I thought AZ took way too long bringing the ball up with only 16 seconds left. I didn't think they were even going to get a shot off. AZ proved me wrong. Winner winner, chicken dinner; so long Iowa St

I sure hope KU shoots a much higher percentage tonight. 22/58 from the field last night 38% won't be enough against Houston. Maybe the different floor will help. Got to win this fellas.

It seemed like Kansas was either not prepared for their double team/ trap on the perimeter or TCU was just forcing KU out of their offensive flow and that caused some bad offense. They did adjust and then the 2nd half became the ref show and just about every offensive possession became a foul. Flory should have gotten the Ball more but it definitely seemed like we struggled against their pressure.

He's actually had less then 6 shot attempts in 4 of their last 5 games so its been going on of late.

Do you think the coaching staff would mind if I meet with the team before tonight's game during shootaround and show the guards how KU guards are supposed to feed the bear in the post? I dream about that lob pass to DMac and our other post players. Feed the damn bear; its a thing of true beauty.

I just don't understand why our guards aren't getting the ball to Flory more on offense. In 27 min last night, Flory only had 5 shots. He made all of them. Has our coaching staff just stopped coaching the entry pass into the paint or is Flory not getting position for the pass? 5/5 in 27 minutes. Come on guys.

Zubby with 21 pts, 10 rbs and 3 blocks in today's St John win

Iowa St and Tx Tech are getting ready to tip off. I think Iowa St has a shoulder chip from their 5th place seating. For all the complaining by KSt players about the floor, both KSt and BYU shot lights out: KSt shot 51% from the field; 57% from 3 and BYU shot 55% from the field and 34% from 3. I don't know if the floor has much to do with shooting; it would seem to be more of a factor on TOs. The gray floor is still better than Oregon's mess/distractin of a floor.

The UFL had its draft in January; I didn't hear anything about it. Our man, Jason Bean was selected by the new team, Louisville Kings. The Kings play Birmingham on Friday, March 27 at 8 E on FOX. Jason is such a competitor, I think he will do well in the UFL.

Since KU's game is on ESPN, get ready to watch the beginning of the game on one of the other ESPN channels. HULU seems to have all the alternate channels. There's nothing worse than not seeing the beginning of the game. Unless of course Peterson doesn't play and KU gets bombed again. Oi

JuggerNOT

Good grief, behind at the half. This team.........

Darryn just take the bunnie

OK, this will date me but come on now, here are the first names of the Bearcats top scorers: Baba, Jizzle, Day Day, Shon and Mustapha. This is a must win for KU and I hope our dudes don't think they can just phone in a win.

Tre has been slowed by an oral infection that required recent surgery. OUCH

Peterson's defense is nowhere near the level of his offense. He looks like the freshman he is on defense. I'm sure the NBA will teach him defense.

@Jayhawk_69 it’s very interesting considering Self announced today DP is a 100% go for tomorrow. Vegas usually isn’t too far off on these things.

The oddsmaker on the KState game in Manhattan had us favored by 4.5 if I remember correctly. I worry that poor soul is pushing up cacti in the Nevada desert. Or, at least mopping the buffet floors.

If Flory, Bryson and Tre play defense like they did in the 2nd half of the AZ win, there may be an oddsmaker buried in the desert by 3pm. RC baby, make them eat sand.

ESPN has the game at 6.5pts. I don't think so. Yes, Hilton will be rocking with KU hatred and ISt has won its last 3 games against KU there. We've got to keep Flory and Bryson on the floor; both have done much better at avoiding foul problems. Forwards Momcilovic 18 pts and Jefferson 17 pts must be slowed down like our earlier win where they scored 11 and 12 respectively. Bill is 14-9 at Hilton so KU must get back to winning there. It's been announced that Peterson will start. I wonder if ISt fans will stay classy or bring the TxTech cheer to the game. Noon Central on ABC. RC

Goodness, what a night for top seed upsets: IowaSt #5, Nebr #7, Illinois #8 and North Car #11 all lost.

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

But, Tiller seems to have a good game, then follows it with a 4 or 6 pt underwhelming game. We need consistency Bryson, come on now.

Tommy Loyd's comments after the game were interesting; he didn't whine about officiating or anything else. Of course when your team is 23-1, ranked number 1 and had to play an away game in an arena where the home team is 38-0 on Monday Nights, most AZ reporters and fans weren't too upset. I found the comments in my google news feed. Nice win. On to #5 ISt. Man, what a conference.
