Other Big-12 action
-
For those that haven’t paid attention to anything other then KU.
Tech- Opened the season playing 2 powder puffs. 2-0. Plays 3 more until Iowa (11/28) & Louisville (12/10). As usual they play practically no one before conference play.
Baylor- Crushed in game 1 but blew a big lead against Washington and is 1-1. Should have beat UW.
Texas- Easy game in the opener, beat an over ranked Purdue squad in game 2 on the road. Nice to see Andrew Jones back after his fight with Cancer. The road victory at Purdue will be big for them come tourney time.
Iowa St- Easy opener followed by a loss to Oregon St. Not good.
Oklahoma won their opener and followed it up with a W against Minnesota. They won’t play a ranked team currently until end of January.
K-ST- Won a closer then expected opener then needed OT to beat a bad UNLV squad. They are not good, at all.
OSU- Struggled in the opener but won by 5. Beat UMKC by 18 over the weekend.
TCU- Beat a D-3 team in the opener. Enough said.
West Virginia- Beat Akron by 10 in the opener. Scored 94, gave up 84. Has Huggy lost the defense??? Non Conference schedule is horrible until late December when they play Ohio St.
-
ISU played the team Utah beat by 94 in game one. They probably wouldn’t even be a good dii team. Typical weak schedules for the league outside of KU.
-
@BShark that should tell Bryce all he needs to know
-
I watched Baylor. Refs seriously engineered that game to WA. Observation…BU guards and bigs on whole seem better than our allotment. Esp their bigs. Our wings are better.
-
Charlie Moore playing on FS1 right now against Iowa.

DePaul killin it right now
-
@jayballer73 Yeah, I love it. 22 point blowout so far. Refs trying to give gifts to the suckeyes and they’re still not doing anything with it.

Depaul not looking bad
-
Texas Tech plays here at Depaul in a few weeks. Not sure I’ll be able to go but this game has me really intrigued about Depaul.

looks like a bunch of free ballers - -wide open flow

Houston is on espn3 tmrw, I’m anxious to see grimes.
-
I’m anxious to go into Morgantown, Ames and Manhattan this year. It’s payback time! Guess it will be that at most of the Big 12 venues…

I raked my leaves for the 2nd time this weekend - -but the wind blowing overnight last night and today you could never tell it. - -Sooo round 3 this weekend - -great lol. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
I live in a neighborhood shaded with huge oak trees. I wait it out on raking until other neighbors get started because otherwise I’m the guy who has to rake up most of the leaves in the neighborhood because of the wind.

Not Big 12 action BUT our beloved Kentucky wildcats lmao. - - We think Doke terrible shooting Free throws ? - - - -Check out whitney Whitey or whatever the hell his name is for Kentucky. - -2-7 on the year and mercy hope they have extra backboards - -real heat checks missiles - - really really ugly
-
Good game to watch – Memphis and Oregon at 8:00 -Oklahoma on at 10:00
-
@jayballer73 Kentucky is struggling a bit in the first half.
-
Didn’t realize BUT Sam Cunliffe killing Kentucky. - - we remember Sam Cunliffe don’t we ? - -Arizona State - - - KU – -7 Now Evansville. - -He score 15 points in the 1st half against Kentucky

Ya Cunliffe is killing them - transferred from KU now at Evansville
-
Should I feel bad that I don’t remember him?
-
It’s hard to get a read on a lot of teams so far this year. I don’t think I have seen anyone that I was really impressed with so far. Teams that have looked good have looked good against very weak teams. Those that have played strong opponents have generally looked fairly shaky, even in wins. Lots of bad basketball all around so far.

been just a couple of years ago he was here at KU played for Arizona State before us - -the reason you don’t remember him cause he barely saw the floor - - I know he was here on our 2017-18 roster.
-
@rockchalkwyo yes!
-
@Crimsonorblue22 With the way he’s playing tonight I would have to agree.
-
@justanotherfan Michigan State was supposed to be great but then they went and lost to Kentucky who we are seeing has their own issues as well. I’d say I don’t really see 1-2 teams that have separated themselves at this point.
-
Crimsonorblue22 said:
@rockchalkwyo yes!
Nah. Cunliffe suuuuucked.
People will look at his points tonight but he also has 6 turnovers and 0 asts.

kind of hard to say a guy sucks when he didn’t even hardly touch the floor at Ku - -you can’t say a guy sucks in probably 10 whole minutes while he was here. - tell ya what - -doubt you hear Kentucky saying he sucks -he ate them a new ass in the 1st half of this game lmao

I stand by my yes! Clutch throws

Who do you kick off the current team for him. Maybe he’s better than Braun right now but long term I don’t like that move.
-

Huge game for Sam - -CLUTCH TIME
-
@BShark for Sam?, nobody
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Yeah that’s what I thought.
I can’t blame anyone for not remembering him. He barely played.
-
Achiuwa looks like a presence…

Would have been nice if Bill ever switched to a 4 guard for real.
-
@Kcmatt7 1 year of him or 3-4 of Jalen.

Next year is the year. Perfect roster for it.

I’m just not big on Jalen.
Slow footed below the rim player.
-
Kentucky’s 52 game streak of not losing to unranked at home - - -GONE. – 1st win against a # 1 team for Evansville

Honestly a tough decision imo.
Basically a high impact this year, better chance of a natty vs more long term stability as we weather the NOA storm.

Just because Bill always finds a way, I’m always in win now mode.

Good news though, his circle realizes he is a 4 man so we aren’t dealing with bad whispers in his ear.
I think he shines as an upperclassman stretch 4.
-
@BShark I followed his sister the track star, they are an amazing family of stud girls, and Sam.
-
Hilarious, just today I saw the ultimate jinx article on ESPN. Kentucky will probably stay undefeated for a long while with their easy schedule the next month and a half!
Here’s the link! https://www.espn.com/mens-college-basketball/story/_/id/28052900/get-used-kentucky-no-1

When reading this - reads as insane as it sounds. The question I ask here REALLY isn’t a question at all – not even close , BUT I’ll post it anyways
Here it is : - -Soooo which is worse ? - -KU losing to Duke the # 4 ranked team in our 1st game turning the ball over 28 times on a Neutral floor - - Duke the soon to be the # 1 team - - OR :
Kentucky ranked # 1 playing an unranked Evansville at Rupp where they had a 52 game winning streak against unranked opponents - -Evansville pretty much lead from wire to wire.
Not even a close decision - - Kentucky sucked tonight for sure - -far worse loss – YES – Or NO
-
Iowa St dominates the 2nd half to beat Northern Illinois. They were losing at half. 3-25 from deep.
TCU with an easy win at home. Desmond Bane is going to put up big numbers all season, may lead the Big-12 in scoring. 25, 7, 5 line
Texas goes to 3-0
Oklahoma beats Oregon St who had beat Iowa St. Looks like Kristan Doolittle is going to have a big year. Toughed it out at OU after some issues and injuries. Austin Reeves seems to be thriving with Lon after leaving Marsha
