Game will start on time!!! Maybe unc should play before every KU game.

Roy got 800-so how many of those came at AFH?

Excellent thread name.

@globaljaybird not sure but about 420 were at KU

Guess who's there!image.jpeg ↗

@Crimsonorblue22

He seems angry.

@BShark hope they frisked him

@globaljaybird said:

Think they said 418.

@BShark look at his teeth

Evans helping w/pregame, doing excellent

Wearing my lucky 1988 championship T-shirt. My wife told me NOT to wear it in public.

I don't recall all the details of the angry dude. He had a conflict with Coach right?

Well Reece thinks we are playing Oklahoma and Jay and Seth only think one team is playing tonight.

Oh and the Jay diss not listing mason as a POY nominee when talking about Josh hart

@stoptheflop

HE is insane.

@Bwag @globaljaybird 418 at Kansas I believe 206 in AFH.

@BeddieKU23

Bunch of scrub analysts.

I'd like to thank whomever played before us for making us not have to watch the end of their game.

ISU, you want to be big time, why did you give fans those stupid sticks?

OH crap they have magic wands. It's over now.

@stoptheflop went after coach after the EJ game

@kjayhawks thx

Game time!

My thought, watching the fantastic bald duo talk pre-game talk about how Josh Hart is in a class above everyone else and should be POY, is this…

Guys, let’s win out. And let’s do it for Frank. Let Josh Hart’s squad collect 2 or 3 losses. Let the media fall out of love with Villanova. And if they will not love us, then let them fear us. Let’s destroy everyone. Let’s make Frank’s case indesputable.

JJ, was my Hawk to rock even before he made that shot.

Dang👟

Good on Fran for giving the 08 backcourt props.

Lucas missing one footers again

Those cuts look easy. Not staying with our guards.

Put Svi on burton

Looks like it's going to be a lot of shots at the rim on both sides...

Hope JJ has an EJ kind of game. Go Hawks!

@approxinfinity said:

Those cuts look easy. Not staying with our guards.

ISU is about as allergic to D as us

Thanks refs for calling a carry. You neutralize the defense when you do that.

That JJ TO was because he's lost all confidence in his 3 pt/ outside shot.

Wow this place is juiced!

Cryclown fans in rare form tonight

Too many TO's. I think that's 4

Burton is a large chunk of humanity.

@approxinfinity said:

Wow this place is juiced!

We are their superbowl without question.

Wow that's about as bad as start as you can think of!

@BShark everyones

@BeddieKU23 Well, we don't look hopeless, just sloppy. Thats good right? :smile:

@Crimsonorblue22

KSU and ISU in particular imo.

@approxinfinity said:

@BeddieKU23 Well, we don't look hopeless, just sloppy. Thats good right? :smile:

Of course just dumb turnovers svi has to make that open 3 on the road

@approxinfinity Sloppy is correctable.

@BShark wv

@BeddieKU23

Too good of a look to miss.

Is Jackson smart enough to stay on the floor after that stupid call 20 seconds in?

@approxinfinity It's never good, right? And, against WVU there, it would be another 20 point+ smack-down...

@Crimsonorblue22 did u have lots of ice?

Beat Kansas shirts lmao

@BShark

Oh yea like you guys would never miss that open shot. LOL

@RockChalkinTexas no

@DoubleDD

Stop

Hmm. Good board/put-back Landen.

5 TO's

POY

@approxinfinity

Travel my ass!

@BShark

I've just begun

POY

Might wanna guard Mason LOL

Great seeing Landen taking advantage of other people's fumblefingers.. Yoink! And Frank... Splash!

Weird to see Lucas dominating

This SHOULD be a game for Landen to score. Nice job there.

All day inside

Feed Lucas, no one can guard him.

Ohhh boy. Keep it up Landen! Coming out hot! They can't stop you dude! Shhhh...

ISU plays selfish ball.

Wish Vick would get his mojo going.

I guess the fans missed the charge? LOL

If LL can just be strong with the ball, he can dominate in the paint - we may see more post feeds than any other game this year...

Go

Can't guard Carlton either, apparently!

No no no carleton, good shot

Hopefully someone told Carlton he scan score 30 on these guys

@wissox lol

DG

Wow rainbow Vick!

Graham appears to be getting hacked to death

Not sure even Wilt could've of blocked that Vick Rainbow.

So that's a foul on Jackson come on

Really BAD TOs - not like ISU is creating them - they don't generate a lot of steals - we're just giving it away...

Uh oh, JJ

Great response that last 4 minutes first play all year bragg took it to someone

@DoubleDD said:

I guess the fans missed the charge? LOL

They are ISU fans. They boo anything against them. ISU player murders someone on the court called for a foul? BOOOOOOOOOOO

Gotta survive without Josh now.

@BShark said:

Gotta survive without Josh now.

Usually that has been disaster

@BeddieKU23 said:

Is Jackson smart enough to stay on the floor after that stupid call 20 seconds in?

Not sure if it's smarts or not, but he'll be sitting now.

Wow if we stop turning it over for easy points that'd be great

Refs have it out for JJ.

@BeddieKU23

Definitely.

@kjayhawks said:

Wow if we stop turning it over for easy points that'd be great

Take away the dumb turnovers and this is a blowout.

The first foul on Josh was ridiculous. The I State player tripped over his foot.

@BShark

yup so typical playing here. Guys r playing free tho

He was holding back anyway! I missed the trip, did Burton just fall?

ISU 0-4 from 3. Seems like they usually rain threes down on us.

@BShark ISU shooting like crap too

@BeddieKU23

Much better start! Let's hope for a good finish too.

Nice not having to go up against Niang

@wissox not as good as years past

@Bwag With JJ out we may see some hi lo.. maybe.....

Vick has some serious hops

Dang bragg

@chriz

Testify!

@globaljaybird need to with LL in.

Go

POY

Boy that was fast

Speed down court, jog back!

Wow. "You fellas ever seen a 6 speed?"

Well nope on that idea...

Did Bragg actually miss the rim on both of those bunnies??? Nice clean up by Vick....

Mason is like Mike Tyson with self control

Vick came to play!!!!

Vick thinks he's JJ

As mentioned ISU is selfish. POOR ball movement.

ISU might want to slow it down, LOL

Vick came to Iowa to play ball.

@DoubleDD I wish JJ had Vicks three ball.

That's more like it

No to's Montie Morris hmmm😉

We just forced MM into a turnover. Great pressure by Mason and anticipation by Vick. That was sweet.

@DanR

Idk about you but I'm cool with this pace haha.

@DoubleDD Wait, what we're up 10?

Someone keeping Morris pts to Mason's? For fun? For fran😉

That's my boy Vick always hustling

Svi, Svi, Svi

Lol Svi

HOw did Bragg foul on that RB?

@wissox He was there.

Keep them at half court and keep running on offense.

Morris needs a better team

Think NOT being #1 is beneficial to the guys and the clone fans.

How about we hit some FT's tonight?

I think ISU should change their name to the Cyclops.

Come on, Holly. We know you love KU more.

I think Morris looks like a small Lebron

@Crimsonorblue22 did on that put back dunk

3 to's 😉

@Crimsonorblue22 not quite as homely

Feed the beast

Man LUcas is playing like a man

@wissox I wish that I still have mine.

@fihsch You mean 88 championship T?

@DoubleDD said:

Man LUcas is playing like a man

Yessir after the rocky start

@DoubleDD How huge will it be if Lucas plays like this all game and carries us to victory?

Should go to Landen every time. Vick hustling

@approxinfinity HUGE

Lando with the left hand....WHAT?????

Have to resist jacking threes when we can score at will from 2 feet

@approxinfinity

I'm kind of thinking blow out so we can see up starter Mitch.

@RockChalkinTexas I detest that 1 ranking until selection Sunday

@HawkChamp

Best effort out of vick in conference play

Seems like LL should have more than 4 points they showed?

16-6 RB advantage. Does it seem to people that Self told these guys to get out there and run tonight?

@wissox ISU weakness, boards!!

This is 9 point game that should be 18 and that's scary for us. No lead is safe here

@wissox Trying something new?

This team is waiting to take off....it just needs a challenge....

Odd game - no real rhythm - uncharacteristic TOs on both sides. Makes me a bit nervous that ISU is 0-6 from 3 - you know that they will start making a few at some point.

Svi did not come to play today

@BeddieKU23 those 3's could start falling

@chriz he's a 2nd half guy

Lucas is going to force them to have to double down on him.

Slow start for Svi

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@chriz he's a 2nd half guy

Hope so!

@RockChalkinTexas IDK< but it's fun to watch!

@chriz needs to work on his defensive slides

Ukranian dagger

Come on ll

Oh yee of little faith. LOL

10 of lead seems too easy

Jj in?

@Crimsonorblue22 We played nicely without him.

@Crimsonorblue22 jus been in for about 2:00

@DanR !Screenshot 2017-01-16 21.36.30.png ↗

@Crimsonorblue22 has been

@Crimsonorblue22 Don't like that. Doin fine for now without.

@approxinfinity that's big!

There is just NO defense in this game........

That block was defense!!!!

stop the dumb shots guys

@wissox Okay - half court defense then...

Carlton bragg is just not good at defense there is no other way around it

I wonder if ESPN will show the replay of that phenomenal block?

@DCHawker Really uncharacteristic for KU but ISU is always this way

Why is Bragg guarding Burton? Hes not nearly quick enough

Pink shoes needs to be defended.

Burton would be really good at horse

Pound it down the lane for the rest of the game, and we win by 20. Take stupid shots, and we'll keep them in it.

@RockChalkinTexas Or put in box and returned to shoe store!

It's unusual that Josh is playing with 2 fouls.

@HawkChamp

Quick enough or just not getting out on him?

@RockChalkinTexas

He cares about breasts.

Sorry, Sorry.

Coach needs to tell JJ not to take any threes or long jumpers. Iowa State has zero inside game

@wissox let him learn from da pine...

@HawkChamp Problem is who else does he guard?

@stoptheflop said:

It's unusual that Josh is playing with 2 fouls.

Out of necessity the defense can't play switches without it

@HawkChamp

Yep. Terrible shot I couldn't believe he took it.

@Bwag not getting out on him. I wouldn't let him catch it

@BShark said:

@HawkChamp

Yep. Terrible shot I couldn't believe he took it.

Just ugly and rushed

Lead disappearing since JJ entered game.

@DCHawker 5 guards

@wissox and Bragg

Thank you! Thought they weren't going to call that self pass.

TURNOVERS ARE A PROBLEM

Hilton "Alley"...nice name for our notorious collection of losers/buffoons, man if I could read their minds, but sorry, I dont translate crickets...

Talk about delayed whistle

Come on guys. Look at Burton. That dude is athletic for his size sure.. but he's a lumbering beast. This guy is not a fleet fox! Should not be getting away from you.

Lil slow ref

wtf are they booing

@DanR thats not "boo" thats "luuuuc"

I actually enjoy ISU fans.

@stoptheflop yeah

@DanR said:

wtf are they booing

Somebody didn't finish their corn on the cob.

@DanR low iq

@DanR for their cows...moomooomooo

Lucas is so much better on offense than last year. I would've loved to have seen what this Lucas could've done in the high low with Perry Ellis last year.

Did Svi not read the scouting report and watch tape - don't leave Thomas open for 3s - he isn't going to drive - he just shoots....

@DanR said:

wtf are they booing

We've been over this it's what they do.

@BShark I know, I'm just still shocked

@DCHawker said:

Did Svi not read the scouting report and watch tape - don't leave Thomas open for 3s - he isn't going to drive - he just shoots....

On top of his game being this way in general he has bone spurs, no way he is driving it and he should abused on D quite frankly.

OK so KU weather the storm. One concern Clones missed a lot of threes. Law of averages say they will hit more in the second half. Good news KU missed a lot of threes too, and seems to be KIlling it in the paint.

Um KU wins.

We have a monumental advantage inside. We need to drive it every time and get the ball into Landen.

@approxinfinity Svi = the X-Man

I'll 😁 Gladly take 6 puts at half .. Happy 😊 As a puppy wit 2 pe€?rda

Braggs defense has sucked but where would we be without his play so far everywhere else.

Same with vick they stepped up again for Josh Jackson's inability to bring his game on the road

Killing them down low and on the glass, put JJ back on Burton and for the love of God don't keep turning it over.

We shoot 60% - 40% from 3 - out rebound them by 11 - we should be up 15. 11!!!! TOs allowing the Clones to stay in this....

@DanR slap yourself a bit and remember where they are

Forget we have the lead because we will need to win the first 8 minutes to get this win tonight

@kjayhawks how many to's did jj have?

If JJ did what MMorris did by glaring at the other guy after a big shot, JJ would have been called for a T. Morris did that to Frank and wasn't called for it.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@kjayhawks how many to's did jj have?

About as many as he had fouls

Vick 6 points, 5 points, 2 blocks, 3 assists. He's having a good game.

@DoubleDD said:

Um KU wins.

They proceeded to hit some crazy ones after missing some wide open looks. Sometimes basketball is funny.

@wissox said:

Vick 6 points, 5 points, 2 blocks, 3 assists. He's having a good game.

And 10 hustle plays!!!

@BeddieKU23 agreed. They will probably try to double the post so our other guys will have to be ready

@wissox he was fantastic

@BeddieKU23 I counted 11.

See his tape job?

@HawkChamp

Agreed they started this on lucas. Guys are wide open we should have had 50 easy

@DCHawker said:

We shoot 60% - 40% from 3 - out rebound them by 11 - we should be up 15. 11!!!! TOs allowing the Clones to stay in this....

This game is being played at ludicrous speed.

Texas got a commit for a point guard for next year.

KU up 20 to 9 on the boards. RC

@wissox said:

@BeddieKU23 I counted 11.

Boy talk about quick with the stats

@RockChalkinTexas said:

Texas got a commit for a point guard for next year.

Because Duke let them since they basically have Duval in the bag. Good get for TX though they sorely need a PG.

Also up on TO's 11 to 6

Can Burton guard? I'd be going at him. He's pooped

Embiid with another Double Double and 5 blocks. Oubre scored 18 in another game.

@stoptheflop said:

Also up on TO's 11 to 6

Ughh not like this team. Morris been living in the passing lanes

@BShark still shocking

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

We can't guard him. Actually we are not even trying

@wissox yep. 1988 Championship T.

Only 4 FT attempts by both teams in the first half. 2 by each team. This can't be a Big 12 crew.

@Crimsonorblue22

Well it was Duke or Texas. Duke passed.

@approxinfinity I think your google translate word is for "cross-stitch."

Ukrainian Dagger = український кинджал

@BShark said:

@Crimsonorblue22

Well it was Duke or Texas. Duke passed.

I wonder if they are saying he wasn't good enough anyway lol

@BeddieKU23

I don't think he is the level of PG that comes in as a FR to start for Duke.

@DanR lol I'll take your word for it

@wissox Markieff had a great game for the Wiz as well.

pts 17 (.667)
13 (rebs)
5 (assist)
2 (stl)
2 (blk)

I am going back to work tomorrow for the first time since Mike passed. :frowning: Hope we don't go to OT. Got my timing belt, water pump, new belts and an oil change done by a tech for the local Honda dealer that a good friend knew. Got a good deal. At least I don't have to worry about my car crapping out on me.

@BShark said:

@BeddieKU23

I agree he can't shoot so k doesn't want that.

But honestly Texas had his spot set for 4 years. At Duke he might have been over recruited every cycle

@BeddieKU23

Agree. Good move for the player and the school.

Burton is 6'5". Vick or Devonte should be able to shut him down.

Alright boys let's see what we got. We know they are going to make a run

At the half:

He is um....burly though.

@BShark Josh and Svi would be better

@approxinfinity
7 ORB on 12 misses ISU should be ashamed.

@stoptheflop said:

We are definitely writing the book on how not to guard him

@BShark Athletic shuts down burly in round ball

:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Is 7 all Self is going to play or does it depend on fouls?

@HawkChamp Svi ?

@stoptheflop

At this level you can get away with it. Remember how crafty Niang was?

@Crimsonorblue22 yes

Went to LSU-Bama basketball game the other day. Walked in at game time and moved right down to courtside seats. Pitiful SEC basketball. Avery Johnson was fun to watch coach, but that's about all I can say was good about the afternoon.

@stoptheflop He's too strong for them - will post them low

Mason I expect you to put this team on your back. Do it boy

@BShark the key is speed and not letting him get hot from three

I would definitely put Josh on Burton though.

@BShark said:

I would definitely put Josh on Burton though.

So he foul out?

You think Bill Self talked about ball security at the half?

@RockChalkinTexas lean on friends! It sucks! You are strong

@RockChalkinTexas said:

Barring disaster yes.

@wissox In between his yelling about the ill advised shots.

Foul!!!

One positive is we only have 4 fouls against, only JJ with 2

Josh on Burton, kind of.

Mason hurt

LL hack this!!!

Frank is hurting....

What's wrong with frank?

@wissox

Refs calling it loose, benefits both teams

Frank👍👍

@HawkChamp knee

apparently "hilton magic" means intimidating the refs into reversing calls.

Please be okay Frank

@Crimsonorblue22 what specifically?

ISU has no inside game . We can make it slow & ugly or runs wit da dogs 🐶Either way it's ours to loose.

POY

@HawkChamp didn't say. Limping and rubbing it

Rub it more!!

Josh, follow your shot.

Let's see if Mason can overcome his injury. Tyson could fight with a spinal [spinal](

man, don't kick it out to JJ for three, svi

Frank's dad they just showed.

Get Josh out

Poor Josh on 3

Seems to be running ok

@RockChalkinTexas #BIFM...Sr!

blablabla Fran

@approxinfinity awesome

@BeddieKU23 He learns in real time. Leave him in.

Iowa st ref comes in again

Hilton magic indeed

worst refs ever or most insecure refs ever?

@approxinfinity said:

Josh, follow your shot.

And get a hand up on defense

@BeddieKU23

We pay the refs though. Legit thread on Cyfan made before this game.

Make sure u get video of him picking up his cash

2nd overturned call. Even if they're right, it looks really bad. ESPN wants viewers to stay interested I guess.

Coach needs to tell Josh to calm down. That's another turnover

Can't give him a pass that hard that close

@Crimsonorblue22 yes all on Josh. Not the refs fault

@wissox said:

2nd overturned call. Even if they're right, it looks really bad. ESPN wants viewers to stay interested I guess.

Same ref who thinks he saw something

Man, Josh's rebounding is elite. So good. And getting better.

But... on offense, he's like a cat batting around the ball like a mouse.. stop playing with it AND EAT THE FLIPPIN MOUSE!

@Crimsonorblue22 Except Bragg wasn't even looking for a pass. It went off his chest. Whoops, on the replay Bragg caught it but it was tipped away. My apologies to Mr. Bragg.

@BShark said:

Hilton magic indeed

Hilton con...

Hilton bait and switch....

Hilton 3 card monte... (okay that's a bad pun)

@DCHawker yes bad

@wissox said:

I actually enjoy ISU fans.

Too many frozen winters in Wis?

Self told the third ref.....That's twice he overturned his call.

foul on bone spurs

@DanR can't get up

Ref "fix" is on, keep the game close for viewership purposes...The "Rules" are prisoner to ad dollars.

ok, I take it back.

@approxinfinity which way?

@Bwag They're energetic, enthusiastic, cheer like mad when they make any basket, they're not nasty. They're loud. Fun environment.

Good feed to CB

Not me KU about to go on a run

Joke

Love watching Bragg play with his head in the game

@wissox They make me really want a happy meal.

Lol Fran you aren't supposed to be biased.

@approxinfinity deleted it

With just 4 healthy guys out there how r we supposed to keep this up

@BeddieKU23 we don't have spurs

@Crimsonorblue22 which one?

@BShark said:

Lol Fran you aren't supposed to be biased.

:stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

Yea right

@approxinfinity you know Shhhh

@chriz said:

Love watching Bragg play with his head in the game

Well, half a head... He's scoring, but is still a major liability on the defensive end - out of position and not blocking out...

Bragg is playing great but he has let up some big offensive rebounds

Need to keep going inside every time. They can't stop us. No need to try to out shoot them - there are other games where that will be important but it isn't today

Devonte hasn't scored since the early part of the game. 6 pts.

@wissox Rand boo when anything happens not to their liking.

@stoptheflop needs to drive it more

Two in double figures and one is Bragg.

Meanwhile, BSPN pans over to the Cyclone Alley, who are busying themselves making incomprehensible, yet still reprehensible, sounds...jokers.

Lotsa time No worries 😉 Fran isn't on the court - justfllapping da yap.

@HawkChamp make the refs call fouls

Johnny Orr must of tipped that Mason 3

Okay I'm getting nervous now

Air ball

@Bwag and theres a third, Landen.

LL now in double

SVI?

What is wrong with svi?

Hate these stupid TO's. Totally unforced.

@DanR he'll kill us against wv

@DanR fouls keeling him out

I wonder if they'll reverse it and give it to the Clones?

@BeddieKU23

That turnover was horrific. Stole some time with Mason out better get him back in soon.

Fran, FYI, when you need magic or miracles your team sucks, OK?

Lucas needs to hold onto the ball. He's had several tipped out of his hands. But, he's having a good game. 10 pts, 5 boards

I really wish someone on the coaching staff would teach the jump stop. Svi could have used it there instead of making a tough pass

Morris knows he needs more help than ISU can bring He's begging for magic cause the clones are out

Huge TO by Svi there

@DanR
Now you're talking my language.

@HawkChamp Shouldn't Svi have jumpstopped out of the womb?

@HawkChamp stay out of the side line

@approxinfinity heard he euro stepped out of the womb

@BShark said:

Okay I'm getting nervous now

Relax this is a veteran group been there done that.

@DanR dont the euros use the jumpstop a lot as well? Ehh.. I may be off on that one :smile:

@DoubleDD

Could say the same for ISU. Two straight losses in Hilton mostly the same guys here

@BShark don't get T'd up Bill. and F these refs. Bush league.

Dumbass refs

Lucas got hacked. That's your call, refs.

@BShark The magic is about to run out.

These refs now officially suck

These refs really trying hard for ISU.

@Bwag

turrible as Chuck would say

OH crap the reversing refs.

Anyone know anything about Frank?

@wissox Trained by Higgins.

What a joke.

Hope we don't regret losing that alternating possession. That was clearly our ball.

Are you kidding me? You can't take our possession arrow! seriously?

@DoubleDD said:

What a joke.

I'm not laughing....

Hilton bs

I think I'd rather have Higgins ref this game than these clowns.

Thought they were going to call 3 sec

Didn't look like he did much except hold his arm

Hey refs call the game right and you don't need make up calls.

If it makes the clones cry, i'm ok with it.

Wow these refs are unbelievably bad

@DanR
хрестик

Pace has really slowed down...

Big 3

I'd like to see the team pump fake to Landen and then find the open guy.

Burtons walking

I heard a fan yell BS twice and another one

Let's give them ten minutes of hell they'll remember.

Bad pass Landen

@RockChalkinTexas more than that. I just did too

crowd wanted a charge, I guess

Bad to there

Oh god Carlton come on man, settle down.

@wissox sorry, can't stand that booing on obvious plays

Bragg

Quit crying ISU fans! Biggest bunch of whiners in the Big 12, even worse than KSU fans.

The only people I can think of who would do worse than these refs is the ISU fans

Somebody might want to call the national guard. As we know how hostile Clone fans get after a loss.

Wow

@Texas-Hawk-10 worse than Tennessee Lady Vols fans

Both teams are gassed, needed this timeout.

@chriz said:

The only people I can think of who would do worse than these refs is the ISU fans

Awesome!

Two straights bad TOs - value the damn ball guys! We could be opening up some breathing room....

@Bwag I"m starting to change my opinion on those whiney cry babies!

This Angry Iowa State fan with thundersticks looks like he's hitting fran in the back of the head repeatedly.. looooool

Lots of contact in the paint. Now, this is basketball. Refs letting the guys play.

Click is sooooo slow

Landon back in

@DoubleDD said:

You have no idea what I would give for a Brannen Green/EJ style ending to this game.

Settle down stop unforced TOS and we win

@DanR The Eagle has Landened

So is RB'ing over-rated?

@approxinfinity one can wish

ESPN needs someone to dress those announcers they have more plaids & stripes than Whizzo the clown.

boooooooooooo

Lol on cue Hilton ref

lucky it is out of bounds...C. Bragg was out of position for the defensive rebound again.

Foul?

WOW LANDEN

ESPN never showed the replay of the block of the year, JJ's high flying fast break stopping top 10 highlight

Dunk it

Throw it down

How can u miss that Landen

@autohawk said:

Dunk it

amen I love Lucas but you gotta finish that period

Banging and playing now. Great game.

Not in Lucas's rim.

ISU dumb only making us shoot 2 FT's this game.

Bahahahahahahahahaha dying

@BShark he dunked it earlier. Dunking is legal now in basketball

Jackson with 4 pts, Bragg 10. Who are these guys?

ISU fans... some female dogs.

@BShark only thing worse is JJ shooting 3s

@BeddieKU23 I wouldn't put $ on that 🤑🤑🤑

They can't stop LL down low, but he sure can stop himself... 12 pts and 7 RBs, but he should have had many more. 4 TOs credited and he's been stripped a few times and missed a few bunnies...

Dunk the BALL your 6'10 buddy

Tait said they asked fans to show good sportsmanship not throw stuff on floor

Wow. I can't believe how much I HATE their fans.

Svi can do that all game against Thomas

Whiny crowd with a limited vocabulary from what I can hear.

We've been able to score at will on the right side of the basket. I guess we're saving that for the last 2 minutes

That drive is there all game

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Tait said they asked fans to show good sportsmanship not throw stuff on floor

Smart PA guy, ISU fans are trash

Svi is just so improved this year.

Give to Burton offense

Nice move by Burton!

@BShark Good plan. Give ISU fans stuff to throw.

That a boy Bragg gets your monies worth.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Give to Burton offense

I mean Lucas or BRagg is guarding him so lol

Nice open field tackle from Bragg

On the jump shot, Bragg was at the free throw line instead of under the rim. So no one to rebound.

time to unleash the junkyard dog

Terrible work by BRagg

ISU fans are 40 minutes of irksome creatins.

Bragg, you're 6-10, you should dominate any 6-5 guy out there.

Bragg wit lead in da ass Burton onlnly 6'5"

It was tough to watch.

A foul passing the ball that's new

Game might be about to turn

Smart foul Monte

@BShark Which way?????

A 5'11" guard with a bad knee getting all our boards

Good call LL nice finish

Lucas makes both teams heads explode!

@DCHawker

In ISU's favour is what I was thinking but then they had a stupid turnover

That basket doesn't count?

Huge shot by frank

@DanR mine too

@BShark said:

@DCHawker

We are more than capable of returning the favor...

@wissox POY

I'm behind I guess

@DCHawker

Amen lol

10-0 run 10-0 run 10-0 run 10-0 run

@approxinfinity I"m getting tired of typing that!

This ISU team doesn't scare me with the three ball the way Hoi's teams did and the good shooters are all Hoi holdovers. I wonder what kind of team they will become under Prohm.

@dylans me too

4 more minutes come on let's get it

16 bench points so far, Much better bench play.

@wissox I'm not. At this point I cannot imagine loving a player more than Frank.

@dylans I knew u were a lil slow!🤔

@stoptheflop said:

2 man bench gogogogogo.

I'm worn out!

@Crimsonorblue22

You are at the game right? Even just standard tv delay you will be ahead.

I'm probably going to stand for the rest of this

@DanR please do, it seems to work!

@approxinfinity said:

Frank Mason = :two_hearts:

Man crush material

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

too many minutes - no one to sub for you - suck it up!!!

@DanR

Nervous pee time for me

@approxinfinity nothing wrong with a man crush on #BIFM :grinning:

@stoptheflop If he has any real BB instincts ive yet to see the hem Outta pod most all the time

@BShark This is the line up now. Coach is only playing 7.

@DoubleDD PHOF!

Wow. Now it's the NBA.

I've seen that not be an AND ONE for KU in previous games. Sigh.

ISU ref again

Before the shot.

2 close 4 comfort

@approxinfinity How was that play any different than LL's shoulda been and 1?

The good guys are still winning.

Yeeeeesssss. LANDEN!

Is Frank Mason the best rebounding point guard in the nation??

Boards huge

Ok Landen, you be our offense, Franks got the defensive boards.... wait, what?

@DoubleDD Yes

@DoubleDD YES!!!

Morris doesn't want the 🏀 This ones over

@DoubleDD said:

At least for the under 6 ft crowd....

POY!

Man, Frank. That was nice!

Huge back to back buckets by Landen and Frank for the 10 point lead. RCJH

@KansasComet said:

Before the shot.

Yep I correct my statement I've seen worse calls to not be an AND ONE for KU

Beautiful drive by frank

Little early to leave. Shitty fans.

Peace out people. Glad you showed up to yell angrily and get beat down.

TOO MUCH JAYHAWKS !!! ISU & Weatherwax suck !!

Whoa. Heading to the exits!

Lucas leads the Big 12 in rebounds?

Clone land is gettin' ready to start squirting tears....

Enjoy these moments. Every win should be a positive!

@BShark never too early

@DanR cops find weathermax

@approxinfinity

ISU fans vs KSU fans. ANGRY CONTEST. Who wins?

Sad sad fan base

@BShark tie

Low post scoring is hot tonight boys

Cone on guys. SHUT UP this crowdfor.the last 1:41

@BShark Depends on if they are playing KU or not.

HaHa, getting to the parking lots a little early. Are they handing Kleenex to them as they leave?

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@BShark tie

double KO.

Anybody have tissue to spare ??? Clone fans have a lot of tears flowing.

Time to go home fans

Fran u don't not know that

@KansasComet said:

@BShark Depends on if they are playing KU or not.

New question: ISU fans vs KSU fans vs MU fans. KU HATRED CONTEST. Who wins?

NOW they want to foul?

And the automatic give up on d!

Gonna have to convert on some 1 and 1s....

Frank still running and jumping well. Nothing serious maybe?

@BShark Missouri hands down.

@DCHawker

NERVOUS PEE

@HawkChamp said:

Season depends on it being nothing

Too bad stripe shirt didn't see that block just before the 3

So does Clones start fouling ???

@wissox said:

Too bad stripe shirt didn't see that block just before the 3

That's legal in ames

Vick is our best FT shooter. Get him in the game.

@BShark Not quite sure what to say to that....

@wissox on Josh?

Those dudes are TERRIBLE dressers. My girl would leave me behind if I looked like that

Thank you Frank.

@DCHawker

I have a nervous tic where I drink a lot of water

Omg frank

Holy crap. I'm jinxing everything tonight.

@BeddieKU23 said:

Omg frank

DAMN IT

I am so :sick: of Hilton Magic.

@BShark I have a nervous tick where I drink lots of Scotch.

Lol your kidding me right

That missed FT was killer, needed to make it a 3 possession game.

lol at fans leaving early ffs

That's why free throws are so important

Why oh why leave anyone open on the arc....

Relax it's in the bag.

Fran going to talk to clones for a game plan

BIFM time

No one makes a run at the 3 pt shooter? Really?

Just not closing this out. Turnovers and more turnovers

@DoubleDD said:

Relax it's in the bag.

Ummmmm

Got to make free throws from here on out. Lets go Jayhawks!

@RockChalkinTexas said:

I am so :sick: of Hilton Magic.

The only magic they have tonight is the disappearing act of the fan base leaving early.

@stoptheflop said:

Make FTs and it's over...

@approxinfinity Nah these men are battle tested We hit a FT & its 2 pod game

@BShark

Relax.

KU got lucky on that possession.

@DoubleDD Can't relax until @DanR sits down.

good foul

Flop dumbass

@Texas-Hawk-10 said:

Big time

With Josh gone we can't afford OT

Josh to the bench when its foul time

New meaning to The Jackson 5.

@BShark said:

With Josh gone we can't afford OT

What we can't afford is to miss the front end of this next 1 and 1....

@Texas-Hawk-10 You MAKE YOUR OWN LUCK

@BShark We killed them in the first half with josh sitting

Fran tying to coach lol

@DoubleDD said:

Fran said FLOOD. That might trigger some ISU fans lol

Alright Tay.

Make this and ice it.

Money.

The benefit of not fouling all game.

Turn out the lights......

garbage call refs.

It's over

Let them shoot the 3

Crickets.

I hate to say it. No not really I told you so. lol

Kansas walking wounded leave Ames as victors.

Ugly and winning

= uggling

I'll take it. You cryclown fans that left are an embarrassment to the big 12.

Protect the coach please

Courtesy of Matt Scott

ISU has 28 points in the paint tonight. ISU has 10 free throw attempts in the game and 8 in the 2nd half.

kubball has 50 points in the paint tonight. KU has 3 free throw attempts tonight and 1 attempt in the 2nd half

Now you can feel free to laugh about my Jackson 5 joke. I just tried to keep it light. I know it was a stressful moment.

Hilton Tragic.

@BShark said:

Hilton Tragic.

Booooooooooo

So we only get the good version of Josh Jackson at home. Alarming you betcha

The magic has left the building.

No interviews?

@BShark Tweet that to Fran...

Good win but we have to hit free ones. Frank and DG counting not getting bonus were 1/4 final minute can't have that from upperclassmen period.

SO JUST LIKE I SAID BEFORE THE GAME ISU IS A GREAT MATCH-UP FOR KU AND KU WILL WIN. AHAHAHAHA UM.....PLEASE NO ONE READ MY PRE-GAME POSTS.

@BeddieKU23 said:

We definitely need him to show at Rupp...

@DCHawker

It was by far his worst game

Hmm, didn't realize people were still playing ice hockey

As any winning team says. Next.

@DCHawker They won't call touchy fouls in a KY game

Night all. Off to watch Rafa at Australian Open.

If Clones fans are this bad I wonder how bad Kentucky fans are going to be ???

@RockChalkinTexas You like Nadal? Nice.

@DoubleDD

UK fans will be more intoxicated.

@RockChalkinTexas have an ok day tmrw! Make it thru!🙏

@approxinfinity BIG tennis fan. Rafa cuter than Oubre by a mile:smile:

Will need paramedics on stand after Kentucky loses?

Waaaaaay of topic but you should see what the Warriors did to the Cavs tonight... Whoopass is spelled with a capital W...

So.... Not being ranked #1 has worked so far :laughing:

@DoubleDD

Yes. Also going to need the Lexington FD on hand to put out burning couches.

@globaljaybird

I asked this before. Is this KU team the Warriors of college basketball. I don't watch the NBA much. Don't know.

@DoubleDD said:

No Draymond equivalent on this team. Or KD lol

@RockChalkinTexas I used to watch more, but I've dropped off this year, saw Murray's #1. :thumbsdown: I like Nadal, Federer, Djokovic, Tsonga and Monfils. Not Murray.

JJ did have 8 boards and 5 assists and 2 blocks. He contributed.

Anybody get twc which is spectrum sports now? Post game

@BShark

KD is something else isn't he ???

@BShark #BIFM is Steph Curry

@DoubleDD said:

@BShark

KD is something else isn't he ???

Yep. Michael Porter might be the closest thing I've seen to KD.

Landen is being interviewed. He's great. Smart man.

@RockChalkinTexas

Stronger ankles though. 8-)

@wissox He did. It was just questionable offensive decision making. He's a freshman, after all. Glad he got to come out of Hilton with a win.

@BShark

I remember the fits he gave KU. He was a one man wrecking machine.

A good road win.

@approxinfinity Murray is a whiner like ISU fans! I HATE Novak.

I like the W but boy were our guys sloppy. What do they think they are going to do next week against West Virginia?

@wissox boards were great. I would not be shocked if he stayed another year.

@wrwlumpy said:

A good road win.

Best yet easily

@RockChalkinTexas Lol. yeah, ok Djokovic can be a bit of a douche. I don't like him as much as Rafa or Federer.

@HawkChamp said:

Come on enjoy the win. You were the one that was afraid that KU couldn't hang in Ames. It happened. Scoreboard.

CyFan is oscillating. :smirk:

Our last 3 was attempted, and made with 11:03 left in the 2nd half. That is mysterious to me.

Svi speaks so well

@DoubleDD the scoreboard is important? Hmm...
Anyway, they have to realize how important not turning it over is.

@DoubleDD Nah nott in my opinion We don't have a glue guy even close to the size of Green. Not sure 🤔 I'd want one with that kind of rep either.

@wissox

Bill flipped the coaching switch to "get out of here with a win mode" a bit early. But I mean it was a win so I'll take it.

@HawkChamp

Even coach lets the players enjoy the win. Shouldn't us fans ???

I'm going to start copy pasting posts from CyFan please forgive me in advance.

**** this team

Well that wasn't as much fun as we hoped

So I don't want to be a complete Debbie downer but does anyone else realize how bad we are going to be next year? "Our 3 Starters" (young, babb and Jackson) cored 4 points combined. We legit might end up 10th in the big 12 next year. Basketball is going to fall as coast as football rises and that's just sad.

@BShark

Be careful you'll be in the dog house.

@wissox getting the ball inside was goal

@DoubleDD true, but playing in April is much better. I like it when we silence the cryclones, but a final four is the real deal.

@DoubleDD

I could post the sane ones but that would be boring. I do agree with a poster that said they'd be so much better with Malou and Lard.

@BShark Yeah but dumber to start with - a lot!

@Bshark, you should put all of those in one post or people will be thinking you're posting those about our team.

@wissox

This is a good point.

@HawkChamp

We all want a final 4, or even a NC. Yet you keep bringing up flaws of this team. Yet this team keeps winning. Remember just after the last game you felt KU had no chance of winning at Ames. Yet they did and did it pretty much controlling the whole game.

Self said Frank got his knee bumped

Evan is great!

@BShark @globaljaybird what GS does in the NBA that we do is stretch the floor and play team ball fellas

@DoubleDD no I knew they could win and I said there was no reason to lose to them.

That said, I'm not going to get too excited, if at all, over a regular season win as I view tourney wins much higher and more rewarding.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Self said Frank got his knee bumped

Please be okay long term.

@HawkChamp we r getting there, tough place to win! Bragg got better

@HawkChamp

Well then don't enjoy the regular season. So what if KU beats West Virginia? What if KU beats Kentucky? Then What ??? Do they still have to many holes to win it all ???

@Crimsonorblue22

Now let's go destroy Shaka next.

Tait said these ISU people hate Kansas!!!

@HawkChamp

Are you looking for a perfect game every time our beloved Jayhawks hit the court ???

@BShark I'm going!!💙❤️😃

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

Tait said these ISU people hate Kansas!!!

Stop the presses

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

@BShark I'm going!!💙❤️😃

Wish I could!

The double last name dude said they got out rebounded and that's why they lost and got up and left

@BShark if u weren't a cat I'd take u

@Crimsonorblue22

LOL

@BShark stop the presses! Oh wise one

@BShark self said Bill (dr) said he thought it was ok

@DoubleDD it's the silly mistakes that have to be shored up. It's amazing the mistakes that a veteran team is making. Winning at Ames, Manhattan and Morgantown proves their ability to win tough tournament games when a lot is riding on it. Last year, they lost at Ames, Morgantown and Stillwater and guess what? They lost in a close game to Nova. Those are the types of gutty wins they have to win.

I don't expect perfection of course, but I do want smart play which is the key to no13, a one seed and a final four.

I'd like to know what is on Lucas's wrist or hand.

@Crimsonorblue22 it didn't seem to hinder him at all.

@Crimsonorblue22

Yeah Lucas appears to be hurt.

@HawkChamp

Look I'm ok with breaking down the game. Yet it seems that is all you do. At some point you have to give credit when credit is do. This was a good win for KU.

Come on say it with me? This is a good win.

@HawkChamp we all do! It's a process, quote Embiid! Josh will get better. Bragg is a project. Remember we lost doke and coleby isn't working out. Game by game. They'll work on everything and hopefully cut down on to's! You come across like this is not fun at all. I don't think you mean that. I hope not. I enjoy your takes.

@Crimsonorblue22

That's it girl game by game.

@BShark yep kinda hurt his hip or leg on his 4th foul, beside his taped hand

@HawkChamp I didn't think so either. Maybe it helped. Gurley just said he banged up his thumb in practiced

Quick thoughts here before I'm out for the night. Nice game bye Bragg with 10 points and 6 boards, got after the offensive glass. Still needs to improve on defense but so do our other bigs, hopefully this gets him going. DG didn't shoot well but had 8 assists. Frank had some big buckets but wasn't great, hopefully his knee is okay. Svi had some very silly turnovers but canned some big 3s when others couldn't. LL didn't get many rebounds for his minutes but finished well at the rim on most occasions. JJ continues to shoot ill advised 3s and never really got going, but he had a big bank shot go when the game was tight. Vick is the new Mari, has silly mistakes but steals us about 5 possessions a game off of hustle. Loved his game tonight he got my player of the game vote. Disappointed in the TOs and Fts that really should've cost us, I think we lucked out that they didn't capitalize on them. Anyone remember the last college game with only 15 FTs, crazy but I liked the officials other than the listen to the crowd for who it's outta bounds off of RCJH.

I noticed coleby wasn't wearing that huge brace just a sleeve type brace. Anybody see? Maybe cause he's not going in

@Crimsonorblue22 I think he had it taped last game also

That tripping foul on Josh really sucks! I hate that call. They just showed it again, Burton just tripped himself over Josh's foot.

@Crimsonorblue22 said:

And I'd consider that a phantom call. Unless you KNOW you saw one guy foul another guy, why blow the whistle? What's going through your head? How have you been trained?

Like the "push off" at the end. The guy tried to sell it, but the ref didn't buy. Nice work! Why is that such an aberration?!

Like I always say, err on the side of swallowing the whistle. Missed calls are forgivable. Phantom calls are not.
