What? this team? Complacent? Nah, never.....

I'm still waiting for the other shoe to drop, but it looks as though we might run the table in the Big 12 this year.

Turning Bramledge into the Hawktagon pretty much killed the only legitimate hope a team had of taking us down. We could still lose a conference game, but there is zero reason for any team to believe they can beat us.

I wouldn't expect a perfect conference season. OSU or ISU could beat KU if they play at a good game at home. They've done it before with worse teams (and even better KU ones). OU could do the same if KU gets lazy (though they might have to change from the awful game plan they had today). And Baylor...meh, the talent is there but those guys can't ever get it together even in Waco.

And this is all assuming KU brings their best effort every game...they haven't done that this season. They can't afford to ever do that on the road or they may lose (like they nearly did at Texas). In the end, it's college basketball and shit just happens.

Confidence is growing. He'll definitely be leaned on a lot more next year, so that's a good sign.

I think he's just rather lazy and unfocused. It's too bad because he's a major talent and could have had a much better KU career than he's had IMO, but if he's only going to get serious in the big games, I guess we'll just have to take that.

Yeah, OU needs to get something going. If they get some offense going, they could be tough. I thought they played really well on defense.

That's for damn sure. Outside of that stretch in December, they haven't played to their full potential at all.

OU coach Lon Kruger: "Kansas is awfully good. I thought they were great defensively."

We are now 18-1 in three of last four seasons under Bill Self.

Man he sucks, how long do we stick with him? We can do better, we should be 19-0!

If he keeps studying the game and applying himself, Bill may be a quality coach one day.

He's one of the worst in the country.

**Buehler445** · 01-26-2013, 07:48 PM

Man, this UNC NCState game is some really bad basketball. UNC gives the ball to NCState for a run out. UNC gets open looks and makes about half.

Just lots of really bad basketball. And after curbstomping UNC for 3/4 of the game, NCState goes to ****ing sleep and lets them back in.

Neither team is particularly good. Both very overrated before the season and that's why this game was scheduled as a prime time one months ago.

I'm interested enough to see the outcome, but this is shit basketball. When NCState was running, UNC was playing much worse than Duke @ Miami. Pure shit. And NCState has let them back to within 5. From 28. Dear god.

I think he's going to grow into the job eventually though. It's nice to see them giving him so many chances.

The Pack, at times, didn't seem like they wanted to end their losing streak vs. UNC. Almost gave it away.
