KU vs WSU - Match Ups
-
They are a double “B” team…Butler Bulldogs and as such, the kiss of death for KU. Luckily we don’t have to worry about this year since Notre dame won.
-
This IS the BEST thread on a college basketball game I have ever read!
“This is where all the posting, all the reading, all the arguing , all the analysis, all the up votes, pays off! No other online community in the world could move from a winter battle trying to figure out what this team ought to be, pack up after a 3 in three grind in Kansas City, move 180 virtual miles to Omaha Nebraska, change themes, unify and get behind this coach and team. God, I love these men (and women)!”–jayINAWEbate 1.0

Hell, yes, we are going to beat Marshall’s Munchkins!!!
-
@jaybate-1.0 I had a dream last night that KU beat WSU with ease and that one of the announcers said “This is why Kansas doesn’t need to schedule Wichita State”. I was sad when I woke up as it was just a dream but I have a feeling it is prophetic. I feel a big win coming and a lot of crow to be eaten by all of the CBS/TNT/TruTV morons, excuse me “experts”.
-
@joeloveshawks Nice!
-
I hope our fan base goes out, and buys out the Grecian Formula, and throws them on the floor when “Greasy Greg” is announced.
-
On a 10.0 scale, Self and Marshall face 1.o more pressure than in most contests this season. On a lighter note, I was very surprised that Self employed Mickelson so few minutes last game. I look to see our #1 candidate for a superstud role on FARMERS.COM earn some significant attention today.

Hey Shockers! Ever danced with the Devil in the pale moonlight?

@drgnslayr I fully agree. This game will be a tough bar brawl all the way down to the final second. I think KU matches up very well with WSU based on your descriptions. Height doesn’t mean everything as we have seen already this season. If our boys can take care of the ball, win the boards and at least break even with fouls and t/o’s, it’ll be a close game. Both teams will leave it on the court. This game means more than a sweet 16 appearance.
-
Do we put Oubre on Baker for most of the game?
-
The double header in Omaha today is my dream doubleheader. If money were no object…
-
@FarSideHawk was that just a coincidence? I bet Self would like this pic! Ha ha
-
@JhawkAlum I thought about that, oubre does get in foul trouble a lot.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 yes, apparently it was a coincidence, but I liked it and it suits Brannen’s personality too!
-
@FarSideHawk boy does it!!!
-
PHOF!
-
This captures the essense of BAD BALL!!!

Enjoying the pep rally at the century link center
-
@cragarhawk torture us!!! Cf is in Omaha w/parents.
-
Would @jaybate-1.0 or someone please enlighten me about what Connor could/would have told Wsu coaching staff regarding Self’s Bad Ball, if at all? That is worrying me to a point where I may not be able to watch the game. Have a weak stomach. And wondered if that’s why Wsu has been showing some resemblance to our Bad Ball (think jb referred to it earlier). Your positive input will be greatly appreciated to set my anxiety aside before the game.

@HawksWin take meds!

Since it is Sunday, let us close our eyes, bow our heads and pray with me:
Bill Self is our shepherd we shall not want. He makes us to set down in blue seated arenas. He leads me to final fours, he restores our hope and guides us to conference championships. Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of losses, we will fear no team for his plans will prevail. He prepares a table before us in the presence of the enemy. He anoints our trophy cases with wins, our trophy cases overflow. Surely greatness and victories will follow us all the days of the life because, you know, WE ARE KANSAS.
Amen.
(No harm, no malice!)

@Crimsonorblue22 Thanks to you I don’t need it now Thanks for the laughs!!!
-
@wissoxfan83 Wow Wiss, that’s one impressive prayer! I was at Church this morning, and couldn’t come up with good of a prayer But yes, I did say a prayer for our boys to romp Wsu - gently, of course.
-
I was led by the spirit, otherwise known as the Phog.
-
@wissoxfan83 You’re on a roll, and that’s one powerful spirit
-
I actually hesitated writing this as I didn’t want it to come across as offensive or even worse, blasphemous. What do you think? Does it cross the line?
-
@wissoxfan83 Oh NO, not at all. I did not sense any mean bone in your body except for our opponents - you weren’t being disrespectful or hateful - just a good sense of humor. God gave us humor. Thanks, I enjoyed it.
-
My son made it into the kcstar video during the pep rally!!
-
Can anyone currently living in Kansas tell us what the mood is in the state over this game? I would guess it’s the most anticipated game since the '88 KU-Kstate elite 8 game. Is it high buzz? Are the people there all talking about it?
-
And my kids got their pic taken with JamTrays mom!!
-
@wissoxfan83 Everyone shopping in Dillons had their KU gear on… like every other day.
Probably empty right now though.
-
@wissoxfan83 it’s the biggest bs ever.
-
@cragarhawk cool
-
@Crimsonorblue22 What do you mean the biggest bs?
