Hawks vs Pokes Game Thread
-
We maybe ranked 1 Monday morning but ain’t playing like a top 25 team. We have this 5-0 start against teams that won’t finish in the top half of this league. The losses are coming and a lot of them if we don’t pick it up.
-
plus, JJ has played his best in the final 5 min and that’s saying something
-
@bskeet have no idea what you are talking about. Our guys have no defensive pride which has been evident since the first game. The only thing we learned is that our problems are still there
-
Ugly, but I’ll take it!
-
Freaking fouling knowing we haven’t made a ot.
-
With the addition of Underwood (> Ford by miles) and Beard (more fire than elder Tubby, and seems to have focused a half-full cupboard of talent), the homecoming of Dixon (> Johnson, who seems to have given up on Karviar and crew), the improvement of Drew into a legit coach over the last few years, and Weber having his own kids, even if less talented, playing well.
I never thought I’d be thinking Shaka was the worst coach in the Big 12 when he joined.
-
Agree. Team has come out poorly every game starting with the UNLV game. I kept thinking for awhile it would get better but it may just be the way it is with this team.
-
No favorable refereeing that I saw, OSU fouled like there was no tomorrow.
-
Fts were 30-45 67% And FG was 44%
-
Well sorry KU fans. This game doesn’t count. KU didn’t play great defense and got lucky. NCAA is giving the win to Okie because KU didn’t deserve to win.
-
@DoubleDD you know, I will take the W, but they played so poorly that it feels like a loss.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Absolutely… that was the strategy… It kept them in the game.
-
Did osu shoot above their average?
-
@DoubleDD idk how we will win in Ames or this conference playing like we have the last few here.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 doesn’t every team when they get to the mecca?
-
-
Can’t wait to hear post game

They must have been close… Sounded like there were multiple career highs…
-
I used to focus on nothing but tournament success. Last I took a bath form the posters last year, and I deserved it. To win a championship is so hard. Trying to speculate whether a team is this or that will drive you crazy. The lesson I learned last year from my fellow posters is just enjoy the ride.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 gonna be the same story we don’t guard jack diddly crap.
-
You think Texas can beat WV today?

Question: Bill, why does your team always under-perform against your Alma Mater?
-
Maybe Tevin Mack was the only thing holding them back
-
@approxinfinity I have my doubts but would like nothing better.
-
@DoubleDD I seemed to remember you were on the dark side.
-
33 here, I’m scared! Got the heat up high, hot!

What I would pay to hear that question! No one will ask that, at least not that bluntly. But we fans can certainly wonder…
-
Who’s replacing Baylor on Monday, KU or Villanova?
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 Bilas said nova
-
Yep, but all that stuff is water under the bridge. There is no light or dark side. Just KU fans.
-
DOOKIES LOST
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 KU. For one shining week (at least).
-
@RockChalkinTexas A gain
-
@DoubleDD You know I have yet to find a column in the league standings that describes how teams played when they won.
-
Allen got slapped in the face for armlocking a kid and taking him down to the floor, then acting like he was hurt.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I would’ve assumed Nova at 2 this week, but that didn’t happen though.
-
@RockChalkinTexas think Allen got a lil nose rubbing, accidentally of course.
-
If we were more stacked with available talent like last year, there would definitely be more debate and dissension in the camp.
-
I don’t think it’s fatal. We’re 16-1. We’re KU- we’ve always won ugly.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Huggy doesn’t teach that does he?
-
-
KState Baylor getting ready to tip off on ESPNNU.
-
I prefer a strong finish to a fast start.
-
I like Solomon
-
I think some fans are having a hard to wrapping their minds around the fact that KU isn’t playing stellar defense, and that this team is an offense juggernaut.
-
Anyone watching Texas vs WV

And come up short at end of year…more often than we all would have hoped.
I’m okay with win any how you can. Love to hear solid discussion about what’s needed to improve.
-
Yep
-
Why is this some big revelation when we look like crap and win??? Have we forgotten badball? this is badball on steroids…badball with offense included…
-
Guess pull for Texas here.
