Jayhawks / Bearcats 12:00 CT

Well that was ugly.
Not so fun with the box score. where to start...
3PT FGs
KU: 4-18
Cincy: 12-31
I'm sure ya'll can do the math on that point differential.
REBOUNDS
KU: 29
Cincy: 40
Non-box score related stuff:
-- Cincy did a great job on defense. They limited Melvin and Elmarko from getting to the rim.
-- The Cincy big had a monster game. way over his average for points. 28 pts, 8 boards.
-- Flory was great. Hustled and seemed energized. But he let the big dude score 28 points. Well, he was one of a few at least.
-- I don't buy the trap game B.S. No team should not be prepared to play in any competition.
-- That's a really bad home loss. That will count against us in the NCAA seedings.
-- DP played. go figure.

Do we suck now? Can we beat K-State?
-
@nuleafjhawk In response to your question the answer to your million is will K/State beat us is drum roll please - - - -- YES they sure will if we play like we did today playing like absolute dog s = = =/ and there you have it you heard it here. Monday could get really ugly, real fast
dog s - - -

Anyone can beat the team that played today we are 1 hour from midnight central time. When that time hits we must all move focus forward to Monday.
-
On a brighter note, KU Women beat KSU in Manhattan, first sweep since 2013.
Go KU Women...

@ROCKCHALK2025 I've been out of the country for a week, with no cell service and purposely avoided any TV. That's why I asked. It looks like we're going downhill fast.
-
That was ugly. We looked disjointed. Maybe looking ahead to Monday. I also wonder if the DP press from the past week had an impact.
-
A win on Monday would be nice but would still feel hollow and meaningless after what happened yesterday. I think things could get ugly. Houston is such a scrappy team and they fight so hard on the glass. It wouldn't surprise me if they got 30 offensive rebounds and 40+ second chance points against us.
-
@HoraceZontal Highly likely, me thinks!
-
@Jayhawk_69 I AGREE! Concerned. If Houston out hustles us and wins big, the the rest of the season is psychologically doomed.
-
Less concerned with the quality of the loss as the time of season. Reaallly need to groove immediately. Hopefully they have a switch they flip on. Talent is there
-
Goal hasn't changed. The path to it has become harder. We will see what these men are made of come Monday. Will they defend the home court on Big Monday? Can they beat an angry Houston team? Can they show their desire? That's what I will be looking for. As @approxinfinity said, we've been in this position before during the streak and imagine the pressure of that on a team. All the pressure seems to be on and against DP. Will he rise to the occasion? Must See TV for me. #RockChalk

@Jayhawk_69 a win Monday would be massive imo, and would put us right back on track, especially if our core players all play fairly well to well.
