Walter just passed up a good shot for a bad one. Have some confidence, man.

Our guards defensive footwork is terrible. How it hasn't been corrected by now is wild

We're really lucky a) that McCullar isn't playing and b) this isn't a vintage Kansas team. This one would likely already be over if either were true.
Stefano DiMera

We'd be tied if he missed the bus.

What is the deal with Josh O????

Missi will probably end up being on of my favorite BU bigs kid can ball out

That's a horrible foul call on Little. That was a loose ball. He has as much right to the ball as anyone.

Like the hustle and someone finally on the ground on a 50-50 ball.

2 of our 6 fouls are ones we got called for going for lose balls

Miro laid out and got all of the ball...foul on him. Typical Phog.

Dennis and Nunn with goose eggs. Can't have that if we're gonna have a shot tonight

Guess they're just not gonna allow us to get on the floor for loose balls today...!!

Right, but it is the "Phog".

How many pump fakes can we make? Someone needs to man up and take a shot

good job by Drew out of the timeout to extend the O to half court to create more space for the Missi dunk

I love all the doom and gloomers. Basketball is a game of runs, my friends.

Seriously..I never understand gloom and doom.when there's 30+ minutes left. It's like if it starts bad it has to stay bad?

Video don't matter

Dennis, Nunn, Walter need to be attacking the rim at will. Without McCullar KUs guards are pretty slow aside from Harris who RayJ can post up
Bear in AL
How long do you want to ignore this user?
And we thought the refs at the Iowa State game were bad. One-sided calls in KU's favor.
Johnny Bear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
BS foul call!!!!
Mitch Henessey
How long do you want to ignore this user?
RayJ has not been playing well thus far.
Johnny Bear

Blocking foul. BS call.
