You'd have to put him up on a stool.

Taylor has good basketball IQ, dude. He just makes mistakes at times....big ones, unfortunately.

why do we have the reckless dumbasses on the court right now when all we need to win is not turn the ball over?

coming down to fros..

I'd get somebody smaller than me to do it. It just wouldn't be fair for me to punch a guy a foot smaller.

damnit Taylor!!!!!!!!!! :cuss:

omg.......

and the reckless dumbasses costs us the lead


unfugginbelievable

See...Reed can make horrible turnovers, too.

Call a mother****ing foul you worthless sack of goddamned mother****ing ****

this is unreal

No no. I can get down on a knee.

heh...they owed us that one! :)

he punched him in the head

t 'em up!!! :)

reed can't play defense and turns the ball over alot ..... on the court
Taylor is a dumbass,turnover machine ...... on the court

that's it, I now want to punch Gotlieeb in the face, shut the fuck up

Plus 10

good call

Looks like he hit him in the head to me.

Make your free throws, Collins. Don't make this another Syracuse game.

clutch.

I missed it the first 5 times I saw it. I wasn't watching the first guy - only the second guy that tried to block the shot.

Collins is money.

Gotlieeb just called us kstate I am now watching this in slience

It's a good thing I tune these ****ers out.

He may have to do the same thing again. Let's hold our money comments until then.

Sadler looks like a guy who's 10 minutes late to an AA meeting

Yep, good steal...let's make them both again please, Sherron.

beautiful

that wasn't much of a foul on collins there though

LOLOLOL!!!! he missed the layup

ROOOOCK CHAAAAALK.....

Money. Phew.

Reed ..... take the layup!!!

I laughed out loud when missed that layup.

Na na hey hey good bye

Hysterically.

game

KU reacted well in a tough environment on the road tonight. Especially after that Cookiee guy acted like a tough guy.

Even though those were some terrible turnovers to get them back into it in the last few minutes there...

Ugly game, but a win is a win. I did enjoy the booing at the end as well.

No, no, he did the right thing there. Running the time out is smart.

final score??

LOL, yeah.

BTW, where did douche go?

68-62 I think.

thats a cover

Anybody got the KSU-MIzzou score? I can't get the game on TV.

Yeah they made their FT's and fed the ball inside and controlled the glass the 2nd half, all key to winning on the road.

It bodes well for the future, particularly that Baylor game next week. Gotta get Aldrich going earlier.

Missouri is down 15. Maybe somebody should let the douche know.

Ha ha Pete, we won. GFY

Go Wildcats (God that hurts)

Pete is a n00b at this rooting against KU thing. For instance, last year he would have been disappointed 37 times while celebrating 3 times.

uggh what an ugly game by our boys in the first half, luckily we were playing nebraska or we would have lost that one.

It's a good testament to the gall of our young guys, fighting through the adversity of being down 13 in the other teams house.

ugly game, but we came through

I found a pic of Cookie Miller at the Hawks game the other night.

Yeah, they are going to need that here pretty shortly.

Yes, they weren't affected much by the crowd agaisnt Iowa State, but tonight was certainly different. It better not happen agaisnt Baylor.

I don't have HD, did Cookie play tonight? Looked like NE was playing with 4 on my tv.

ROFL

Seriously though that game was scary. On to the next.

Nebraska really does that to everyone... I expected that sort of game on the Jayhawks' offensive end, it was just the 34 points given up in the first half that surprised me. Having gone to the OSU game in Lincoln on Saturday, and seeing them on a few other occasions, I knew they would be a pain the ass.

It was probably a good learning experience for Aldrich, who probably hasn't seen that sort of defense this year, but at least he got a few looks in the second half. If Nebraska had hit their 3s, the Jayhawks would have been screwed, but that's Husker basketball.

On a side note, it's funny reading through this thread, like the Jayhawks were getting screwed by the refs... having come from the game where the Husker fans were bitching about everything. If anything, I thought it was a little slanted towards the Jayhawks, but not by much.

Not the best seats in the house, but I liked the view...

At the end they favored the Jayhawks, IMO, but most of the Nebraska fans (and maybe you) didn't see the replay we did of the Collins layup attempt with 30 seconds left. Looked like a block at first glance (and it was a clean block), but Collins was hit on the head as he was going up, and they called that.

And yeah, 34 points is actually a relatively low total considering the 13 turnovers KU had in the first half.

Yeah, they were all over that one, but the replay in the arena was from the floor under the basket, which didn't show anything one way or the other. The guy I got the ticket from is pretty objective, so I tended to agree with him when he would call a 'Jayhawk call'... a blocking foul that should have been a charge in the first half, and one or two questionable calls under the basket.

It's hilarious, because Saturday the Cowboys apparently brought their refs, and tonight the Jayhawks brought their own.... Nebraska can't get a break. ;)

What was with the delay after the pile up towards mid-court? Were they checking to see if someone threw a punch? Someone said they saw a Jayhawk come off the bench, and everyone was screaming for a technical foul. :shrug:


Oh, and another point I wanted to make before.... I think it was halfway through the second half when the Jayhawks had 19 turnovers, and maybe not even that; and when I looked at a minute to go they had 20 (which I think was an Aldrich turnover on the baseline). Huge.

True, but giving up 34 to Nebraska is like giving up 50 to a real offense. They were definitely fortunate that it wasn't worse going into halftime.

Yeah, I figured they wouldn't have seen that. What did he think of the Cookie Miller blocking foul late in the game? I thought it was clearly a foul, but the Nebraska fans really didn't like it.


They were looking for a punch. And KU wanted a technical foul on Miller for being an idiot and starting all that.

Yes, they played great coming down the stretch in a tough environment. It bodes well.

True...Nebraska really lacked any sort of an offense outside of jacking up 3's.

:spock: Nebraska has a basketball program?

If it's the one I'm thinking of, we both thought it was a foul, and it looked like it was on the replay. The more obnoxious fans around us really didn't like some of the blocking fouls, even though most of them were obvious.

That's what I didn't get... the Jayhawks ended up on the ball, and if anything it looked like it was the Huskers' aggression that caused the problem, yet fans throughout the entire arena were going apeshit for a technical, like I was the only one who missed it.

They didn't have much inside presence even with Maric last year, and now they have even less. I figured it would be Aldrich's game on both ends of the court, but he was out of position on defense so much in the first half, and probably isn't used to having so many ankle-biters flying around when they're on offense.

They have a defense that would make Pelini proud. I actually had a discussion on the idea of handing out black shirts to the basketball players.

I felt it was an obvious blocking foul. Miller wasn't straight up at all when he did it, was still shuffling his feet a bit, and reached his arms up into Taylor's chest.

Little was visibly pissed, and got up ready to charge at the little guy for being all over him like that. That really didn't deserve a technical, though.


Yeah, they were all over him throughout the game. He came through when it counted, though, which is all I ask. That's what the great players do.

Yeah, the replay showed his feet were still moving. After the replay, a Husker fan behind us something along the lines of "damn, it's one thing to be passionate, but he clearly wasn't set".

I wasn't sure what to expect from Aldrich on offense, because my friend said they would have at least two guys on him all night and that he wouldn't have any time to put the ball down or move around under the basket. His defense in the first half surprised me, but he seemed to adjust and not wander nearly as much in the second half.

They played through it better than expected. Nebraska really needed the win, so I didn't have a good feeling about it... but they have to play a near perfect game against most teams because of their inept offense.

In the 'last post' column of the Mizzou/KSU gamethread, I've seen KC_Connection, frazod, and Saul.... I'm a little afraid to start reading. Maybe I'll just stay here. :)

Those two actually weren't a part of it. Staying here is probably better than wading through shit, I agree.

about the miller blocking foul, was it just me or did it look like he threw his hands forward when about to make contact?

Yeah, it wasn't just you, because that's exactly what Miller did.

That may be a lot tougher. Baylor may not play defense like Nebraska, but they can score (a lot).

What chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?

Probably the hardest call for a ref to make is a charge or block. On a few of those, the Jayhawk player was moving to the side to avoid the charge and the Nebraska player would try to move his direction. Most of those were correct. I know I have seen many a game where the refs (incorrectly) give the charge in that scenario.

I don't know what they were bitching about. Cookie Miller was being a punk there. The ESPN guys (Gottleib, I think) even said as much. No punches were thrown but if there were to be any kind of technical foul call, it would have been on the midget.
