm happy to only by down 17 at the half.

[Bison79]

Yep, and Oregon State is no Washington....I'm not sweating it too much. Not yet anyway.

[losgatosaz05]

I hope Lute chews them a new one at the half. I hope they come out and play well and not let OSU shoot what looks like 80% .

[djcat2]

OSU is going to play slow down ball in the 2nd. Cats have to be spot on in shot selection and play crazy D. Like the last min.

[Longhorned]

No. We are really that bad.

I've always suspected we're capable of this.

[SlothFratelli]

I stopped monitoring this thread and we caught up 6 pts. Good night all.

Rep ME if we win.

[Ziggiles]

Are we going to try these things called "defense" and "intensity" in the second half?

They've mailed this game in and it's pathetic. OSU has the 'mo and confidence, I can't see them blowing this.


We have to play better Defense but some of the crap OSU has thrown up their shouldn't have gone in, making them use the entire shot clock has been good, not closing out on shots not so good.

[losgatosaz05]

Hey Bison if the game keeps going like this I guess we will have a new low for Rap scores.

[KrazyCatFan]

Simply Embarassed to be a UA fan right now

[Longhorned]

It's like the mindset at tip-off is, "Nah, (write in opponent) isn't going to show up tonight. Let's take it easy." How can this team still come out like this?

[catshoop]

I wonder what Coach O's speech would be in the locker room now...

oh...scary.

[Bison79]

Hey Bison if the game keeps going like this I guess we will have a new low for Rap scores.

Sh!t man I've barely paid attention when it was 13-0, at least I have an easy job tonight :-D

but mark it, cats by at least 5....

[catgrad97]

I think you're thinking of the 2002 team that opened the Pac-10 season at the Oregon schools. The Cats got spanked by the Ducks in Eugene. The 2001 team destroyed the Ducks at the end of that season.

No, this game was at Mac Court late in either the 2000 or 2001 regular season. It was really startling, as Arizona had just been looking unbeatable for the last month coming into the game.

Does anyone else remember the game I'm talking about? I think Bryan Bracey lit us up and several Ducks hit circus shots, tearing us up from the field in the first half. Gardner admitted later, "We never came to play."

[BibbysTowelDude]

The only way I can describe this game is... Prison Sex... Wildcats dropped the soap..

[losgatosaz05]

I thought we would be in for a game tonight but I did not expect to get blown out this way.

[Bison79]

Oregon State can only stay so hot, If they play this well, and make the tournament and play that well for 6 games, they're national champions.

[Bison79]

Well... reunited anyway.

Reunited with what? Ass meet head? :lol2:

[BibbysTowelDude]

******* meets Bruce...

[Longhorned]

Confidence level of Coach John at half?

[hotishmmm825]

This will MURK our RPI. Damnit We NEED to pull this out. I predict a 5 point loss. I really hope I am wrong and we win.

[AzDave]

I'm w/ Bison....we will win this one.

[Bison79]

This will MURK our RPI. Damnit We NEED to pull this out. I predict a 5 point loss. I really hope I am wrong and we win.

Each team has 8 turnovers. OSU has a 16-8 edge on the boards, but that's mainly because we've missed so many more shots.

[BeachCat99]

because their coaches do a better job of kicking their a$$es at practice.

I mean, this type of performance has become almost routine for Arizona. Every year for as far back as I can remember, we've gotten blown out at least once by a supposedly inferior opponent.

[Bison79]

Damnit, Rodgers has tendencies, and this was supposed to be his "good" RAP game, cursed! The one game allllll season I pick him....err maybe I picked him once or twice when i realized he had tendencies...

[Bison79]

because their coaches do a better job of kicking their a$$es at practice.

If only Lute could refine his half-time speech to his pre-game speech

"YOU PUSSIES GET OUT THERE AND PLAY YOUR GAME, WHEN YOU PUT ON THAT ARIZONA JERSEY YOU COME TO PLAY AND YOU PLAY HARD!"

[Irish27]

No, this game was at Mac Court late in either the 2000 or 2001 regular season. It was really startling, as Arizona had just been looking unbeatable for the last month coming into the game.

[CactusPants]

I actually had a glimmer of hope for the second half.

[mongrelcat]

I was at work so I checked the halftime score on espn.... thinking, 'was this a misprint?' Then I come here, and well, evidently not. This is surprising, even by this teams standards.

[Stoopstrooper]

oh well, just as bad as the first half

[Bison79]

I despise pessimists...:)

[catgrad97]

Cats lost at Oregon 67-79 on 02/01/2001.

Thanks Irish...it was the 79-67 loss. We won 11 of our final 12 regular-season games that year going into the '01 tourney. That was the one loss, and it was a terrible effort. We were never in it.

[Longhorned]

If only Lute could refine his half-time speech to his pre-game speech

"YOU PUSSIES GET OUT THERE AND PLAY YOUR GAME, WHEN YOU PUT ON THAT ARIZONA JERSEY YOU COME TO PLAY AND YOU PLAY HARD!"

There comes a certain point when the players themselves shouldn't be reminded to show up.

[Josh Gershon]

Help me out here.. who on this team is playing like they care?

[Stoopstrooper]

Irad Irad Irad !!!

[Bison79]

There comes a certain point when the players themselves shouldn't be reminded to show up.

Have you ever seen an arizona team consistently play a full game? I don't know if it's his halftime mojo but whatever goes on in that lockerroom...maybe he takes tools out of torture and tears them new balls and stuff.....but whatever it is, he gets the job done.

[Ziggiles]

Irad awful.

[djcat2]

Hassan was open in the fast break but Crod trying to take it to the hole himself....sign.......

[Longhorned]

Have you ever seen an arizona team consistently play a full game?

Very, very, very rarely, I'm afraid.

[Irish27]

Looks like the crap some were giving Washington is kicking them in the a$$. Washington fans will be back later tonight to rub this in our faces. By the way, last score I saw in the Huskies/Trojans game, Washington was up 19.

[CactusPants]

We get chances, but can't take advantage of them. Regardless what happens during this game, or at Eugene on Saturday this is plain and simple not a good team. Yes we will show up and win some big games i.e. Washington, however then there will be games like this.

I'm not saying the sky is falling, we are horrible, we won't make the tourney. Rather this team just doesn't have much of a future this season assuming we keep on playing like this.

[BeachCat99]

So is the opinion here that our players are heartless, self-absorbed, lazy underacheivers?

[Bison79]

Very, very, very rarely, I'm afraid.

I mean here a game, there a game, but consistently, day in day out? I don't think I've ever seen that...

[CactusPants]

So is the opinion here that our players are heartless, self-absorbed, lazy underacheivers?

At times, as in tonight.

[CactusPants]

The talent on this team is 110% there. However I can't remember a more up and down team as this one, EVER.

[Stoopstrooper]

WTF? Did the team stay up partying all night? There is just no excuse for this effort

[Longhorned]

I mean here a game, there a game, but consistently, day in day out? I don't think I've ever seen that...

Day in, day out: Not since 1987-88.

[Bison79]

Alright, where's the booze, time to get hammered....freaking me and the one TIME I put out a number....

[Irish27]

Wasn't Illinois down 15 with four minutes to go last year? The Cats can do it!

[Longhorned]

Wasn't Illinois down 15 with four minutes to go last year? The Cats can do it!

A little harder with PAC-10 refs....

[catgrad97]

So is the opinion here that our players are heartless, self-absorbed, lazy underacheivers?

No. Just that this has been an INCREDIBLY off night.

This is like our pre-Christmas effort all over again. We're allowed one of these...but that's it.

Why we even have ONE against such a lackluster conference this year, though, is utterly beyond me. I have to put some of the responsibility on the coaches in this one. Jay John seems to have absolutely outprepared the Arizona staff, at least when it came to the players' mental state.

[Bison79]

I'm confused...I thought McClellan offered a better addition???? *scratches head* how's he playing?

[BeachCat99]

Home loss to UCLA + any loss to OSU = sky is falling

[edgewood4]

Guys, this game isn't over. Even if we lose, the season isn't lost, and Lute will have the boys ready to play next game.

We always have one of these games --- I'm kinda ticked, but I'm not too worried.

[LegallyKenny]

We're never going to get Jay John back on our staff at this rate. :(

[Bison79]

I'm kinda ticked, but I'm not too worried.

I'm ticked, cuz I put out a number, and every time I do, something goes wrong, when will I learn to keep my mouth shut?

[CatintheHeat]

Nice little run there. The Cats finally show some energy.

[LegallyKenny]

Just heard on the Lakers-Cavs game "Luke Walton continues to ignite the offense with his passing." Sigh....I miss those days.

[catgrad97]

Jawann isn't why we're losing this game. The effort is there--and a nice finish by J-Mac to bring us within 14!

I-Rad, don't ever pull up for a three on a fast break again.

[djcat2]

Does JMac want to win or what. He's the ONLY player playing with any kind of fire. The rest, Hassan included, just want to go back to their rooms.

[Ziggiles]

down 14, Irad needs to pull his head out of his ass AsAp.

[Stoopstrooper]

Guys, this game isn't over. Even if we lose, the season isn't lost, and Lute will have the boys ready to play next game.

We always have one of these games --- I'm kinda ticked, but I'm not too worried.

It is frustrating, but that's the beauty of basketball. It doesn't really matter until March.

[BeachCat99]

Regardless of tonight's outcome, I'm worried. Good teams play with pride and urgency at all times. we're freaking Arizona; we should be up 20 on OSU, not down 14.

[Longhorned]

Nice little run there. The Cats finally show some energy.

Wait until the last 5 minutes when Hassan says, "Game time."

[Bison79]

Jawann isn't why we're losing this game. The effort is there--and a nice finish by J-Mac to bring us within 14!

Oh I know he isn't the reason, but I figure a nice boost, an easy win against JJ's squad....but he does know the system...

[azpatnca]

I love Jawann's spirit. Reminds me of Hassan in that respect, as well as others.

[catgrad97]

Regardless of tonight's outcome, I'm worried. Good teams play with pride and urgency at all times. we're freaking Arizona; we should be up 20 on OSU, not down 14.

Amen. Every team is going to have off nights, but the preparation for tonight's ballgame has been very questionable.

Back to a 16-point game now...DeWitz is showing Hassan up.

Wait until the last 5 minutes when Hassan says, "Game time."

Yeah, five minutes of playing hard is enough to win. :rolleyes: What a bullsh*t mentality if this team still has it.

[Longhorned]

Time left?

[edgewood4]

Time left?

Not enough.

[Longhorned]

Not enough.

Seriously, how much time's left?

[Bison79]

Not enough.

If they could just put the run of death on....and I can cover my 5 points....PLEASE. for once let me be right with numbers, otherwise I ain't going to work tmr, cuz I gotta deal with numbers 100 times bigger than 5...

[Ziggiles]

To much 1 on 1 right now.

[edgewood4]

A little more than 11 minutes left. Down 16.

[BeachCat99]

Amen. Every team is going to have off nights, but the preparation for tonight's ballgame has been very questionable.

the phrase, Dewitz is showing Hassan up, says it all. Either Lute's losing his touch or these players stink. Or both.

[Ziggiles]

11:30 left down 16. Arizona ball after Hassan Adams from JP lob then a turnover and timeout by OSU.

[CactusPants]

Kind of sucks how teams as good as UCONN or as bad as WKU/OSU (though I realize they're not that bad) ALWAYS play up to full strength and absolute TOP NOTCH vs. us.

How much do you guys want to beat that either OSU beats ASU by single digits or even loses.

[catgrad97]

Great halfcourt lob from Prince to Sauce!

And-one for Shakur! Guy is FINALLY p*ssed off!

[Longhorned]

A little more than 11 minutes left. Down 16.

We need to be down by 10 with 5 mins. left. I'm serious, we'll win.

[edgewood4]

Do we really only have 4 rebounds, or is the game tracker wrong?

[Bison79]

Do we really only have 4 rebounds, or is the game tracker wrong?

has to be ...mine says OSU 21-14

[Stoopstrooper]

And One!! Lets Go

[Ziggiles]

Mustafa with a huge and 1, with 10:39 to go pulls Arizona down to 11

[CatintheHeat]

Cats cut it to 11 because they are being more aggressive.

[CactusPants]

11 points...

[azdoubledown]

look at staf leading the team back with some heart. lets keep it going!!

[Bison79]

If we cover my 5, I promise to do the RAP tonight, if we don't, and win by less than 5, I'm going to bed :) Now I'm conflicted, cuz I'm tired as hell.

[CatintheHeat]

Shakur is really playing good now. Finally he's driving to the lane.

Cut it to 9

[DCCat]

the phrase, Dewitz is showing Hassan up, says it all. Either Lute's losing his touch or these players stink. Or both.
Hassan is going through a mid-season lull. Reading too many of his own press clippings or something. He mostly dogged it last game, too, even though we won. I watched him closely in that game and he did not play very hard. Didn't move well without the ball on O and didn't even try to get any rebounds. One board in that game, one board tonight. Lute has to be incensed about that.

Listening to the game now, it sounds like maybe Lute finally figured out what to say to light a fire under our guys. There's a little hope.

[CactusPants]

Interesting

[Ziggiles]

Down 7 with 9 to go after Hassan transition steal and dunk

[Longhorned]

Who wants to bet $100 on us losing? I'll take us winning for whoever wants me on this.

[djcat2]

Come On!!!!!

[CatintheHeat]

Cats cut it to 7. OSU TO

[CactusPants]

Alright down by 7 come on CATS!!!

[edgewood4]

Does anyone else find this game remotely funny?

[catshoop]

[Irish27]

Prince and Shakur in the backcourt are doing a great job in the 2nd half.

[Bison79]

Oh now see, this sucks livingin the east Thank god I move to Phoenix, but please tell me I get 'cats games and not ASS U?

[HiCat]

[DCCat]

[Bison79]

Does anyone else find this game remotely funny?

[DCCat]

Does anyone else find this game remotely funny?

[edgewood4]

This thread's pretty funny.

Exactly.

[Ziggiles]

WOW Chris Rodgers with a huge 3 under pressure, down 6 with 7:35 to go. 59-53

[BeachCat99]

okay, if we pull this off, i take back everything i've said tonight.

and i'll proudly wear the title of short-sighted pessimist for the rest of the year.

oh, by the way, the ucla game announcer just said that arizona stinks this year.

[bhanson]

Current numbers are 26-16, OSU.

27-16 according to livestats off arizonaathletics.com, which actually refers to the OSU livestats site.

[Longhorned]

I'd rather see us win this through your guys' posts than in front of the TV, or even live. Through your guys' beautiful posts. (Wiping tear)

[catgrad97]

Bush-league holding call on Adams on the inbounds. Should have been five seconds. Arizona down six--thank you, Chris Rodgers!

[Stoopstrooper]

This thread's pretty funny.

If the team can be bi-polar, the fans can be bi-polar too :)

[djcat2]

A$$ wipe refs are letting the crowd dictate the calls......

[DCCat]

27-16 according to livestats off arizonaathletics.com, which actually refers to the OSU livestats site.
That's where I'm getting my numbers (one rebound since I last posted). Those are essentially official stats.

[Stoopstrooper]

A$$ wipe refs are letting the crowd dictate the calls......


Yep, fans cry, refs call foul

[CactusPants]

These OSU fans are fawking a$$ clowns.

[Longhorned]

Yep, fans cry, refs call foul

PAC-10 refs call a foul when my neighbor farts.
