Big Ten champs! Yeah, I know it's going to be a three way tie... I'll take what I can get with Hummel out!

 

Yes! Hopefully they'll be playing next Sunday.

 

I think there is a chance if Moore decides to make an appearance. He's been absolutely invisible. I am glad that we saw less of Bade today. He spends more time fixing his shorts than he does watching the play develop.

Missouri really needs some bigs. I know Safford is hurt, but even with him, their frontline is really questionable. Any word if that 5* big they landed will qualify?

 

I haven't heard anything suggesting Mitchell won't qualify. I've heard Anderson is still recruiting another big, but I think Stone or Underwood transferring or Green going to prep school(he shredded his knee a month or two ago) is a more likely reason.

 

Mizzou needs to shoot better than 10% from 3 if they're going to beat Kansas. That's all there is to it.

 

On a more bitter note, Kansas remains the only team in the Big 12 to out-FT their opponents on the road. Other teams lose about 10 net free throws going from road to home, Kansas gains a couple.

Yeah Moore is the key. If he is on we are capable of beating the top teams still. If he is off we will struggle with teams like Penn State. That's the difference with Hummel out. Before we had three stars. One could have an off night and we would still be capable of beating almost all teams. Now both Johnson and Moore need to be on for Purdue to be able to hang with top 15-20 teams.

Considering our offense consists of throw it down to our bigs, who are usually bigger and stronger than everybody else's, is it surprising we shoot more free throws?

 

Hey, why was there a fan dressed in a black KKK outfit in your student section? The cotton ball incident wasn't racist enough?

Kansas is 5th in the conference in FTA/FGA. There's a difference between shooting more free throws, and being the only team in the conference to shoot more than their opponents on the road. K-State shoots more FTs than anyone in the country and they still get outshot on the road. /bitterness

 

 

That guy was a pterodactyl, he actually wore that to last year's Kansas game too.

And of all the teams I'm forced to root for the last two Saturdays, it has to be Texas. I can't even enjoy them playing like dog crap.

You're right. The fix is probably in. We're really the 4th best team in the conference.

 

And I don't care if it was a pterodactly, you probably don't want to have a costume that resembles a black KKK suit.

As long as we agree.

I was looking at him from the side and knew about it last year, so I didn't notice. Last year it was pretty obvious that it was a Pterodactyl though.

Seriously? I'm so sick and tired of people trying to make a racism story where there isn't one. Knee-jerk overreactions like the university considering a required diversity course just because two people did something stupid (and physically harmless) and somebody not being able to wear a pterodactyl suit because people may think it resembles a black KKK suit are ridiculous.

 

Oh, and if Aldrich had to play by the same set of rules as everybody else he wouldn't be near as dominating. 6 total team fouls in the second half? Come on. There was so much hacking going on in the first half during the big kU run and no fouls were called on Kansas. The reason they got that run is because Mizzou abandoned the 3 because they were missing and they started driving. However, nearly every possession the shooter was fouled and no fouls were called. At the same time Aldrich was allowed to go over the back and walk at the other end.

I'm not saying it's racist to wear a pterodactyl suit. I'm saying you might want to consider wearing a pterodactyl suit that looks less like a klansman.

And man, Mizzou fans whine more than anybody I know about getting hammered by team that's about 50 times better than theirs. You can sit there and pretend the game gets called differently for KU, or you can acknowledge that you shot 13% from three, 35% overall, and have a bunch of glorified rec center bigs who can't compete with a legit college front line.

 

 

We shot 52% from the field. 50% from 3pt. We had a zillion points in the paint. We're better than you. By a lot. So you're going to have to play a lot better than that to beat us.

Because every time we brought it to the paint we were hacked and no foul was called and Aldrich doesn't play by the same rules as the rest of the league. You better be glad the 3 wasn't falling because we were wide open. Offense played well outside of missing the 3. Have you seen the margin of loss for Mizzou this year? The only two games that Mizzou was blown out were against kU. Mizzou is a lot better school than their record shows and kU would have had a lot more trouble on the road this year against the Big XII if they had to deal with the same homer treatment that everybody else does in the league. Big XII refs are some of the worst homer refs, but not against kU.

In lieu of rebutting your homerific whining, I present you a pic of Cole Aldrich's nuts on some 4 foot 3, DIII post player's head.

Oh, this was the play where he hung on the rim and should have gotten a technical, but guess what, wasn't called.
