It's a 4 point game.

Also losing most of our tough non-conference schedule is what we do. It's all prep for March.

Yeah, I was just saying poo poo to get the thread started. Not surprising this game is close, though I am actually surprised Michigan State is losing, since Arizona usually bonks it.

And speaking of, clutch three.

This game was kinda a combination of freshmen doing dumb stuff and Graham doing dumb stuff. KU's still in it, but I think Indiana has the win, but it's a respectable loss, if it happens.

That's all.

Still want us to play ya this year? :kheldragar:

Not liking that perimeter defense at all going forward, seeing how that destroys Kansas so often in the tournament. But Josh Jackson looks good as hell for a frosh, and Frank Mason is the truth. And IU is my secondary rooting interest, so it's fine.

Still, day after my birthday, and I get this. :smith:

Self likes to start the season against the toughest competition. They've done it for like the past five years. I mean, college basketball doesn't really punish you for losing these early games.

Personally I think he does it to break down his players so they'll listen to him in practice.

I love the hell out of it, frankly. Better than waiting for a month for a game worth a drat.

We're so toast in the tournament, though. Last year's team seemed to be one of Self's first at performing well on perimeter defense, but we've returned to the mean.

This is proof positive of what I've always said that no matter how bad the reffing, you can win through execution, which I'm sure is obvious, but whatever.

I hate this reffing. It's like calling holding every drat down in football. This sport is supposed to flow. That's the entire point of these new rules, is to allow flow.

Seriously? That's pretty stunning that there have only been three. Like stunning enough that I have a hard time believing that's correct.

e: Huh, apparently that is correct. That is absolutely insane considering how many amazing players Kentucky has had over the course of their history.

Might be what's doing it, no one able to do hero ball with that much of a supporting cast.

Look at these ISU fans acting like their dog got shot during most of the game and then leaving with two minutes left and only down 9.

Iowa State, not Iowa. Iowa is much better and based on the ISU games against Kansas and Baylor would definitely win the Big 12

I'm sure the team that couldn't beat Northwestern could definitely beat Kansas.

Mostly I think the Big 12 is butt as evidenced by the Hawkeyes destruction of Iowa State and Kansas losing to Indiana

I realize this is all trolling, but the Indiana thing proves more that this Kansas's team's Achilles heel (as are many a Self team) is at the perimeter, even with Azubuike gone. I'm not sure what's happened to Indiana since but they were red-hot that night, which is why this Kansas team won't make the Sweet Sixteen even though it has the talent to - too many midmajors get in through the power of perimeter shooting. But I'd put Kansas up against a lot of the major conference team any day of the week, even with the shallow big rotation.

Kentucky gonna slaughter them, though.

I hope West Virginia's entire starting lineup fouls out before four minutes are up in Lawrence and it's all because of touch fouls.
