That doesn't get called in the ku game.

Syracuse wins.

And more importantly, Duke loses. As it should be.

Like Self said, we weren't gonna run the table. He said before conference play and again today that he thinks 14-4 wins the league. Ellis said they didn't compete; didn't play their hardest. Self was in the locker room for an extended amount of time after the game. These are the types of games that I can't wait for them to get back on the court again, I'm glad we only have to wait until Tuesday.

Arizona goes down at Cal.

KU's loss to an ascending top 25 team > Arizona's loss to an unranked, weak Pac-12 team. Zona and UCLA are the only two teams in that conference with less than 4 losses in conference play.

@SethDavisHoops: Wow RT @tsnmike: Sean Miller said on his radio show Brandon Ashley might be lost for the year. Thinks foot is broken, depends on severity.

@kevbo9: If Brandon Ashley is out for the year, Zona can kiss their final four and championship dreams goodbye

Arizona's road win at SDSU > KU's loss at home to them.

KU ratings on KenPom: 4/38 for AdjO & AdjD

Michigan last yr had ratings of 1/48.

Elite O & suspect D can still do tourney damage. Ellis and Tharpe gotta improve on D.

Speaking of Michigan, they go down to IU today. Like the billionth top 25 team to go down.

Also, Zona's Brandon Ashley out for the year. They don't have strong depth. Sucks for them, title chances likely down the tubes.

@BlairKerkhoff: Oklahoma State dismisses freshman G Stevie Clark after his 2nd arrest this year.

Also, KU only drops to 8 in the AP thanks to tough conference road loss.

wow, tough break for OSU... they have absolutely NO depth on that team.

OSU was only playing 7 guys in their rotation as it was. Now down to 6, I guess.

Self was on the Seth Davis Show earlier. I didn't get to listen but they'll have a link to the interview up later. Here's this though...

@BentonASmith: From @SethDavisHoops: Self on coaching in NBA: "I believe I've got one of the better coaching jobs in America right here in Lawrence, KS."

Still the NC favorites at 9/2. Zona behind us at 6/1. Michigan State and 'Cuse both at 8/1.

It's crazy to think the bettors like Kansas more than Syracuse. That's really surprising to me. I don't think we'd match up well with them at all, nor would most teams. I felt like Duke was only in that game due to insanely hot outside shooting. I wonder why Florida isn't also near the top of the odds.
