Wow isu dodged one tonight

[KC_Connection]

ISU back in the conference race unfortunately now, but they deserved it. Credit to them.

They were probably talking about the odds-on favorite.

Not easy to win on the road. KU isn't exactly some kind of dominating force this year.

Truth. Texas ran through Kansas like a freight train through a pile duck feathers. Kansas has a 50/50 shot at Baylor.

Maybe slightly better than that, but I wouldn't go too much further. KU at its best can beat Baylor anywhere, but we rarely see KU at its best over a full game.

KU has 5 road games left (Baylor, KSU, OSU, Tech, WVU). Going 3-2 over that stretch would be great. Going 2-3 probably wins them the conference anyway (assuming they can win all the games at home).

I don't know what I was thinking lol. Tard moment. I think we can lose three more but hope not. I'm hoping we start to really get it soon, playing better D, limit TOs.

[KC_Connection]

If you assume ISU wins all their home games and their road game at TCU, they're at 11 wins. They then have games at WVU, KSU, and Baylor. They could conceivably get to 14 still, but more likely 12 or 13. Puts a bit more pressure on KU.

OSU meanwhile will be struggling to maintain a .500 record in conference with that team of theirs now.

Smart showcasing his flopping "skills" again.

Either team deserved to win. Man, both teams had chances to put it away and just refused to.

On Smart flopping, yeah, if you can sell it when you're beat, fine. But he far to often does it when he's got position on a guy that the disparity on the athleticism is too great for the other kid to overcome. As a result he takes a gamble on a flop and the official calling it rather than the much higher probability of finishing the play positively. Especially of offense. He'll sell out on a flop when if he just would have went to the basket he would have scored or gotten fouled or both. He does it on the defensive end too. Against guys that have very little shot of scoring on him. It's mind boggling.

It's really odd to see such hate for a player Bill Self loves. Talk about a serious quandary for the fans here.

Yeap, because all KU fans are supposed to agree with all opinions Bill Self happens to hold.
