Non-KU Games

The Zags are one of the few teams that’s going to use that 2 big lineup so the right scheme executed a high level can overcome that. I’d like to see a good team zone them up because I don’t think they have the perimeter shooting they had last year.

@BeddieKU23 said in Non-KU Games:
Gonzaga is the worst matchup in the country for KU imo. Timme when he plays like that will be POY. We have nothing that could stop him from getting 30+. Holmgren is the shot blocker among other things. Imagine Dave trying to finesse score his way over a 7 footer with great block instincts. We’d feed the post anyway like usual and lose trying. I’m not saying Gonzaga is a better team overall, I just think they are the worst matchup for KU.
Gonzaga’s guard play isn’t even close to as good as last season. We know what Bolton is, Nembhard is the catalyst but more of a playmaker then scorer. They have the two freshman guards KU recruited + Julian Strawther a wing KU was after that I liked a good deal.
I think they caught Texas at the right time. Texas was without Vandy transfer Disu that’s supposed to be a big part of their frontcourt. What was left to guard the Zag’s frontcourt was a few 6’8 types and that’s not going to cut it. If you take away Timme going 15-19 from the field Gonzaga shot 42%. This is an outlier game for Gonzaga overall. The game simply came down to Texas inability to stop one guy. Texas definitely looked like a team that doesn’t know how to play with each other against good teams yet. 2nd game in a tough environment on the road. Might see a different outcome if they played in March
As I’ve read more about this freshman I’d have to agree. Looks like they are the team to beat right now and likely will stay that way most of the year.
-
@benshawks08 no, they won’t. Will get beat up on the inside by a team that bodies up and has weight, no outide shooting.
-
Checking out Shaka Smart against the Illini. Then the Badgers got Providence.
-
Missouri down 9 to UMKC at the half.
-
@BShark I don’t want to play them! So insignificant! They should test them first! For everything. Make their fans have vax cards
-
Looks like our old friend Shaka pulled off the upset over Illinois.
Guessing that the Marquette fan base will give him a lot more slack than he had at Texas.
-
ROO UP
-
80-66 Roos. Final.
-
ROOS WIN 80-66
MUCK FIZZOU
-
Mizzou, OU, and Texas. Hell of a last few days for the SEC
-
@nwhawkfan I’m not sure if you watched but Illini didn’t have Kofi Cockburn playing and still had a 10 point lead through most of the 2nd half. Then Underwood inexplicably let one of his guards Carbelo throw the game away. He committed turnover after turnover, and/or poor shot after poor shot. I still cheer for Illinois a bit as a native of that state and I was really pretty pissed off at the result. Brad really blew it.
-
Wow, last time I saw a Roos score they were losing by 40 to Dotson & McCormack’s career day at the Sprint Center. Good to see Methzu still sucks
-
Bryce Thompson’s stellar shooting at KU translating well to Oklahoma St so far.
In 3 games shooting a blistering, wait for it…
40% FG, 27% 3ptFG%, 33% FT%, 0 assists in 78 minutes.

At what point should have Gard taken the ball away from Crowl and Carlson? Didn’t see the game but they went a combined 2-17 from the field. Including Hepburn they were 4-25. Rest of team shot 45%. Wow.

May have avoided another Connor, possible another over ranked recruit on top of that sometimes just not a good fit. Connor was NOT a god fit. - - Grimes struggled here Transferred worked out better - - might of dodged a bullet

Got popped in Orange County (Chapel Hill, Hillsborough) instead of Durham too. Awk.
-
@Crimsonorblue22 It’ll be interesting to see how Coach K handles this compared to Coach Self in the Wilson case. He could suspend him for a game or two, or argue that he only “aided and abetted” his grandson and give him a slap on the wrist. Splitting hairs perhaps, but I’ll bet it’s the latter.
-
Paolo will get suspended for minutes, I’m telling you. Minutes!
-
@FarmerJayhawk No doubt a stern talking to will be had as well.
-
He’ll fall on the floor, “my back”
-
@FarmerJayhawk did he not play in the last game?

Going out like a weak chump, let the University handle the matter. That’s that leader of young men that I was talking about a little over a week ago.
-
@BeddieKU23 Badgers were up against it without Jonathan Davis. He’s a pretty decent guard/forward hybrid. His scoring was sorely missed and we really couldn’t find buckets in that game. I’m not familiar enough with Crowl and Carlson to know. It was the first game i could watch, and neither played much last season. Crowl is supposed to be a stretch four, but his wide open threes were barely drawing front of the iron. He’s been decent so far against a couple of lightweights but struggled for sure last night.
-
A couple of things about watching other games tonight .
!st I didn’t know I think they showed since 2018 the 3 top winningest teams was 1 - - Gonzaga - - -2 Houston - -& 3 Virginia -had no idea.
2nd. I don’t get this and I officiated for like 15 yrs but watching the Kentucky game, And Cal being Cal. -Kentucky player got a block called on him and Cal wasn’t happy with that at all - So during a timeout Cal left not only the Coaching box but walked clear out underneath the basket inside the restricted circle and was beefing with the Ref. - Nothing was done - -Not a T nothing
I know as an official live situation or dead ball situation nobody is to come onto the floor especially that far as under the basket and confront an official about a call - no violently -BUT STILL out on the floor , in that situation and that far off the Bench and on the flor that is trying to show an official up - that’s not going to get you any where just intimidation - -Tha’ts Cal - not quite sure why he got no T
-
UNC still not good. Down by 5 at Charleston
-
Heels managed to pull it out. Michigan not so lucky as Seton Hall comes back to win.
And Oregon gets absolutely clobbered as BYU goes into Portland and beats the Ducks by 32.
-
Seton Hall looked like an underrated team coming into the season. Veteran roster there with lots of size so not surprised they knocked off a young Michigan team. The Oregon drubbing was not expected especially at home. That’s a really bad loss.
-
Looks like a bit of a rebuild year for Wisconsin, very young team. Yeah Davis was avg 15 a game, why did he miss the game?
-
The people who voted Virginia in the Top 25 need to find a new hobby!

Did N Carolina end up getting beat or did they win ?

@BeddieKU23 some sort of mysterious “lower body injury”. Your guess is as good as mine as to what that means.

UNC won by 11

Absolutely correct, except wrong root. Take off the s, and pronounce with a long i and a long u, as in “a minute punishment.”
-
@BeddieKU23 Technically a neutral court loss since they played in Portland and not Eugene. Still, that’s the equivalent of a bad KU loss at Sprint (oops, T-Mobile) Center.
-
Maryland taken down by 2005 darling George Mason. Turg aint gonna be happy. Jury is still out on one my Jayhawk Favs if can really take MD to the promised land.
-
This NCSU/OSU game is brutal. Neither team is at 40% from the floor. 31-27 with 18:19 to go
-
Michigan St beats Butler by 21 on the road. Michigan St seems decent.
