I didn't know that DP wasn't playing until right before tip off and honestly thought we were just going to be over powered, but for the final 6+ minutes I was standing in front of my tv and seeing how wrong I had been. I thought our HEART, more than anything, was going to be the deciding factor and boy did they show it. What a memorable game, intense feeling, so much pride and giddy happiness all rolled up in one! So proud of the team. I haven't see Coach that happy since Muck Fizzou! We deserve all of these emotions considering what we saw the last few years. The chip is back @drgnslayr !!! #RockChalkJayhawk

@approxinfinity Glad to hear!!!! I have been battling a tough cold and just now feel better. Missed all of you.
MERRY CHRISTMAS KUBUCKETS!

This caught my eye!

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

Wore my 50th Anniversary tour of The Moody Blues DAYS OF FUTURE PASSED album tye-died tshirt today because it cements the time and place for where this program is to us fans who have been through thick and thin. I saw The Moody Blues in Cedar Park, TX and was a bucket list item for me and it was shortly after my husband passed. None of us thought we could actually win the game there in Arizona, but a lot of us just wanted to see a fair fight. I don't think that was the case at specific points in the contest.

Ride My SeeSaw is a classic and is what we experience with each new season, game, team, players, ups and downs, health, injuries and gut wrenching losses, but I still will hop on board the seesaw every day and support our Jayhawks.

I peeked in on the guys installing my new flooring! WooHoo 40 years I had carpet down. No more. Got my new deck in too.

I was too tense before the game to draw my attention away from just watching the game with my girls. There's a rule that when we watch together, no phones. We are in the moment so to speak. It was nerve wracking and disappointing at times but once we tied it, I knew we were going to pull it out for Scooter. I had been reflecting on the many times I talked with him and all the tributes that have been pouring in for him are all absolutely from the heart. He touched so many people and for the team to get that click on of how important a game it was, there was no stopping them. An angel was there for them. To see the joy and bewilderment of the team we all love and what we as fans witnessed is one of those games that will live in so many hearts for so many years to come.

I, personally, trust wholeheartedly our GOAT! And a fave broadcaster, Bill Raftery! And it's my late brother's birthday and asked for some little extra extra today . #RCJH

@approxinfinity True story. Saw Bob Marley in Hoch Auditorium on 12.6.1979 and it was by far the best concert ever. On YouTube there is a recording of this concert. The Journal World had many articles on it.

On another note, the passing of Jimmy Cliff brought back a sweet memory of seeing him in Austin at #SXSW one year. I took 4 of my albums to his show and met him after and he signed them all and when I told him that Follow My Mind was my favorite he kissed me on my cheek. When I tweeted this story and the picture of my 4 albums signed, I received a like from both Bob Marley's daughter Luna AND Jimmy Cliff's daughter Odessa. Royalty

What a fun Friday night!!! We've watched teams enough to know that we are fortunate to see Coach build the identity of what he wants and getting the results from the players. They have finally figured out how to play with DP rather than watching DP. For all the chatter about him earlier, he now seems to be poised to skyrocket into the stratosphere with endorsements out the wazoo if he continues on this path. Going into a hostile environment will amp up pressure to stop him and his cunningness will shine. Can't wait to watch!

Darryn Peterson is just one of four Kansas Freshmen to average 15.0+ PPG in school history:
Ben McLemore - 15.9
Josh Jackson - 16.3
Andrew Wiggins - 17.1
DARRYN PETERSON - 21.1 That's pretty impressive considering he hasn't played the same amount of time!

We are something special!

Felt similar to the intensity of both gold medal hockey games I watched, with a feeling of apprehension and tingly all over. Every emotion a full on thump to the ️ due to all the love I have for my #Jayhawks. I woke this morning thinking they understood the assignment and rose to the occasion. That's what I asked and boy did they deliver. We got 2 double pumps by Coach after. He yelled at them being soft during the tv time out. He was hitting up the former players behind the bench. He was in his element.

I'm losing my voice already!!
They understood the importance of this game and defending their court.

Coach had a week to plan and I'd say he knew what he wanted to do. Just needed players to execute and boy o boy have they ever.

@bskeet I saw where they were already a 3 seed after BYU. Every game improves on that seeding from here on out. Getting the dub at such a hard place for us is good conditioning for what is to come.
