KU VS Lon game thread
-
we should’ve won this by 30. oh well… a win is a win.
-
Texas beat KSU by 20?
-
Hope we play better next game or it will be a blow out.
-
I don’t think we’ve given the staff enough credit for recruiting Devon. After having 2 pgs that were senior studs we forget they weren’t 5 stars or studs as freshmen.

Yep
-
It must take a lot to coach up vick
-
@BShark the refs know they are most the reason its not a 12 point game. I’m telling ya’ll that’s my conspiracy theory. Watch two ranked teams and the team that gets up up double digits gets no calls for a good few minutes everytime the past few years.

ISU beat the worst team in the league by 6.
-
Pulled it out? Remember the alamo… our 5’ 6" guy should dunk it on Lon
-
Can’t bring this kind of game to Ames Saturday.
-
@BShark at osu
-
No magic
-
@BShark SO??? WE know how tough it is to play up there. We will need our A+ game.
-
Not sure Doke and Dedric can play together, and you certainly can’t play them with Garrett.
There are still some rotation issues to sort out.
-
Ain’t that the truth.
-
KSU did its best 80s big east impression with 47 points.
-
Melvin Weatherwax incoming. Be careful any Jayhawks fans traveling to Ames.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich that guy is scary!
-
@kjayhawks They were without 2 starters. But still happy for that outcome.
-
Embiid looks like he’s still growing. Is that an8 foot rim and children he’s playing against?
-
@justanotherfan I honestly think they could be good situationally, the first half they were decent together but Dedric missed several bunnies. Doke looked tired and outta shape. Which is to be expected after missing time.
-
He had a solid game last game 23 and 9 in 20 minutes.
-
@kjayhawks Dedric just plays better w/out him. He passes really well, though. Need to figure it out.
-
Any box scores yet?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 If Dedric was a better shooter from deep, they would be a deadly high low combo.
-
Win by 7 at home and must make FTs. Charlie Moore has got to make FTs and they have got to shut teams down. Let’s see if we drop again for not winning by 20. TT wins on the road by 3 at WVU.
It’s a win.
-
It was good to see Grimes get going. Dotson is our best player. Poor game by Lawson. Charlie had some horrific moments. I’m not sure why we can’t all our players going at the same time. One good game…just one would be nice.
-
@truehawk93 both those teams looked bad.
-
KU is the only Big 12 home team to win tonight. The road to the championship will require others to hold serve, except against KU. Saturday will be interesting.
-
@KUSTEVE Lets do that in April.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 As usual KU played down to OU in the PHOG. This is always concerning.
I have tix for the game in March at Lloyd Noble.
-
@truehawk93 For sure. Ahead by 15 at half. Should be a 25 point win at home.
-
@Big-Clyde52 I predicted at least 12 pt win. Hell, I would’ve taken a 10 pt win tonight.
-
@Big-Clyde52 this team requires a lot of patience to follow. we look great for spells, and then we suddenly stink.
-
@KUSTEVE I predicted a bit of a breakout for Grimes. He’s way overdue. I hope he keeps rolling.
-
@truehawk93 I predicted a 6 point win. I also predicted we’d score 82, so not very close on the actual score.
-
Yep a win is a win. We just came out flat in second half. No excuse for that, especially at home. I was hoping for a team with killer instinct, but have thrown that hope out the window. They will mostly all be big time grinds.
-
@KUSTEVE Well, I don’t remember who always says on the board that when KU reaches 70 pts first, wins. It’s been fairly true almost every game.
-
@truehawk93 we will count on u to bring us a victory!
-
Gawd it’s going to be a long season. But if we can win this way, I can only hope how we win after they get things figured.
-
We took some really quick, dumb shots at the end! Blows me away how dumb we can be. Never turn down a layup but these were pretty far out. Your clock is your friend. I drilled that in my teams when they were little.
-
@truehawk93 we want a long season! Need to figure some chemistry out, get more 50 50 balls. I thought we talked better. Play D before your man catches the ball.
-
Grimes talks so fast he could be an auctioneer
-
@Gorilla72 I would be surprised if they came away Saturday with a win.
-
OU was ranked friends, they are missing Mcneace as well. I’m seeing them finishing 4th-6th in this conference and having a good shot to make the tournament. A good portion of why it was close is shooting. We shot 19% from 3 and 41% from the floor. Dedric was a huge part of that with finishing 6 for 17 and 0 for 3 from distance. Late he had 4 straight off balanced fade aways and missed some easy ones early. He had a strong finish to the first and a good stretch in the second but 13 points off of 17 shots isn’t effective enough. He now is shooting 4 for 23 from the outside this season, its border line a turnover at this point. Everyone wants to complain about Garrett, he’s 4 for 21 and has about 10 wide open ones a game if he wants to take them. I thought Garrett played a solid game, he took 3 shots, had 5 points and 5 assists while playing solid defense. Vick had a decent floor game, he just had too many crap passes and I’m sure that’s why Self had him out and Moore in late. But Moore couldn’t hit the free ones and can’t defend or rebound like Vick can, I’d say that probably doesn’t happen again unless Vick is fouled out.
-
@Woodrow It is a huge game for this early in the season. If we get a win in Hilton, we should win our next 4 after that, then get ISU at home. A 7-0 start would be outstanding.
-
The home games I picked, weather permitting, nova, isu, texass, KSU, Wvu, Baylor. That’s before we knew tt and ou would be good and wade got hurt. Baylor last home.
-
@Big-Clyde52 Its too early yet to put a ton a this game or any other for the next few weeks. I think you’ll see Self trim down this rotation to the normal 7 or 8.KJ and Moore will probably start playing very sparingly from here on out. Moore is like Greene used to be (maybe worse), if his shot isn’t falling he’s a liability out there and of no use in every other aspect of the game.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 if you’re worried about the weather, I’m pretty close to you and maybe interested in taking tickets. Obviously I would pay you something for them.
-
I might be able to get a ticket to tt.
