BIG GAME!! The Students Are There, We Should Talk
-
Kevin, Hunter, KJ. Kevin’s 3s were huge

It’s a good win. But the building should be worth 10. Let’s not lose sight of that

500

@FarmerJayhawk don’t believe I said anything like that. Merely that having 3 top 16 wins while everyone on the planet knows that means exactly Dick at this point in the season is not anything to be proud of when we all know we could lose to Eastern Illinois. Simply put
-
@cragarhawk ah so good win but not really. Gotcha.
-
@wissox I helped get you 500
-
@RockChalkinTexas OK, I’ll send it to you!
-
Furphy goes 2/3 from deep.
-
Northwestern up 3 with 1:20 left
-
@RockChalkinTexas it’s been a rough 2 weeks for them
-
I’m getting to old for these type of games lol. – Now I need to check my pace maker
-
@wissox it’s wild that they might beat Purdue while wearing their colors
-
@wissox said in BIG GAME!! The Students Are There, We Should Talk:
@RockChalkinTexas OK, I’ll send it to you!
Washed I hope. I’ll send address in Chat!!
-
@RockChalkinTexas I hope you know I was joking!
-
@FarmerJayhawk it’s a win. A win is always good. But you think you don’t lose that by 15 plus at Uconn? We aren’t playing good. Don’t look good. We all know it. And ya. There’s a reason it looks that way. Multiple reasons. One of which particularly tonite is BIG east basketball is just simply better atm. I don’t like it. But there’s no reason to BS about it
-
@wissox Nooooooooo s/c
-
UCONN and Eastern Illinois basically the same
-
@cragarhawk yeah, I think it’s close no matter where we play. As far as the Big East goes, they’ve got like 4 good teams. I’m not impressed
-
@FarmerJayhawk what are the odds the newton kid hits like he did tonight?
-
@FarmerJayhawk IG it all depends on if you value tournament success
-
@Crimsonorblue22 great point! 0
-
@cragarhawk yeah I don’t really care what they did in previous years when 40% of players change teams each year.
-
I like we messed up their on the road record, seems like they flourish on it!
-
Purdue about to lose to Northwestern
-
2nd year in a row Northwestern knock off #1 purdue, but not over yet entire.y
-
@FarmerJayhawk makes sense. So we just gotta do better on the 40% we get. I like it and agree
-
@cragarhawk yeah, I think we’ll be better than last year. Feel free to put me in that camp
-
Our win gonna get pushed off the front page by Purdue losing.
-
@wissox stay under the radar. Not a problem
-
@FarmerJayhawk we should be. I hope so. But I was in the camp that thought last year was better than the result also…
-
@cragarhawk same. Missing the man the myth the legend was not ideal
-
I predict our freshman will start looking a lot better sometime in January and people will start to feel better about the team
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich that’s such a real thing with freshman. Great point!
-
You can look at this game one of two ways IMO. We had to be playing at Allen Fieldhouse or we get smoked (may or may not be true). Or you could say that’s a good win against a good team, when they had a guy go absolutely bananas for 41 points. In which I’ll bet anyone here he doesn’t do again this season. I’ll choose the later in December, I was very pleased with our defense for much of the night. They had to hit fade away 3s at the end of the shot clock repeatedly to not get ran out of the gym.
-
The freshmen will stop forcing things. The team which returned only 3 guys… 1 who was a transfer last year, 1 who is pass first, and 1 whose mom just died, will find its team identity, and the sum will start to look greater than its parts.
-
You have to take the win and be happy. Seriously. But I can’t help but think these players, these pieces could look so much better together. Like I’ve said. Silver lining is its still gotta be very very possible
-
@approxinfinity odd to me that Mari got zero minutes, was pleased with him the past few games. I think Self is still putting in Timberlake for spurts, hoping he does something to earn more minutes.
-
@kjayhawks yeah I was curious if Mari said something stupid, or if this is some undisclosed toughening box thing… or if it was just tightening the belt against UConn.
-
NT is all but relegated to the CS bench doghouse for the season even per the presser after E. ILL. Which makes the Mari minutes even more curious
-
@cragarhawk ya we basically played 6 guys tonight, which I don’t like with how tough our schedule is this season. Nick was in but I only for 1 or 2 minutes. Hopefully it’s just a minor deal with Mari, he could be sick. I’ve heard of the flu or something running thru the team since Kevin was sick in Hawaii.
-
@cragarhawk I wonder if he was just giving EJ enough run to get into a flow, and Kevin and Juan couldn’t come out.
It’s going to be this story all year, I think.
EJ/JM/NT all fighting for 2 minutes, unless 1 of them can handle well enough that Self can put Juan down for spells (I’m skeptical)
