@bskeet Whoa, that's when I graduated! Great year to be a Jayhawk!
I'm gonna keep watching, stop chatting. I get too negative and pissed off. Hopefully we come back!
15-5 foul count now. In 30 minutes of game time they've called 5 fouls on that team. The refs ought to be investigated makes me laugh every time I read it. Who's gonna investigate them?
Storr can't buy one tonight.
These no-calls will be featured on Bad Sports Refs.
Can't win against these refs.
9-3 foul count now. Might be closer score if that count was more even.
every time it looked like it was going to be totally hopeless Zeke mainly hits a big 3 and restores some hope.
They're 265th nationally in 3 point percentage, but that number is rising as we speak.
I'll say this Harris makes shots like he's been taking quite a bit.
3 fouls against them in 19 minutes.
Wow, they're fouling us all over. Mayo got pushed out of bounds. He was pissed too.
I hate refs.
We really could have had a shooting foul at the other end.
No No No good shot
@Kcmatt7 Griffen out which is causing some odd rotatations.
These corrupt zebras have called 1 foul on them all game.
We are doing way too much missing
@DanR Oh count me out, that's next game!
Some dude named Pop for their team is 3-3 tonight on 3's but only 33% on the season.
That Baylor-UConn game was ridiculous. It took 2 1/2 hours without OT. Tons of lengthy reviews.
Terrible shot by coit
Harris is all-right
Harris is getting fouled the whole way down the court and they call that.
sounds like we're moving over to FS1.
Unforced turnovers kill. Passmore just stepped out of bounds, then a 3 for them. No bueno.
Crappy start to this one.
Got it on FS2.
Brannen Greene was Solo Ball.
Screen says tip at 8:45. We should make that!
UConn's got a kid named Solo Ball. Which past or current KU player would be named that? Maybe early Frank Mason. I always thought of Archie Marshall as a Solo Ball player way back in the 80's.
Griffen not playing?
We're going to miss the entire first half of our game at this rate.
Roach concussed.
ISU off to a good start against Shakas boys. Unbelievably it's on ESPN+
@bskeet That's a great story!! What year was that?
@BeddieKU23 I'm watching this game on FS1
It's really hard to get a whistle in Storrs I imagine, especially after Mt. Hurley erupted last week and they need a win in the worst kind of way.
The only drama in this one is will it be done by 7:30 so we can watch our game uninterrupted?
Amazing that's the thread title I was going to use!
@DCHawker "KU is the only undefeated team". That's all that really matters!
League getting embarrassed so far tonight.
I once wore a Duke shirt proudly after they beat us in the 91 championship game. My grandparents retired to the triangle area and when Grandma got ill she spent a lot of time at Duke hospital. Grandpa became a Duke fan, also became friends with James Worthy who worked at the cafeteria there (he never let the facts get in the way of a good story!) and bet me a T-Shirt on the result of the game. I lost the bet and honored Grandpa by wearing it for a few years I guess before....? I'm not sure what happened to it.
I'm really most proud of the 2022 championship and winning the FF that most were saying the stars were lined up for Coach krybaby's swan song. Beating him in 88 was sweet as well. I think that's when he was a great coach and recruiting was different and he could really prepare those teams every year to make the FF. 7 times from 86 to 94 they made the FF and of course as I referred to finally got his ring.
The annoyance of Duke is present in the Laettner shot. Greatest shot ever we hear. Well it was nice, but really how was it better than Mario's, or Keith Smarts or the guy at Villanova or the double clutch 3 just seconds before by the Carolina guy? Christian hit his in an elite 8 game. I can't even remember other game winners to get to the FF, but there must be many as 4 teams make it every year. Tyus Edny, first round game buzzer beater in which his UCLA team doesn't win it all and freaking misery moves on and maybe makes their only FF ever. I'd say Tyus' shot is just as important and memorable.
Too many teams in the main conferences leads to not enough TV channels to show all the league games shoving more and more games to ESPN+, peacock, etc. So tomorrows headliner game between Iowa St and Marquette, #5 v. #6 is on ESPN+.
Hunters scoring, FG%, 3%, FT%, RB are down. His TO's, steals, and fouling are all trending in positive rates compared to the past. Could we get him back to 42% on 3's and 72% on FT's like he was at Michigan instead of 32 and 62 like he is this year, well that would help a lot. His rebounding this year dropping two per game over last year is a bit of a concern as well. He's huge, he should be grabbing boards like the past. The negativity associated with the Duke game will haunt him at a lot of B12 arenas in the months to come. He's going to need to toughen up mentally for that.
@BShark A little concerned about Mayo. He was amazing early on but his games against elite competition have been a little concerning. Hoping he's really not just a very good midmajor player.
@FarmerJayhawk I can relate as my mom has that.
@stoptheflop Thanks for filling in the blanks with the games Wednesday. Somehow I missed Baylor-UConn and ISU-Marquette. Wow, what a day.
@Crimsonorblue22 I haven't heard they have injuries, but don't know for sure.
@nuleafjhawk Everybody's a little bit different. My dad is 92, mom 88. Thankful for them. Dad has dementia. Hideous disease robbing a brilliant man of his mind.
Oregon surprising Bama yesterday and Houston loses in an upset of sorts finishing 4th in their tournament, yikes. Future opponent Creighton avoids UCONNs fate by winning the 7th place game in the same tournament.
Lot's of good games coming up this week. The B12/BigEast challenge starts. BIG starts league play this week with mid week games the next two weeks. ACC/SEC challenge takes place this week. BAMA/UNC and Auburn/Duke are the headliners on Wednesday.
@FarmerJayhawk Yeah, my oldest is 32!
