Well pretty sure Duke’s 24 straight appearances in the NCAA just went right out the door. After losing today they had their chances drop to 10 % another streak out the door
-
BRUTAL loss at home for UK. Now 5-13
-
1st time since 1974 that Duke & Kentucky has been under 500
-
Kentucky was actually really lucky, normally a 30 % 3 pt shooting team BUT tonight like 12-22 somewhere in there could of been a lot worse - -5-13 - - -YaZaaaaaa
-
As bad as we are (by Kansas standards) at least we’re not 7-8 or 5-13.
That last inbounds play by Kentucky actually made me laugh out loud. 4.3 seconds left and you don’t pass to your point guard who is wide open at half court. Instead you pass to your big man who dribbles slowly a few times before picking the ball up and throwing it to the Arkansas player who dunks it as time expires. They didn’t even get it across half court.
Pretty good Tuesday.

Been a really good afternoon/night 1st Duke gets beat at home by Norte Dame - - - Then Kentucky pulls the bone head play at the end of the game gets beat at home - -Now K-State getting their ass handed to them by Texas at home - - oh yes lovely night

@BShark we need to beat Texas. We can do it, we have the technology. We can make our team better than it was before…
-
@BShark In all fairness, they’ve played a lot of tight games. And almost any other coach in America with that roster almost certainly has 8 or 9 wins.
I can only imagine what Bill would be able to do with Sarr and Washington. Offensively and defensively.

Saadly I have to agree. – I think Jimmy Dykes has made a good point. He said multiple times and it true just seems come the last 4 minutes of a game when they are close , they just can’t seem to close it out.
I think now it’s playing HUGE in their heads, and the pressure from the Kentucky fans , you know those kids read/listen to that stuff and they are roughing them up pretty bad - -JUST HAS to play games in their heads. - -Almost like that final 4 minutes something bad starts to happen and it’s like - - well here we go again. - -you have to figure a lot of their problem is at their PG - -Askew re-classified he still supose to be a Senior in High School and he getting thrown into that type of situation on such a big stage - like some have said doesn’t seem fair.
Have to wonder though too if there isn’t finger pointing going on one player to another friction at this point - -who knows.,
Having said all that, one big thing the fans are worried about is - - - How soon or if KU catchs them for all time wins , you would think there would be more important things for them to worry about right? - -So bottom line , I do feel some what sorry for the kids - - but bottom line it’s Kentucky - - sucks to be them lmao gotta love it - - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Ya I was going to post about that , yet I don’t blame him , MERCY he was hot BUT that 4th foul on McClung was phantom - where was that foul coming from and actually even his 5th was like - - Whaaaaaa. I actually thought he was wanting to throw a haymaker on the officals his assistants had to keep him back - -crazy scene

I sure would take Mintz on this KU squad.

Frank is starting in the NBA tonight for Orlando.

So excited for him
-
@BeddieKU23 heard he got hurt?
-
Looks like it, only played 4 minutes…
-
Jesus, the guy is finally - and let’s face it, he hasn’t been in the most ideal situations - playing well and gets a chance to start, and he gets injured.
-
WOW WOW MERCY MERCY. - -Sunrise out of Wichita beat Oak Hill Academy from ( Mouth of Wilson , WOW as we all know and they announced on the radio wrapping up High School basketball scores tonight. - -A LOT of BIG TIME STUDS come out of Oak Hill -way to go guys. - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Have you noticed how NO ONE is afraid or intimidated by Kentucky this year?- - Today for instance Kentucky 7 points in 8 1/2 minutes in the 1st half losing to a 11-10 Auburn team on Kentucky’s home floor. - - Kentucky is really lucky they not getting blown out. - -If Auburn would quit turning the ball over GOD only knows what the score would be. - -Kentucky 2-15 from the flor
-
Baylor continues to duck more difficult opponents. Didn’t even blame covid this time lol.
-
OU choke job, epic WVU comeback.
-
Wow , Iowa Hammers Michigan St by 30
-
MSU has quit on Izzo
-
Welp , looks like Kentucky & Duke have finally found somebody they can beat. - - Kentucky wins by TWO at home against an 11-10 Auburn team and Duke beating up on a weak NC State team that’s 8-8.
I kind of thinking these guys are wishing they could play a Season full of these guys lol
-
Creighton is on the verge of blowing the doors off Nova.

TCU and Texas Tech has been postponed due to the winter storm that has the entire state of Texas under a winter storm warning. This is also the first time I’ve ever experienced a sub-zero wind chill in Houston. It feels and looks like a Kansas winter here right now.
-
Sub-zero wind chills are the norm for me this time of year but that is crazy it reaching Texas

This is normal for the Panhandle up near Amarillo and Lubbock, but tonight is supposed to get close to an all time record low in Houston tonight.
-
@BShark They’ve played the 102nd toughest schedule according to Kenpom… Weaker schedule than even Gonzaga

Just be safe & stay warm. - -I was watching the Weather Channel this morning showed shots of Dallas & they also had a reporter in Louisiana , they were sayin - in Louisiana that if people were waiting for them to come clear the roads might as well keep on waiting cause it wasn’t coming , nature going to have to clear it off as they have no equipment. makes sense as they normally annually only get 9/10 of and inch he said.
Unfortunatley I have a friend who lives in Houston that is Homeless , mercy don’t know how he is making it in times like now , just you be safe I’m sure roads are not the best there. - I know the was saying Dallaas was expecting another big storm Wednsday.- - Woke up here in Topeka this morning to a reading of minus 8 - -& Wind Chill of - - -Minus 28 - and snowing take care buddy

There’s widespread power outages here and most electric companies websites have crashed because of people trying to find out when their power will come back on. I’m lucky that I didn’t lose power at all, at least so far. Most people lost power between 1:30 and 2:30am when the brunt of the storm came through and had thunder snow with it.

My sister lives in south Louisiana and she has about 1” of ice. Not great

when I was watching the Weather Channel this morning it was snowing it’s butt off in Louisiana they were reporting maybe 100 yards sight it was snowing hard. Think they were reporting from like Monroe maybe ?

File this under “things could be A LOT worse.” Jalen Johnson opted out of the rest of dook’s season to prepare for the draft.
-
Is there a good reason he was only getting 21 mpg?
-
Read abo ut Johnson. If their Season hadn’t already went down the ol toilet - -It has now - -mercy K how’s that feel
-
Inconsistent effort on D, especially since he was being forced to guard 4’s and 5’s which Johnson just looks like a big guard to me out there
-
Florida St. blew out Virginia last night by 21 points.
-
Wonder what will become of Duke once K retires? I think he’ll be around for another year, that’s it.
-
Virginia really didn’t look good. The defense wasn’t bennett-esque at all
-
Watching Michigan State for the 1st time this year against a so so Purdue team. - - Now I see why Michigan St has struggled this year - - they kinda suck little green Apples, not a typical Michigan St/ Izzo team - - weak defensively
