Non-KU Games

The same Alabama team that lost to Iona. There might not be one team far and above the rest this year.
@Crimsonorblue22 They have a top 10 guy coming off the bench at guard, must be nice.
-
Proof the very nature of the game allows a hot team to beat a better team.
Self has the right term here… “margin for error.” Also means “margin for opposition hotness.” You just won’t hear Self use that term because he wants his fellas taking total responsibility on the floor.

Shackleford and Quinerly both had really good games. Holgrem no matter how good he is - -is going to be exposed/bullied in certain situations til he gets in the weight room. If Anyone I think Baylor once again can pose a serious that to the run

Mercy - - -very sweet

@BShark Purdue will be the flavor du jour until someone knocks them off and people say ‘see, we told you about them’.
Was really glad OSU knocked Duke down so we don’t have to listen to it non-stop about that team and K’s farewell tour.

This KU team can get up by or down by double digits against just about anyone I think lol.

Purdue looks very solid for sure. Not unbeatable but very good. Hard to hang with what they can throw at you down low and the Ivey kid is about as good a guard as they have had under Painter.

The ladies beat Vandy today , strong 2nd half - -1st half not pretty trailing by 9 at the half - - - Final 74-67 - -but mercy there were some strange/bad calls it seemed on our Big 6’6 post player just very questionable , BUT we won - - NOW 7-1 on the Season , our only loss coming against # r0 ranked Tennessee , was competitive that game ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

ya I read the article on that today on Espn. - -It said if the two College’s can’t agree on a subistute day then the effected team has to forefit and the opposing team is credited with a win. - -It said overall it doesn’t effect I guess deteriming for Torney
-
I know I will be in the huge minority here probably ad I understand that , and I do understands others positions on it - but I really do wish we would play Wichita State.
I know we really don’t have anything to gain really but I think it would be fun have some interesting match ups and just play - makes us look like the aggorant big brother by not refusing to play, and I agree like maybe possibly a 3 game agreement even play them One at the phog - - one on a neutral and one at their place - -were good enough - -why not?

-
K-State 4-21 shooting in the 2nd half - -just torrid shooting lol - - WSU 5-15 not much better , 44-43 with like 8 minutes to go
-

Absolutely correct and can do it in lightning speed… especially as we start pushing up the tempo!
I am soooo ready for Self to push these guys to up the tempo! I know it takes practice to become efficient… but I think by conference time we will be pushing the pace more than now!
-
Texas Southern gets its first win of the year (1-7) at Florida (6-2). 69-54. Florida was a 23.5 pt favorite.
-
@Gorilla72 LOL Fraudida loses to a winless SWAC team. SEC sucks!
-
Whistle every time down the court in this Illinois Iowa game. Of the Iowa coach throws a Frantrum on every whistle. Easiest the whiniest annoyingest coach I’ve ever seen. Kofi 18 points, 18 boards so far, 4 minutes left. Illinois by 10

getting ready to comment on Kofi - insane beast

Texas Tech took #13 ranked Tennessee to OT and won 57-52. Similarly OU lost in OT to Butler.
Tonight UConn goes to West Virginia, Utah faces TCU & Shaka Smart goes to Manhattan to face Bruce Weber

This team doesn’t have the defensive abilities to play as up tempo as a lot of people want to.

They have no choice but to. The skillsets of our players demand an up-tempo run style, the D feeding off that. We don’t have the enforcer(s) inside to play mostly half-court sets. We don’t. The frontcourt depth and talent is coming next year (and I think Cam Martin will surprise), but this year it’s just not there.

WOW!!! Badgers losing by 22 near the end of the first half to Indiana. Badgers win by 5! Indiana has lost 19 in a row in Madison which is as much a testament to Wisconsin’s prowess in the sport as it is Indiana’s struggles to hold on to relevancy in the game. I’m actually pretty fired up right now!
-
West Virginia holds on to beat UConn despite shooting 12-27 from the FT line. B12-BE now tied 3-3. KState is probably going to lose though.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Never count out a team playing against a Shaka coached squad.

Great Foreshadowing, K-St lost of course.
-
You see Kobe King played his first game in 2 years for Valpo.
-
Way to go Big 12: Texas Tech and W. Virginia knocking off ranked non-conference opponents this week. Texas plays Seton Hall tonight, so another chance for some non-conf cred.
-
Iowa St plays Iowa tonight as well.
Saturday 9-0 Arkansas comes to Norman to play OU
Sunday Villanova plays Baylor in Baylor.
-
@BeddieKU23 Yes. In fact Valpo has two other former Badgers. When I saw they played EW University I had to look it up and was surprised to see it was just up the road from my house. It’s a 15-20 story building in the south downtown area of Chicago right on Michigan ave. The school doesn’t even have a formal athletic department as far as I could see. The basketball page had a notice “Tryout for the basketball team”. They play a schedule of local D3, juco’s and small schools that really don’t have any sort of athletic affiliation.

This Jonny Davis is turning heads in Madison. No foul called on this posterizer on Indianas superstar who scored 9 points last night. https://twitter.com/BadgerMBB/status/1468958623665729536?s=20

Yeah Davis has been terrific so far this year. Looking like a future leaguer
-
decided to watch a little College ball last night turned on the Game with West Virginia and U Conn - -didn’t see much of the game - -BUT did get to see some muggings break out lol
-
That was an ugly game. UConn was without their best player and it made a big difference in the game late
-

your right. I mean mercy there was times it looked more like a football game. So many times bodies crashing into one another , guys stumbling , loose ball handling it was a ugly game for sure
-
So a couple of things. 1st watching Teas and Seeton Hall question so do we pull for Texas as a member of the Big 12 - - - OR do we wanna see the runners to the SEC get their butts kicked lol.
I"ll tell ya Tre Williams , Marcus Carr , & Andre Jones are going to cause some headaches sometimes during the year… Question where did Tim Allen come from ? - is he a transfer ?
-
Iowa St and Iowa going ar it later. Should be interesting
-
Just caught the last 4 minutes of the UT game. Really poor execution by the Longhorns down the stretch to lose by 4…
-
Purdue struggling with Rutgers. Probably going to win, but not a rout either.
-
Big Ten network if you want to see the end
-
WOOWWWWWOOOWWWWWWW RON HARPER HALF COURT BUZZER BEATER CAPS LOCK IS BROKEEEHOLLLYYYYYCOWWWWWWW
-
And yet another Number One goes down.
So NOW who’s the best team out there? Beats the hell outta me.
Baylor has to get by Villanova this weekend. Duke doesn’t play until next Tuesday after a two-week layoff.
-
I think Hilton is gonna be loud again this year after one year off. Iowa State blowing Iowa out right now 42-26 - league is gonna be rough road. you better be ready night in - - night out
-
Rutgers!
-
@DanR said in Non-KU Games:
Rutgers!
So, Ron Harper, Jr, scores 30 points (including the game-winner) to beat Purdue.
His dad, Ron Sr., scored 30 points 37 years ago this week to help his school (Miami, OH) beat Purdue. And eventually won 5 rings in the NBA playing with MJ and Shaq and a few others. (Thanks, ESPN)
Sounds like it will be a fun holiday season for the Harpers!
