Well I know one thing… I didn’t mean it to be, but I started this game thread. I think it was my first in all my years of being a board rat here, it will definitely be my last. Baaad mojo.
Possibly the worst loss in decades of being a fan. Is this the game we point to as the nail in the coffin this season, or does it motivate them to not let shit like this happen again? Iowa State on Feb 3 should be very telling.
We lose without griff tonight, finally getting his game on
@patoh3 uh, we were here with 16 seconds not 55 and lost it. Play smart!
16 seconds and a 4 pt lead, and now tied? Damn
@SlimShaddy54 agree. And Storr 0-5, was hoping for a better game from him
@SlimShaddy54 still can’t believe they beat us at home. Sure glad we didn’t trot out that same energy today
Curious what y’all think our chances are against Houston. Never thought I’d not like our chances against anyone at home. But losing to WV earlier shook my faith a bit. (tho they did just beat ISU recently) Vegas has Houston by 2. Which is about the same as last year when we were 1.5-point home underdogs to the Cougars (before our 79-65 victory). Just feels different this year.
Houston leads the country in adjusted defensive efficiency. On Wednesday, the Cougars held Utah to 36 points.
Kansas connects on a sad 6.7 fools gold three-pointers per game (284th in college basketball) at a 33.3% rate (209th in college basketball).
Unless Storr or Griffen find their offensive fire, I think we could be in for a long game. I was going to give a final score prediction, but my head and my heart are too far apart. Any thoughts from those wiser than me? Hopefully positive ones?
I can’t remember all the times some under achiever caught fire and went off and had the game of their career against us. Sure would like to see that scenario reversed against the Cougs and Storr drop 20+ on them.
@wissox Well said. Hard to argue too much with that kind of success. And anyways, who would we want to replace him with?
Ha, I was typing about Juan and then see 5 comments just like it
Juan - 4 TOs, 50% FTs, 1-6 FGs, not his best night, but still won comfortably
Hunt and one! Haven’t seen that much lately
Storr sighting too!
Flory swatting like Withey, love it
Only Hunt can miss from 6”,lol
