Other Games Tonight
-
Gonzaga played to their ceiling against Duke. I watched the game last night and it seemed they got a little tight late. Of course they are shorthanded right now and Washington made plays to get back in it.
-
Gonzaga looked tired and lazy last night and Washington is a decent team. I don’t think Duke is quite as good as everyone thinks either; they were only up 33-24 at halftime against Hartford (3-7) at Cameron. Gonzaga has a depth problem with Geno Crandall and Killian Tillie out right now. When they’re healthy I think they’re as good as anyone. I don’t think Gonzaga’s game last night was any worse than KU’s game against Stanford. Washington is better than Stanford.
-
Really looking forward to the neutral-site game between Tennessee and Gonzaga on Sunday. It will give us a chance to see how good KU’s win over the Vols really was. And the Williams, Schofield/Hachimura, Clarke matchups should be a lot of fun.
-
The only difference is that the MSM is calling Gonzaga a finish product while KU is a work in progress and not even close to its ceiling except for a few spurts here and there.
-
Iowa St is getting drilled at Iowa. Clones were actually favored in this game.
-
All of the shots Iowa missed against Michigan St. they are making tonight against Iowa St.
-
FWIW, Wofford scores 112 points tonight vs Kentucky Christian. It’s just two nights since scoring only 47 vs KU. Heck, they scored 59 in the first half alone!
Musta been mad, tonight huh? (Yeah, I know there’s a bit of a skill level difference between KY Christian & KU…
)
-
OU piss pounded WSU.
MSU beat Florida.
Seton Hall just beat UK and the Rupp refs in OT.
Good day so far!
-
Uh Oh Cal gets beat by Seton Hall - -oh well lmao. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
@jayballer73 And a great game. A prayer by SH followed by a bigger prayer by UK to tie in regulation. Couldn’t happen to a nicer team!

And West Virginia beat Pitt.
-
Seton Hall Kentucky was a great game. Powell shot out of his mind. Washington looked like a legitimate nba talent and Johnson made some clutch shots including a half court one to end regulation to send it to OT. Oh and Kentucky lost. What a day
-
@BeddieKU23 that was one of the better games I have seen all year. Both teams made some huge shots down the end and I thought the refs let them play
-
The UK-Setton Hall game was at Madison Square Garden in NY not at Rupp. Great win for Seton Hall with some crazy buzzer beaters by both teams.
-
Okie St loses at home to Houston.
KSU and Tulsa in a close one in the second half.
-
KState has 33 points at the 11-minute mark in the 2nd half. Is that good?

You missed the joke.
-
KSU loses to Tulsa. They have played two legit teams and lost both games.

Story of my Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuce.
-
Marquette takes advantage of missed UW FT’s tonight and wins in OT. Howard was 7-29, but got bailed out on a ton of foul calls and to his credit made them. But it’s a good SOS win for KU because Marquette beat two ranked teams this week.
-
@wissox Thoughts on that offensive foul on Happ’s tip in?
-
@Woodrow Bad loss for KSU and the B12. Tulsa lost to SIU, Nevada and Utah. Their only decent wins are against Okie State and now KSU. B12 has taken it on the chin since Thanksgiving. Virtually no quality wins since and a few bad losses.
-
@DCHawker the conference is not very good this year.
-
It’s almost like KU carries the banner for this clown conference every year.
-
Big 12 is a mixed bag at this point. KState, West Virginia have disappointed, but Texas Tech, Iowa State, and Oklahoma have exceeded expectations. Iowa St, especially, when they are healthy will not be a fun team to play against.
-
In all fairness, Marquette missed 7 of its last 9 FTs including 6 in a row at the end of the game and did it’s best to give the game away and Wisconsin just did not capitalize. Happ is a stud.
-
TCU is going to be pretty good as well and yesterday destroyed USC by 35 points.

FWIW, I thought the call was justified. The view from above showed a forearm shove that gave Happ his uncontested path to the rebound.
-
Nubs beat Creighton.
One time KU target Thomas Allen went for 18/5/4/1/1 with no turnovers.
-
@BShark It was the flukest Elite 8 run in the history of basketball.

It was fluky, but flukiest?
Counterpoint: VCU
-
Shaka is still cashing checks based on that one run. Just unreal.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich Exceeding expectations is relative. OU and TTU have a couple of decent wins each, but other than KU’s wins over MSU and Tennesses and UT’s over UNC, the B12 is lacking top 20 types of victories. B10 and ACC are way ahead in quality wins at this point…
-
@BShark G Mason.
-
-
The Big 10 is 9-2 for the weekend, the ACC 3-3 with only the Notre Dame-UCLA game left, the Big 12 is 4-2.
-
@BShark I don’t thinks it’s the flukiest top 5 maybe, KSU really only had to play UK to that point and really should’ve made the final four. George Mason and VCU were flukiest. VCU is probably number 1 because no one even had them in the tournament to start with.

Certainly no shame in losing to Nevada - -ranked # 6 in the Nation - ALOT of teams will lose to team -Utah is so so – SIU would for sure be the one that you would consider as a bad loss. – ROCK CHALK AL DAY LONG BABY

Tennessee new #1 tomorrow?

Wont be ku
-
Great win for Tennessee at a neutral site and by extent it helps KU. Only team with a somewhat realistic expectation to go unbeaten is now Nevada.
-
Top 5 game I’ve seen so far this season.

Here’s Admiral’s quote. This appears to be a crosssection of what he really feels, and what his coach has told him to feel. Classic…epic …sports quote:
“Honestly, in reality, it’s a big statement,” Schofield said. “We’re not going to act like it’s not a big deal. For us, it’s not. We’re only playing in December. We’re not playing for championships in December, you’re playing for championships in March.”
Translation: Hell yes, we’re excited…but coach wants us to know we didn’t just win the NCAAs, so we still have to keep going…LOL.
-
South Dakota State scored 90 points in the FIRST HALF! Up 92-37 over Savannah State with 18 minutes left. Wow… (can’t find a box score anywhere, but tweets verify the score).
-
Bragg still on new Mexico’s team?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yes. Hasn’t played.
