Guys NOW this looks more like the OLD KU earlier in the year. - -SOLID SOLID WIN
-
What happened to Zuby? I missed the update
-
He went out and never came back. Big guy didn’t play.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in KU-UK Game Chat:
@KirkIsMyHinrich has anybody heard if miles hurt his knee, like serious?
I read he was out pending xray
-
@Crimsonorblue22 hopefully not
-
Some other guy was out too. From tcu
-
Okay here comes the KSU Wildcats into our zoo.
-
Kentucky was 22nd in the country in total rebounds coming in, Kansas 92nd and 208th (JESUS) in opponent rebounds. Kansas outrebounded Kentucky tonight.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich said in KU-UK Game Chat:
OSU won 82-60. B12 wins the challenge 7-3. Would have been 8-2 if TCU was healthy.
Weren’t the Clones down 2 guys today as well?
-
@RockChalkinTexas I think I saw him with a boot on his ankle
-
Continuing on the “Kevin is this years Dave” comparison, Kev gets gimpy, focuses and has a helluva game.
-
@approxinfinity 12 boards ain’t too shabby
-
Caleb grill from Maize was gone for isu. I don’t even know if he was there.

He just took the ball away several times. Just ripped it out their hands. He clunks shots all day, then hits the crusher 3 when the game was on the line. The dude is clutch. Remy flash back.
-
@jessejayhawk you talking Zuby or Miles from tcu? Miles looked like his knee. Zuby did roll his ankle.
-
Oscar only gts TWO offensive rebounds- – & 9 total rebounds - - thats pretty good
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Zuby
-
Kj had his rear right in oscar!

KU 34 - Kentucky 29
-
Good guys win again (finally)
-
KJ had 17 on 8-10 shooting. Pretty incredible against Kentucky’s athletes. Bill is such a good coach and KJ is special.
-
Could finally see Earnest’s potential. I can’t wait for him to put it together. He could be special
-
@BShark That was a really quiet 17. Had no idea that he scored that well until I saw the box score
-
What was the final Big 12 vs SEC score?
-

All mental. Believe it has been mentioned before but his high school had a couple D1 guards as well that they played through and they really didn’t ask him to do much of anything except run around dunk and rebound. Big step up to D1 and Self’s system.
I think both Udeh and Zuby will be very, very good before they are done at Kansas.
-
@jessejayhawk said in KU-UK Game Chat:

7-3. Ifs/buts with TCU really should have been 8-2.
-
@BShark Thanks. I’ll take 7/3
-
I’m super glad we play Tuesday instead of Monday. Heal up Kev!
-
@BShark Really pissed me off that Mizzou was one of the 3
-
They didn’t score off the 2 offensive boards!
-
Huge factor in the game Kentucky FOUR TOTAL offensive rebounds AND Kentucky - - - -ZERO - - NADA - - ZELCH - -2nd chance points -KU outrebounding Kentucky 34-- -29 for the game
This just shows how baa ass this team can be when they really get after it
-
Another cool little nugget just heard. - Lat time Kentucky was held to 5 or less offensive rebounds ? - - - -in 2008 -and they have the Nations leading or at the top rebounder this year 13.9 Oscar - -tonight Oscar - - - 9.
-
Huge game from Kevin really. That 3 was a dagger. But his D was way better. They had more fun tonight. And they look alot better when they are having fun
-
@cragarhawk and boards!
-
McCullar out rebounded Oscar. Let that sink in. I hope Kev is good to go for Tuesday.
-
I don’t think Grille or grill from isu played in their last game.

sore back. he could’ve made a difference today.
-
Udeh is so well spoken. You can’t tell he’s a freshmen. I would guess he’s pretty smart.
-
It’s funny that there was a bunch of chatter about Yesufu playing more before the game.
Turned out to be more Rice and Udeh and it was great to see. Either way the bench has to continue to get minutes like they did tonight to have a chance in March
-
@Kcmatt7 did he pretty much just shoot an air ball or get blocked and that was it?
-
First got to get this out of the way. Can refs count to three, as in when a big body is in the lane on offense you count to three and if he’s still there blow the whistle and give the other team the ball. Oscar’s a great player but he just camped in the lane tonight, would move to the edge of the lane, but never leaving. Goodness I was yelling the whole time.
Glad i watched the tape!! I know Kentucky is down this year but we needed this win in the worst kind of way.
Wilson was Wilson, and whereas the other day we were basically thinking only Jalen knew how to score the basketball, we rediscovered some shooters and scorers and rebounders and surprise surprise Udeh made some nice hustle plays keeping balls alive.
Back to refs. You just can’t allow a foul count to get to 7-1 12 minutes into a half. Don’t remember specifics except a moving screen that wasn’t against Gradey. But wow, refs just don’t like to reward our team with foul calls. 18-14 tonight against us. Sometimes when refs realize there’s a discrepency they try to even things out and then piss off the other team.
Nice to see KJ Adams bounce back against a big team.
I’m feeling good about KState on Tuesday. I really don’t think they’re the #5 team in the country and I’m guessing we show them Tuesday that they’re not.
Just read part of the game thread and I realize I wasn’t the only one frustrated on the 3 seconds not being called.

I’ve never been able to tell the difference between UK and KU.
One kind of sounds like yuck and one kind of sounds like kool

Self called him smartest player since Dave. Like outside of basketball smart.

I’m wondering if it was honestly LESS focus. Finally got out of his own head.

@approxinfinity said in KU-UK Game Chat:
Bobby cut himself while shaving with a machette?
He’s had that bandage on a lot this year. Gotta be a monster zit.

What a pleasing game. Going in I thought our cold streak could easily continue. But as the game progressed, i never thought we’d lose. I’ll take it.
A couple thoughts:
— Gradey is way better when he’s set, or flows into his 3 pt shot.
— An MJ sighting! He did fine. Only sucked on defense on one possession. Maybe. He put some good effort in on a few possessions. He sometimes seems a step behind on D. Wonder if he just doesn’t pay attention to his man, or has no clue. Happy to see him in the game.
— Boy o boy has KJ been an unexpected treat.
— See what happens when KJ, Kevin and Dajuan score a few? Much needed help.
— Pettiford. Hmmm. Obviously he won us a game this year, but otherwise seems like a career backup. Anybody see him taking a huge leap next year? Bill says he plays good D and slides his feet the best.
— I like the spasmodic energy that Zuby and Ernest bring to the game.
-
Jalen has averaged 28 a game the last 4. It’s incredible how good this kid is as a scorer, leader, everything. Grown A** Man. Hearing him talk after every game, he’s a professional and absolutely soaked in all that Agbaji taught him last season.
It’s been incredible watching his rise.
-
Really good comp. Kev’s highs and lows are the same, rewarding and costly just like Dave was. Making that dagger 3 made up for several bad wide open misses. Just Kev I guess, he’s a big shot maker at opportune moments. Defensively he was in his bag yesterday in passing lanes, digging 50/50 balls and boards. Makes up for the previous 3-4 games where he seemed to get scored on at will. Crazy stuff.
Said it earlier in the season, you would never know this kid didn’t play here 4 yrs. His fit here in uncanny

Tagline on CBS:
“Oklahoma, West Virginia and Kansas had big upset wins vs. SEC teams on Saturday in the last SEC/Big 12 Challenge” So…the 9th ranked team in the country beating an unranked 'Tucky team is a “big upset win”. Whatever.

KU was an underdog so it was an upset
