There’s a decent chance we both finish 6-6. Which isn’t ideal, but their meltdown is very funny.
I’d probably cry if we went 6-6 and they went 5-7. If they play like they did today Colorado beats them.
@FarmerJayhawk listened to post game and it sounds like Dp is unlikely to play Tuesday. I honestly think the only reason they left us ranked is so it’s a feather in Dooks cap. Unfortunately I don’t give us much of chance, 25+ point loss without DP and a 15 point loss with him. We are athletic but dint know how to play basketball, Dook can do both.
@SlimShaddy54 KSU was preseason top 20, the trendy pick for B12 champions and had Johnson as a heisman hopeful. I don’t think anyone had Kansas winning more than 7 or 8 games. Our season has been disappointing with losing to our rivals and giving away 2 games in the final minute but not the same as theirs.
KSU escapes Stillwater 14-6 
, they really did play their best game far and away in Lawrence
Volleyball avenged a five set loss in Lawrence by sweeping the Mildcats in Methattan.
Border order!! The ladies just beat Fizzou in the T-Mobile center 82-77 to improve to 4-0 on their season. I don’t care if it’s debate or equestrian beating them clowns in anything makes me happy.
Ngala seems to be a better player than Mari and Elmarko at this point wish he would get a few more minutes.
The game went about how I figured it would. Flory needs to play hard all the time not just in little spurts. Is Elmarko Jackson the worst 5 star player in recorded history? How the hell was he a top 20 recruit. He showed flashes as a freshman but good god he looks lost as a player can be on both ends.
@BeddieKU23 100% true my friend, make a guy wonder if we didn’t pay the wrong recruit. Maybe he can be this teams Remy Martin
@drgnslayr lots of rumors flying around right now, which is normal when stuff like this happens. Hearing his team is saying it’s not worth it for him to play in these type of games.
Stinks I was considering going my myself with how cheap tickets looked. This is starting to take a very interesting turn here. Self said he hasn’t practiced this week at all and is still tight. Is he just gonna play in the high profile games and sit the rest of the time? Two weeks in and the season seems F’d already
@BeddieKU23 I still think we can grow into a solid team, we just have a long ways to go but heck the last few. years we beat a lot of high profile teams early because we were already what we were. While the others had a much higher ceiling
@BeddieKU23 hard to think otherwise watching us and Dook at this point. With Dp it’s likely a 10-15 point loss without him it’s 25 plus IMO.
@Kcmatt7 interesting, I’m hoping he’s the clear cut one by the end of the season which would in turn mean we had a pretty good year.
@Kcmatt7 we’ll see how it goes here but I’d rank him As about the 6th best player right now. Most of the mock drafts I’ve seen haven’t been updated since play started. It will stink if he goes number 2 and we do nothing with him. That much I know lol
@dylans said in Texas A&M CC:
If I was an NBA GM I’d be very curious about all Peterson’s soft tissue injuries. At this point I absolutely would not draft him with a top 5 pick. He’s that good, but if Peterson can only play 20 minutes once a week in college, he’ll never make an NBA schedule.
Shades of late career Eric Berry. This is concerning.
DP isn’t getting picked top 5 regardless of his injury issues. This freshman class is very stout. I’d guess he goes 8-12 at this point. He’s definitely not the best freshman in CBB this year.
Mark me as scared that the dook game will resemble the 2014 UK game especially without DP.
@FarmerJayhawk said in Other games 2025-2026:
It’s cool to see TGF out there for Gonzaga. He’s an easy guy to root for.
I was so high on him coming here, it sucks in a way but glad he is playing.
Definitely had a conscientious effort on the glass and defense tonight. Man Elmarko just looks like complete horse manure and that maybe offensive to the manure. Ngala looks like much a better player at this point, Elmarko is looking like the next Juan where he never gets pulled no matter what. He got schooled repeatedly to the rim and was so loose with his dribble. He definitely gets the shit bird of the night award.
Definitely becoming. A major concern with Peterson, this team isn’t going .500 without him. A positive is maybe we can get the other guys going a bit here. They face guarded DP the whole game Friday and said someone else beat us. That someone else never got off the bus, Tiller had a good first but no else graded out as passing
@BShark Elmarko and Mari are huge disappointments for guys that have been in the program for multiple years.
Sounds like we have some extra motivation for the last two games, let’s get this for Coach and his family. Prayers to Kelly
I think at this point if it was released we have been involved in a gambling scandal dating back the last few years in football. I would a 110% buy it without thinking twice.
Capping off another great KU sports weekend, let me go vomit
Lance had to be more aggressive folks, not going for that 4th and 2 on as as big of a play as any today. We have to stop playing not to lose in close games. It has not worked for 2 years. Lance would have a winning record here and 4 bowl games in 5 years if we could figure out close games.
I’ve been nearly speechless, I literally turned off the game and sat for about 20 minutes before moving. These last few years of being a Jayhawk football fan may have shaved multiple years off my life. I told my son when we went for the FG there we are playing to lose by 1 not win the game. We missed and lost by 4, we had about a dozen plays that should’ve been made to change the out come. The officiating was terrible and those guys should be reprimanded. First off the hold was weak and zero to do with the pick. Add in we were called for DPI and holding several times a piece while they weren’t. Several times you could’ve called them for the same exact thing. Their last drive they got a free timeout and an extra 12 yards when the players knee was clearly down, even circled out on the screen. The clock never started after that til they snapped it and that was wrong. Once the ball was spotted correctly it should’ve started again. I’ve come to the conclusion God hates Kansas football. The defense played their best game for 3 and 7/8 quarters. JD had one of his best games of the year and we still lost.
I don’t see a hold there and very late flag Vegas paged it in
@Crimsonorblue22 said in Zona fb:
Perfect pass!
Two great plays by JD throw it away and lived to play another down. Then the perfect drop in to E-man
@rockchalkjayhawk at this point it’s a proven fact Self sucks at roster construction. Did we give up a top 5 basketball program for. 5-7 win football team is the question of the day.
The worst realization for me is we aren’t winning this conference with this team. We aren’t beating Houston, BYU, Baylor, Tech and Arizona. We aren’t beating Duke next week but hope we can sweep KSU and make it outta the first weekend in March for only the second time since 2018.
@approxinfinity I agree if we switched periodically, it could work better. White and Kohl trying to guard a 7 footer didn’t work and seldomly will.
@benshawks08 Yes I’ve hated the switching everything we have done the last 5 years. It’s for teams that can’t play defense IMO. It only worked in 2022 and that team was very average defensively. Not sure how many times their bigs got switched to a guard and went in for a dunk but it seemed like about 50.
@TYOHawk I’m just not sold at this point, but it is very early and I probably shouldn’t jump to conclusions.
Worried we are wasting a generational talent this season because we don’t have the pieces around him
Well that wasn’t our best half, not super worried this early in the season. We have to learn to play as a unit defensively. No help and very little rotation my biggest concern is we have zero post presence at all. Flory was bullied all night long man I miss Zuby feel like he is the missing link. We need a big dude down there that has girth. Elmarko maybe worse than his freshman year at this point so that’s disappointing. We lack anyone that can get to the rim consistently outside of Peterson. To me the best player on the floor won in Wilson.
I don’t think awe will shoot that good second half, would love some post presence
Wisconsins AD announced Fickell will be returning as head football coach in 2026. So that’s prob a bullet dodge, bet he gets a new OC tho lol
Broncos are turning to the chiefs of last season. Winning games they have zero business doing so.
@SlimShaddy54 said in UNC Matchup Friday Night:
I think our problem possibly for this game will be trying to match up with their front line
Right our lack of shooting consistently concerns me we will need to beat their big guys up and down the floor while trying to make them guard on the perimeter
I’m thinking like we go out there pressure them full court and push the ball down the floor. I think their bigs will have a good game on our smaller less experienced Flory.
It will be interesting to see the match up because of the size advantage they have. Normally I’d say bring them out and make them guard the perimeter but I’m not sure we have guys that can do that.
