Incidental in Allen.

Forearm shivers legal by Kansas? Ok

Probably on purpose, but Cryer did pull his arm down.

Teague is looking really good. There was such a long stretch he played without a lot of confidence. He had 2 really great moves in the past few minutes.

KU is gonna hit a half court shot right before halftime aren't they?

Agree on Teague comment. Win or lose tonight, this is a huge development necessary for a championship run.

These refs suck.

I know we aren't doing ourselves any favors, but if we honestly have 8 fouls, there's no way Kansas only has 3.

Bald refs should grow a hair and call it fairly.

8 BU fouls 3 for KU so far Allen Magic

That rebounding was great--but no bucket.

It would be nice if the announcers would spend more time calling the game instead of praising Kansas for everything from their 1952 uniforms to the Allen Fieldhouse being the best venue in all of college basketball.

This is so true, and I rarely complain about officials-it just seems that happens every time we play there
DanaDane

You guys are gonna spend an entire night in anguish with the refs to no avail. There is no team that has come into Allen Fieldhouse and gotten "even" officiating since the building opened. Not even Kentucky or Duke. It doesn't happen. And it's not gonna happen tonight.

Easiest cop out if we lose. It's a ******* mentality that's prevalent on this board.

If Teague is gonna foul you gotta make sure he doesn't get that ball up

I'm not poor I had power the whole time. Nice try though.

That was a foul on Mitchell

Played pretty poorly but down 3 on the road in the Phog.

Not horrible

Welp in person it's not looking good. Yes we're only down 3. But McCormick is doing anything he wants. And they can dribble drive whenever they want. Hopefully I'm wrong. But I see L #1 coming. This team is still a giant shell of what it is.

That was a pathetic way to end the last about 2 min of the half. They were so afraid twice that they parted the sea so to speak to let KU right at the bucket, then an almost air ball by Teague from the free throw line and a two missed layups by Mitchell (one blocked the other he hit the under part of the rim...).
