Texas Tech vs Villanova
-
It’s just the lack of consistency that kills me.
Nova is the better team but has been bailed out badly
-
@BeddieKU23 Smart money says will need Mitch and or Silvio to be good if not great aswell
-
Not a horribly reffed game. Techs problem was that they couldn’t score at all inside. Nova forced them to shoot jumpers and they couldn’t hit them.

Silvio will be important, I wouldn’t be surprised to see Mitch as ineffective as he was yesterday. He can’t match up with Bagley
-
Think we’ll play some zone?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yep!
-
I don’t see how we zone without being forced into it by fouls

Inconsistent it was, but tech didn’t make enough plays or rebound enough. Usually how we lose…

@mayjay You caught me! I was in a restaurant with my folks, a rare treat, and two of my kids plus a brother, so the TV in the corner gave me no perspective on what was actually happening. I just saw the foul count suddenly change with the score. That’s the only part of the game I saw. BTW, others apparently were watching on this thread and didn’t like the officiating either.
I will watch because as I acknowledged KU has received fairer treatment from officials against Duke, 1986 and the end of Maui notwithstanding!
-
@wissox I didn’t like the officiating much, especially with the amount of inside contact allowed. But TT played worse than the refs reffed. I just think if there was a change in how the fouls were going that the refs really don’t give a crap about TBS’s ratings in the F4! And if I thought the reffing was the result of manipulation I never would watch.
-
@Kcmatt7 How many times did a TT guy turn down an open 3 receiving a pass, and then dribble up and shoot a contested 2 with no one even trying to get the rebound? Even those shots with 1 minute left, no one but no one was crashing the boards. They looked like a freshman team in the first scrimmage.
-
@BeddieKU23 I don’t either- -the real thing that scares me the most is the match ups on their 2 big’s -we play Doke on Carter just pray he doesn’t get in quick foul trouble - -do we play the 2 big’s at times? -Doke & De-Sousa?
-
I wonder what is the line in foul differential for the KU - Duke game…I will guess 8?
-
@JayHawkFanToo looking at 10-12 - - I mean ya know - -any 50/50 calls their gonna get

Na we are just going to let someone in the post get theirs and pray we limit everyone else

@mayjay TTU looked awful offensively. Didn’t looked fired up at all outside the first 1:30 of the game. Played way too slow. I was disappointed tbh

Stage was too big. Looked like us against oregon
-
@BeddieKU23 I’m down to see some junk defenses in this game. Throw the kitchen sink at Duke.
-
I’d be down for a triangle and 1. I’m not a fan of doubling because carter and Bagley are great passers. We usually double when we know someone has an advantage
-
Graham has to shoot well and doke has to control the paint with boards
-
@Buster-1926
I’d really like to see us man up Bagley with zone principles… I think that’s a match up we know we are vulnerable with but can make it difficult for him. He scores almost exclusively in the paint
-
@BeddieKU23 if Duval is in, whoever is guarding him should come off of him to double down. At least that’s what I would do.
-
Good point. You have to guard him tho he turns it over a lot and is their best passer so despite his shooting woes you don’t want to make life easy on him.
I think if doke can stay on the floor and Devonte controls the tempo we have every adavtange

Dude absolutely can’t shoot. Still you don’t want to leave him completely wide open.
-
Can’t leave trent open and can’t bite on Allen’s pump fakes. Otherwise we should be able to turn them over

Trent and O’Connell are the guys that can easily get hot and beat us. It would be typical if it was O’Connell since he is like a 10mpg guy…
-
I think Carter is a better defender than Bagley but not nearly as good on offense.

What’s the chances doke has 2 before the under 16
Depends on the officials…Hopefully they are neither B12 or ACC
