Of course Gradey's and 1 gets wiped off. Those are 3 points I'd like to have.
Unbelievable. Missed defensive rebound only down 5 leads to a 6-0 run of complete meltdown basketball.
Dumb announcer just said if they score here it will be their largest of the game. It was just 13.
Horse hockey
Is that QB from your pro team out there available to engineer a comeback?
McCuller is so bipolar on the court.
Got em right where we want them.
@benshawks08 ISU assistant coach caught that pass.
Did you all know Gradey has parents? They literally show them every single game at least once.
Rumors of Gradey's demise have been greatly exaggerated
Darn I jinxed them.
ISU has made zero outside the arc which is why we're still in this game.
We've only made 2 shots inside the arc. That's not going to get things done
@tundrahok Great! Can't wait!!
Is Dick going to make another shot the rest of the year?
@benshawks08 Box score shows 2 on Kev
Is that 2 on Kev?
Wow, this team lost to Misery by 17?
I don't get nervous til the last minute.
Say it aint so Joe
I'd love to have a reason to fire up my chainsaw. I used it to heat my house for 9 years but not much use for it now. Where should I come?
That's a foul on white. Clear as day
If I had to live in Ames I'd...move
Should have called a flop on ISU dork falling in lane. When a 150 pounder runs into you you don't just fall down.
Wow, nice start for Jwill
Gamethread has been hijacked.
@stoptheflop I enjoy good announcers! Fran isn't one of them and I tune him out a lot. I must say I'm guilty of plenty of stupid comments on these pages too, probably above average if my Ken Pom commenting stats are to be believed.
Pertaining to ISU, a cyclone is a tropical storm, not a tornado, so they can't even get their mascot correct, although I must admit, the Kansas based classic Wizard of Oz probably is responsible for this misnamed storm so we (notice pronoun use @mayjay) Kansans bear some unfortunate culpability in this scientific error.
What sort of great lines will Fran speak today?
"in order to beat KU you must score more"
KU player on floor bleeding from elbow to nose. "The Jayhawk fouled the ISU guy with his nose"
"If my son had played at KU they undoubtedly would have strung together four final fours in a row with a couple of NC's to boot, probably three or even four"
"KU should send Bill Self packing and hire Chris Beard who is a proven winner"
"ISU is not intimidated by the word Kansas on their jersey. In fact history has shown KU is intimidated by the word Cyclones on a jersey"
Hopefully Fran behaves today.
This is the story that caused me to finally subscribe. Looks like a good website.
I met Donny Boyce tonight. I was at a game in Hammond, IN and he was coaching Proviso East at Hammond Central which has a very good team. I was wearing my KU gear and my friend and KU roommate had met him a few weeks ago and Donny was so nice and gushed about playing at Allen Field House. For those not remembering he played at Colorado in the mid '90s and went onto the NBA for a while. He told me AFH was his favorite place to play but he also never won there, the only gym in the league he didn't win at if I understood him correctly. 2 of his Proviso East teammates from when he played there went to the NBA also, one you've heard of Michael Finley. The 3 amigos as they were called won 3 straight state titles and had a state record win streak.
@DanR When I lived in Baton Rouge the fans were always SEC this and that. I would ask them how is the SEC doing in wrestling this year? Soccer? Lacrosse? Hockey? Crickets!
@Jethro SEC fans are whack. In Baton Rouge LSU was playing Bama in football and Bama was quite a bit better that season. Local sportswriter actually wrote a column hoping for a Bama win because then the SEC would have a better chance of winning another national championship. In other words cheering for your archrival because it might hurt the conference.
@Kcmatt7 Wow, we've got a lot of tough games to win before we earn a 1 seed.
@kuballin10 Alabama unlike their football team chokes every once a decade they have a decent team. 1st/2nd round flameout.
@Jethro I hope you're not payton patterson because that post is pretty trollish.
Yeah I was shocked to see Bilas. Glad too. I wonder how many + games he’s done?
Well that was fun. Something came up so I couldn’t watch 2nd half. Sounds like a repeat of the first half. Lots of fouls. Worried me with our thin bench.
Saw some twitter talk about Higgins the other day. He worked a west coast game Sat night and then did a big ten game early Sunday afternoon. Maybe he’s not a bad ref but just tired.
@mayjay I like trips down memory lane like that. I've been in so many places and my allegiances have thankfully not followed me. As a boy "we" meant NY Mets and Yankees and Rutgers since I was a jersey kid. But 7th grade move to chicago changed it to local teams and then KU and eventually Wisconsin and then Louisiana and back to Chi where we are now. No Louisiana fandom thankfully, although I was very proud to cheer my students on while playing at LSU and in the National Championship against Bama. Daughters HS friend Boston Scott from Zachary, LA playing in the Super Bowl!
@drgnslayr Thanks, can't begin watching until 9 and actually have the day off tomorrow so no early wake up call means I can wait for the replay to become available.
@BShark @kuballin10 thanks
Have to watch later. Since I can’t DVR it does anyone know when they put replays up on ESPN+?
Philadelphia didn’t give Wilt much of a supporting cast either.
@mayjay That sounds like what Boston and NY fans would do, but actually sounds like something Philly fans would do too!
@mayjay Another round of the pronoun wars! Spent 3 years in Lawrence and obviously became a huge proud fan. But living in Wisconsin for as long as I did, being able to watch almost all games on TV because of big 10 network and attend games occasionally, not to mention growing up in BIG country, I do have a dual loyalty and have no problem saying we for the Badgers. But I don't always say we, let the record show, and in fact, rarely use we when referring to them here. Maybe some tech geek can figure out how many times I've said we and Badgers together!
@Crimsonorblue22 I didn't say that! "Besides you" I wrote.
@Jethro You're missing my point. Virginia beat Purdue in the Elite 8, you can look it up! So Painter does have a sweet 16 win.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Ah, my research was faulty. 10,000 sounds about right for Texas fans who, besides you of course, only care for football.
@Texas-Hawk-10 Must be a huge lower section because they are averaging like 13,000 per game which isn't bad.
@Kcmatt7 I realize it was a day ago you posted but Indiana is ranked now.
TTech gets their first conference win, didn't realize they were winless. Over a ranked ISU team to boot. Some fans storm the court which is kind of lame.
