This was on my wall in college. Still works today.

Teams that played BYU with Saunders played a much better version of BYU.

Any of the B12 leaders that still have BYU on their schedule will have an advantage. Not nearly the test that it was prior to Saturday.

@Texas-Hawk-10 said in Iowa St Favored By 6.5; I Don't Think So … Gamechat Thread - 2/14 12:00 CT:

I think if UH wins tomorrow, they're going to win the league outright again at 16-2, Arizona finishes second at 15-3, KU and Tech finish tied for 3rd at 14-4, and ISU finishes 5th at 13-5.

I think this is a pretty level-headed look ahead. A lot feels like it hinges on that Houston / Iowa State game tomorrow night.

I feel like I have to root for Iowa State to do some damage and keep hopes alive for KU to finish at the top in a tie.

Why is Baylor playing Louisville today?

Yeah.. I saw that too and did a double take. I'd love to know what that's all about. Very strange.

I saw a graphic on TV the first night of the olympics that highlighted the states with olympians and Kansas was not highlighted.

Should be interesting to see how the TT win @ AZ and our loss @ ISU plays out. Houston still wins.. BYU needs OT to get by Colorado in Provo. WVU knocks off UCF in Orlando.

Pretty eventful day. Houston is at the top, for now. Are they a #1 seed?

@Tallturd1 Man, media companies and tech platforms are heading into some uncharted seas on the edge of the first amendment.

Every game from this point forward is like a tournament game... You pick the round.

I think the guys actually figured out what the new level was after the WV and UCF games. The good news is they have adjusted and the results are excellent.

Coach mentioned in the post-game that a lot of teams, by this point in the season, know who they are and where their ceiling is. But for this team, he said that the he still doesn't know where the ceiling is, but he knows it's not where we are right now.

That is some of the best stuff I can recall him saying in February about a team.

I want to believe!

To my eye, he's improving/adjusting the way he is blocking and keeping the ball in play (giving teammates a chance to recover) rather than swatting it out of bounds. Anyone know if they keep stats on blocks out of bounds vs blocks that stay in?

Hope the rest of the team doesn't come down with it. Would have been interesting to ask Self what precautions are planned to make sure the virus doesn't rip through the rest of the team.

Some posters never get old

I gave my son one of the posters that I created for the Kansan in the 90s and told him to take it to the game for good luck..

If Flory and Bryson continue their rate of improvement and keep playing with this energy, we will compete with anyone, any night. As front courts go, they are making a case to be recognized as one of the best.

Agree... It was very physical.... and I thought there were a few calls that both teams could be upset about... but I guess I'm so used to the calls going against us that this game overall felt like a gift.

The refs allowed a lot of contact and there were lots of no calls that rewarded a guy being aggressive (e.g. Elmarko steal mentioned above, but also Awaka, etc.). That seemed to play into our favor a bit more than Arizona as we were the aggressor most of the night.

Player of the Game: Bidunga
MVP: AFH

Tiller continues to improve and was crucial.
Respect to Tommy Lloyd and Arizona. He took the high road post-game; that team is stacked.

"Best 6-25 game ever."

Among the many good things about tonight's game... it made me completely forget that the Chiefs didn't make the postseason and the Super Bowl was a crappy game.

I didn't repeat what was shown and said on instagram because it's far too easy for things to be fabricated and look real. But if it's not true, someone is going to a lot of effort to put DP and Coach in a bad light.

Some info circulating on instagram about what the source of the "flu-like symptoms" actually was.

Might have something to do with why Self was so jubilant (which reminded me of the post-game celebration after the OT win vs Missouri.)

Hearing he's out with the flu from students.
