1. During the latter part of the first half and the first part of the second half, they were doubling Ellis immediately on the catch. (It was pretty much Lattin helping off Landen.) He forced a few up including one that he basically handed to Lattin's outstretched hand. But after a few of those situations, I really enjoyed the play where he found Lucas for a pass that led to a strong flush by Landen (instead of forcing it up). It was a nice adjustment on his part.

2. The other thing I noticed (and liked!) was that in the last 3 or 4 minutes of the game, KU, after getting killed on the offensive glass gave OU a taste of their own medicine by getting a couple of huge OReb to keep the possessions alive. That, and the free throws we hit near the end, really helped secure the victory.

Great callouts, Port!

“With kindest regards to Dr. Forrest C. Allen, the father of basketball coaching, from the father of the game.”
