YAWWNNN KU-Buffs 10 PM

FT’s are what the difference was. 19/24 vs. 10/16 made. They actually made 1 more bucket ( a 3 pointer) than we did on 18 more shots (56 vs 70)
-
Solid win. Not great, didn't bring our A-game, but not terrible either.
What did we do to deserve Melvin Council?
-
@patoh3 so nice to have a good FT team.
-
They went cold, say about 4th quarter.
-
I'd like to see more of Dawson, less of the other 2. At least give him more of a chance to check him out.

Dawson looks bigger and sturdier than I thought he was. He boxed out a bigger guy a few times.

First of all was that the worst officiating job this year? Fran hates KU BB and we dislike you back. Super physical game by the Buffs but our defense was solid to great. CU has a well coached and good team and this is the kind of road win we needed to see! Oh, shut up Fran for god's sake just quit it.
-
Just woke up in the middle of the night to check the score! Good guys won. Woo hoo!
-
I hope u watch it. Melvin had a really exciting play. Fran lost it! Couldn't let it go
-
#50 only played 7 mins. Flo must've hurt the big guy
-
@Khonas welcome to the buckets!
-
Unfortunately couldn't watch last night but just watched the full replay getting ready for work.
Darryn playing til the end- Nice!
Darryn getting a bit hobbled mid-2nd half and playing like he was hobbled. Hopefully he's good for Saturday.
Flory- Huge defensive game. He's an elite rim protector. 4 or more blocks in 5 of the 6 conference games so far.
White- Huge bounce-back game for him 17 & 15.
Council- Huge game. Those 2 layups within 5 seconds were what gave KU the momentum to get the W. He's made of brass.
Officiating- Do better. Awful to watch Council/Tiller/White continuously be fouled at the rim. Colorado is very lucky this team didn't have 30 FT attempts.
Proud of the team for the response on the road. Perhaps the Self situation kept them focused on winning for him. Perhaps the team has made real growth (looks like it). KU had dropped 7 of its last 8 Big-12 road games so nice to get one. Now let's get another on Saturday Night.
-
I wonder if coach watched it on the same channel we all did. Did he mute Fran?
-
Ya I’m hearing Fran was a tool bag the whole game yet again. Maybe Bill watching at home realizes why the fans hate him so much at this point.
-
Syncing Brian Hanni is worth the one minute of effort prior to each tipoff. As for the controversial play, Council actually didn't swipe at the ball at first. The Colorado player didn't wait for Council to leave the area and just chucked the ball right into his arm.
-
@rcjhdraft we play like that Sat were gonna get beat period , someone mentioned great defense - - -must of been watching a different game then I was because our defense on their three point shooting was just plain dog crap. WIDE OPEN THREE's I mean WIDE OPEN. hell my disabled grand mother could of defended that better, better get that fixed. Better in the 2nd half but that first was just ridiculous
-
@ROCKCHALK2025 There was some great defense late in the second half but the defense in the first half was terrible
-
Certainly, the first half was rocky defensively, but they made adjustments in the 2nd half which ultimately helped them win. Good to see they were able to make adjustments without Self. Perhaps he would have tweaked some stuff earlier, we don't know. Still, we won on the road without our coach. I'm not sure any team recently has accomplished that.
3 pt defense will have to be sharp Saturday as that's all K-St does. Defend and rebound. We can beat them, they are horrible defensively.
