Other games 2024-2025
-
Wow, what a week for UConn-3 consecutive losses. OUCH!
-
-
Something to think about. Over the last 19 contests against- – Duke - -N Carolina - -& Kentucky - -we are 16-3- -not to shabby
-
Anyone else watch the WV-Louisville game? Our old friend Joe Yesufu now plays for the mountaineers. He played a little….5 minutes and collected 4 fouls
-
@kjayhawks Couldn’t watch but saw my other old friend Chucky Hepburn went off for 32 for Luisville.
-
Marcus Adams is playing for CSUN this year and has put up some points against non-P4 opponents. (Cal State Northridge)
-
@Gorilla72 He is only 35 miles from home.
-
Reaching the end of Feast Week, the SEC has clearly established itself at the strongest conference at this point. B12 at best 2nd, maybe 3rd behind the B10. B12 has a losing record against ranked teams. SEC is 11-5. 7 undefeated teams. Have won almost of the matchups with B12. Hawks will stay #1 after beating Duke, but Auburn has been the most dominant team thus far, with an even more impressive slate of wins - UNC, Iowa St., Houston and Memphis.
-
@DCHawker Florida has looked pretty salty so far too. They had a 27-0 run during their 37 point win over previously undefeated Wichita St. today and have won every game by double digits so far including a 13 point win over a solid FSU team.
Oklahoma is also looking good so far this season as they’re currently up on Louisville in the championship game of the Battle 4 Atlantis.
-
One team letting down the B12 is Arizona. They’ve lost 4 of 5, mostly to 0n the fringe of ranked type teams. Duke is their best loss while strangely their loss to WVU today is considered non conference as I’m sure it was scheduled long before they dreamed they’d be in the same league.
-
Lost 4 of their top 6 guys from a year ago. With Caleb Love your main dude your going to have a hard time being consistent. Their talent is just down from previous years from what I’ve seen so far.
-
Lady Jayhawks won their tourney, beat auburn by 1
-
Oregon surprising Bama yesterday and Houston loses in an upset of sorts finishing 4th in their tournament, yikes. Future opponent Creighton avoids UCONNs fate by winning the 7th place game in the same tournament.
Lot’s of good games coming up this week. The B12/BigEast challenge starts. BIG starts league play this week with mid week games the next two weeks. ACC/SEC challenge takes place this week. BAMA/UNC and Auburn/Duke are the headliners on Wednesday.
-
@wissox Creighton have some injuries?
-
You’ll need 3 TVs Wednesday night. Besides KU @ Creighton at 7:30 on FS1, watch Baylor @ UConn at 5:30 on FS1(sure to go into OT to delay seeing our game), Alabama @ NC at 6:15 on ESPN, then at 7:00 Marquette @ Iowa St, broadcast unknown and at 8:15 on ESPN2 Auburn @ Duke. This reminds me of the NCAA Tournament. Too many great games to watch.
-
@stoptheflop Thanks for filling in the blanks with the games Wednesday. Somehow I missed Baylor-UConn and ISU-Marquette. Wow, what a day.
@Crimsonorblue22 I haven’t heard they have injuries, but don’t know for sure.
-
Creighton was missing their starting point guard, Steven Ashworth. He was back Saturday vs ND and played 36 minutes.
-
Too many teams in the main conferences leads to not enough TV channels to show all the league games shoving more and more games to ESPN+, peacock, etc. So tomorrows headliner game between Iowa St and Marquette, #5 v. #6 is on ESPN+.
-
League getting embarrassed so far tonight.

Alas, it’s not just tonight. Sadly, the B12 has WAY under-performed rankings and expectations through this week. Tonight, it’s not just a ranked (shouldn’t have been) Cincinnati team losing to 5-4 Villanova. Or BYU down big to Providence at half. Or ASU down to San Diego (NOT San Diego State).
Arizona has 4 losses; Houston 3. KU is the only undefeated team. The B12 has a loosing record against ranked teams. I’m not a fan of the SEC, but it is 11-6 against AP ranked teams.
The B12 has been the strongest conference top to bottom the past several years - that isn’t the case this year…
-
@DCHawker “KU is the only undefeated team”. That’s all that really matters!
-
The SEC certainly looks like the best conference right now.
-
By a mile……Auburn is crazy athletic and Pope oddly has UK much better than I expected
Bama is always a tough out as well
-
I will take a weaker Big-12 if that’s what ends up being. The amount of difficulty it’s been the last 2/3 years was due to regress to some extent at some point.
But just look at KU’s league schedule. There’s no way teams are not coming with their super bowl efforts when KU comes to town. 10 road league games.
-
SEC steamrolled ACC - 9-1 in those matchups last night…
-
@BeddieKU23 Agree with you 100 % . I have said many times in the past no matter who we play for the most part and I speak mainly about middle of the pack to low in our Conference when we come the place is going to be rockin. Other Schools always come up with ways to fill the joint-- Black outs -White outs , some kind of specials for their fans when we come. – Pump the volume up , , same way for Non Con average teams - -that’s because for a lot of these teams we ARE their NCAA Championship game , THE game of the year to them. When they play other Schools their place a lot of times is half full , and dead as a door nail sound wise , excitement wise , you can’t figure out if your at a College Basketball game or, a badminton match with a bunch of ol ladies sipping tea and eating crumpets
You tell me if we are not their game of the year then why IF they should they pull the upset - - why do they storm the Court ? – Hell we have seen seen other good tems fans rush the floor after they should happen to beat us.
One thing I don’t get is and announcers have said this , if they beat us or about to, the fans start chanting OVER RATED- -why would you do that All your doing is taking away from your win because , if we are over rated then your not beating a good of team as you thought – just WOW- - act like you belong.- - -Sorry turned this into a NOVEL response but yes Agree 100 %- - ROCK CHALK
-
SEC this year in Basket Ball is going to be a tough out
-
ugh. I hope that doesn’t hold up late in the season… But Auburn sure looks legit.
-
Waiting for that UConn state of the program from @kuballin10
Hurley not Jesus himself??? Clingan and Newton merchant???
-
Silence is golden!
-
I truly can not believe how bad UConn is. Baylor is also bad.
-
KU has huge
on our back!
-
Alabama spanking UNC in the dean dome
-
The only drama in this one is will it be done by 7:30 so we can watch our game uninterrupted?
-
Lucky ours is on FSI
-
It’s really hard to get a whistle in Storrs I imagine, especially after Mt. Hurley erupted last week and they need a win in the worst kind of way.
-
@BeddieKU23 I’m watching this game on FS1
-
@BShark My had my bad I should have responded sooner!
There is only one Christ so definitely not
He is a total dbag and he was already prideful but man now he’s unbearable
Let’s see what he does in March with his scheme but if he can’t elevate a top 25 roster (not top 10) then it definitely changes
Would love if we book end there titles with 22 and 25 then we go back to back with 25&26!
-
ISU off to a good start against Shakas boys. Unbelievably it’s on ESPN+
-
Roach concussed.
-
Baylor better pick it up
-
Zuby and St. John just spanked the Mildcats in NY
-
Zuby highly motivated!
-
Periodic reminder Shaka is an enormous douche
-
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Other games 2024-2025:

Has turned into such a beast. Low key may be better than Hunter…
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Zuby is the one I’m most disappointed in losing in recent years. Many thought I was crazy saying I would rather have had Zuby over Udeh, but Zuby to me always had the higher ceiling because of his defense. With some range in his game now too, Zuby has become the more versatile player overall from Udeh as well.
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 kudos. You were correct.
-
Sometimes they just need time!
-
Uk and zags would mop the floor with us in any neutral site game……both are hyper athletic
The issue completely is Bill getting away from 4 guards to go back to 2 bigs. Running your offense through a back to the basket big is so inefficient and proven in 2024 statistically.
4 guards = better ball handlers = less turnovers and better offense/shots
Bill acting like if he sat kj we’d sacrifice rebounding while he already doesn’t rebound and the lack of 4 guards inhibits us scoring is the season ender with this crap
The same issues last year that cause ANOTHER round of 32 BLOWOUT will take place yet again if we face an athletic team
-
@kuballin10 All I’m gonna say on this is - -Ku isn’t turning the ball over very often-- -under 10 turnovers is pretty good actually taking care of the ball. - -That is all
