Other Sports *****2023 Border War Hoops and HATE Thread***** - Page 8

Chiefspants · 12-06-2023, 10:47 PM

The 2023 Border War installment of our 5 game not a rivalry anymore series swings back to Allen Fieldhouse where already students are camping at numbers that dwarfed our game against UCONN.

KU is still finding itself this year, as usual with early Bill Self teams. Hunter Dickinson fulfills every checkmark of a classically hated Jayhawk. Arrogant, a great flop, questionable athleticism yet can be counted on to pull a double double every night. We would have been runaway title favorites in 2007, but unfortunately, it’s 2023 and today’s game needs outside shooters to go all the way, and we’ve yet to have someone consistently step up to take on that role (this would be a great game for a Furphy coming out party).

Coming to Lawrence for their renewed John Brown invitational is the Mizzou Tigers. I actually don’t know a lot about the Tigers this year. Browsing ESPN it looks like y’all lost to Assberg State but had a helluva comeback agains Minnesota and a dub against Pitt? What’s up with your team this year, Tigers fans? A lot of turnover/young players? Fill us in if you have outside shooters and athletes to swarm Dickinson in the paint and threaten KU’s 3 game winning streak.

Come in, make yourselves at home, and shit talk like it’s 2012 again.

But I agree that certain MUs would be all over this if MU somehow were to beat KU. Even Zach, the dipshit who thinks hoops are lame but is a huge soccer fan.

I said most interesting up until conference play begins bud, like from now until January

lol soccer fans don't get to judge other sports

Gotta give the Tiggers credit for not folding! As much as we haven't put this game away, they have held tough.

Our guys play hard.

They are just very limited talent wise unfortunately.

DJay23 · 12-09-2023, 06:13 PM

KJ has shown some great handles tonight.

Dajuan has had a pretty shitty game today.

If they play hard that at least shows they're not coached like shit. Better than what you've seen recently

chiefsfan987 · 12-09-2023, 06:20 PM

Aside from the closing stretch of the first half Kansas hasn't looked very good today.

Reerun_KC · 12-09-2023, 06:22 PM

Sleep walking again.

Other than the end of the first half. Kansas has really just dicked off all game.

Reerun_KC · 12-09-2023, 06:22 PM

They only play when they feel like it. It’s frustrating

They've got those unflappable 8th year seniors in the backcourt.

I agree with this! It's like we are sleep walking since that close of thr half. We went 5 mts and no FG'S.

Yep. I have no expectations for a deep tournament run, but at least they're fun to watch. I went 3+ years without watching a complete game.

**Buehler445** · 12-09-2023, 06:25 PM

Damn. Fouling us early. That's a good strategy as shitty as we are from the FT line.

Yeah sounds like watching KU football through the '10s

Much better when you can at least tune in and have hope
