Hmm. Baylor is ranked #2 having only played 1 ranked team to date, Illinois who’s sliding currently (lost to Maryland 7-6 at home). They had games canceled against Gonzaga and Texas. They didn’t look great against TCU, pulled away in the 2nd half but wasn’t dominant by any means. KU has winnable games this week before playing Baylor on Big Monday. Setting up a huge game

You can now add West Virginia to the list of postponed games for Baylor. - Their Game tomorrow night against WV -according to their site West Virginia protocol for COVID. - - Huggy said they had several players that had the flu Saturday - -So for Baylor. - - No Gonzaga , No Texas , Now No West Virginia - - -hmmm talk about luck
-
Bryce practiced about 15 minutes with contact. Day to day now. Figure Saturday might be the day he returns
-
Obviously their dog ate their homework
-
Well COVID playing fits. – K-State both Men & Women’s games postponed. – K-state against Iowa State Men called off. K State only had 6 last Saturday

Coach K feeling some back pain no doubt. As of my linking this, 27-12 Virginia Tech is ahead.

Que the game getting postponed at halftime
-
So uh, Michigan seems good.
-
The behemoth in the middle is kinda good

Guys have a question not really as a KU fan but as a College Basketball fan. - -Do you think as a College Basketball fan yourself standing back - -do you think that Texas is a capable final four team?
I dunno just watching them as a college viewer, they are pretty decent , their length , hell they put like 48 up in the 1st half against Tech I think if not 50 haven’t seen the score since I came back in the room. - -Tech is the Nations 5th best defense and they only give up 58 for a game.
Thing is guys is I didn’t realize and or thought Texas didn’t shoot the 3 that well, seemed like from years past but they draining them tonight and this isn’t the 1st time I’ve seen that from them in a game this year. - 8-14 tonight - -pretty decent team
-
TT upsets Texas!
-
-
Illinois getting crushed in the first half at home
-
Illinois got propped up early by that Duke win which has turned out to be not nearly as great of a win as expected
-
It’s sad but I really do get nearly as much joy watching UK lose as KU win.
-
Michigan getting a reality check today

4-8 would have a nice ring to it
-
@Kcmatt7 eww, u sound almost like a ksu fan, they are happier with a KU loss than a ksu win.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 haha I told you it was sad.
I just enjoy knowing UK fans are having a complete meltdown right now.
-
Baylor makes 3s…tough ones, luck ones, open ones
-
Hey there’s Chris Prosthetic Beard!
-
Baylor doesn’t do anything but flop and make lucky 3s
-
Tech has good offense. Shoot bad 2s after watching Baylor drain 3 straight 3s in your face
-
Well at least we aren’t Clemson.
They have scored 3 points and there’s 7 minutes left in the first half. HAHAH
-
Just to update the Clemson game, they lost by 35 at home to Virginia. Ended up scoring 50 points. Miracle

Here are some sweet tidbits , breaks my heart. :
1st time Since 1982 that Duke AND North Carolina have not been ranked in the top 25 at the same time.- -Now you like that , listen to this:
!st time sine 1962 - - 1962 guys this is the 1st time and back in that time frame it was just the top 10 - -so even better but this is the 1st time since 1962 that Duke - - North Carolina AND BIG BAD KENTUCKY 1st time since 1962 ! ! ! ! ! , none of these fools have been ranked AND makes it even sweeter back in 1962 time frame you only had the top 10 - -even better , I probably won’t be able to sleep tonight because of their lapse roflmao. - -just makes me want to cheer and you all know my cheer /quote Soooo ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
What the Hell Louisville? - - Florida St up 40-18 with 3:55 left in the 1st half - - - -DAM
-
An ACC game to finish before 9. Where’s Zion for an interview
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich more proof Bill Self is the real GOAT.
Consecutive ranked streak. Consecutive conference championships streak.
-
Bill is pretty good. Just doesn’t have the dudes this year. Lacking athleticism and some guys just aren’t ready yet.
-
@BShark swear this team is a PG away. But I’d also take an athletic big man.
-

Both.
Though I think Harris is decent as a PG he can’t shoot and I am not sure Self knows how to use him optimally.
-

Yeah we’d be pretty good with Dot and Doke back
-
@BeddieKU23 Hunter Dickinson is very kinda good, no doubt.
-
Better then I thought he’d be but with Juwan coaching I’m sure he’s getting good coaching on how to be a big… He’s a huge human being which helps, has good feet and skill level around the basket.
-
This is what I was talking about last night:
@CycloneMBB at @TexasTechMBB scheduled for January 23 has been postponed. The Conference will work with the institutions to reschedule.

Florida absolutely destroyed #6 Tennessee tonight 75-49.

ya really ugly
-
Duke lost everyone. They are 5-4. Fun times
-
It will be interesting to see where we are ranked this next poll. Who are we playing next again? This team needs a couple of wins, bad… (update)* I just checked, we play OU @ OU, hope we play as if our seeding depended on it because it definitely does at this point.
-
11 am tip in Norman on the road. Spells disaster
-
Absolute must win game for this team on Saturday.
I’m starting to think it is about time to fully commit to the zone and play a rotation of basically 6.
Garrett, Harris, Braun, Ochai, Enaruna and Wilson. Let that team use their length/quickness to jump some passing lanes and launch 25+ threes
-
Everything you just said would break Bill’s core
-
@BeddieKU23 He did this to himself when he loaded this team up with 10 guards.
-
By the way I agree with going more zone and shooting more 3’s. The zone would help KU’s worst defender (McCormack).
On offense though there’s a zero chance Self goes away from feeding the post to focus on a perimeter shooting attack imo. Even after Braun & Ochai shot really well from 3 against Baylor we saw not enough action ran for either to get shots up. Is what it is…
-

Fixed.

Well guess not just KU. Was just surfing came across Duke Basketball message boards and kind of amusing/funny in some respect how their fans posts resemble a lot of KU fans remarks about this KU team - -let’s look shall we ?
A lot of talk about how their team this year is just not that skilled or talented, - - -hmmm sound like anything we have heard ?
Then this : - - How our PG sucks , no true quality solid PG - -Goldwire is not a PG. - - again this bring anyone to mind ? - - ( how about Garrett ) ?
Then we have this : - -people have said me included and true but just funny other schools also - -we have no shows - -players that disappear or just not show up ready to play - -night in - -night out. Like no Braun sighting till last night for awhile - -Wilson gone for a couple of game Monday Night - -4 points? - -4 ? Even Ochai - miss his first couple of shots , there have ben times you wouldn’t know he was even on the floor for the rest of the half.
Some people questioning the Coaching ? - -Oh ya we do - -don’t lie , you know you do - - I know you do - -heard it many many times. the one we always hear IS - - how Coach is so committed to Marcus nothing EVER gonna change ya we hear that one a lot. Just a few of what other people from other Schools are saying about their teams.
Just kinda weird/looks weird to see others in the same boat, especially another blue blood, so guess it’s NOT just us- - -they looking to NEXT YEAR at Duke hoping for the best, latest Bracketology Duke an 11 seed -WOW , they also talking like I have mentioned a few times here. – They too saying they don’t have that GO TO GUY that bucket getter someone who demands the ball in crunch time - -just different - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
