Other Games Tonight
-
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.

Hopefully, that was more fun.
-
@wissox It is astonishing to me that Happ has that weakness…he is a great player.
-
@mayjay Madison is a spectacular city so we enjoyed every part of our time except of course for the game!
-
@KUSTEVE He’s regressed. Was 65% as a freshman, 50’s and below since. Being the featured guy on O has added some pressure with FT’s. I really don’t understand it.
-
@wissox Free throw shooting is a skill. With his ability, he could be an 80% ft shooter.
-
Kentucky sucks. Here is the start of their NIT run.
-
Michigan St making KU look good today with a road win at tOSU.
-
@Kcmatt7 Alabama isn’t very good either. Yikes!
-
Refs have screwed Bama today too several times. Like blatant misses.
-
Twice, basic physics alone would have proven the ball couldnt have gone the direction it did without UK fouling or tipping the ball. Yet benefit goes to UK. Unbelievable. The type of thing that makes you think games are rigged…
-
I seriously wonder why refs call the game from the floor. We have better views from the couch lol.
-
@Kcmatt7 They average 26.4 free-throws per game and give up 15.5 free-throws per game. They might lead the country in free-throw differential. If not, they are up there. Standard Kentucky.
-
Don’t look now , but after looking like a pile of luke warm dog doo for the 1st half - -K-State is killing Tech with their defense here in the 2nd half. - -Tech coming un raffled . - -mercy these two teams play un-believable defense right in your jock. - -As much as I hate it old Squeaky has them playing just un-real defense. - -it sucks but yet got to give props where props are deserved
-
It’s looking like things are setting up for Tech to give KU a real run at a Big 12 title this season. Both of Tech’s games against KState are early on in conference with Dean Wade out. Wade will probably be back by the time KState and KU play their first conference game in February.
-
@KirkIsMyHinrich - -well looks like Tech will be a game up on us now
-
At least we’re not Nevada getting blown out at a bad New Mexico by almost 30. Calrton Bragg had 9 points for the Lobos tonight.
-
Texass wvu going to wire
-
Holy crap - what’s the deal - -Iowa State down 38-30 to Oklahoma State at the half - - - Texas down b y 19 to Oklahoma State at the half/

are you watching either of these? - just channeling surfing back and forth = =not say they will end up losing - -I imagine Iowa State will come back - -but sure would help if both lost

ISU’s ranking was short lived 70 - 73 BU
Now let’s see if OU can beat TT in Lubbock.
-
Big let down game for ISU after winning their super bowl.
-
@BShark We can only hope these top teams beat each other up during the season. KU must take advantage. I can see ISU and TT splitting games. KU should split with ISU. TT is going to be tough in Lubbock. But they are due a few bad games. Baylor might beat TT in Waco.
-
@truehawk93 Hopefully KU starts playing better too. Could have easily beat ISU tbh.
-
Wow. KSU came back from down 21 to beat WVU. Would not want to be on that plane ride home with Huggy Bear!

Luka Doncic is so much better than Trae Young… The Atlanta Hawks!

So what happened in the creighton game? Some controversy?
