Whew, survive and advance. UNC never should have never let Villanova back in the game, and Kansas should have separated from WKU in the first 10 minutes of the 2nd half when WKU had only hit like 2 FGs in the half.
Kansas should play loose Sunday, and hopefully McLemore can find his game. If Kansas wins, hopefully Michigan will, too, or Self comes up with some magical gameplan... because VCU is scary, and those 74 turnovers tonight didn't change my mind. |

If UNC can press the ball and double Withey then our offense turns to shit. |

If hairston gets hot he could take over the game.......I have no idea how they are going to stop whithey though. We have NO one..... |
@ESPNStatsInfo: Kansas is the 1st team to win an NCAA Tourney gm without making a single 3-pointer since Arizona vs Ole Miss in 2001 #fb
KUsports.com @KUsports 44m Self: KU made one shot outside of two feet, and that was from its 7-foot center. #kubball |
I'd rather play the traditional Power 6 school than a gimicky little squad of jerk and squirt scrappers.

Offensively... yeah, a team like VCU scares me. PG play is one thing, but throw in McLemore's turnovers, and they obviously need to get better at dealing with that kind of pressure. KU missed a lot of easy shots early, and I was pretty surprised they didn't put it away early in the 2nd half. |

Michigan should probably worry about dealing with VCU first.

Problem is neither UNC or Michigan are known to be not all that great defensively. So we will see.

I see a major upset tommorow in Wichita st in beating Gonzaga.

It's not a bad matchup at all. It basically comes down to Michigan being a jump shooting team with no inside presence at all that doesn't rebound or go to the line. They don't turn people over (good news for EJ and Tharpe) and they will have NO ONE to stop Withey. So as much as he may be a "non-factor" on defense, he would most definitely NOT be a "non-factor" on offense. This doesn't matter right now, though. Both teams still have to win the games in front of them. |
Well, that completely sucked. Talk about playing down to your competition. I don't think KU had any focus or energy in that entire game apart from maybe the few minutes it took them to build their 5-6 point lead. Complacency clearly remains a problem for this team. Fortunately, there shouldn't be any more room to be complacent in this tournament (at least you would hope). UNC is a dangerous team and should be perceived as a threat by us. With their quick pace, it should also be more entertaining than the exasperating shitshow we had to watch tonight.
We also saw the benefit of being a 1 seed tonight (as opposed to a #2). We were able to suck that badly and still win because we were playing a completely hapless opponent. If we were playing FGCU instead of WKU tonight, the outcome would have likely been completely different. Heck, if WKU even just made a couple more threes, they're right there. |
do we know tip time for Sunday yet?
EDIT nevermind found it. 4:15 |

31% of UNC's FG attempts are threes (235th in the NCAA). ISU shoots 37.2% from 3 (41st in NCAA). UNC shoots 37.5% from 3 (35th in NCAA). Basically, they shoot a pretty similar percentage from out there, but ISU's entire offense revolves around the three ball. UNC's doesn't. They create a lot of shots through their transition game. |
Withey said in the postgame presser that they took them lightly and WKU was/is better than they thought.

UNC is not good basketball team? Good analysis
|
Serious question here since I didn't watch any of the games last night (I was attending my daughters HS play)
How close was this game at the end? I saw the score ended up at 64-57 but was it even closer than that? |

McLemore needs to start getting hot though....he has the ability to take over a game and he's been waaaaaaay to passive the last couple weeks.

Good luck tomorrow jay hawk fans, hopefully UNC keeps it respectable

damn Self has won 30 games a season 6 out of the last 7 years. Including 4 years in a row dating up to now. I don't think any other program has done that in recent years. The last time they didnt was the season after they won the national title and all their starting/impact players left. Even then they still won the Big12 conf title and made the sweet16 - not bad.
Kansas fans are spoiled w/ their program. Self has turned KU from a national power to a national superpower. 9 straight league conf titles, that hasn't been done since ...i dunno UCLA in the 70's maybe...and in today's game where there is much MUCH more parity now? 2 Final Fours, a NC, winning 30 games in 6 of the last 7 years all while players leaving early for the NBA.....Self just re-loads man......****ing incredible if you sit down and think about what he's been able to accomplish. And Mizzou chose Quin Snyder over Self. That is just ****ing hilarious, and MU is still looking for a good bball coach to this day. |

By all accounts, Bill Self is a good coach and even better man. That doesn't mean there aren't issues ... weaknesses. The fact that some fans can acknowledge both strength and weakness doesn't mean they are spoiled. |

If we get past UNC what I don't like about Michigan is Burke can penetrate and kick out to his fellow jump shooting team. I could see a Baylor repeat if we're not disciplined and just plain don't guard.

Well, got news for them, there is that same stupid shit here in wisconsin. Any time you get out in to the COUNTRY you are going to find hicks hill billies and weirdos........ |
Big Ten continues their dominance. If we get by UNC that will be a tough game. Michians styke of play will neutralize Withey. Does anybody know if Michigan turns ppl over?

Kind of funny that the bracket ended up with 2 matchups that could shut KU down, but gave both of those teams matchups that shut them down before they could get to KU.

Ball handling (specifically dribbling) isn't horrible, but our passing under pressure is bad
