Good win. My manager is going to be .... difficult. Glad I don't have to go into the office this week.

Embiid is incredible, but he's going to catch double teams every single game with the exception of Baylor. Teams are going to try and frustrate him as much as possible, hoping he'll do something stupid.

Iowa is damn good. I love Fran. They're gonna do some damage in March, he's done a great job with that program.

4-25 3pts. You all sure looked well rounded last night.

Hopefully this will put an end to your little talk about being the new pedigree of B12 hoops

Outstanding game last night.

I might be just against KU. I believe they stated in in 08. It was when I was still in Sidney. I had to drive from prairie du chien WI when they played KU in Ames. They had a decent game going, the Rush and company got a run going and the boos came. Didn't help, they put it on them pretty good and they started booing every whistle because ... I don't know why. I figured they did it to everybody.

I'm not worried about Embiid with the double team. He's patient and takes what's available. I'm more worried about Traylor and Ellis with the double team. I mean Embiid is going to get them too because dudes don't want to get embarrassed, but Traylor and Ellis are the ones I'm worried about.

He is like a contortionist under the basket What great moves he has.

HolyHandgernade · 01-14-2014, 08:23 AM

For all the past flak he has taken, its time to start acknowledging one of the top point guards, if not the best point guard, in the B12 since conference play began. Tharpe has been playing at an incredible level. If he maintains this level of play through the rest of the season, we are a National Title contender.

Yeah, he deserves more credit than I give him. I was clamoring for Mason to start over him. He's picked it up and is really playing well. Seriously though, that ****ing behind the back pass has to go. Shit gives me a heart attack every time.

I'll eat the shit out of that crow. Hopefully I have to all year. Tharpe was BAMF the last couple games.

Chiefs Pantalones · 01-14-2014, 10:34 AM

Tharpe has definitely stepped up. And Embiid...wow.

CaliforniaChief · 01-14-2014, 10:40 AM

Ok, so I'm behind the times. What's the booing reference about? Just curious.

ISU fans boo.......a lot. Even when the sheer amount of calls go in their favor. It's as if they don't feel that their team ever fouls. Or that the other team makes a good play. They would probably still boo if KU was called for 75 fouls and ISU 0.

how true is that! I have Cyclone fans who are Facebook friends and they are constantly posting about the officiating and how bad it is...

Not buying it.... IF it wasn't for the refs we would of blown them out of that dump...

The refs kept this game close and interesting for the Boooo Birds....

In AFH we house them by 20.... Mark it down, write it down, for I said it, it is so....

I could see KU blowing them out in AFH. However, ISU is a good team. I doubt it will be a blowout.
