That's expected. There's no way kids are gonna stay focused after getting out to that lead.

that one guy on K State can actually shoot. All the others? Not so much.

That makes 3 times so far this season that an opponent Has thrown up a desperation shot from midcourt or longer and hit it.

Butler has turned over the ball at the half 4-5 times in the last few weeks. 3 or 4 of those led to opponent points.

We've had more half court buzzer beaters hit against us than any other team in the country (not verified but..) at I believe 4. That is 12 points counting against our defense in the metrics and I believe we are still #1 overall in the comps. Crazy.

I thought it was 4 now... but yes we probably lead the country in last second half court shots hit against us

I don't know anything about KSU this year. What's the deal? I mean, it's a solid program with a good coach. While we are probably the best team in the nation, they are really bad. How did they get this bad?

They are extremely young. Just a few bad recruiting years caught up with them. I'd expect to see them competing again in a few years

They are taking their lumps this season with mostly freshmen trying build for the future but wow, this is fugly.

I wouldn't mind them getting Turner and Loveday some experience here.

Man if we can sit back and develop Loveday over the next 2 years, he could be a huge asset as a junior and senior as a 7 foot wing coming off the bench. Guy has a sweet stroke.

Sorry, K-State.

Not going to set the margin of victory record in BigXII play (still 52 pt win over Aggy).

On to the next one. Great win, love to see the guys and staff have fun.
DanaDane

Just sit back, relax and enjoy what you're watching this year (and last). It is simply amazing.

So we need a 9 point win Saturday for my prediction to come to fruition. Seems possible

I underestimated our margin of victory tonight. Your nine points on Saturday is looking damn good.
