I’d love to piss off Vegas.
-
Boom… Get Dave back next game. I like the second half (which is all I saw Lol).
-
Night all. LOVE YOU
Just following the announcers advice…
-
I really wish Braun could stay a starter.
-
Nice leg shot to end the game. … Hot take lol
-
Yep. A road win is always good.

He can’t shut up. He’s a moron.
-
@truehawk93 I find his commentary to be magically delicious.
-
@Bwag he needs to tell them before the game!
-
@DanR Maybe it’s better to let the starting point guard dribble out the clock than a seldom-used backup center.
-
Many are sensationalizing the whole mess. Keep stirring and it will smell worse than before…I guarantee you he thinks he has exclusive rights to that game.
-
@truehawk93 Yep, and frankly I could care less. KState started a fight. Next
-
His lil trip around town had us miss mosses 3. Less talk
-
@tundrahok Our point guard lost the game dribbling last month.
-
-
You know looking back…has anyone wondered why in the hell was Silvio that high and in the corner, dribbling the damn ball at 6-9 like Dotson?
Done…moving on
-
@approxinfinity I know. I am sorry. Still sticks in my craw.
-
@approxinfinity Always after me lucky charms… “But who does #2 work for!!?”

Maybe we can start shooting on our own basket as time expires to shake things up a bit.
We wouldn’t have to worry about any going in if end if game tonite is any indication.

Rock Chuck, KU.
-
Okie St a lot of meaningless buckets in the end and a couple of walk on’s in.
Over all pretty dam good defensive performance. - - Oklahoma St 28 % overall from the field – 11 % from 3 point = =pretty impressive numbers.
Christian leading Scorer 16 points - -leading rebounder 9. - -Marcus 7 points , 9 assists and 8 rebounds pretty solid - Doke only 6 points but 7 rebounds and 5 blocks
-
@jayballer73 yeah our d was good. Okie St can’t shoot, but our D was really good second half.
-
Osu thx for showing Weber some class at the end of the game!
-
-
Best thing about this win tonight was…
A: Braun breakout
B: A decisive win in Stillwater, finally.
C: Undeniable evidence supporting 4 guard.
D : Balanced team win.
E: _________________

@bskeet E: All of the above!!

Crazy to think of how much of massacre this game could’ve been had we not fell a sleep in the first half for the final 8 minutes going scoreless in almost 6 of those and just hanging out the last 4 minutes. May have an 80 to 45 type deal.
-
@FarmerJayhawk I honestly think Self has known that he would be at a 4 guard lineup by the end of the year after about 3 games. But he was seeing whom out of Braun, Moss and Tristan was going to emerge and not giving them the spot til it was earned, we have played more with 4 guards tho we usually started 3.
-
@approxinfinity my disgust with Fran went down considerably after he said that Love for KSU showed more effort in that brawl than his previous 3 years in Methattan.
-
@bskeet can win w/dot sitting on the bench for mins
-
Exciting to see last night, 17 point first half lead dismantled. Dotson & Doke on the bench & Braun makes a critical bucket to end the half. KU comes out with a 20-3 run and says GOODNIGHT. Dotson was on the bench for most of this run which is encouraging to see that Garrett and the gang could run the game out of contention without their leading scorer on the floor. Very impressed to see them win in Stillwater. 4-0 in road games in conference play so far. Looking forward to Tech coming to town this weekend.
Look at these impressive stat lines
Doke- 6 points, 7 boards, 5 blocks
Garrett- 7 points, 9 assists, 8 boards
Braun- 16 points, 9 boards, 2 steals
-
PER’s from last nights big win. Braun continues to be the 3rd best player on the team in conference play. Hope he keeps his starting spot, UPS has earned it.
OVERALL
Conference PER’s

My gosh Ochai.

He has been abysmal. Really been a letdown this year from what his expectations were. I doubt it will happen but hopefully he can find a spark coming down the stretch.
-
When we have outside shooting going we look really good. Our defense is so good that we can also withstand some bad offensive stretches. They are getting better.
-
Braun, any questions? Self starting Braun over Moss is a great sign. He’s a freshman, surely some big ups and downs to come. But getting shooting into the mix, playing the 4/1, is our only chance to be NC contenders.
Losing Dave for a couple of games may be a blessing in disguise.
If Self goes back to starting Dave and moves Braun to the bench … well, I’m not going to assume that for the moment.
It’s not just who finishes. The first 8 minutes can be as important as any time in the game. As is anytime spent overlapping Dave’s and Doke’s PT thereafter.
The question now becomes whether moving Agbaji to the bench to start the game is the right move. Might be a good to try. A change … any change … can create a different dynamic. Without a fully functioning Agbaji, we are likely in real trouble (related to any chance at tourney progress). That would mean Moss starting instead. Not the long term trade out we want, but short term, to create some spark, it’s worth a shot.
-
Self said after the game he would continue to start 4 guards even with Dave back. Whether Braun keeps it, who knows but he’d be crazy to take him out of the lineup after yesterday
-
Don’t think we should discount the defensive dirty work Ochai has done this year. His offense definitely needs to come around but I don’t think that’s really his focus. I think next year his offense starts to flow a little better like Marcus has done this year. I think this team’s strength is their defense and we should play to that strength.
-
Also, Enaruna isn’t there yet but that kid has some defensive potential. He is just so long! I foresee many blocks, deflections and steals in his future.
-
@benshawks08 didn’t he have 5 boards?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 He did but I feel like all the rebounding numbers from last night are a little inflated. Sooo many bricks from both teams!
-
It’s gotta be Braun instead of Moss in the 4-1. Leave Ochai. Defense gets better / a hot 3pt shooter.
-
Just curious as to y’all’s thoughts, but Big Dave needs playing time to prepare for next year. If he doesn’t start, he will only get time as a sub for Doke, when HCBS goes with 2 bigs or when KU is in a blowout.
Doke needs to play for his value to the team and his Pro development.
IMHO, Self is starting 2 bigs to get Dave court time. KU needs him next year and starting him is his development time.
-
Excellent point about Agbaji’s defense. He’s a permanent starter on this team because of what he brings at minimum defensively.
