UK vs KU in Big 12/SEC Challege.
-
Game in Lawrence…
Great time to get some payback
-
@BeddieKU23 can’t wait!!!
-
So much for a lighter non con schedule!
-
KU will annihilate UK this year!
-
@Statmachine They got it coming.
-
@globaljaybird how’s royals game?
-
I’ll never, ever measure KU’s season success with a single W…but man, this one would feel good!
-
The last few home games against UK have gone pretty good I’d say…
UK won’t be half the team they were last year but it won’t be easy as essentially both teams will be in the heart of their conference schedules when they meet. Still I bet the guys will be fired up for sure.
-
@BeddieKU23 fired up? Putting it lightly!!
-
@BeddieKU23 Saw where we won by an average of 33 points in those home games.
-
UK has the #2 ranked class and it also brings back several good players; it is ranked top 5 in just about every ranking I have seen. KU should win but it will not be an easy game by any means.
-
“this one would feel good!”
No…
this one WILL feel good!
Shouldn’t be an easy game, but you never know when talking about Calipari. We will have the same advantage they had on us last year, with the extra season before college ball.
-
@drgnslayr I like where your head’s at!
-
@ajvan better than where it usually is!!! Ha couldn’t resist!!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Haha, that was definitely there for the taking…
-
I’m so pumped for this game! Tickets are going to be crazy expensive though!
-
Man, this is really amazing. Would love to see Coach Cal walk off the floor at AFH in defeat!
-
Too bad the game is January 30th; I would have preferred a much earlier date when KU was ready and UK not so much…kind of like last year.
-
-
Nice matchup for the middle of the season. Can’t wait. I don’t know what our consecutive home court streak sits at, but it will likely be on the line that day.
-
@BeddieKU23 And Allen Field House will be louder than a fighter jet!!
-
@JayHawkFanToo let’s play them at their best!
-
Who was it that said they were from Maize KS?
-
@Statmachine I said I was getting my car serviced in maize, someone thought I was from there? U? I’m headed there tonight, pick up kid at airport

Nothing spectacular about the class. Slab and Briscoe are very good players and they will earn their high ranking. Matthews is good but he might be a player who is better down the road. Honestly know nothing about Mulder other than he was a shooter in juco. It’s not your typical #2 class but it’s UK so it’s hyped. KU got 2 five star forwards but have that what 15th best class. Seems weird that our class seems to be under the radar so to speak.
UK lost their top 7 guys. Yes they have a few remaining pieces but it’s hard to imagine they won’t be like the UK regular season of 2 years ago as opposed to last year’s near perfect run. You just can’t replace the talent they had
BUT with our home court and revenge for last year it’s hard to imagine the place being anything short of magical
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I am from there but I had no idea you could get your car serviced there?
-
@Statmachine I just go to Firestone on maize rd. like to get steaks from butcher block.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 try the hot links there. That’s the real find at Butcher block!
-
@Statmachine I get their home made sausage, no fat
-
@Statmachine how long since u lived there?
-
I was born and raised there. I left in 1997 when I joined the USMC but I visit every couple of months. My parents are still there.
-
I get the Hot Links every time and make my mom and dad break out the grill. Even if there is a foot of snow on the ground.
-
@Statmachine I will try them! They r so nice!!
-
You ever been to http://www.hankiswiserbrewery.com/our_beers.htm? Its in Cheney KS and worth the trip if you have a couple beer stein’s.
-
Anyone have an idea how much tickets are going to be?
-
@Eric I don’t! If I hear I’ll let you know.
-
Past KU vs UK games have brought around $300 for decent seats and $1500+ for court side. I’ll have to see if someone has a ticket they don’t have a need for…;)
-
So does this mean KU will play Kentucky every year in this thing? I mean who else would ESPN want to see more than the two K’s?
-
@wissoxfan83
Mizzery but that still seems a ways off.
-
@VailHawk not going to happen
-
@VailHawk Mizzou leaving made me angry. Let them them get all the revenue they want from Football with two games at Arrowhead this year. That being said, this sure was the best barn burner I’ve ever seen.
-
@wrwlumpy Amen!
-
I’d like to see us play them. It was interesting last week. I attended two LSU-Misery baseball games and talked with a Miserable fan. He said that he’d heard the two schools were talking about renewing the rivalry. It was news to me, and I doubt it too as I follow what’s going on pretty closely here on my official KU sports news source KUBuckets!
-
@wissoxfan83
I read somewhere their AD was talking to Zenger about meth recipes and casually mentioned renewing the border war for football.
-
-
@wrwlumpy good stuff lump-thanks.
-
And the Bill Self fist pumps and scream was classic. He wanted it so bad.
-
@JayhawkRock78 Right on … that and his semi collapse when we beat Davidson to get to the FF were the most emotion he’s ever shown, other than when Anrio Adams got the ball stolen in three seconds (and other such moments).
