Kansas has been living right this season. They're squeaking by everyone.
Three in a row and four in the last five games.FWBear91 said:
Dang it. Baylor will need a lot of help to win the B12 this year. 2 narrow escapes in a row for KU.
That's easy to second-guess after the fact, and it might have been a better strategy. But Tech played great defense on that possession. Agbaji just hit a really tough shot. Nine times out of 10, that's a miss and a Tech win. But good offense beats good defense sometimes in basketball.CHP Bear said:
Tech up by 3 with approx. 7 second left. KU player is open and drains a three to tie game. So now OT. Why didn't Tech (around 10 second mark) foul and put KU on the line for 2. Even if KU drains the 2 FTs, that would have given them the ball with 10 second to go and 1 point lead? What am I missing?
Obanor was a really good outside shooter at Oral Roberts. It just hasn't clicked for him offensively at Tech yet.DanaDane said:
It's because Warren fouled out. Nothing wrong with Tech's offensive strategy. They just have a team with skills more leaning to the defensive side. Not many pure shooters on that team outside of Shannon (who went 1-11; combined with McCullar, they were 2-22) and Williams is the only big they have with above average offensive skills.
Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Good teams win the close ones, but there is some luck involved also. Hopefully they are using up all of their luck before our game with them.bear2be2 said:Three in a row and four in the last five games.FWBear91 said:

Wow. Obachi nailed it. Ooops. Agbaji. I never get it right.
There was a blocking call too that wasn't even close and it went KU's way. It seemed like from then on, they wouldn't call a foul on KU.TXBEAR_bf said:
Tech got hosed on calls tonight, there were 4 in the final couple of minutes and OT that were just awful no calls. On one of the rebound attempts Tech player got pushed down right in front of ref and he swallowed the whistle. I was pulling for Kansas to win, but changed to routing for Tech after the typical BS that happens every freaking game at Lawrence. Tech is incredibly well coached, and they should have won that game, but the Phog…aka 8-5.
