Kansas at Iowa State

[schoonerwest]

Don’t know what to think about this one. Vegas has KU as the underdog which is extremely rare for them in a conference game. Iowa State is supposed to have a bunch of guys back who were injured earlier in the year so you know they’ll be ready to go. Kansas has been as inconsistent as any KU team I can remember. This could get ugly today.

Looking forward to this game. ISU's home court is always entertaining.

Yeah their crowd will be at their peak form today. It’s a pretty huge game.

This is usually the time of the year that KU really starts showing signs of who they’ll be in March but they haven’t come close to that yet in recent games. Still can’t shoot 3’s very well, can’t close games, still go through huge stretches in the game of terrible offense. I really don’t know what will happen today. Nothing would surprise me.

Doyou guys have Azubuike back?

Yes

Doyou guys have Azubuike back?

Never mind. Just read the home board. He’s out today.

Well, that sucks.

I don't care who players play for, I want to watch all teams 100%. What a bummer.

With that said, a "wrist injury"?

ISU by 5

Just got back from ankle....played one game, now he hurt his wrist. 7 feet of Nigerian charmin.

"Fellow Nigerians hearing the news of a wrist injury and can't play"

 

[lurkeraspect84]

This game is on pace to end 0-0

 

[lurkeraspect84]

Just like that KU hits a three, 4 minutes into the game, to take the lead.

 

[schoonerwest]

This game is on pace to end 0-0

And end in an hour and 10 minutes.

Brutal. Like 50 turnovers. Vick just traveled and double dribbled in the back court. Then turned it over on a wide open lay in...all in 7 secs.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I'm seeing more men scoring in the commercials than the game.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

I'm guessing student are still on break? The ISU crowd seems less rowdy.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Nice drive Dotson.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Dedric needs to stop shooting the 3 point shot. He's not hitting anything out there worth a damn.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Dotson might be as fast with the ball in his hands as he is without.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Shayok is everywhere for the Clones. The dude is ballin' his f'ing mind out.

 

[schoonerwest]

I’m still not sure what Quentin Grimes does for the team.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Damn....Grimes needed to see that 3 go down.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Good finish Grimes.

 

[ravenman10]

Grimes was solid last game with 16

 

[RockChalkRally]

Grimes has settled down after a rough start. We're going to need him to continue making progress.

 

[schoonerwest]

Grimes was solid last game with 16

Is he finally starting to get it? He’s been playing great since I posted that.

 

[lurkeraspect84]

announcer really missed chance to say "flip his wig" instead of blowing his top.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Picking up an administrative technical is as maddening as it gets.

 

[RockChalkRally]

What a horrible offensive possession.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Grimes cleaning up the mess. Well done young man.

 

[RockChalkRally]

When it comes to handling the basketball, this game is not a beauty contest between either team.

 

[RockChalkRally]

Considering how poorly KU played in the 1st half, trailing by only 4 is better than what it could be.

 

[SpartanJD]

Cyclones have been controlling the entire game so far

 

[Big_C_KU]

This just isn't a Final 4 caliber KU team. They can play great defense at times but they don't have the bball IQ or the crazy shooting to make up for it. Eventually their mediocre play was going to catch up to them when they play good teams each night in conference play. The conference in wide open.

 

[RockChalkRally]

We're gonna turn the ball over close to 30 times before this game is over.

There's a reason they're #10 and #13 in Kenpom and NET. They have some improving to do. However, it's a little premature to say the conference is wide open. That streak is also there for a reason.

 

[schoonerwest]

This is ugly.

Kansas should give up their basketball program.

 

[Big_C_KU]

If you can't shoot in this day and age in basketball you might as well not even try. Crazy Self put together a roster that has only 1 guy who is a halfway decent 3pt shooter.

 

[RockChalkRally]

We are on the verge of getting blown out by 20+ and deservedly so.
