That game was exhausting. I'm ecstatic that we won, but the officials cheapened a lot of the experience of the game.

Look ma, a douchebag!!

What the hell, come piss in our cheerios

That would be ****ing insanity. I have both KU and MU losing in the Sweet Sixteen... so who knows.

Today was an incredible couple of games for KU/MU fans. I was a HUGE fan of Marquette today...

Good luck vs. Memphis, if you all beat them... you can think about a F4 or the 'ship...

Okay, so which one of us went trolling in the KU thread?

I missed yesterday's game, but, if they play anything like they did in their first round game, I think we'd stand a good chance.

Tip o' the cap to Kim English, kid reminds me more of Rickie Paulding every game. He'll be leading our tourney runs as a JR and Sr.

How Lyons put together the linescore he did is beyond me. He played like ass. He was horrid in every facet of the game. He made one nice little reverse layup (after being fouled roughly 213 times on the way to the hoop) and otherwise played ole' defense and made me curse his family. Same story with Lawrence, another awful game with a respectable line score. Carroll, on the other hand, had a mediocre line but a great game. Exhibit A when explaining to folks that the box-score doesn't tell the entire story.

Finally, to the folks that were trying to give the refs a pass by saying Mizzou's defense was what was really hurting them, just exactly how did you expect them to man up? Every single time they bothered playing defense, they where whistled. There's no way for them to play pressure defense if all that's going to do is get Marquette to the line. They're not a help defense team that can deal with that by having guys come in late to clean up.

From a purely technical standpoint, it was absolutely impossible for them to play defense with their system and how that game was called. Granted, dipshit things like failing to box out and really remarkably stupid fouls like the one Lyons pulled on the breakaway didn't do them any favors, but that happens; they're still college kids. Ultimately they were up shits creek with the system they run once the refs got whistle-happy. I can't hold that against 'em.

Huge credit to these guys for keeping their heads up and plugging along when things were looking rough.

P.S. **** you Buzz Williams. Die of ass cancer.

Wonder of wonders, another butt-lucky Kansas team that managed to face up a mid-major in the sweet 16.

Maybe someday y'all will actually have to beat someone in the tournament, I kinda doubt it.

ROFL

And maybe your players will have to shoot their own free throws.

I do hope that we don't make a habit out of subbing in 68% free throw shooting freshmen for 76% shooting juniors.

Kansas shot 50% against NDS and only had 5 turnovers. If that happened vs. Mizzou, Kansas would win by 40. That's no smack.. Mizzou needs extra possessions, and they wouldn't survive a game only getting 5 turnovers.

Now, if Kansas played like they did today... shooting 40% and 17 TOs... that's up Mizzou's alley, even though Aldrich's triple-double wouldn't have helped the Tigers.

we replaced a 76% shooter with a 68% shooter:spock: Strategughhhhreeeyyy

Why are you so butt sore about us winning? It's not like we were playing you guys?
