OH NO
-
Oh my goodness, can it be? - - Good ol Roy Boy’s beloved Tarheels got beat by WOFFORD at Chapel Hill? – Got to be a mis print - not the all and mighty Tarheels at Chapel Hill. - - hmmmm
79-75 last night. Wonder what good ol ESPN - -Dickie V and all the other ACC suckup media will have to say? - -I can tell ya - - NOT MUCH, just a bunch of excuses, cover ups for good ol N Carolina.
Ya Ku gets beat twice - and man ESPN and commentators just have a field day with it - -Oh whats wrong with KU, KU has issues, well sure very well partially true but I wouldn’t exactly put Wofford on the Same level as Arizona State - or even to a lesser degree Washington as far as that goes.
But it’s the ACC we are talking about here, it’s N Carolina we are talking about here this can’t be, watch they will smooth it all over - ahh Wofford much better then people give them credit for, that will be just one of the excuses they hand out, because as we all know THIS just does not happen. Not to NCarolina - -Not to good old Roy.
Wofford was in control of this game pretty much the entire 2nd half, NC got pretty close towards the end but NOPE couldn’t do it.
You tell me which is a more embarrasing loss, - -KU losing to Arizona State at Allen , or North Carolina losing to Wofford in Chapel Hill? - - not even close. Wofford picked to finish SIXTH in the Southern conference. Not sure where Arizona State was picked but let’s look - -Sothern Conference - -Pac 12 – Pac 12 - - Southern conference, not really the same level conference I don’t think. - Still sit back and watch they will try and down play this as a no biggie. - to me - -funny as hell.
On a serious note, this game right here is a perfect example of what a couple of us have been talking about this week. - KU better be ready tonight, better be focused for sure Stanford is what 6-6? Still Jerrod is gonna have these guys Jacked for this game. Another perfect example where this is like an NCAA game to alot of these schools. Teams have trouble focusing on these types of games right before Christmas. KU has had alot of trouble with games like this right before Christmas. We are not good enough at the present to have one of these types of games - got to be focused and not worried or concentrating on getting on the plane for break. - We better be ready, we need to close the non con out on a good note. - -Travis is going to go off, got to shut down the others. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

I’m sure their defending national championship status will help soothe their hurt. I would take a loss to Wofford if we were still living in the glow of a national championship. But I’m forgetting what that feels like.
-
@wissox You won’t be able to say that this time next year.
-
I saw that last night and all I could think was Woof.
-
Enjoyable.
-
Wofford is 2-0 against the ACC this season.
-
@Kcmatt7 6-4 outside of the ACC

Mercy, that’s pretty lame. - sad actually your willing to take a loss in 2017 because you won a championship last year? - -lmao - - you like to live in the past? - I can’t seriously believe you said that lol - -that’s actually kind of funny in a way.
Hell that’s about like saying after they get fired - well I can take getting fired today because last week I won a scratch ticket in the lotto lmao.
That championship looking pretty dim . - -If a person is accepting defeat with an excuse such as that then - -I’m sorry. - This is 17-18 - -not 16-17. -Kind of like it’s ok this kid beat my ass today I can accept that because 3 yrs ago I beat his brother up. - -I like you - -you got a great sense of humor -you make me laugh lol - - Wow… - -Hope your day goes well. - -ROCK CHALLK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@Kcmatt7 6-4 outside of the ACC Nooooooooooooooooooo, say it isn’t so -not the almighty ACC. - -Wofford 6-4 playing others outside of the ACC?
Maybe they should see about gaining entrance to the all mighty powerful. - -Then they could take Duke & N Carolina’s spot as instant media darlings lmao. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Roy Boy, we bid you a fond welcome to weekly postings of the early season polls!
-
ACC has won 3 of the last four National Championships, just saying, so they are pretty good.
@jayballer54 Here we go again. Creating a post gloating about UNC losing a week after we were embarrassed at home. They’re the champs. Creating a post that mocks a team for loosing a game they should have won just seems pretty silly. It makes us look like insecure fans who feel satisfaction when another team loses a game. It makes us look like defeated fans who think, well, our team stinks but at least one of our peers sucked…last night at least.
And UNC is coached by one of our own. Roy Williams, a near legend at KU.

And UNC is coached by one of our own. Roy Williams, a near legend at KU. Guess what? - -let me tell you this if you sincerely think that our loss even begins to compare to theirs then all I can say is WOW.
Losing to an Arizona State team at home is in no way shape or form even close to losing to a Wofford team - -again Pac 12 - -to a Southern - you tell me who has the more prestigious league?
Gloating? - - Gloating ? - -that is really funny Like I said I like you, you make me laugh really you do thanks…
There is no chance that is gloating - -tell you what it is though it is retribution and how sweet it is when all we get to hear from the morons of ESPN about How sweet North Carolina - -Duke is , and we lose our game and against a better opponent and it’s like the sky is falling with them.
Now you call it what you want - I know I’m really sick and tired about their ass kissing with the ACC - they don’t think basketball is played anywhere but on the East Coast - here is a news flash for ya - -we do play some pretty dam good ball here in the midlands.
You got me messed up if you start talking about me being insecure, lol - but thanks so glad you try and analyze me. didn’t realize you knew me like that at all.
As far as peers - -lol - -Peers ? - Peers ? - -Seriously? - -Really - -maybe a peer for you - they sure the hell aren’t KU’S peers
Let me just put everything else aside here for a minute and say this to you. - For some reason you have taken a did liking to me it sure seems - you always feel the need to attack my threads. - I can conversate with any other normal person - but when someone starts making assumptions about myself. - -you are so far off base you have no idea. - -One I’m far from insecure - -two Goat - lmao - -that is so dam funny - my statement just good old fashion fact and Truth - sorry you don’t get that - -Carolina got beat by a much more inferior opponent plain and simple and ya I’m gonna give them hell for it - you don’t like that then sorry - always have - -always will. Bottom line Is you don’t like the way I state things on here or just feel the need to once again attack the best thing is just not to respond to my thread - pretty simple. - -I’ve tried with you - I’m no different the any other person whether you want to believe or not. -Sorry you feel the need but it’s ok the sun is still gonna come up in the East tomorrow and sit in the West, and I’m gonna sleep just fine thanks - - have a great night - -oh ya - - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Hilarious! You put this quote into mine and then criticized me for what you wrote! You wrote “Guess what? - -let me tell you this if you sincerely think that our loss even begins to compare to theirs then all I can say is WOW.” See the post I wrote right above yours. Not sure if you did that intentionally or not, but I didn’t say that.
Sorry if you think I’m attacking but I call it like I see it. Your post looks petty. Maybe I should just keep my mouth shut but as you can guess, and I think the same is probably true for you, I’m a big mouth!
-
So will NC fall 20 spots in the CBS poll? Doubt it.

Ok so then I guess I can say it’s best for BOTH OF US to shut our mouths, - -no I don’t think - -every thread I post you find it to your liking to - - -ahh never mind not worth it - -I’ll still sleep just fine
You see you want to get into a game of just like some little high schooler or better yet some Jr High kid - feeling the urge to call names like " Petty, Insecure, shall we go on? " It’s ok you do what ever makes you feel good ok, oh ya again though if you can find it in you let’s shit our mouth ok? - - We could do this barb back and forth for a week but yet ( yawn ) - it’s starting to bore me - -moving on to better conversation, and ya let’s just keep our mouths shut - how does that sound? - -GREAT -you have a great night and oh ya - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

Oh hell no we wouldn’t do that lol. You know we only d that if your in the big 12 - certainly not the media darlings ACC right?
People making out like when KU got beat OH the sky is falling - -when Wofford beats UNC on their home floor at Chappel Hill what do we hear? - -Oh well this club is better then what people give them credit for. REALLY? - -This team is picked to finish SIXTH in the almighty powerful Southern Conference.
People wanna talk about how bad we play - ya these were bad games but who is the bigger upset KU getting beat at Allen against Arizona State who is now ranked 3rd in the Nation and have a BPI power index of # 5 in the nation? - -Or Wofford at chappell Hill on your home floor by a team that is picked for SIXTH in the Southern conference and a BPI of 78th in the nation - which their win is their 1st victory EVERY against a top 25 team in the history of the school. - So who was the bigger upset - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY

@jayballer54 If this was a discussion sitting in a bar or something, it’d just be a fun debate. By keyboard, these come out differently like we’re super pissed at each other. I don’t want it to sound like that. I like debates. Maybe I can work on introducing my objections to what you write in a different way, I’ll try.
@Crimsonorblue22 Way to play the peacemaker!
-
By the way, my original response was an opinion with no name calling, just a very real feeling that I have about our dearth of championships. It was to that response that you started the name calling by calling me lame.

@jayballer54 Gary Parrish dropped the TarHeels 10 spots to #15, and Lunardi dropped them to the 3 line on ESPN. We are on the 4 line and at 18 now, I think, on CBS.
I have read analyses citing UNC’s new players not meshing as a major flaw. By contrast, analysts are focused on our lack of another go-to post player as revealed in our losses, a factor much discussed by us fans as well. Team cohesion can be addressed with practice and more games. Roster issues for us will hopefully be ameliorated, but the rankings are based on where we are, not what we hope will happen.
I see no excuse-making by anyone for UNC’s loss and do not see any anti-B12 bias involved–the number of conf teams ranked (6, by Parrish) seems to disprove your complaint. And Parrish’s lead article today is about TCU’s big improvement.
You were already quite incensed anticipating all the bias you wrote about, so I do not know if any of this matters, but I think you might want to at least reassess your expectation.
-
Right now, KU’s roster is flawed in ways that good teams can exploit.
If Preston and De Sousa are available, that flaw does not exist and KU is immediately once again one of the best five or six teams in the country. If those guys aren’t available, KU could get to the Final Four or lose in the first round of the NCAA tournament. That’s the level of variation because there is a clear roster construction flaw if those guys aren’t available, and a bad matchup could expose KU at any point.
Once an announcement is made on Preston and De Sousa, we can figure out what the ceiling (and the floor) for this team is.

@mayjay My question to you is WHY? did you not read my other threads where I stated I was done with this? - -Wissox and I are fine - we have moved on. - -Yet you feel the need to re-stir the flame - anyways - -Have a Merry Christmas. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 My post was meant to reassure you that KU was not as singled out as you thought. If that inflames, I do not see how.
-
@mayjay Oh I’m not inflamed with you, why would I be? - Simply said I’ve moved on - or we tried at least but then when I see comments I have yet to master to just zip my lip and say nothing.
My thing to you is- not really sure how much you watch sporting channels on your TV -but If you have and somehow didn’t hear then I really am at a loss of words on what to tell you.
After KU lost these two games OMG you would think that the end of the world is coming. What’s wrong with Kansas and pointing out well the last time KU got beat two straight at home was - - blah , blah , blah - and it didn’t stop on the sports center. Announcers doing other games afterwards- -Oh what’s wrong with Kansas - -Seth Greenburg - -OH what’s wrong.
My question was and is – is KU the only school that has had a two game losing streak -sure seems they blowing this thing out of proportion - -everyone goes through these kinds of times
Then when the ESPN Media Darling N Carolina - -Or Duke loses we always hear ESPN cover up - -oh well these teams aren’t getting enough credit - just find it kind of strange that’s all - and kind of getting old - I KNOW I’m not the only one that feels like this - well now that said - once again I’m moving on - happy thoughts - -Christmas Cheer - -Egg Nog - - Beer - -Jack Daniels - - Hot Blondes -And another Big 12 Championship - -MERRY CHRISTMAAS - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer54 Anything critical I heard or read about KU after our losses paled in comparison to what I saw posted here.
Done here. Have a peaceful holiday!
-
@jayballer54 My question was and is – is KU the only school that has had a two game losing streak -sure seems they blowing this thing out of proportion
The reason for this is because KU does NOT have 2 game losing streaks. It’s a big deal. It’s news when something only happens every 30 years.
