@DanR Just enjoying it because it's a big game I'm sure.

A must to play the bench when keeping a lead the way they have. Now 2nd half he can play tighter if needed depending on fouls
I think we can get away with playing Joe and Bobby more and it also benefits the team keeping Juan fresher. I like seeing Bobby play more in place of Juan instead of next to him. Plays better to their strengths.
@DCHawker said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:
So, we've had 9 players score - 10 pts from the bench. Since when has that happened????
Since Bill decided to play the bench a bit. I like it, keep guys fresh. Of course part of it with the bigs tonight is foul trouble.
@DCHawker said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:
Both team have better shooting % from 3 than inside the arc...
Just a typical Big 12 game lolol
We scored like 7 points in 6 minutes then 3 straight threes
INSANITY AND CHAOS WOW
Absolute madness.
OH MY HIGGINSED
@BeddieKU23 said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:
His 3rd foul
broadcast is saying 2nd because they changed one
Zach into the game because of Higgins lol
Tang tech definitely paid off lol
The Higgins effect. He giveth and he taketh.
blahhhhhh
@DCHawker said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:
Give KSU credit. They have 5 more TOs and we've hit 6 3s, but they are keeping it close. They are a solid team...
Both of these teams are very good. Conference is loaded.
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes it's why a lot of schools stayed away.
Gotta make fts woof
That was a good technical to take tbh
Less KMac jumpers plz
Oh my we are definitely getting home cooking tonight lol
Got it to work before the under 12 timeout...yay
@DCHawker said in Sunflower Showdown Redeux:
ESPN box score has Cuffe in the game with an ORB????
They make weird mistakes a lot in real time that get corrected later.
@benshawks08 Yeah very sure it's some kind of issue on my end.
First time in awhile I'm having major issues with ESPN+ may need to try another device.
Ah this is going to be the game thread, didn't realize. I'll post here.
@benshawks08 said in Top 10 Match-up On ESPN+ Game Thread:
Still got bilas.
Yeah that tells me they can't flex for sure. They know it's a big game so they at least put good commentators on it.
Shame they couldn't flex it or something. Woof.
We good.

The betting line feels like a trap. My instinct is to hammer KSU.
The way we've played at home this season... yikes.
I do however think KSU is due for a major regression and could easily drop 5 or 6 of these final 10 games.
Yeah I really don't know. Some models still don't love KSU but they are tough and just keep winning. Their top 2 is really nice and the roleplayers can all actually play.
Jerome Tang 2 KU :folded_hands:
@wissox generally it's immediately available.

@Kcmatt7 People forget how good Ty was. Especially as a defender. Bill does great work when he has a guard that can just get by guys.
@Kcmatt7 Agree we do not want to Neptune this, or even Scheyer it for that matter.
:red_heart: :fuel_pump:
Coaching matters a lot, btw

@Kcmatt7 Otz would maintain the #cultureoftoughness too.

@BShark ugh
I'd never want to! Promise. I've even soured greatly on Nate Oates.

Kid is ridiculously good
Looks like he is just gliding out there. He's fast and quick, like Dotson was.
@Kcmatt7 If you swap the coaches last night I think Kentucky wins pretty handily.
No truly great team this year either.
@dylans said in 2023 Transfer Portal:
@BShark Won’t Cal be pretty expensive to get rid of for a couple more years due to his “lifetime” contract? UK fans are talking more 2024 being his last season. (The little chatter I’ve seen)
Seen a fair bit of talk for after this year or next. Common thing is certainly that people who matter want him out.
Yeah it's very early for this but I wanted to mention something.
With Calipari potentially on the way out and us needing a 4 I'm actually very interested in Chris Livingston. I don't care about the stats, he is a dude and would do well here with better coaching.
@jessejayhawk said in KU-UK Game Chat:
What was the final Big 12 vs SEC score?
7-3. Ifs/buts with TCU really should have been 8-2.
@dylans said in KU-UK Game Chat:
Could finally see Earnest’s potential. I can’t wait for him to put it together. He could be special
All mental. Believe it has been mentioned before but his high school had a couple D1 guards as well that they played through and they really didn't ask him to do much of anything except run around dunk and rebound. Big step up to D1 and Self's system.
I think both Udeh and Zuby will be very, very good before they are done at Kansas.
KJ had 17 on 8-10 shooting. Pretty incredible against Kentucky's athletes. Bill is such a good coach and KJ is special.
