Other Games Tonight
-
UNC is overated. It has one good win over Gonzaga and bad losses to Texas, Michigan and Kentucky. Sagarin and a Pomeroy will have trouble justifying having them as #5 and #6 with 3 loses.
The team I still don’t get is Virginia which is ranked in the top 5 by most everybody even when they have one of the softest schedule in Division I and their only decent win was over an average Wisconsin team and today, they beat up that powerhouse William & Mary. Maybe they will get a #1 seed again and make double history by losing to a #16 seed…again.
-
KSU 30-20 over Vanderbilt at the half.
-
Anyone remember KU recruiting Shakur Juiston who ended up at UNLV? He might have fit in well with all the injuries KU. He averages a double-double for UNLV this year and last. He’s out know with a leg injury, maybe for the rest of the year.
-
@Gorilla72 oh no! Hard life for him. I really wanted him.
-
Does anyone know what happened to Bol Bol? I noticed he hasn’t played in a while and just saw where he is out indefinitely, but never have seen what happened to him…
-
@Woodrow Been out for 3 games with a foot injury that is still being “evaluated”, and expected to miss a couple more I believe.
-
I’m sure bol bol will be protecting his draft stock.
-
hmmmm interesting - -I know that it’s probably pretty common but , I just happened to really pay attention to this I guess hadn’t really paid attention before.
was scrolling the basketball schedule from ESP{N today you know what I’m talking about where it shows all the games that’s being played - -time and such? - -Well looked at like how many tickets were available for certain game just out of curiousty as well as if there were any good games to watch -well showed the prices of tickets - -that’s where I thought it was crazy.
Looked at the Baylor game today for example and where it showed they had like 114 tickets for - - - 2.00 a piece - - -2.00 dollars ! ! ! - - K-State had 165 tickets for like 7.00 a piece - and then you loo at KU and we had like 7 tickets for 67 dollars apiece.
I know this is probably pretty common I>m sure but I just noticed this for the 1st time - -those 2 other prices are just crazy - -think it shows some perspective of the programs
-
I wouldn’t want to watch Baylor play for free.

lol

@BShark Baylor wouldn’t play for free, though.
-
Anybody know why hawk talk was switched from salty iguana to johnnys?
-
Like to see Mitch get going, sure he was bummed after his homecoming
-
@jayballer73 I wonder if you buy the 2.00 ticket if they ask you if you want to “supersize” it, like McDonalds…

Food sucks at Salty.
This isn’t the real reason obviously. I assume it’s financial.

ROFLMAO - - -you need to be nice lol - -I think the 2.00 fans MIGHT be asking where the Chuckie Cheese is at lol.

Princeton just won at Arizona State
-
Wish KU could play more teams like Nova and ASU. Well coached 4 out schemes give Bill problems. I just think he needs more experience coaching against them and he’d be nearly bulletproof.
-

typical scenario of where every team we play - it IS their game of the year - so typical of these teams - -the game with us IS their NCAA game
-
Asu so fortunate doke was hurt. Did Princeton storm the court? Don’t even know where it was at, but I hope they did, just cause of Hurley! Guess you just said it was at asu.

Think this game was at Arizona also
-
Are we done playing them? Somebody said it was just a 2 year deal. I really want to play them again.

I think we are done - -too bad would still like another shot – then again the way things have gone maybe we shouldn’t lol. - -ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
2 dollar tickets always have a surcharge. Probably 3 or 4 bucks. I use stubhub a lot. The higher the ticket the higher the surcharge.
-
@Woodrow wish I would have seen that game.
-
I actually saw 2 people storm the court
-
I quit watching KSU, they were up 21 and won by 1
-

They only ended up winning by 1 ? - - - when I checked on them - -it was half time & they were ahead 36-16 - -What the HELL happened ? ROCK CHALK ALL DDAY LONG BABY
-
Obviously the focus is on the Hawks tonight, but the slate for opening night in the Big 12 is pretty good. TT @ WVU, Texas @ KSU , and Iowa St @ Okie St.
Nothing like conference play in college basketball.
-
@Woodrow - I suppose we all know this, but lowest $ tickets at each of the other Big 12 games tonight are all $6.00. KU minimum tickets is $52. Per StubHub. There are some pretty good games for $6!
-
Foul fest over in Morgantown Wed night. It’s on ESPNU-Tex. Tech v. WV. 19 fouls for WV and 15 for Tech with 15 min left in the game. Ugly basketball
-
Tech gets a road win in Morgantown
-
All of a sudden Okie Lite went supernova to close the first half of their game.
-
@Woodrow did u see that charge at the end?
-
@Crimsonorblue22 I missed the end of it.
-
They just showed a replay of it
-
The league has looks to have taken a swing towards ugly offense and strong defensive play. We scored the most points tonight with 70. I’m not sure if its really good D or just terrible O, maybe a bit of both.

The Big 12 has 5 teams in KenPoms adjusted D rankings. Tech -1 , KSU - 5, OU - 7, KU - 8, and Texas -10.
So there is going to be some “ugly” ball played this year.
-
Also just saw where Bol Bol is done for the year
-
@Woodrow That’s funny. I saw this article, and searched to find who asked about him earlier when I had posted a reply so I could update. Found this thread, and boom, there you are, already on top of it!

protecting the goods. put up inflated numbers on a bad team and showed some inside/out ability. Saw it coming a million miles away
-
Red shirt him. Lol Did Bol Bol show enough to get drafted now? Or does he come back for a second season?
-
@dylans he doesn’t want to come back

@Woodrow It’s going to be a slug fest every game. Like the old Big East back in the day.
-
He’s definitely already gone. He never would have went to college if there was a better deal. He got everything he needed for 10 or so games to market himself as long as he’s healthy by the combine and workouts. Probably a top 10 pick as it stands now on his inside out ability at that size. Wasnt in school long enough for film to pick him apart. Protect the goods at all cost. Smart move
-
What happened to Wisconsin last night? 14 points at half? Did they miss shoot around??
-
@BeddieKU23 See my post on the game in general discussion. I don’t want to rehash it again
-
@BeddieKU23 By the way, they didn’t miss shoot around, I watched it!
-
I just read it. Oh man. I didn’t catch the game so I figured you did. Worse you attended it. Happ has always struggled from the line so I’m not surprised he was fouled in similar manner to Doke.
