One game, at KU. And really KU held the lead they had at the half, nothing more. MU had an off day anyway you slice it. But hardly worth dropping them 10 spots as some of you are acting like should happen.

Do you really think this MU team is even close to this KU team?

I hope there is a rematch in the Big 12 tournament. If they play again, on any court, on any day, KU will win. Write it down, take a picture, I don't give a fuk.

I was never so confident in a KU victory as I was going into the MU game yesterday.

Funny, you guys split the series with MU, beat a Griffenless OU and all the sudden you think you are the best team around. You can trash talk all you want, the fact is you lost to MU. If you played at Columbia again, you would probably lose again.

And golly gee, you were confident KU would beat MU at AFH along with everyone else. You really went out on a limb there.

Hey, pete, how come you never take the scores into account? The fashion that your team beat KU is a little different from what happened on Sunday, no?

I bet if we played you at your house again, we'd win...

I'm cool with these rankings.

Because teams play differently on different days. Why didn't you blow out MU the first game then? MU got off to the same shaky start at MU only they came back and outscored KU in the 2nd half. KU made adjustments and didn't turn the ball over at KU and MU shot like shit. The fact remains they split. I don't see much difference between losing by 25 and having someone comeback on you 14+ points down in 1 half. That in and of itself says a lot about MU. And KU for that matter.

Get over it. We each won at home. And I think the rankings are fair as well.

BTW, if you played at MU again I think you would lose again. But we will never know.

Just like KU had 27 turnovers for a reason, MU shot a horrendous % for a reason as well. I mean, MU just must be really unlucky whenever they play KU, right? And before you mention the 2nd half... I already have an answer - KU relaxed and let off a bit and that was enough for MU to come back and barely win that one at home.

I think we both know that KU is by far the superior team at this point.

the average margin of victory this year was KU by 13.5.

I made no excuses for the loss at MU. I don't, however, IMHO, think that it means the teams are completely even, just because it says 1-1 in head-to-head.

MU's home court advantage led to a 2-point win for MU, at the buzzer.
KU's home court advantage led to a 25-point win for KU, that was never, for one second, in doubt.

Now, what can we guess will happen on a neutral court?

This post would make more sense if they swept them.

No worries...you said KU win was the ONLY reason KU was ranked high...they split the series and you are so confused why they didn't drop more.

Seems everyone else knows that what situation is but you.
