If KSU loses this game, Johnson's 0-3 from FT line (one front end) and Sills missed layup are going to haunt...
KSU has missed 3-4 bunnies...

FAU runs some fun sets
And executes them well...
The turnovers however
TOs keeping KSU close. FAU completely dominating the glass - +14. And, they haven't missed a FT...
Yep. Both teams weaknesses are showing. Interesting game.
Unless Johnson goes off in the 2nd half, this looks like FAU's game...

FAU has very balanced offense. Very effective big. Can shoot 3s. And, can penetrate off the dribble...

Eh... getting away from Sdsu
Alabama had 23 points in the first 20 minutes. 25 in 9 minutes this half...
@Jethro said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
Izzo is such a jerk. " They got lucky!"
Agree with that too - very ungracious interview...

We may actually have to watch a KSU FF. 🤢
I've been cheering for them.
Totally agree. Good for the conference, good for Kansas (the state). KSU will always have an inferiority complex, and understandably so, but give them their moment in the klieg lights.
And it was one helluva game and Nowell was otherworldly...
KSU had control of the game and didn't execute well in the last 2 minutes...

Great production tonight around the league for our guys. Career highs for Och and Doke! Oh Grimes only scored 3
Ochai with great stat line: 27 on 8-14; 6-10. 5 RBs and 3 assists. +18. Led team in scoring and to win over Kings.
@Eric-san said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
Happy for KSU. Don't know about other fan bases, but I cheer for B12 teams after the conference season is over lol
Especially when they beat UK...
Refs not to blame for this game. We gave up 45 points in the second half. We missed FTs (esp. front-ends) and they made theirs. RBs were even at the half - they dominated in the 2d half, esp. with ORBs - ended up with 10 more shots. 3 TOs on Udeh's illegal screens. End of half and late game execution was not typical - hate to lay that on coaching, but....there is a reason HCBS has the record he does in games decided by less than 5 points. Adds up to a loss in a game that was eminently winnable, even if not playing that well...
Seriously, multiple times with Bobby "trying" to execute an end of shot clock play - literally anyone else...
@Zabudda said in Hog Wild Game Thread:
Hit a few treys please.
Other than Joe's prayer, we are 0-6...
Walsh has been killing us...
Uh - this line-up????
We don't need to take contested 3s when they haven't stopped plays inside...
Why bring Udeh out to set a screen 30 ft from the basket. He doesn't know how to do it without fouling...
Just keep working it inside. And, communicate on defense...
Defense has waned since the start - tough to keep that intensity all game...
We're not making any outside shots - but scoring fairly easily inside. I don't think they can guard us...
AR all one on one stuff...
Playing focused, but loose right now...
We're attacking the basket - keep that up...
Wow. Tennessee played its best game in awhile. Impressive defensive showing. SEC has been dominant so far. Let's hope that doesn't extend to the next game.... ;)

@jayballer67 could be, I feel like Dook is about ready to blow this wide open unfortunately
yeah, don't think Tennessee can score enough...
They may not need to score much if they can continue with the physical defense in the 2nd half...

@stoptheflop said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
Ok so the selection commitee has Duke as a 5 seed and Tennessee as the 4, but odds makers have Duke as a 4 pt favorite. I guess we'll see who's right.
And, KU is the slimmest favorite (-3.5) as a #1 seed in the 2nd round - ever...I guess we'll see on that one, as well...
FDU was 20-15 coming into the game. Their best win all year was........actually they didn't have a single good win. Only P5 school they played was Pitt and they lost by 22. Pretty remarkable...
So, the B12 is just 3-2 right now. SEC, B10 and Big East all have much better showings so far... We'll see what the evening session brings...
We complain about our bench production (or lack thereof) - ISU's was 0-10, but contributed 5 TOs and 10 fouls...
@kjayhawks said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
I’m not sure I’ve seen a team go this ice cold at this level. The rebounding game is even ISU has half the turnovers as Pitt. They can’t make nothing, a layup, a wide open 3 or free throw.
This might be the most inept offensive showing in the history of the tourney. 11-54. 1-17 from 3. Under 50% on FTs. But they have 4 minutes to turn it around...
ISU may not reach 40 points...
@BShark said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
Not excusing ISU but this probably messed with them a little.
Notwithstanding, how did we lose to them???? Zero FGs in the first 9 minutes...Wonder the longest anyone has ever gone without a FG???
I get rooting for the Gauchos - I love the double-digit seeds - but tough to argue on one hand that KU had the toughest schedule in the country and no nights off if the B12 lays an egg in the first round...
For the sake of conference rep, Baylor needs to win a couple of games...
Don't know whether Baylor will end up winning or not, but they look way over-seeded. UCSB actually looks like the better team at this point...
@StLJhawk said in Arkansas….:
Yep, I have 14 thoughts…
Creighton
LSU
Auburn
Alabama (2)
Vanderbilt
Mizzou
Baylor
Miss state
Texas A&M (2)
Tennessee
KentuckyWe too will find a way to add our name to their loss column this year. RCJH amigo.
Other than LSU, none of those are bad losses - although losses all the same. SEC was very strong yesterday - 4 -1. We aren't nearly as rangy and athletic, but we are better if we play well. So, need to defend, take care of the ball, and make some shots. Hopefully, experience wins out...
@kjayhawks said in NCAA NON- KU GAMES:
Switching to the Boise Northwestern game these are a joke. Dook or Texas may both win by 30 plus.
Colgate on a 10-2 run - down to 9...
Very strong start by the SEC so far. While Alabama could have a cakewalk to the FF, we need to take care of business Saturday against one of the middling SEC teams (albeit loaded with NBA talent)...
Awful execution by AZ in the last couple of minutes...
Why the F+++ is Juan still in????
Speaks volumes that Rice hasn't played in 20 point game...
Is this Gradey's first double-double???
@BShark said in Norm Roberts Cooks Up Some Bison Burgers Game Thread:
Praying for Bill's return Saturday.
Hopefully he is focused on game planning for Saturday!
4 Hawks in double figures - Juan a point away...
Easy score off Gradey...
@stoptheflop said in Norm Roberts Cooks Up Some Bison Burgers Game Thread:
Jalen has been quiet; he had the quick 9 pts, but only 2 since. 11 pts now
That's fine - not forcing shots. We are much better with scoring balance...
@BShark said in Norm Roberts Cooks Up Some Bison Burgers Game Thread:
Norm is so bad.
Well, he isn't a Hall of Fame coach anyway...
