Tonight's Game vs Tech
-
Perhaps there is something to the fact Self wasn’t at practice for either game last week due to his dad.
Expect a hard fought game but we gotta hold serve at home tonight

I hope we don’t let down after that huge amp-up at KSU. I wondered if it also might have had something to do with Bill losing his dad. If we scrap like we did on Saturday tonight… TT is doomed!
It’s hard to beat us twice in this league. I would think we come amped and ready to kiss some Red Raider butt tonight!
I’m hoping you mean KICK!

I would expect another stressful game. We’ve had enough of them lately. But Allen Fieldhouse has a way of helping out when we need it.
They have been talking how they think the Phog wil be rockin big time tonight. Who were playing - - payback , all students back now. They just think it will be crazy

I don’t wanna kiss no Red Raiders butt anytime lol - -just messin with ya
-
Yeah it should be rockin

This starts the toughest stretch of the season for KU. 5 straight games against teams that will be in the NCAA tournament. We have found out a great deal about this team recently for better or worse. Imo going 3-2 in this stretch would be great but 5-0 would really give us something to be excited about.

This is a payback game, if KU isn’t motivated by thar alone, there’s a big problem.

boy I can only wish I made that few mistakes. - -I’m a constant in making mistakes in spelling , grammer etc. Just having a little fun with you my friend. - - I knew exactly what you meant , no problems here lol

@Kcmatt7 This could be the instigator of @drgnslayr ’s elusive chip. If this team adopts a rallying cry with this much meaning to them and coach it could be the start of something.
-
Virginia can start before us anytime. 13 minutes to spare tonight
-
Stunned ! An ACC game that runs less than 2 1/2 hours !
-
Wow, like everyone else, I’m shocked, there’s empty seats at UNC
-
A week full of a lot of miracles
-
Okay gang, everybody for a third stressful sports day in a row ? As if the K-State and Chiefs-Bills games weren’t enough.
Even today’s stock markets were a carbon copy of the KSU game…down big halfway though, only to eke out a narrow win at the end.
Time to take a deep breath (or five). LET’S GO JAYHAWKS !
-
This team has only one player among the NCAA leaders. Och is 15th in scoring. The team itself has its stamp all over the stats. We live by the strength of each other.
-
Let’s go #Jayhawks
Kick their ass in the paint.
Drive it down their throats.
I’m ready RCJH
-
Energy and no foul trouble.
-
-
Patience is a virtue
-
Did you all hear Dtae narrated the KSUcks game
-
I think Dujuan’s TO was his first in three games.
-
Got on my KU stocking hat, shirt, pants, slippers and scarf!
-
Are you outside?
-
@Zabudda no. Just all KU stuff
-
CB got a haircut
-
Remy!
-
Woooooo
-
Off his foot
-
They are driving
-
Och
-
Where is everyone?
-
Kelce couldnt have got that one.
-
Looks like there is another thread going
-
Exactly
-
Have we been put in time out?
-
@Zabudda ha no I did the same. Figured this would be the game thread but then another got started and

I feel weird talking about a man’s death being used to motivate a team… but I will accept it if it comes our way.
This has all made me journey back to the TRob days… and how his situation helped our team come together and fight. That team completely overachieved!

@drgnslayr Grit and “chips” can only be built through adversity. Grief is a powerful emotion that impacts everyone around you. I imagine we ALL know a little bit about that in recent years as I know few who haven’t been hit with something in the last two years. To me it’s not so much using a man’s death, but acknowledging it has happened and taking what you can from it. After I lost someone I certainly spent a lot of time contemplating lessons learned from her, how she impacted my life, how she’d want me to live, etc. I’ve already heard Self doing the same and if his team buys into that, it has the potential to bring them closer together, make them want to fight harder for each other, and develop them into a better, more cohesive team.
Death is an unavoidable fact of life and if you don’t use it and the grief that comes along with it to help you decide how to live whatever you’ve got left, what was it all for?
-
Well stated! I can tell you’ve been through it. And we also honor those lost by keeping them in our consciousness and with their impact upon us.
Struggle can be a great motivator to higher places. Thank you for using the right words here!

A requiem for the late, great Marcus Garrett…
Bryson goes for 33. Pack goes for 35. Two very different players… different size… different skill set. BOTH would have been limited if Marcus was still on this team!
