one bucket with 10 seconds left in the last 5 minutes...
This team at the end of games....
Another game seemingly in hand...
3 consecutive TOs...just pathetic...
The most experienced team in college ball and we cannot execute at the end of halves and games....
WTF!!!!
FG% and TOs have evened up a bit, which is why this is now a 1 pt game... But every Razorback starter has more RBs than KJ...
@BeddieKU23 said in Lets Dance - Arkansas vs KU:
Mayo has 16 on 6 shots. Get him some looks. Good grief
Non Power 5 portal guy was not supposed to be our main go to guy.... but it is what it is....
Remarkable that KJ has no low post game other than lobs....
9-3 TO deficit...
This is just sad...scoreless this half...
All 5 Arkansas starters have 3 RBs. KJ has 2. Juan and Griffen scoreless...
Shooting 40% and giving up 56% isn't going to get it done...
Griffen zeros for the half - other than missing shots, nothing else on the stat sheet...
How many times this year have we give up about 50 points in a half????
@SlimShaddy54 said in Lets Dance - Arkansas vs KU:
We can't get a stop on the defensive end
We can't get a stop because we cannot keep anyone from easily getting into the paint. Offense is okay, but we are giving up 50%+ on the defensive end...
Apropos of the discussions regarding roster construction, congrats to Eijiofor, Philon, Grant-Foster and Pettiford, who have helped lead their squads to the Big Dance....

This afternoon Wisconsin blitzed UCLA with 19 3 pointers tying the BIG tournament record. They have the BIG reg season record from earlier this season when they made 21 against Iowa. So UW, the offensive juggarnaut now owns both major 3 point records in the Big 10. Greg Gard has completely changed the way he coaches and it's really pretty fun to watch.
Correlation or causation that UW is much better this year minus its leading scorer from a year ago???
@BShark said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:
@kjayhawks Could be a 7 but beating Arizona will help.
I think there could be a fair amount of variability in our seeding depending on how we do in the B12. We are only 5-10 against Q1 and 11-11 against Q1-2. That's more like a 10-11 seed profile. What has us around a 7 seed right now is overall strength of schedule and wins against Duke, MSU, ISU and Arizona. I don't think any other projected seed lower than a 4 has 2 wins against 1 or 2 seeds.
A loss in the 1st round would add a Q2 loss and a losing records against the first two quadrants, probably resulting in a 8 or 9 seed. 3 wins, if the third was against TTU might get us to a 6 seed. That would keep us on the 2 seed side of a bracket and avoid playing the 2 seed in the first two games...
@kjayhawks said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:
I’ll take my usual stance on the B12 tournament, win it all or lose the first game. Although with the way with this team had played if we won, it will be something
This year is different. Performance in the tournament may make a big difference in seeding. Definitely want to avoid an 8-9 game. 6 or 7 seed better for hopes of making a 2-3 game run. Remember that Alabama reached the FF with double digit losses last year.
Best late game execution in a long while...
Guys - let's not celebrate yet. We have to be able to inbound the ball....
We have to make front-ends the rest of the way...
14 pt difference at the FT line....
Can we close out one minute????
Defend the arc!!!
WTF was Juan doing on D there???
11 point difference at the line...
@webjay said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:
BTW, cannot stand the new Capitol one commercial
Any that you do??????
@BeddieKU23 said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:
Our defensive scheme is horrible
Do we have a scheme???
Terrible pass by KJ
UA scored 30 pts in the 1st half with a late 5 pt flurry - they have 29 points in 8 minutes this half....
Nothing from the bench. AJ and Diggy are 0-7 and no rebounds, assists, steals, nada....
Hunt missed two FTs when we were up 14 and 39-25, and it's been downhill since then...
Our defense is atrocious...
Zeke did nothing to challenge the penetration...in two straight possessions...
9 point deficit at the ft line at home...
15-1 assist to TO ratio and we're just up 6...
FTs a season long issue. They are 6-7; we're 0-2....
@jay4ever said in This is The Feel Good Edition KU-AZ:
AZ is not worthy top-25 rank
Maybe not, but they are 4 games up on us in conference...
Philon lighting it up for Alabama...
We are 7-1 assist to TO and AU 1-4, yet only up 1....
UH already has 5 more shot attempts - killing us on the glass...
4 shot attempts on that possession...
2 quick fouls on Uzan...
@DanR said in Lets take the lead into the first TV timeout!:
Looked at Wake and thought, these guys stink. Then noticed their record is better than KU's (maybe tied after tonight though).
ACC is really weak. Wake's only win of note was Michigan by 2 early in the season. Have recently lost to FSU, UVA and NC State...
Junior high ball right now...
Really bad few minutes for Passmore...
Storr is just not a good basketball player - can score, inefficiently, but does nothing else even halfway well...
