    24 offensive rebounds for Oklahoma.

    That is where they are getting beat - -Oklahoma killing them on the boards. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • KirkIsMyHinrich said:

    @BShark Then it’s fortunate that they are coached by Weber.

    Dumpster trucking TCU right now.



  • My favorite baseball team announcer doing the OK game Jason Benetti. He’ll be a household name by the time he’s through with his career. Has CP, terrific wit, knowledgeable, plays well with his color guys.

    By the way, I was reading through your comments Young’s 46 aren’t particularly impressive?



  • mayjay said:

    @Jayballer54 You are right. Saying he is incredible = calling him God.

    Yoy sure the hell not going to find me calling him GOD. - -I KNOW who my GOD is



  • Bad shot!



  • Dang ESPN3 cutting out at the wrong time.



  • Trae Young is a really good player, otoh in a game where he has 48 points his team might lose to Oklahoma State. We see why he went to OU though, he has over half their shots in this game. That doesn’t happen at KU.



  • omg



  • @wissox On espn



  • ISU and KSU don’t lose anyone important and ISU adds some really nice pieces. Both will in top 4 in the league next year.



  • Trae about to walk-off right here.



  • Best OSU D of the whole game!



  • Tech and OU with 3 losses…excellent!



  • Huge loss



  • Dicky v just found out Clemson has a basketball team. Poor v only thought duke and unc were in the acc

    Same old same old. You think there is a contender and then they all piss down their leg.

    Hopefully KU wins today…



  • @mayjay We are currently living with in laws, long story, but helping them manage old age. TV isn’t always available to me, thus I rely on wifi which isn’t always reliable here.



  • The annual big12 meltdown appears to be happening a month early this year.



  • Did anyone of you all Trae GOD fearing fans just happen to catch what the announcer said when he Jacked up another 30 footer in the end of regulation? – NO ? - -didn’t think so. - - OH one other thing - -did OU win that game? - -GOD TRAE can score 40-50 and lose - -whats the point? - -THEY LOST , - - - -now in all seriousness, putting the chipiness aside , all this game does is probably sit us up for Trae to have another monster night and OU kick our ass Tuesday , gonna to be a war, not sure who we got that will/can guard him/

    Glad he is only here for one year - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • 48 points on 39 shots. 8 assists but 7 turnovers. I don’t know, was it a good game or a bad game?

    Trae has to bust his ass. - -The Big 12 has found how to try and get after him - -get physical crowd him - -doesn’t always work BUT think it has to wear on him. - He get s mugged sometimes, plus he doesn’t have a lot of help. - -38 shots - -un-godly amount - -BUT who else is going to do it - -without him on that team - -Oklahoma be struggling to be in the middle of the big 12. - it was a so so game for Trae, a lot more goes into it then just points. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @Jayballer54 Again, not only do we call him God but every single person who has ever thought or said anything good about Trae Young has gone on record as saying he has never made a dumb mistake.

    You waste a lot of time attacking people for comments and opinions that do not exist except in your imagination.



  • @KirkIsMyHinrich I don’t know about the advanced stats, but it’d be interesting to know what they say about his performance.



  • @wissox Ah, the move north. Very kind of you to do that. Especially if watching sports is more difficult.

    You could just take over completely and make them watch, the way we did with my mom!

    Today or in general?



  • @BShark What if TCU is just overrated again this year?



  • @Kcmatt7 Well in fairness they did just lose Fisher for the season.

    ONE thing I like about you - -I really like your sense of humor - -I like that , thanks for making me laugh, almost every time you post - -thank you. - - IN all seriousness if you call him GOD - -I’m sorry for you, maybe when you meet our real GOD - you can ask him if he is Trae - -then see what happens roflmmfao. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BAB - -OH have a great day

    I’m just baiting an old friend.



  • @Jayballer54 YOU are the one who said people think he is God. Did you forget that? I was being facetious.



  • Who were the announcers for the ou-osu game? One guy crying about KU beating them.

    Robbie hummel who player on Purdue when ku beat them in 2012



  • @mayjay Just a season, we’re going to buy a house within a few months and I will become the master of my domain, well, at least master of the remote! I’m finding actually I can watch every game I need to with my devices, project them to the TV.



  • @BShark Today actually.



  • mayjay said:

    AGAIN - more humor - -love it. - well it’s time to get serious , KU game getting close. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @BeddieKU23 good! Awesome game!

    His conference advanced stats are okay in some areas and meh in others. 105 ORTG and 108DRTG are not great.

    Everyone’s DRTG for KU sucks in conference though, for obvious reasons.

    Also these stats can be misleading. Mitch has a 136 ORTG in Big 12 play!!! He also has the third highest PER for us in league play. God bless Mitch.



  • @BeddieKU23 Really? Hummel did that game with Benetti? Hummel has been doing BTN games. Saw him the other night in Lincoln. He’s really young and pretty good already I think.



  • @wissox He was also a really good player at Purdue. I feel bad for him because of the injuries he’s had to deal with. Hopefully this goes well for him, I think his commentary is pretty decent. Definitely better than a lot of other people that ESPN employs…



  • Well here we are again, right now at this point , here it is - -it is starting to become a two team race - - -KU - -& West Virginia - -same song - - 2nd verse.

    Tuesday game is going to be huge. - - Oklahoma going to be soooo ready , if they want ANY kind of chance in this championship , they just have to win Tuesday.

    Trae will be ready you know that as we were right there in the end for his recruitment - -imagine Tuesday even Noble might actually be loud. -We are going to have to bring our game - -strap it up - it will be a war. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @KirkIsMyHinrich He had some great battles with Kaminsky and Leuer and Hayes at UW. Really enjoyed watching him play. Purdue by the way is scary good this year.



  • Well here we go. - -# 4 - - # 7 - - # 8 - -so far go down today. What a crazy year. I don’t think there is really ONE really dominant team this year in college Basketball. Every team has some flaws for sure, going to be an interesting tournEY I think. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY



  • @wissox They appear to be very good, yes.

    Ha you missed what I said about not knowing the advanced stats. What I mean was I suck at math and ORTG/DRTG/PER are meaningless to me, but humor me at least and tell me what they mean!



  • @Jayballer54

    You did acknowledge that Trae might be the best option OU has. Here are the shooting stats for the game. For comparison, Trae’s overall % on 14 of 39 was 35.9%, he shot 40% from 3, and 100% from the line (12/12).

    The rest of the team shot 2 of 15 from 3 (13.3%), and 3 of 5 from the line. They made the same # of fgs, 14, but took 5 more shots to do it, 32.5% on 14/43.

  • PER is player efficiency rating and it’s one of the better stats to indicate offensive efficiency. Right now his PER is 33.8, which is very very good. It might go down after this game. PER doesn’t consider defense, though.



  • @wissox Mitch’s 136 conference ORTG means he is a TRUE STUD BALLER.

    But on a serious note they try to measure how many points that player would score on 100 possessions. However it is impossible to factor in the fact that Mitch is only really taking open shots and dunks vs Trae Young is actually chucking up a lot of shots and is a volume scorer.

    Mitch’s conference 21.5 PER is really quite nice and more than I expected out of him. He knows his role.



  • @mayjay Ya Trae needs help. - No matter how good he is , you can’t do it by himself , which I think he forces at times and there goes your turnovers. - -Glad he is here only one year. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
