That timeout was very effective
Crap call on Oachi

@benshawks08 said in Boomer 2 Game Thread:
Uncalled travel. Three points for ou.
Finally something good.
@approxinfinity yeah which is really a mystery given that we have seen the bench players can bring it on other days.
If Dave has an injured foot then Remy must have an amputated leg based on the way they are played.
It sucks to feel good that we are only down by 3 at the half. At home. To a team with 10 losses
We are just not sharp or quick.
Finally
One team is fired up.
Errr. That was not it
Need some stops.
I would hope that we would be improving at this point in the year. But I don’t see us doing anything different that we were 4 weeks ago and now coaches seem very well prepared.
Crap. Double crap
Our chaotic passes are not helping us
We are slow today
Yay!
Christian Braun with 1 attempt and it was forced at the end of a shot clock. Wilson one tip.
Can always count on an early CBS game to bring out our worst
Are we a jeckyl and Hyde team or what?
Really anemic offense so far
Also, this game is not an isolated event. This seems to be the way the B12 crews are calling things. The tech game that we lost was similar. The KState game we won was similar. And non KU games are being called this way too.
It is not the way the other conferences are officiated.
Yes they let both teams assault about equally.
I don’t like that kind of basketball.
Reminds me of a really shitty regional final I saw I think it was Pitt vs Memphis. That game was in the 50s. These teams deserve better.
If that game is called like a normal basketball game we win by 15-20 because they foul out 3 with 7 minutes left in the game and we shoot about 10 more free throws.
The biggest choke is the officials that must be choking on their whistles.
Just like the end of the first half. Wheels flying off the wagon.
Don’t expect a foul.
So, this is just like the end of the first half.
I hate the way the big12 officials are officiating games this year.
As I recall, part of the reason they shot 60% was because they had their way with us in the paint (dunks and lots of offensive rebound/putbacks).
I remember when we were that kind of team. We just don't have the personnel this season.
Matchups matter in March.
We are not without flaws, but so are others. The flaw revealed by UK was simply talent and athleticism. The good news is that no team can make that adjustment in March. They will have what they have. The bad news is the the NCAA committee will now know where to find our kryptonite.
Nonetheless, there aren't that many teams that can bring the talent that UK brings. We should be able to get to the second weekend before any kryptonite teams are in our path.
I think if we grade teams on depth of talent, KU has to be one of the best if not the best. The ISU game sold me on this.
Kentucky and Gonzaga may be the teams with the best talent in the starting 5.
Agree it should be a pretty wild tourney
My son ('24) went to elementary, jr high and now is in high school with Derrick Sangster ('23) who is getting more and more D1 attention.
Wash State contacted him last year as a sophomore. Now it looks like a bunch of WCC schools are recruiting him. I don't know what his interests are... but sure wish KU could build a bridge to this HS (Archbishop Mitty) and their league for recruiting -- It is very competitive in athletics (FB, BB, women's sports) and the speech and debate team has a string of California state titles going since 2015.
The second half wasn't the ceiling for this team, but it's a lot closer to their potential. It was a good time to put things together.
Hopefully, this gives them confidence that they can deliver a knockout to almost anyone and they can work on consistency at or near that level.
That second half was what I thought this team was all about. I hope we can see that team play more often.
God. What has happened to our offense?
Can't get to 60?
Really?
Officials are increasingly trying to influence the games. Not just ours. It's epidemic.
Harris's turnover to assist ratio will not be good.
If this game gets to 70 it will be a miracle.
where's Dave tonight?
Score looks good right now, but ISU had a 9 pt lead with 10:45 left in the first half.
Good outcome in Waco.
TT - Bay will go to OT I predict
Rebound Rebound Rebound
Let's keep them at 0 as long as possible!
6 - 0 start to the second half is goodness.
can we tie by halftime?
Not scoring 70 with all the scorers we have is disappointing to say the least.
