@BeddieKU23 wasted em all on the wildcats.
-
From 16-4 lead to a 10 or so point loss…
-
What a poor shooting night.
-
35% from the field is just unacceptable
-
Yeah we just sucked from 3
-
Och missed his what 10th 3
-
Good Bill Self loss tonight. Fucked around in the first half and blew a double digit lead.
Remy going to come back just in time to ruin the season
-
9 misses for och from 3
-
everyone penciled this one is as an L, but when you can’t hit a shot you aint got a shot
-
Just a waste of playing him. He does not fit
-
Game was lost at the 3 point line. A bit of regression after that KSU performance.
-
Jalen 2-10 and just 3 RBs. No real help from bench to make up for it…
-
He didn’t throw it in to remy
-
@Kcmatt7 the optimist in me says the goal was to get him ready to actually contribute in March. But KU was NOT good with Remy in. The weird rotations seemed to mess with what we’d been getting from the bench too. Where’d yes go?

All of yes minutes went to a selfish player
-
@BeddieKU23 he dribbles SOOOO much.
-
Gonna put 50 on us this half
-
We are going to beat any bad teams we play in the tournament but we can certainly win or lose against a good one.
-
so help me understand - - we went from wishing/wanting to be able to get Remy back - to Remy costing us the game. - - Got it.
-
Whoever said 77 won it. You should cursed Baylor from getting there
-
At least we stay a 1 seed after that Zona loss
-
Another brick
-
bilas is wetting himself…
-
There’s a reason Baylor was the favorite in this one.
-
Rest up for a hell of a week to come. #RCJH
-
Anything but a terrible shooting night and we win.
-
No one seed team in our uni’s this game. We played hard but had no clutch performers.

Gotta step up for sure.

for 
and Svi’s family and friends.
-
All the confidence I had gained in this team since Feb. 1 went out the window tonight.
Last 26 minutes with Remy on the floor we are -29.
One week to figure this shit out.

That’s scary.
-
Well look at it this way I guess - -terrible Saturday. - NU 2 , 3 , 4 , 5 , 6 , & 9 ranked teams all lost today
-
@jayballer67 tough to win on the road.
-
@jayballer67 bad start for the zags too.

just bad all over. we still in the drivers seat. - -I wouldn’t be THAT surprised if Texas beats Baylor Monday night
-
Really it was just a night when we couldn’t make layups and missed 21 threes. Its not gonna happen again likely.
-
Back to rooting for Ukraine in something that truly matters
-
Starters were 20-62. One of those messed up days

Remy Martin wasn’t the issue tonight. Thamba, Sochan, and Brown killed KU for 44 points, almost all of them in the paint and drew a crap ton of fouls on KU. Jalen Wilson was fucking terrible tonight and should not have played 38 minutes. Wilson needs to learn how to defend the pick and roll in a hurry because he left his teammates out to dry way too many times by leaving the roller and forcing the help defender to be the only guy defending one of their bigs rolling to the basket.

Remy didn’t cost KU this game. Jalen Wilson playing 38 minutes with his head up his ass was the biggest culprit tonight.
-
Zags going to lose. Win tonight would have put us in the drivers seat for the #1 overall seed.
-
Well, we lost. Ok. That sucks, But, it really seemed like a bad shooting night did us in. I saw a ton of effort across the board. A few quick triggers here and there, but not horrendous play. Even Big Dave was great on the boards, just couldn’t make a layup, as usual. Surprise! The return of The Dribbler. I still think he helps us at some point. More KJ!!!
-
@Kcmatt7 We would’ve joined the conversation for the overall number 1 seed, I’m sure. As it is, on a national level, the loss didn’t hurt us. I still think we’re the 3rd number 1 seed. Lunardi is saying that Auburn falls to a 2, and Baylor moves up to a 1 seed.
-
We still may be the in the conversation for a #1 seed, but we need to play better in the next 3 games - none anything close to a sure thing. Right now, this sure doesn’t look or feel like a #1 seed team. There have been too many instances of long stretches of just bad basketball this year. We gave up 49 to the Bears in the second half - a handful of times we’ve given up 50 or close thereto in a half. We gave up 67 points in the last 26 minutes (+8 seconds) of the game - outscored 67-44 over that stretch. Against a team that basically has 6-1/2 players at right now. Got dominated in the paint after dominating the boards early. Allowed BU to shoot well over 50% in the second half.
Just difficult to see how this team can win 3-4 games in a row against quality competition, let alone 6. We just haven’t demonstrated that we are capable of doing that. Got whupped by UK, split with Baylor and TTU. Hope for a split with with UT. Is a sweep of TCU likely? An early exit seems at least as likely, if not more so, than a deep run. Would love to be wrong about that…
-
Lost on the road to a top 10 team that had every reason to be motivated. Time to move on. Starters couldn’t piss in any ocean
-
Remy was an issue last night. He does very little that’s actually positive. Pounds the ball and lost on defense. But getting 0 points from Harris and Jalen having his worst game in conference play were bigger issues due to the minutes they played
-
9 points and 1 rebound in 27 bench minutes last night. 0 assists, 0 steals, 0 blocks
-
When we cannot stop inside scoring and also get beat at our own game of fast breaking it’s a 20 plus point loss scenario or a huge blowout if the other teams hits 40% from three. Thank the Baylor Bears for their piss poor shooting which kept their side of the ledger below 100 pts.
-
Och got 27 and didn’t even have a good shooting night. He just needed help and got very little
