KU and Apples vs Izzo's Freshman Game Thread
-
Our line is fantastic: 53% shooting; 40% from trey and 93.3 % FTs. RCJH
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Green is an idiot
Who’s calling the kettle Green?
Dremond Green is a moron. He was the biggest thug of them all. This is a guy who picks fights in the league on the court. He’s not the best Sparty rep.
-
Their fans are clueless. I went to their 247 board to congratulate them on a hard fought game. I’m sure I’ll get negged and they will post their witty Dollar Bill comments.
-
@DoubleDD Idgive you more for that post if I could
-
Do we feel the magic KU fans???
No It’s not magic. This KU team is for real.
-
CBS w/us for the upset! Nobody believes in us! Chuck
-
@approxinfinity I don’t watch them much, but Anderson is the coach and pretty much uses same strategies from the 90’s under Nolan Richardson.
Full court press and lots of shooting.
-
@DoubleDD Dg wasn’t going to milk the clock! He was feeling it!

@Bwag I was poking around looking at the Arkansas roster this year and last. Noticed Kingsley is the only big in the top 8 that scores for them, this year and last. Wondering if they’re running 4 out 1 in, and if Mick knew Kingsley was gonna take all the big minutes?
Mike Anderson is their coach, so it’s probably a good guess they run a 4 and 1 line up like he did at Missouri.
-
Sure enough some poster said things about Mason that I won’t even copypaste here.
-
Alright I’m out for the night. Onto the Sweet Sixteen! Rock Chalk
-
We win the first game by a huge deficit.
We win this game by 20.
Pundits will still doubt KU. Oh well…haters gonna hate.
-
@BShark from msu! What could they say bad about him?
-
So who wanted to send JJ to the bench?
-
MSU 247 board. I already closed it. They are understandably too emotional right now.
UConn boneyard board last year was great. They kept it cordial with me before and after the game. I still post there randomly just to discuss hoops.
-
@BShark Yeah no…I wouldn’t go to those boards. You won’t have a good experience.
-
@DoubleDD Not I…Who said send him to the bench? SINNER
-
It’s hit and miss I like getting a perspective of the other team before tournament games.
-
OK so I need 2 more favs, and this is how I’m going to win them.
-
@BShark MSU fans are fickle.
-
OK, I thought KU had a great chance to win this game but, who here saw a 20 point win!?!?
I sure as hell didn’t.
Way to go KU. #Sweet16
-
Still can’t figure how bridges got hurt. Didn’t look like Mason did much
-
I’m sure I will hear nothing from my family members that are MSU grads lol.
-
Or maybe this way. KU to the Sweet 16. Looking strong and fearless.
-
According to MSU fans it was a calculated shot by Mason. Because that’s totally realistic. They also thought we ran up the score, you know, when we put Tyler in and didn’t even shoot the last possession.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 They showed Bridges going up for a rebound or block and he strained his side. He was gripping it when he came down. It wasn’t Mason at all.
-
Wasn’t his hip!

NOthing but respect for MSU and IZZo have been kicking some KU butt. Yet not today.
-
MSU scored what, 3 points in the last 5 minutes? DEFENSE!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 It looked to me like to stretched so hard going up he pulled muscles in his side.
-
@Lulufulu I honestly thought they could. Even many MSU fans picked KU by 10. But I saw their 10 and raised them 10 and thought 20 was possible. I don’t know that I actually picked 20, but come on even Izzo admitted this could get into this range. He didn’t mention 20, but he said if they didn’t play it would get ugly. It did.
Oh btw- Izzo got what he wanted…KU
-
@stoptheflop I thought so too. Couldn’t have recovered that fast though.
-
My KU brethren. Our beloved KU team is finding another gear.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 No…he strained his back or pulled a muscle on that play.
-
I lost all respect for the MSU fan base after the Jackson recruitment. I thought I would find fans that were like their coach but I was clearly wrong. They are as delusional as any
-
He was playing the rest of the game in a great deal of pain, I don’t think there is a doubt about that.

They are the little brother fan base of their state. UM fans just troll them for days.
-
Someone please post Josh’s down the lane dunk. That’s my favorite highlight from this victory. Man’s game.
-
@BeddieKU23 Love Izzo and appreciate his tough coaching style. KU really needed this game folks. This game may set the tone for the rest of the tourney for KU.
-
Oh and @BeddieKU23 hence the thread name. :hand:

Calm down my friend. Nobody has fans like KU fans. We are a special breed. We actually care about the game. Like the inventor and our first coach.
-
I am stoked about Mr Coleby. This guy wants a NC.
-
Josh set freshman record for 23 pts in tourney game
-
Yupp I figured that was a dig to them. Seems how they blame his mother for everything. They are not even worth the time
-
I said KU woul win comfortably by double digits…close enough?

Is that a real record? Wow way to go JJ.
-
-
KU FR record right?
ISU fans care about basketball, probably the only other fanbase in the Big12 besides KU that care.
-
Figured some would know the connection. Josh would be at MSU if it weren’t for his dastardly mother. It’s not like Josh has said himself that he just liked how Self cared about him as a person and that he meshed with KU’s players well in a basketball sense.
-
-
I don’t care who you are? JJ is a Jayhawk. Would love to have him back. Not going to happen.
