Too Sooner to Give up OU-KU game thread
-
It seemed like the team had something to play for. Sure, OU got off to a hot start, but this team seems to have no resiliency. In their defense, it is a young team.
As good as D Lawson is, he doesn’t seem to be the leader that is needed to take a team on his shoulders the way others have.
-
Okay Bill: 17.6% from 3Pt is fools gold…
-
We’re 5/27 from three. That’s not lack of effort or lack of “want it more”, it’s just stone cold shooting on the road again.
-
Next
-
It’s so bad…grimes is coming back in
-
Sorry-- I meant that’s how many 3s OU has hit.
-
What, we haven’t lost this yet…
-
I mean Mitch looks lackadaisical out there. That never happens.
-
Charlie quick shot is in

Yeah this game has been over.
-
Big Dave powered that up and in
-
@DanR that is complete bs. Shots aren’t falling does not tell the entire story at all. There is more to the game than shooting. And this team has none of it. Plain and simple.
-
Cheap foul call…fricken refs
-
Dave got range
-
@Bwag a rare bank-dunk by Big Dave!
-
When this game was like 7 -6…I was thinking this is great…we’re starting well and we seem to have energy and McCormick is helping out…then down by 11 about 2 minutes later.

Me too…how quickly it got away

Range

@cragarhawk Why are you embarrassed? I don’t get it. I’m getting up tomorrow to go to work. No one’s going to laugh at me. They may ask what happened. But I just don’t get when people say they’re embarrassed.

It’s so bad that espn is giving ku points on Oklahoma buckets
-
Big Dave - FT Line jumper…maybe we will be a force by time of tournament. #1988

Love the Addidas sentencing notices at the bottom of the screen as we watch Silvia sit…
-
Did Fran just say you know a great player when you see one “like Frank Mason as a freshman”? Maybe I heard him wrong
-
4 minutes left in this tragedy
-
Only down 22…just need about 40 stops in tje last 3 minutes and we got this

Big Dave still hustling
-
So Grimes has a banked in 3 and 3 turnovers.
-
Loving Dave’s energy and hustle
-
Remember when we used to have only one or two awful performances per season?

A hero is born Teahan!

He only has 3 turnovers??? That’s the most surprising thing I’ve heard all night
-
I remember when our talent wasn’t all sitting on the bench injured

Thanks for making me laugh. I’m just going by Yahoo Sports box score. It sure as hell feels like more.

@wissox because as a fan I don’t like to accept getting beat by a worse team that simply plays harder, focused more on the task at hand. And hell yes. Just plain wanted to win more. And make zero mistake. That is 100% absolutely what has happened tonight. And on several other occasions this season that has absolutely caused the end of the streak. Not bullshit excuses about being 5 for whatever from 3 or this guy’s was out … waaaa waaaa waaaa. The ncaa screwed us. Blah blah blah. Getting hammered by 20 plus all night to a terrible team. That’s right. Terrible… Not even a remotely good basketball team. I have pride in teams that play hard and overachieve I.E. 2012… And thus will be realistic about the opposite type of team. Hence. Embarrassed

Last year was a struggle for about an 8 game stretch starting with washington…everybody was having career nights.
-
Career high for Dave with 15?

Yeah, but in those games at least we put in the work.
-
@cragarhawk Well when we’re forced to rely on guys who are not starters or even close to top ten team type players, these are the games we’re going to get. I don’t want to get into a peeing match with you, so you’ve had your say. My last word is I’m proud as heck to be a Jayhawk fan for the last 30+ years. I know you are too. RCJHKU
-
Fran just shaking trying to hold in his excitement.
-
Nice while it lasted.
-
it lasted a long long long long long… time
-
@wissox we’re all entitled to our own view bud. I respect you. But I don’t buy that at all. You think Bill had top ten talent at Tulsa and Oral Roberts? How did he take those teams so far? It wasn’t talent. It was fundamentals, defense, and effort. I don’t care if this team loses. I’m not embarrassed by losing. It speaks to the character of team, the players, and the coaches to lose in that manner. That’s my view
-
Streak is done…now, let’s win the NCAA Championship and put our little boards ongoing argument to rest!

He peed his leg. Was it left or right?
-
@Bwag both
-
8 assists on 27 made FG. This team is easy to defend when they don’t share the ball like tonight. It’s been a problem all season for KU. They have very seldom assisted on 50% or more of their made FG’s this year.
When that happens, it makes a team extremely easy to defend because there is no ball movement.
-
-
@Bwag yes
-
yes. They especially seem to forget how to pass on the road.
