Nobody outside of your own fans care about your game, so for the sake of American economic productivity on Wednesday, could you please not go to OT?
Thanks.
Thanks.
Dear Kansas and Michigan State:
- Thread starter TheDude1
- Start date
I've been a bit concerned about this. IDK what it is about MSU, but their games always seem to take forever. I hate it when UK gets the 9:00 timeslot and MSU (vs anyone) is in the 7:00 slot. Ugh.
Everyone is just handing KU the win in that game, but I wouldn't be surprised if State gives them a scare or steals it at the end.
9:30 EST games on a weeknight should be banned. Especially when both teams are in that time zone.
I miss Central time zone. It was made for college basketball.
Went EST to CST then back to EST.
I'm sure KU has played some early games before but I can only recall the late games. Just happy that I won't have to stay up watching them choke away another game to MSU.
No disrespect to MSU, but KU/Duke-KU/UK-Duke/UK will always be the marquee game.
I have to get off work early to watch the game. 7:00 EST equates to 3:00 here in Alaska. Wishing we had the night cap myself.
Except for like, last year when Duke and MSU were #1 and #2 in the country. And the game was a lot more enjoyable than the KU / UK game. And had more viewers and a higher rating.

last years KU/UK game was an abomination to basketball. I have pretended it didn't happen and I recommend you do the same.
Was it worse than the 2014 game, where UK beat KU by 32?
that game didn't happen either.
Yep and if MSU lands one of Carey/Stewart we will be top 5 or better to start next year.
And in 2013, Kentucky was #1 and MSU was #2 when they played. Another great game.
And in 2015, MSU and Kansas played an epic game.
I bet UK and Duke fans will be on their feet rooting for MSU if we are in the game late in the 2nd though 
No disrespect to your not disrespecting, but it changes from year to year. On years when MSU has some marque players and is highly ranked, those games are highly anticipated.
Kansas is preseason #1 right? I, for one, am very interested in their game.
Do people actually go to bed before Midnight anyway?
Hey that game was a small awakening for Self. Was after that it seemed like Self went away from forcing the ball down low and let that KU team start launching 3s and playing 4out-1in.

Those people with small children and who wake up early, sure, you SOB
Has nothing to do with the quality of play---Im talking about the national media attention it will receive. MSU is a tough matchup everytime.
average rank for the 4 schools when they are in this game:
UK:2.5
Duke:4.25
KU:5.625
MSU:13.25 (they were unranked in the first game so i gave them 26 for that game).
Notes: Kentucky is the most consistent, MSU has done the better job in playing up to the competition. Best game: MSU 78- UK 74 When both were ranked 2 and 1. Worst game: UK 72-KU 40. 32 point blowout that wasn't even that close.

I have erased those memories using drugs and electric shock.
