Game is about to Tip Off.... Rock Chalk Time... Not the hype as it should of been with TN players going all NBA with their choices...

Haters are always welcome....

I am happy to shake the #1 ranking, and happy to get the loss out of the way prior to conference play.

Would like to be ranked outside the top 10, but that wont happen.

This will come off as piling on, but KU's not getting a pass on this one. Tennessee dressed 9 damn players, 3 of them walk-ons. There's no reason they should win this game, none. I can see KU coming out sluggish in the first half to an inspired team. But come halftime the excuses go out the door. This is a bad sign for KU.

No their starting 6 could compete with anybody and the emotion of the week coupled with playing at home. Like Self said. KU would have been better off playing them at full force.

Well played. That made me laugh.

Whatever, maybe there will be a players only meeting or something season changing in January.

Cornell was a bad game...but I'm not really sure they played that badly in this one. Just seemed like a normal tough road game against a pretty good team today.

Usually they pull these out at the end, though.

Oh noes we are doomed.

Yes, we're thinking about cancelling the entire sports program and sticking to debate.

This was the question I kept asking my wife during the game..."Why the **** is this kid so special he hasn't done shit."

Really hope Self gets these kids back on the ball mentally.

I'll agree with this. I'm very unhappy with this game. They've had several close games that should have woke them up. Memphis should have gotten their heads out.

Forgive me for not being too worried, but KU will be fine.

I thought we played like absolute dogshit.

Horrible offense, and just kept jacking threes. We hardly attacked the basket or went down low at all.

Tyshon Taylor absolutely killed us on both sides of the floor as well. Terrible.

Pretty sure they are playing KState on the road either this week or next week. And that's if they don't lose sooner.

I agree with this. It's a bad sign, but it's not the end of the season.

2 games in a row where we play like shit is BAD.

So, drop to about 8 is the standard for Big 12 teams right?

Sometimes I think I'm the only one noticing Taylor's pathetic performances.
