    Looking forward to Kentucky at Gonzaga at 6:30. Too bad the Chiefs play at 7:20. I sure hope Kentucky picks up another L

    Gonzaga is massively overrated this season from what I’ve seen of them so far. This isn’t tge dominant team they’ve had the last 5 or so years. Sweet 16 is probably their ceiling this year. I’d expect Kentucky to win by double digits tonight.

    Maybe , I dunno though - -Cal seems to do less with more quite a bit lately - there is a hell of a lynch mob after him



  • South Carolina and Stanford in OT right now in a 1 vs. 2 game on the women’s side. Stanford is going to lose because of a 5 second call, then SC missed both FT’s and Stanford got the rebound and called a timeout when they didn’t have any resulting in a technical and SC then hit both FT’s and ended up winning by 5. This was a great game throughout.



  • Editing please go away early comment.



  • How about the early season schedule for Gonzaga? After today against Kentucky they have a first round game against Portland St. Then provided they win and a date with Purdue or West Virginia, and then probably Duke. They’ll play Baylor after Turkey days are done, and also see Alabama before Christmas. Of course the rest of their schedule sucks.



  • Love watching Tucky get SMOKED by the Zags. Love it!



  • UK has looked decidedly uninterested in playing winning basketball all season



  • UK looks like an entirely different team this year. Just not good



  • Timme doesn’t look like he’s ever seen the weight room.



  • Michigan looked headed for OT against Ohio. Ohio misses potential GW shot and Michigan grabs rebound and Ohio kid fouls him 80 feet from his own basket. Michigan makes 2 FT’s. Michigan fans not too pleased with Juwan Howard. They should be going to OT but the Ohio kid lost his head. 17-8 foul count aids Michigan on their homecourt. Refs aiding ranked home teams against mid major visitors is nothing new of course, but it really shouldn’t happen.



  • Wow, don’t know what happened but Ohio tied it somehow. They had 2 seconds left to go length of court which apparently they did.



  • Find you someone who loves you like Jimmy Dykes loves spinning for Kentucky

    We’d like to see your picture and see if YOU have ever seen the weight room!



  • @wissox To be fair, I’ve seen the weight room and walked right on by.



  • @FarmerJayhawk I’m telling you overrated

    Oscar is in college still for a reason

    Their other talent is not what it normally is

    Guards are young and weak

    Cal still can’t coach - overrated



  • Kentucky is 3-2, hilarious.

    Chaotic season so far, gotta be happy with 4-0 for KU considering. Other decent teams are losing crazy games.

    The meltdown happening right now is fun to watch. They all think Cal gave up after 2015

    I was seriously just talking about this on twitter. 2015 broke him or something. 0 final fours, a loss to Bruce Weber in the tournament, a 9 win season etc

    Can’t forget about the Peacocks



  • We’re 5 wins ahead of Kentucky now.



  • I’m sure they will be plenty good and ready when we roll into Rupp.



  • @FarmerJayhawk said in Other games:

    Boy does he have Calipari doll in his suitcase or what??



  • Calamari might be the worst in-game coach in history. Their team is a mess- no spacing at all. They looked totally unprepared for the Zags.



  • Kentucky came into our house and absolutely steamrolled the future national champs. The underestimates of Cals coaching may be slightly exaggerated. That loss was why I was pessimistic almost til the end about our chances to win it all. I really had no confidence that we could get steamrolled by 20 points and be good enough to win a Natty.



  • @wissox I believe we had our worst game of the year. We were in a battle for 1st in the B12 when we played that game, and our coach said word for word that the game against 'Tucky was less important than the conference games coming up that week. Did Bill saying that before the game impact our effort? I think it did. Of course, some people tell me I’m all wet for saying that. But, we were looking to play Number 20 Iowa State, then Number 8 Baylor, followed by a date at Number 20 Texas as our next 3 games. And the game was preceded by our triple overtime victory over Texas Tech. So, in that sequence, we played Number 13 Texas Tech, then Number 12 'Tucky, then Number 20 Iowa St, then Number 8 Baylor, and then Number 20 Texas in a row. Run that Tucky game at anytime else in the year, and I think we have a chance to win.

    I think them winning that game makes it even better that we won the national championship. AND we took away the all-time wins from them. Tucky also beat UNC by 25 last year. And they lose in the first round. I stand by my statement: Calimari is the worst bench coach in America!



  • @Jethro He doesn’t see his role as CBB bench coach. He is an NBA talent acquisition director.

    LMAO!



  • When cal coaches his babies each year he’s teaching a whole new group of starters how to play. I truly believe if Cal had guys that stayed in school he’d have multiple rings. OF COURSE he’s stated he wants to get guys to the NBA. I’d hate for him to be our coach for that reason.



  • @Jethro You said “Calimari is the worst bench coach in America!” I said slightly exaggerated. Yours was greatly exaggerated! Remember that coach, the one we affectionately called squeaky? He might have been the worst, but actually, I used to say that about Scott Drew because I didn’t really believe in him, until I had to two seasons ago.



  • I hate having to defend Cal because I really can’t stand the guy.



  • @wissox they, his new babies each year, were going to the NBA with or without his coaching.



  • Mercy - watching Arkansas & Louisville - -hope crap Louisville is baad- - -I mean really Bad. - - Arkansas up 69 -42 - -had about 5 breakout jams in a row after Louisville turnover – JUMPIN - - -GEE – -HOSSIE – TOADS



  • @wissox Squeaky won all of the Losing While Trying Harder titles sponsored by UI and KSU.

  • Creighton boxed Tech’s ears last night - beat them by 11. Tech has a 7 footer transfer ( Fardaws Aimaq) who averaged 19 points and 13 boards for Utah St, but he’s been hurt and hasn’t played for the Raiders yet. I think he gets back right before conference starts, so Tech could be a load this year.



  • WOW. Exactly how bad is Louisville anyways ? - with 15:34 to go in the 2nd half today , Texas Tech is up on Louisville - - -45 - - - -13 . - - -THIRTEEN Points in over a half



  • I’m sorry Louisville needs to move on from their everything. Not just the coach

  • One other Cal fact. He and the other sleazy coach Rick Pitino are the only ones to coach three different schools to the final four. That’s just not the sort of thing that coaches who can’t coach do.

    BTW when I looked that up, I saw that Ray Meyer coached two different DePaul teams to the Final 4 36 years apart!

    It sure doesn’t s - - exactly what’s going on with that program ? -Is it just lack of talent - - I wouldn’t think so , not like this bad - -is it Payen’s Coaching or what ? - you talk about a drop off. I mean 20 points now with6:47 to go. – Tech up 58------ - - - - --20



  • Louisville’s NCAA stuff just got resolved so I’d give Payne a pass for this year and a couple of years to rebuild.



  • Creighton/Arkansas on ESPN. Two very impressive teams.



  • @Jethro Ricky Council I’d rather have than Kev…dude can score and is crazy athletic

    @FarmerJayhawk - another why not him here lol

    Was awful man I gave him my best pitch and showed him all KU had to offer still wasn’t enough

    Hunter Ricky Gradey Jalen Kj

    National title team there



  • Creighton seems determined to win the game for a few plays, then they seem to want to hand the ball to Ark to catch up. Impressive if they could 1) clean up the ball handling, and 2) defend the arc.



  • @Jethro said in Other games:

    Arkansas O is awful It’s Ricky council and Brazille doing pick and rolls that’s literally it

    Schiermann hit one from deep and he and Gradey would have been fun

    Yes, I’m frustrated Bill took defense over some of the better offensive players. Way easier to teach a scorer how to play defense than take a defensive guy and teach him how to score

    The Blue Jays should be ahead by 15.



  • Great game. Creighton wins by 3.
