Wow that was great. I watched from the last minute of regulation and it brought back all the memories... Thanks!!

If you think Pro style is gimmick, then yes.

I was driving from Wisconsin back to Sidney during the infamous boo game and the announcers are just as bad. It's culture up there. I couldn't goddamn wait to get back to a KU broadcast.

It's funny how Iowa State fans actually consider those victories for them last year. I realize you guys are new to caring about basketball but guess what some times the calls don't go your way. Elijah Johnson beat your team, not the refs. Truth hurts.

KU might lose this game tonight, and they might win. But either way the Iowa State fanbase will be a bunch of booing overly emotional clowns and Melvin will be the guy you didn't ban from the games like you should have.

You forgot racist.

It's true, you did. You forgot racist.

This year they're a lot better. In prior years, just yacking up 3s and not even looking at shit else is a gimmick.

I'll agree with you for the most part, Hoiberg is good for ISU and ISU looks pretty legit so far, but ISU is a long way from being an elite program.

All in all though, the Big 12 is better if the teams are good. It may leave some worthy teams out of the dance that are towards the middle of the pack in te conference but the top teams have a better chance to do something if they've been in dogfights all year.

My favorite part of the Iowa State fan narrative is how KU isn't "classy".

Really, Iowa State? Really? I like how you throw garbage at players and then turn around and say they aren't classy because of a dunk. Eat shit and die, state of Iowa. Nobody likes you.

And dude comes out of the stands and tries to punch Bill Self. IIRC, Traylor was right there. Not only is going after a coach classless, but with Traylor around, that's just dumb.

Then tweeting out that EJ is a racial slur and saying he's going to shoot up the bus.

I know there are bad seeds in every fanbase, but come the **** on. Tweeting racial slurs and shooting up the bus? And trying to punch Self? WTF?

It's good coaching. If you can't match up with most teams that field a traditional 1-5 lineup let a bunch of guards and wings jack up 3s. It works. Some of the time.

Here's an interesting read on Hoiberg. I'd say he's one of the two best coachrd on the conference.

But nobody is a bigger coachard than Scott Drew.

Dear KU,

Please beat #8 ISU and #9 OSU this week.

Regards,

#10 (Somehow) SDSU

Haha.

I just did the same thing.

I'd forgotten all about that fantastic '**** you' dunk at the end. Loved it.

Amazing play by EJ down the stretch in that game. Too bad he went back to full reerun against Michigan. I had forgotten how much the commentators were one sided for ISU. Nevermind all the fouls that ISU got away with. STFU

I debated posting that article, but figured you guys wouldn't read it.

Here's a nice little video from last year-

Me too. Nice way to start my day. I actually started giggling like a school girl when he dunked.

****ing ISU clowns.

Best part:

I'll admit I had a hearty chuckle when they panned to Hoiberg's kid bawling it out in his mom's arms.

Man, I really want to put it on these Clone ****s tonight and drink from a river of tears.

Well it's that and the fact that their offense pretty much consists of taking three pointers as early into the possession as possible.

I'm sure those tears were delicious for you; considering those were all clearly ISU victories.

LMAO

Taking that many threes also makes you prone to upsets if you're off.

On a related note, KU winning tonight at ISU would be an upset.

Last year is when we were live/die by the three. This year we are well rounded and can still win games if the three isn't falling. But all five guys on the floor are still a threat to shoot it, so it keeps the offense open.

Yeah, I think it was that act that pushed a lot of the fans past their boiling point. So good.

Yep. Vegas has the Clones as two point favorites.

What's the word on Kane?

Yeah, I could hear the dog yelps all the way from Ames on that cold, winter eve.

So much anger. So much kicking.

ISU is 35th in the NCAA in 3PA/FGA with 40.5% of their shots coming from behind the arc. It's not where they were in previous years (18th at 41.6% and 8th at 43.8%), but it still could be described as living/dying by the three (which puts a little more luck into the equation than an offense reliant on 2PT FGs).

ISU also plays at the quickest tempo in the B12 and one of the quickest in the NCAA, which I rather like (and not only because it makes for better basketball viewing). When you're a good team like 2014 ISU is, it's beneficial to get as many possessions as possible.

Rumor is he's fine.

Always had to take the good with the bad with EJ. I still appreciate his accomplishments, though.

The natural inclination to root for the underdog (does that mean Fran will be on our side tonight?). In the aftermath of that, everyone pretty much ignored how the game was actually reffed to focus on that one call at the end of regulation.

I'm sorry did a person living in IOWA just laugh at us for having to still live in Kansas? Did I read that right?

He lives in Iowa.

every time I see Rusty post, I all see is this...

hey rusty what you think of tonights game

Is candy Kane ready to play

YOU sure?

Yup. This is a WTF comment from them.

This guy is taking an unofficial tonight. 6'9" and shooting 46% from three point. Type of mismatch Fred loves to have.

No1curr

Congrats on your community college recruit I guess.

We lost and we still get to hang this:

But congrats on that one time you made it to the elite eight. That's super.

****ing hilarious.

Yeah, that was my first thought, as well.

Seriously. I love that you posted a picture from the NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAME as some sort of smack talk.

"LOL U GUYZ ARE ONLY 1-1 IN THE LAST FIVE NATIONAL CHAMPIONSHIP GAMES!! LULZ!!!!!!"

Just for PB:

I forget what actually happened. Wasn't there some old fart ISU fan like this who went up to Self after the game, and Self just laughed it off?

FWIW, I went to ISU my freshman year in college. I then transferred to KU do to a change in majors. No ill feelings towards ISU. If I would stayed in my major, I would have probably finished at ISU. I had a great time...probably a little too much fun. That said, KU >>>>>> ISU.

3 Sweet 16s. Ever. I had no idea how bad their history was. Since Larry came in 1984 we have averaged 28 wins per year over that thirty year period. Iowa State has won 28 or more.....once. Ever.

You know you have no base for any smack talk when you bring up "living in Kansas" and you live in ****ing Iowa.

LMAO

That 2011-2012 season was pretty awesome really. We certainly didn't have our usual level of ridiculous talent (at least compared to the 2008 NC team, the Sherron/Cole/X/Morrises/Tyshawn 2010 team, or even this year with the likely top two picks in the 2014 draft). But Tyshawn and TRob basically willed that group to another B12 title (complete with the greatest sporting event I will likely ever see in person in the OT win over MU), with a subsequent run all the way to the final (where we admittedly and unsurprisingly ran into the buzzsaw that was Anthony Davis). I don't think they could have gotten any more out of that season than they did. We're seriously supposed to feel bad about that? LMAO

I watched some Louis CK a few weeks ago and this bit popped into my head the other day.... and it's pretty much what it feels like to be a Kansas basketball fan.

Posting pictures of someone crying at the NC game? Pffft, I'm a Kansas basketball fan, you can't even hurt my feelings.

And of course the part about traveling into the future applies, too... heh.

Replace "being white" with "Kansas basketball fan" and the alternative being an ISU fan. (nsfw, language)

Jacking up 3's is a Pro style offense? I need to watch some NBA.

I'm so proud of this.

ROFL

Boooooooooooooo /ISU fans

I just made this a bit confusing.

We can start the new thread with either making fun of the one ISU fan on the board or bitching about how we lost. It's a win/win situation.

Great win tonight.

Arrowhead....move it on to another thread buddy.

Mayor 1-7 vs Self. Does that make Bill the Governor of Ames?

No, it makes him President and Dictator For Life

Next.....revenge against OSU @AFH.
