Pivotal Game
-
@Woodrow #1 and #3 are the basis of my prediction. Throw in the “frosting” of Bruce Weber as their coach, I’m sticking with my score.
-
Kansas leads 196-93
-
Kansas leads in Lawrence 89-35
-
Kansas leads in Manhattan 78-47
Kansas leads in Kansas City, Mo 27-11
Kansas leads on neutral courts 29-11
Largest K-State win: 27 points (96-69, on 1/20/1979)
Largest Kansas win: 45 points (90–45, on 3/10/1995)
Longest K-State streak: 5 (72–74, 82–83)
Longest Kansas streak: 31 games (1994–2005)

@Woodrow We have scored 87 points or more 6 times (so far) this season. Once against (then ranked) #9 Michigan St, once against #5 (now #1) Tennessee. I think we can score.

@kjayhawks Geez, thanks. Now HEM is going to go on a rant about how Jamari failed even against a little guy to hold position under the basket.
-
@mayjay Ya it was a risk I was willing to take, Heck a WV player decked a fan that pushed him a few years ago.
-
@Woodrow I will be pleasantly surprised if we win. 3 freshmen in the rotation and, as you say, no senior leadership to calm us down and take over down the stretch. I fear our younger guys will get sped up and rattled. I hope I am wrong.

KU 71 Silo 67.
-
Hawks 75 Hicks 71.

KSU going strong. Heard they were going to yell fbi instead of f you know what. Saw some pics of fbi jackets.

This game is a big prove it. And by that, is Garrett actually a negative due to how poor he is at shooting? Does the offense show up again with the added spacing? This is a big question that needs answered going forward

It’s really one of the biggest games that they’ve had in the Octagon. They have a chance to put KU back a full 2 games in the second half of conference play, that place will be crazy with how bad we have been on the road. They will smell blood in the water even more so than usual in a game that is always their super bowl. It’s a huge week for them with us on Tuesday and Baylor on Saturday, they have a chance to get a grasp on the lead with no company. Haven’t seen a Vegas line on the game yet but BPI (joke at best) gives KU a 56% chance to win.
I want to correct one thing you said, “They will smell blood in the water” should read:
"They will smell blood in the sewer…: there, all better.

@KUSTEVE thats only 4! You said 5
-
@Bwag or feedlot, pig sty stie?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 works…
-
@Woodrow My apologies. I’m an idiot.
-
@nuleafjhawk how bad is work today? Maybe everyone is iced in at home, better yet, in a ditch. No harm!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Actually, the only one who’s said anything so far is an OU fan…the Pussycats are uncharacteristically quiet.
-
@nuleafjhawk Most of the KSU fans I know are blowing up social media, like it’s their 17 championship in a row. But I give them a good chuckle that they only won by 7 with us down 2 starters and turning it over 23 times.
-
@kjayhawks I guess they do have reason to rejoice. Only one more win against us and they will be down an even one hundred (196-96) games to us all time. Whoo hooo.
-
@nuleafjhawk Yep, I like it’s one regular season game your seniors are now 1-8 vs KU and your head coach is 3-14. The sun shines on a dog ass every now and then.
-
Really not much we can say.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 There is always plenty to say lol

You know, losing “The Streak” wouldn’t bother me at all if we got beat by a really good, dominant team. That won’t be the case this year. The Big 12 is not anywhere near normal strength and every game we’ve lost is because - - - WE LOST - - - we haven’t been beaten or dominated in one single conference game this year except at Iowa State. When you have 20+ turnovers and are a poor free-throw shooting team, you are giving away games. Just giving them away. The streak was fun while it lasted. OK, it’s not over yet, but things aren’t looking good. Here’s my plea to this team - just quit playing like wimps. (no offense to wimps everywhere, most of whom would play harder and smarter than these guys) Hustle once in a while. Don’t make stupid turnovers. Look at the Kansas uniform you’re wearing and pay homage to the ones that have been there before you and really care about the Crimson and Blue.

Until kstate realises beating ku is not winning the NC, they will never make a Final 4.
