Oklahoma St. is the 2nd best team in the B12 this year. Then it's some combination of KSU, Baylor, ISU, and OU.

To me, it's still a matter of caring/giving a full effort. That's on the players themselves. He can only challenge them so many times. Even Withey, the rock of this team, was sleepwalking out there today. There wasn't any real urgency until there was like 10 minutes left in the game and by that time it was too late.

That is true. They really haven't given a full effort in a long time.

Lol Oklahoma St. only beat Iowa State at home because they had a lot of help from the refs. Not to mention a lucky ass bank three at the half, similar to the only reason Kansas escaped Iowa State IN KANSAS! (Bank at the end of regulation)

I can only imagine how great the Clones would be if Steele Jantz was on their basketball team.

We're just not that good right now. Fact is, we've looked bad all conference so far except the Baylor home game. We looked like crap the rest of the games. Teams know they can just pressure the hell out of the PG, pack it in on Withey, and make us score off the drive. Which is only resulting in bad shots and worse: turnovers.

Saturday is a must-win now. Not for standings, but for sanity. If they get drubbed in Norman, they're not winning the conference. KU still has roadies at Baylor, at ISU, at Okie LIght.

You'll still be in 2nd, since we hold the tiebreaker over you. But it was a nice effort nonetheless on your part.
