East Region looking like it will be the toughest. Man there is some teams in there that can beat anyone
-
UConn got a brutal draw

You know ball. The people saying cake walk are insane.
-
Crazy parity this year. 2 seeds have more losses than any time I can remember
-
Is it weird I’d rather play Gonzaga than McNeese

Nope, McNeese is really freaking good.
-
Samford is not a good matchup for us. Of course
-
Not showing the KU team. Of course we get a deep and great shooting 3 team.

That’s most low major teams though.
-
UNC got a WALK
-
No OU
-
No Cream Abdul-Jabbar
-
West looks easy. Our bracket’s top teams have had recent losses.
-
B10 overrated.
BE, Mountain West underrated.
-
Samford goes 11 deep
Leading scorer avgs 22 mins a game
Their top 7 guys shoot 33% or better from 3
-
Depth in the tournament is overrated
-
-8.5 point favorite
-
Samford only played 1 P5 team and that was Purdon’t. They lost by 53, it was their first game of the year. Lost by 10 to VCU as well
-
They are 7th in 3pt fg% and make 10 per game.
KU opens with the lowest spread of the other 4 seeds.
-
KU is 8-5 as a 4 seed in History of the tournament
1-1 playing in Salt Lake City
-
Samford ranks 8th in the country in 3p% at 39.3%.
McNeese St is 7th in the country at 39.4%
Purdue is 2nd in the country at 40.8%
Hope we are ready to guard the 3p line…
-
Seth Greenburg needs - to shut the hell up. I would love it if we made a run- - Hey Seth let me holler at ya
-
Where’s Midwest regional? Indy?
-
-
@rcjhdraft we’ve got some good history in detroit
-
Ok call me crazy but I like our bracket, if Dickinson and McCullar play and I think they will we could play 3 games or so
-
Any chances we have at making a run entirely depend on how healthy McCullar and Dickinson are. If those two are reasonably healthy, KU should win despite getting the highest NET ranked 13 seed. If Dickinson amd McCullar are both still injured or don’t play, it becomes significantly harder.
-
If this team has any dawg in them I hope they hear all that garbage that Seth Davis was saying and take it
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich any data on 3pt percentage on neutral courts
-

It’s only broken down into home and away games. 43.4% at home, 34.9% away.
I actually feel pretty good about this game assuming our guys are healthy. McNeese worries me a lot more.
-
Generally speaking 3pt% goes down in the tournament, too much pressure.
-
Self just said Hunter has practiced the last 2 days.
McCullar he was a lot less specific about…
-
Hunter will practice full contact tommorow.
Mentions playing in the altitude in Salt Lake might play a factor…
-

Samford’s only neutral court games this season were their conference tournament games.
In those 3 games, they were 10-24, 6-21, and 5-18. So they were 21-63 for 33.3% on neutral courts this season.
-
McCullar is supposed to practice tommorow but it’s not definite, if not Tuesday
-

Seth Davis is typically one of KU’s biggest cheerleaders.
-
I love he same guy that said we have probably the best starting 4 in America is now talking his bunk, the only ones seriously that I would worry about is Purdue - – Tennessee , not worried about Gonzaga at all , they do not impress me , especially if Dickinson and McCullar are healthy - -I think they play a long as KU as a team plays
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 thanks, much lower than season average
I like our chances to advance
-
If Hunter is and McCullar at 90 I feel very confident with our chances to advance to second weekend
-
KU women receive an 8 seed and will play Michigan in the 1st round. If they win that one, they will likely play JuJu Watkins and USC in the second round.

9:55 pm time on TBS. Kind of brutal

Too old for this, I’ll sleep and check the score in the morning.

I actually think we got a decent draw, 3 point % does scare me a little. Not remotely worried about Purdue, if they don’t get the whistle no chance of getting out of the first weekend.

8:55 central so that helps but still sheesh
-
@FarmerJayhawk worse for Samford
-
Proud of the Ladies - - 7Woems Big 12 teams- - 8 Men’s Big 1tteams-- been a good day - -Leet’s go Ladies
-

You aren’t that old. I know you aren’t.

Last game of the night on Thursday? I like it! We’ll have the whole day to worry about it while watching (hopefully) a bunch of upsets during the day.
-
Am I old enough to remember when we had to buy a newspaper on Monday to see the matchups and we only found out the game times maybe on Tuesday?
