What happened? (comedy appreciated)
-
Excuses? Place here…
-
They didn’t show up, that’s what. There is no way that USC is 30 some points better than us. Anyway, I’m looking forward to the upcoming season when we have a few more multi-dimensional players. It will be nice.
-
It’s 100% my fault. I sat on the wrong side of the couch. Didn’t have my lucky socks on. (Who thought you’d need lucky damn socks to beat USC?) Didn’t turn and watch Mr Robot after we got down 10. (That always helps when I turn the channel for 20-30 minutes). I guess it all worked out, though. If we eventually would have gotten (had) to play Gonzaga, they would have beaten us like a rented mule. Honestly, I think they’d have won by 100. That would be a nice little asterisk to their referee induced perfect season.

curious how much does a rented mule cost ? lmao - -might be interested in trying that myself lol
-
Mismatch.
-
I woke up this morning thinking, “what if we had made 6 of our first 11 shots instead of one?”
Then I went back to sleep knowing we would have only lost by 20-ish.
-
I think we always have problems with March teams that come out all excited. We didn’t match energy. A bad thing became worse, became catastrophic.
-
@drgnslayr I feel like the only time we’ve ever been the team doing this to another team in March is North Carolina in 08.
-
You took the words out of my mouth! I think that game represented a lot of stored up resentment towards Roy for walking out on Kansas… especially after he said he wouldn’t.
I really changed my tune on Roy after he wore the Jayhawk at the championship game!

Covid. Not only for taking Jalen & Dave out but for the disruption it put on the teams ability to practice etc. This is exactly what happened to Baylor and so many other teams across the nation when they came back. Covid pause disrupts your defense, your legs, your shooting, your rhythm and just about everything else. The Eastern Washington game from an analytics standpoint showed the defense tanked. It was even worse 2 days later playing Length and Athleticism.

@jayballer67 Rates vary. Just depends on location and supply and demand.

Ahhh see if you can find me a bargain hard to beat a reasonable price rented mule - - lol

The basketball gods are just out for vengeance. I’m not sure what Bill did to them, but he really needs to sacrifice his first born son or something to get us back in their good graces.

…sacrifice his first born son…
Well, Tyler has used up his eligibility so he might as well be good for something!
-
@benshawks08 You forget about the Marquette game in 03. 70-30 at one point. Watched it recently on youtube. Might have made us a bit overconfident going into Monday?
-
@drgnslayr It’s sad, but I can’t think of one comedic thing to say about that night.
-
@wissox That was really about the most impressive one of all (poor D Wade!). I need time to look up some others…
-
@mayjay Hard to think of too many other blowouts. Oregon in the Elite 8 of 2002 is a memorable one too in my mind.
-
I’m taking full responsibility for this loss and blow out. I definitely jinxed us by angering the basketball Gods for my dishing on Cal and K.
From now and just refer to this as “drgnslayr’s loss!” I’ll wear it like a shame badge just like Roy did.
-
@drgnslayr Well, phooey. If it was your fault why are so many people blaming the coaches and players? Just remember, if it is your fault now then we will certainly give you credit when we win it all!

Never apologize for pooping on Cal and K. If dogging those two is wrong, I dont want to be right.
