Making Braun look like an All-Conference player tonight. That being said, if he's their best player tonight, that bodes well for us.

Mayer needed to take that to the rim and draw the foul

OK, maybe 2 of them could have been real fouls.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier

I feel like a win here will eliminate Kansas from the race for the title..because we aint losing 4 league games.

Yeah, if we can get to 8-0, it's all downhill from there. Would be great to hand them loss #3 this early on.

That was ugly, you gotta know the clock

Ignorant. How can you dribble the shot clock out and not get off a shot
Johnny Bear

What happened there? Did we just totally lose track of the clock?

No good

Bad last few seconds there to end the half but what an overall half for the Bears!

Man that was fun to watch!

Most of the fouls on us have been ok. It's a great idea to take your sock off for greater traction, dontcha think?

I've never seen a charge called against someone when the defender was airborne and moving horizontally

Were up 13 and KU shot 56% from 3. Wow!

Announcer wants Kansas to play with more pace. They have been playing half out of control most of the time

Take away Braun and we're basically running them out of the gym by 20+ at this point.
