Ok guys game on
-
Well my friends today is game day, so let me hear how you think we will do, be straight up, be honest. Here is mine, and yes I DO think we will come out ahead, I think it could be a close game as Tech has proven that they are quite capable and then there is always those intangibles that work in their favor such as: #1 , trying to rebound from a tough road loss, #2 , knowing they have to protect home court if they want any kind of a chance to contend, #3 , the Arena gonna be rockin, as usually the case half full BUT not tonight, #4 , playing the nu 1 team in the Nation, on top of IT’S KU #5 , they have some players still on this team that will inject a boost of confidence into other team mates that were there the year before last when we won 64-63 and they will feed to others telling them they can play with us. those are things that I see we have to guard against. Now having said that I believe that we STILL come out on top, maybe close, then maybe not very easily go either way but either way a win.May surprise maybe the biggest reason again why I think so but here it is, ONCE again I fully believe that our C-5 by committee will play a huge role in helping on Zach Smith, Now I believe in this Game that this is a game where Bragg & even Diallo could be very beneficial against Zach, espically Carlton, Zach is a very mobile athletic big man but I think Bragg can stay with him, maybe see substantial minutes but that’s just me. But with our collection in our 5 spot again allowing us to play to situation will be a plus, then on top of those things I still just think Tech going to have trouble matching up on their defensive end of the court. OK that’s me, now let me hear your thoughts, your predictions. All I know is we just have to bring it, night in, night out and as always ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 If we push Tubby’s tempo & get in transition we get a fairly easy win. But he wants an in your face half court game with stops, so in that regard floor spacing & knocking down open looks should be essential. The book on Perry says double him going to his right or force him left, & make the other guys beat you with jump shots, which so far has been quite successful. In fact we’ve not lost in almost 2 months, largely because of being one of the best shooting teams in CBB. If it’s an ugly slow game that the ref’s call a lot of fouls, we still get a win but, the next one vs WVU may not be so simple. Of course, JMO & ROCK CHALK onward into game night after Wild Card Saturday in the NFL.

I think we will win but it will be close. This is a game where I think there is a greater chance of us losing than most people think. Odiase had a good game against us last year. Their guards are good…if they are really hot we could be in trouble. But we should still come out on top.
-
Tubby is a better coach than he gets credit for. He will have his guys ready. I expect a better game that it looks like on paper.

I’m expecting a big let down to Jayhawk fans after our last game with OU. Today’s game might get a bit ugly and we are bound to lower our play to the level of TT.
I just hope we can win out in the end. We need to be a team that earns a reputation for closing out well in the last few minutes. That is probably what it will take today.
-
Our guards are really good and if we are hot TT is in trouble!

@Crimsonorblue22 I was waiting for that! You are, of course, correct.

So, C5 was terrible and our guardS were too (outside of Frank Mason).
