Looks like Frank and his boys gonna run this past our start time.

@brooksmd I think they said 10:13 start.

South Carolina big lead should help this game end timely.

Wondered why no audio yet.

I'll want for Christmas is the Aztecs' two front teeth the Aztec's two front teeth.

Its 10:13 pm. I gotta go to work tomorrow so let's get this thing going.

Okay, I got audio and video...at least until the next pop-up ad...

Place is rockin'

Dude sorry I hit wrong button. Meant to fave it. Just woke up from a nap.

@Bwag Lame, they're using the USA Soccer chant "I believe that we will win." How orignal.

Oops, original.

@nwhawkfan still got some energy in the building. Hope that is something our guys can use as motivation.

Hunter👎

John Higgins is reffing tonight. He did most of KU's losses last year so officiating is something to keep an eye one tonight.

@Texas-Hawk-10 You mean the non call when Frank was bumped going to the hoop?

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Hunter👎

Missed shots but good energy. Challenged last shot. think he has 2 rebounds

But bad foul there.

@Bwag Hope they leave the Commodore alone at the top of the key all nite.

@Texas-Hawk-10 not a fan of Higgins,

Anybody know the trick to getting Jayhawk Radio to f'ing work? Got nothing.

Hello all!

A little poise guys !

@Eric-san BG don't dribble the ball. Give it to DG or Frank.

@RockChalkinTexas I couldn't even get post game commentary streamed after last game. Have to pay for it I guess.

Crap this game is on CBS?

SDS are going all out. I like what I'm seeing so far.

KU running and spacing the floor. Looking good.

4fouls already? -- looking at stats is all I got.

@Eric-san cbs sports

@Eric-san cbssports network. @Crimsonorblue22 has a computer link.

@DoubleDD A little sped up early on some shots, but overall well oiled so far.

@brooksmd don't think it's working

Hmmm, cuter than Holly.

Was that Higgins make that bad call?

@Bwag his hair looks good though!(puke)

Fool's Gold!

Anybody remember who and where the post was for front row?

Go frank!

I use goatdee.net for streaming.

@Bwag it worked this summer when they came home from WUG.

Coach going to the bench early and often. Love it.

What's w/ Wayne?

@brooksmd think it was jethro

@brooksmd Go to firstrowi.eu, then call up their basketball menu.

@RockChalkinTexas said:

What's w/ Wayne?

2 early PF

Sweet pass Ellis

Carlton scores!

Sloppy

@nwhawkfan I don't need it, just trying to help others.

Guys liking the announcers?

DESIGNER !

@Crimsonorblue22 theyre excited

Ellis can hit the 3 too coach

@Crimsonorblue22 Not bad. Energetic without screaming.

@KUSTEVE Jethro you kinda quiet. Still eating granny's cookin'?

Hope Svi can find his mojo.

@brooksmd it's like midnight there

Try not to foul, Cheick.

@Crimsonorblue22 Where?

@DoubleDD said:

Hope Svi can find his mojo.

He's missed 2 from 3 and Graham one. Overall 4/7 57%

@brooksmd florida

17 rebounds and perry being the only one scoring. Need some others to step up.

@DoubleDD By the way, I just picked up kielbasa for my Chirstmas feast from a place called..Double DD Meats!

They also sell hundreds of brands of Barbecue sauce. Pricey, though...a bottle of Bryant's runs about nine bucks!

Greene stripped it and Mari went down on the ground to get it

Nice board and bucket Diallo

Getting pretty quiet in there...I can hear our fans now!

@nwhawkfan We got a DD meat processing plant down here. In fact not far from me.

No fouls since forever. That's good.

free diallo!

Diallo just maybe Coach's answer for the High/low

48.5% fg

50% 3Pt

No FT's

KU fg 47% 3 pt 50%

Absolutely lethal when they move the ball. Unselfish play is the way!!

Wayne not going to come back in? Come on Svi 4 3!

Man that shot that Diallo hit from the left side was a thing of beauty. This team is downright dangerous when they play with energy.

@RockChalkinTexas Next half would be my guess

Wayne has 2 fouls

@RockChalkinTexas said:

No fouls since forever. That's good.

Well...LL is in and broke the spell

@Bwag of course he did. Not even a good foul either.

That theme music again...makes me feel like it's March Madness already !

2 steals & 6 blocks

10 assists and 2 TO's

What is the crowd doing? We keeping them quiet? Coach going to take a timeout?

Great end to the half...NOT

Do we not practice last shots? That was absolutely pathetic.

@brooksmd just watching the game. we look good. our passing looks tremendous.

@brooksmd wasn't a great possession but I thought Lucas was fouled when he rebounded and when he was trying to get back to the bucket.

@KUSTEVE well, except for that last possession....but we'll take it. Good energy. Seems like our shooting % should be higher, but with 8 O RB's, maybe that takes some of the sting of missed shots away.

Just note, when we had LL and JT in toward the end of the half, our O RB's remained frozen at 8. We had 8 ORB's when SDSU had a total of 8 RB's and they ended with 15.

@HawkInMizery We can't rely on getting the foul call, especially with Higgins. Unless he calls it on us.

@brooksmd he's re spraying his hair now!

CBS studio 4 in the box divided 50/50 men/women. Interesting.

No free throws the entire half. Weird.

@KUSTEVE u have to work tmrw?

@Bwag Good to see Dana Jacobson. Liked her when she was on ESPN.

Lead for 18:11 mins. 12 pts in the paint and 21 rebs. Greene 0.

@tundrahok SDSU only whistled twice.

@Bwag not sure I've ever seen Lucas dribble before!

@Crimsonorblue22 Hope I don't see it again.

For most of the half, we executed precision offense. A few crummy possessions, but overall.....very well done, so far.
And we did that with no Selden.

@brooksmd sad, but true. I don't know why he has a stick in his ass when it comes to us.

@brooksmd Me too!

Just in Weather forecast for the second half.

It's going to rain KU 3's

LL and Jam should not be playing a single minute in this game

@HawkInMizery His boyfriend up @ Iowa St. left him for the big time. ;-)

@Jayrawks1

Why? A deep bench is a must. I say play all of them.

The Mountain West Conference:

Motto: Remember Us? We Used To Be The WAC...

@RockChalkinTexas ha ha

@DoubleDD

Let me change that, first half minutes, I thought HM, Diallo, Bragg and Ellis needed more minutes, however I am watching on a stream online and its cutting out every 5 seconds so I am not real in tune with the game

@RockChalkinTexas said:

3 RB's though for Greene.

Greetings. How about these Mountain West announcers. Pretty excited to be announcing a big game. That one guy is going to need another pot of coffee.

@DanR

You nailed it. ;)

@DanR it's better than Fran, let's keep them

@DanR to much coffee for u?

He's an energy guy.

Wonder if ESPN can trade Holly for Jamie?

Want to see the O come alive with Wayne back.

Watching on first row sports online, so I'm probably 10 minutes behind the action (why I'm not chatting). Hopefully all those viruses I downloaded aren't Mac-compatible.

Is this bad ball?

Shit

So much for keeping the fans out of it...

Why are we driving it into downtown traffic in the paint and looking like sh$t doing it?

@DanR Firstrow is keeping up better than ESPN online usually does.

@DanR you are right about the coffee

@Crimsonorblue22 Tsk, tsk, tsk. :poop:

@brooksmd happy bday!

@tundrahok I noticed that...the sound's better too.

Why Perry?

@nwhawkfan But blurrier.

Wonder what's wrong w/Vick? Not to sick to travel.

Great half time speech and adjustments...

@Crimsonorblue22 He didn't suit up, but I thought he'd be at home in bed.

@tundrahok been sick since at least sat.

Did SDSU adjust their defense strategy coming out of the half?

@tundrahok Oh, I thought it was the egg nog...

@tundrahok maybe he had to catch flight home though

Just giving SDSU the opportunity to feel good. We'll get it going once they tie it.

Love it when an opponent peaks in the first 5 minutes of the second half.

Then the pep talk wears off.

@Bwag game of runs

@Crimsonorblue22 That's what Vick said.

No FG's in 3 1/2 minutes of the 2nd half.

So Jamari came in before Bragg here in the 2nd.

Ref standing there looking at feet and didn't call it when he drug his foot.

When is Wayne going to do something?

Walked!

I'll take Perry one on one any time.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@Bwag game of runs

We need to start ours now...

@Bwag Anybody but JT.

we cant buy a bucket this half. At least 3 shots have rimmed out that looked good at first

@HawkInMizery missing a few walks on their end!

KU about to go on a run

@Crimsonorblue22 are you surprised given who is reffing this game?

@HawkInMizery nope!😡

Loving the announcers. They're happy

Time for Seldon to do something.

@Crimsonorblue22 we didn't show a FT the entire first half that's pretty telling in itself

@RockChalkinTexas said:

@Bwag Anybody but JT.

Guessing he's playing why?

Cause he went down ont the ground one time to get a loose ball?

With new rules, shouldn't that have been at least a no call?

Dang refs! Get in the game

what the s$!t is going on is this game?

Hey Coach Self, lets run the 1st half offense. Perry scoring with back to the basket isn't our highest % play.

We got a break there. Time to capitalize on it.

Good job Mari!

love what I'm seeing out of Mari right now. He's is fighting harder than anyone else on the floor

@HawkInMizery not many see that!

@Bwag said:

Did SDSU adjust their defense strategy coming out of the half?

Not double teaming us in the post, playing us straight up and challenging the shooters.

This is where we need some action to free up shooters.

Seldon. Step back further and stroke the 3

Finally!

Thank you Wayne.

Another back to the basket miss

@Crimsonorblue22 i definitely see it. He can be for this team what KY was for the 2012 team. The energizer bunny that just somehow finds a way to make things happen.

Boys need to calm down and focus.

@HawkInMizery Wish he'd make some of those bunnies, though.

@tundrahok and a few others

Would have preferred Seldon deferring to Graham a the top of the key to dish to Seldon, rather than waving him off for Graham to shoot the 3.

@tundrahok wish they'd all make some of those bunnies. That's probably the singularly most frustrating thing about this game. The amount of shots we've missed within 7 feet is almost comical. almost.

@Khubar_Jayhawk said:

Boys need to calm down and focus.

Perhaps coming out of this time out?

Why is Devonte shooting 3s?

Greene wanted the ball in the worst way. Selden had nice finger roll.

DG's ankle?

@RockChalkinTexas I was just wondering the same thing

@Bwag said:

Perhaps coming out of this time out?

Hopefully.

@Crimsonorblue22 did he do something to it? I was grabbing a drink

Um mister Selden is waking up.

Wayne needs to drive it to the hole.

@HawkInMizery limped off

Traylor still getting significant minutes in the 2nd half.

Have we seen Self back off of his statements? I'm not sure what he's seeing and trying to accomplish there.

Great d Mari and bragg

Odd. JT, BG and Bragg.

@Crimsonorblue22 ughhh that's not what we need i really hope he didn't hurt it bad. He and Mason play so well together and push the pace.

@Bwag Traylor has been playing pretty well this half. Pretty much the only one playing with high energy for stretches.

@DoubleDD Adn there he is again.

@HawkInMizery Dg went back in

And BG hits a 3 and then fouls.

Count i1 !

@Bwag we r winning

Another 5 points and the crowd will go home.

San Diego is a dry climate. Why can't we hold onto the ball?

@brooksmd too much fried chicken at the restaurant one of the halftime reporters was talking about before the game?

JT hitting his FT"s

Just gotta get through this ugly stretch.

@Bwag 4-4 from the line. 0-3 from the floor.

@Crimsonorblue22 Little breathing room now.

We are in the bonus first. Amazing.

Traylor has 5 rebounds. 4 are offensive. The guy does work hard.

@Bwag now get diallo in

Seems to me it was Seldon getting going on offensive end that stabalized us.

I'm so proud of our Jayhawks. They answered the bell in a hostile environment.

@DoubleDD do not be surprised !!

@Crimsonorblue22

Not all just happy watching our Jayhawks grow up.

@nwhawkfan I'll take ugly if we're up by 15....

@DoubleDD We took a punch or two there at the start of the 2nd.

SD has no one in double figures.

@brooksmd said:

San Diego is a dry climate. Why can't we hold onto the ball?

And then that SDSU player slipped on the floor. Probably from the people being on the floor just a while earlier.

Throws!😳😬

Loving the hustle.

Dry the fricking floor

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Throws!😳😬

Getting a little wild again on some of these possessions.

Mari!

JT made sure he didn't miss that bunny.

Attempt there to execute the elevator play for Greene! not executed well on the elevator doors but Greene laid it off nicely for a dunk. Outside game opening up points in the paint.

@brooksmd loved the passion on that dunk. I wish we would hammer everything home and stop with the soft stuff

@HawkInMizery Could say the same for Ellis.

Have to say, it's nice to hear some different announcers.

Crowd noise approaching golf clap status...

I wish Diallo was playing right now

@SkinnyKansasDude he needs to play

@brooksmd I meant for everyone. Especially Perry. I just want to see Perry boom on someone once a game.

That's y Dg shoots the 3

Moonlight !

Graham picked pocket there.

@Bwag How did he do that without a whistle by Higgins?

Get the chant ready.

@SkinnyKansasDude said:

Time for some other Big's player rotation.

@brooksmd your bday is almost over. Celebrate all week though!😉

I'm so loving our Jayhawks right now.

They need to hurry up and get the W. I have to get up in a couple of hours!!!!!!!!!

@Crimsonorblue22 It is over. Time for a toast to making it into another year and for a KU win.

Dialo in and gets the PF

@RockChalkinTexas we got this!

@Bwag Diallo got backed down the lane & did not front his man...

Mason just got mugged on that basket and no whistle?

Diallo got the block and ran down the floor...we walked it up burning clock.

@globaljaybird You gonna join me in a birthday libation?

Jamari should have been a big wide receiver.

Let's keep these announcers!😍

@globaljaybird said:

@Bwag Diallo got backed down the lane & did not front his man...

Coaching moments, but didn't get enough time on the floor to get more.

@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah I like 'em !

@DanR to bad he had to live in a car, might have missed a few activities!

Can't wait til this team puts two good halves together.

Good game. Better than the Georgetown game last year for sure.

Beat the spread. Will take the win for sure. Can't wait to see the experts break down of the game!

Merry Christmas all.

@brooksmd HAPPY BIRTHDAY Brooks!

@RockChalkinTexas and many more!💙❤️

@Bwag merry Christmas!

@brooksmd Heck yeah boss-I'm good for it... & happy birthday happy azz...

Have a good night everyone! Bed time for me. 0600 comes entirely too early.

Happy the day before Christmas Eve everyone. Catch you all later on today. Good test for the team.

Happy BD, Brooks. Merry/Happy everyone!

Have a great Christmas everybody ! Hope Santa's good to you !

And...ROCK CHALK !!!!

@HawkInMizery I'm sleeping in! Sorry! 😴😴😴😴

Perry Ellis good game except for 5 TO's of our 9 total.

Have a happy holidays kubucket buds! RCJH!

@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks and you too. Thanks for keeping it on the positive side of the ledger tonight!

@Bwag that's who I am!

lucky you! Only two more days of work andt then i'll be off for 10 days so really who;s winning? :)

@brooksmd happy birthday to the saltiest Jayhawk I know.

Thanks everybody and a Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays to all. See everyone on the 29th/ESPNU. Nite all.

Speaking of Santa, we're doing a grab bag and one of my gifts is a stand that says Jayhawk fans live here w/solar lamp. I'm hoping to get it.

@Crimsonorblue22 Good luck.

@brooksmd you have cake?

@Crimsonorblue22 Nah. Brownies.

@brooksmd Happy Birthday Brooks !

@Crimsonorblue22 And vanilla ice cream.

@brooksmd sounds good!

@Crimsonorblue22 Nic had 25 pts for SMU. Wish we had him.

@brooksmd 'twould be an embarrassment of riches. Who would sit?

@Crimsonorblue22 Plus 8 assts and 4 steals.

@tundrahok Just rotate through the 3 so they were always fresh.

@brooksmd thinking we have a few unhappy as it is. Saw where Larry brown is back. Like that guy.

I didn't realize this until now, but it explains a lot. There were some pretty terrible calls and no calls -- mostly times where SDSU was out of bounds and there was no call or where a ball was off an Aztec and the call was wrong.
