Wisconsin offense is the worst I've ever seen it this year. They lost some scorers in Davison and Johnny Davis and the big Crowl has zero hops. Tyler Wahl is pretty crafty around the rim but defenses are keeping him well guarded.
So their offense looks like ours. We'll call this battle..."the mud bowl".
@wissox said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
@BShark If you think defense is ugly...!!
If Wisconsin wins, we finally will take on the Badgers after all these years.
Tech was down by double digits, and somehow cut it to 4 against Ohio St. Good game.

I don't know people, we've shot 1/3rd more FT's than the other team and we're crying about refs just after Jethro says they only do that in the SEC.
Those egg sucking dogs!
5-0...just win, baby
NC State mauled JW
@wissox said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
@Jethro You were just blaming the refs as part of some conspiracy to keep it close!!
Tennessee is still blaming the refs after getting beat 63-38. 'Tucky blamed the refs when they got beat by the Zags 88-72. Arkansas is still crying about the refs, even though Creighton shot 58% against them. There are levels and degrees of ref griping...lol.
@wissox said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
@Jethro I think we'd be screaming and throwing cyber missiles at the refs if they'd call that a continuation against us.
We're not the SEC- we don't blame everything on the refs...
refs are doing everything possible to keep it close. clear continuation.
Burns reminds me of Zion
@Jethro if we make it by today which I said our bad O would catch up with us while you scoffed we will get smoked by either team tomorrow
They just didn't have you as coach and we're all suffering for it.
@wissox said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
Just went back and looked at the last two results. Duke game we had 28 buckets inside the arc, Utah we had 27. Today we have 8.
we've missed 20 layups.
the growing pains of early season games...they really suck! We will improve...lol.
58-49

DuJuan Harris' 2nd turnover of the year, so it's not all smiles and hugs in Jayhawk land.
LMAO. Just a delicious post...
Kevin has to wake up, and start asserting himself. That would help.
Juando 3 maker!
get joe out of there....
MCCULLAR!

lol @ outofbounds call.
GRADEY
Is he going to wear his glasses?
Gardey is going to red and black shoes. Hopefully, the nasty pink ones are retired...lol.
Boom!

@Jethro anything can happen!
What’s your thoughts on it today?
I think your analysis was more wishful thinking than reality. NC State has some firepower with Joiner, and Smith can shoot them in and out of games. But they don't play any defense, they can't run outside of 2 players, and they're sloppy with the ball. And their center looks like his health will be at risk if he tries to keep up with us. Vegas line opened at KU - 8.5, and the line has moved to -9. Bill steps in for the first time this year, so I imagine we'll see a pretty intense effort on our part- not the sleepwalk we witnessed against Southern Utah that has you so concerned.
@kuballin10 said in 11 AM Start, Wed NC STATE:
@BeddieKU23 If they get hot we will lose. If we don’t run them off the line it will be a long afternoon.
We’ve been close to losing to so bad teams so I won’t be surprised with the outcome today.
Offensively we are abysmal.
LOL. That's a good one.
In a word...CRINGE:

Coach Self had an interview that was played on one of the tournaments today - -think it was the Maui , anyways he was talking about how he didn't like not being able to Coach the 1st 4 games but understood.
Paid Grady the ultimate compliment. - -Saying Grady is the best shooter he has EVER been around , that's saying something. -Also talked about how he liked the team and said we had a couple of guys that could get on a roll and carry KU a long ways. - -Then Seth said that Grady is one of the best hardest cutters in the game he has ever seen , how Grady is able to read Screens.
Coach said actually Grady haad already saved KU in two games this year. - -Enjoy him while we got him guys , he not gonna be here long
Gradey = Remy's long lost son...lol.
Great game. Creighton wins by 3.
@mayjay said in Other games:
Creighton seems determined to win the game for a few plays, then they seem to want to hand the ball to Ark to catch up. Impressive if they could 1) clean up the ball handling, and 2) defend the arc.
The Blue Jays should be ahead by 15.

@Jethro Ricky Council I’d rather have than Kev…dude can score and is crazy athletic
@FarmerJayhawk - another why not him here lol
Must've sucked when you lost him.
Creighton/Arkansas on ESPN. Two very impressive teams.
Creighton boxed Tech's ears last night - beat them by 11. Tech has a 7 footer transfer ( Fardaws Aimaq) who averaged 19 points and 13 boards for Utah St, but he's been hurt and hasn't played for the Raiders yet. I think he gets back right before conference starts, so Tech could be a load this year.
I thought Norm did a great job. I'm ready for Bill to get back, though.
@wissox said in Other games:
@Jethro You said "Calimari is the worst bench coach in America!" I said slightly exaggerated. Yours was greatly exaggerated! Remember that coach, the one we affectionately called squeaky? He might have been the worst, but actually, I used to say that about Scott Drew because I didn't really believe in him, until I had to two seasons ago.
@mayjay said in Other games:
@Jethro He doesn't see his role as CBB bench coach. He is an NBA talent acquisition director.
LMAO!
@wissox I believe we had our worst game of the year. We were in a battle for 1st in the B12 when we played that game, and our coach said word for word that the game against 'Tucky was less important than the conference games coming up that week. Did Bill saying that before the game impact our effort? I think it did. Of course, some people tell me I'm all wet for saying that. But, we were looking to play Number 20 Iowa State, then Number 8 Baylor, followed by a date at Number 20 Texas as our next 3 games. And the game was preceded by our triple overtime victory over Texas Tech. So, in that sequence, we played Number 13 Texas Tech, then Number 12 'Tucky, then Number 20 Iowa St, then Number 8 Baylor, and then Number 20 Texas in a row. Run that Tucky game at anytime else in the year, and I think we have a chance to win.
I think them winning that game makes it even better that we won the national championship. AND we took away the all-time wins from them. Tucky also beat UNC by 25 last year. And they lose in the first round. I stand by my statement: Calimari is the worst bench coach in America!
Calamari might be the worst in-game coach in history. Their team is a mess- no spacing at all. They looked totally unprepared for the Zags.
Love watching Tucky get SMOKED by the Zags. Love it!
@FarmerJayhawk said in Other games this week:
@Jethro also guarantees KU a Big 12 contracted bowl. Should mean a bigger crowd.
80% of the B12 are bowl eligible. That's almost unheard of.
Ok, I am so excited that Tenn is getting slaughtered by South Carolina. I am really pulling for TCU to go undefeated and make the CFP playoffs. I think it will help the conference, and will let folks know we don't need OU to be nationally relevant in football. I'm sick of the SEC heads chirping that the Vols should be ahead of the Frogs.
