Rock Chalk Talk from Lubbock
-
Saw the bottom crawl - Ariz and USC topping us and OU - in 4th OT.
-
@RockkChalkk I guess the announcers thought it was smart to drive it
-
@RockkChalkk said:
We’re turning down some open threes here the past few possessions. Just an observation, don’t know what it means, if anything.
Hit our limit of 14 3Pt Attempts in a half…
-
It rhymes with “tool’s cold.”
-
Was that on Mari? Looked clean.
-
Traylor is getting ripped off
-
The last time we played an ugly half like this was…?
-
-
Three fouls on both LL and JT in the first half. Yikes.
-
Jam ove the back looked clean, but the guy flopped.
-
I don’t think self is happy w/our D!
I’m not
-
@RockkChalkk We may need all 25 fouls for the C5!
-
Not sure if that was a foul on JT

What is Self going to do now?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah, I must’ve blinked cause I didn’t see the foul on Mari’s block.
-
Tubby’s Ball Line Defense doesn’t look very different, but it apparently IS different.
It gives us fits every time.
-
I am not worried about the shooting. I am worried about the sloppy play, fouling, and careless play in general.
-
Very sloppy play. …and is there ever a lid on the basket. Selden had a really tough half.
-
Hield having another good game.
-
C5 has 9 fouls, but 16 left to give the second half.
-
Do they have to ship pretty girls into Lubbock?
-
@jaybate-1.0 had
-
Yeeeee Hawwwww, foul C5, foul!!!
-
@DinarHawk well I’ll worry for you!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Well, they shot just 31% from the field - problem is less with out D then our O, as we shot just 29%…
-
@Crimsonorblue22 playing smart would have us up double digits at half.
-
-
I’m in favor of KU winning this game
-
-
Our guards are 1-15
-
@Crimsonorblue22 That’s below their average.
-
Shooting 29% from the floor…about the same from 3 as well…
-
I’m in favor of Brannen shooting a lot
-
C5 has 5 points and 7 boards.
Tubby’s Ball Line Defense is not inhibiting his rebounding, but it is making it very tough for him to get more than 10 points on offense. KU has grown to depend on 14 to 17 points minimum.
Let’s hope Self can get C5 untracked.
-
I wish C5 could grab more boards than our point guard.
-
Frank’s rebounding always flourishes on the nights were are bricking treys.
-
I like how you call C5 “him” singular
-
Well, its really kind of how I view the way the five players play. Add them up and you get one whole player.
-
That was an ugly a$$ half of BBall…Gotta do better than that. Looks like the 3 is not there tonight. Get ready for a 20 part post from Hem…
-
@jaybate-1.0 Frank is a rebounding stud for sure, but only one of his boards is offensive. He’s just scrappy.
-
Each of our players at the 5 has a strong suit, but each one is missing several supporting suits and we have to wait until the next player substitutes to get the other supporting suits.
To try a bridge metaphor.
-
I’ll admit it. I hate Tubby Smith. His teams at UK were so easy to dislike and my feelings live on. Sorry for the personal note.
-
-
@joeloveshawks Our biggest rival at Wisconsin was Minnesota, so my tubby hatred is from those days.
-
C5 takes on different identities when Self chooses to play guys differing minutes
-
Nice start
-
@RockkChalkk Perry’s fouls?
-
Now we go
-
Get some hands!
-
The announcer said this is the where KU needs to pick it up. We are winning by 4 while scoring 31, so I’d say we should pick it up at the other end.
