ChiefsPlanet - KU ***Official '22/'23 Defending Natl' Champion KU Men’s Basketball Repository Thread***

The “dude” trying to explain why Houston over KU, mention Sasser not available for Houston, but they still played tough. I’ve heard nobody mention McCullar not playing for KU, or they were underestimating his value? Our D and O doesn’t function very well when he’s not on the floor. Admittingly, they should have showed more heart in that game last night.

Maybe this will make the whole team play with a chip on their shoulder.

Hope so, we need a fire set in our soul for that 4321 KU region.

As I said, the worst bracket we've ever gotten in one of these. Just an absolute screwjob.

Somebody asked me before the bracket came out who I would pick other than Kansas to win the Natty, and I said UCLA. And here they are as our #2.

Not that worried about UCLA. I'm worried about teams than can defend. UCLA is that team.

IOWA WILL DESTROY KU. WE CAN NOT HANDLE THEIR OFFENSE, BOYS.

Oh wait, sorry, was stuck in 2021-2022 mode for a bit.

Howard lost to 46 to Yale.

They are awful.

They do not deserve to be in a tournament that will be crowing a national champion.

Kinda dumb for the committee to admit they won’t penalize you if you lose with important players out. Do they want top teams resting starters in these conference tourneys?

I mean, they’ve basically established that BWillie was right all along about benching all of our guys all week. Nobody wants that but I don’t see any incentive to playing them now in that final week.

Maybe Howard had an injury that night. You can’t knock them for that.

It probably only makes sense to play the starters in that tourney if you’re on the fence between a 1 and 2 or something like that.

If you know you’re going to be a 1 seed, then bench everyone and rest up.

I wanted too. The big 12 was a grind. The B12 conference tourney is a waste. Especially if you win the regular season.
