A nice 10-0 run would clinch it. Butler time.

Too much dribbling and one on one stuff right now. Hopefully Drew gets it correct during this time out.
Looks a lot like the first half in Lubbock.

Way too much 1 on 1 bs on offense. Need to pass and move.

Man Teague can't buy a 3 tonight. 0 for 4 now. Crap.

This is pathetic 4 min... defense is lazy and some of the sloppiest ball handling an horrible passes until that Vital dunk. Good defensive following it and then a 3 by Butler, so gotta hope they have their head out of of their ass now.
You have enemies? Good. That means you’ve stood up for something, sometime in your life.

A 9-0 run will work.

I do love the crowd energy tonight from what I can hear though. After that pathetic 4 min run with Drew's timeout, they look different. So you know they weren't really in it for a few min there and had to get brought back "in"

Flipping the switch.

That lob to Vital go us juiced.

That's why we're so friggin' dangerous. Our guys are talented to pull of a 9 or 10 point run at the drop of a hat!

Good no call on Jon. Love our post play tonight.

Impressive that KU had a run and it was like we switched a gear and turned it up a notch for a run of our own!

It looks great tonight and it is getting better as the season goes on.

Man I hope everyone sits back and enjoys this season. This season has allowed us to feel like historical Duke, Kentucky, Kansas, etc.....teams, where if one of your shooters has an off night, the others just fill in for him. That doesn't happen for very many teams in CBB.

Love the way they keep showing UNC and Duke highlights, but no Baylor, on ESPN's Blockbuster commercials. Is either team even ranked?

Mitchell has been pretty sloppy with the ball handling tonight

I have seen enough of Braun.
DanaDane
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Braun is just a 37% shooter from 3 on the year. He's having the game of his life.

They have a National fan base

Mitchell is dribbling the air out of the ball again. Sheesh.

Braun is another love child of Keaton Paige. How much did that guy get around?

Crap like that drives me crazy. I understand the economics of it though: You can buy a Duke shirt in Waco, but can't get a Baylor shirt in Druham.
DanaDane

Someone spread out and stop Garret's baseline drives. Please.
KajunKarlsdad

And here we go again, can't put them away.

Giving KU life. Need to score and put this game away
Oldbear83
How long do you want to ignore this user?
I am so sick of hearing the announcers hope Kansas gets back into this. Every time KU gets inside 10 they cheer up.
That which does not kill me, will try again and get nastier
