WSU @ UNI

Unbelievable. KU down to OSU by 3 with 7.9 and the ball. Elijah Johnon dibbles off his foot. OSU steals and makes layup to win by 5. At AFH.

I wonder if they'll get a home or away game in the NIT?

Someone tell K-State to stay in the locker room at halftime. Ranked Kansas basketball teams are apparently doomed today.

We need Ron back. Makes it much harder to sag off TK and double hall. And has much better D than wiggins... Puh lease heal that damn stress facture.

Ron will not be back soon enough, and not be in shape enough to help us. If he comes back at all...

ncaa, 2 or 3 seed

So I guess we are now officially struggling. Not sure what it will take to turn this around but I'm pretty sure one factor will be to have Cle on the floor and not on the bench in foul trouble. Don't know what we can do about the poor shooting. We simply are not a consistently good shooting team.

When you hold teams to 57 points you should win. Going to be tough if we have to hold teams to under 40 to win games.

Frustrating and disappointing. The great start this year is now fading in the rear view mirror and will be a distant memory if this team can't rediscover it mojo to finish the seasson strongly.

ku just lost to OSU at allen

Well, looks like KU has been figured out. Get ready for a slide to the abyss for them.

8 see if the tourney were played today, IMHO.

I always thought it'd be neat to meet them in the big dance, but doesn't WSU vs. KU in the NIT have a nice ring to it?

Maybe that means they'll even have to play us at Koch.. ;)

you mean funny how. Does he amuse you?

I find it amusing to hear somebody talk about beating CU at CU after we just watch ISUB and UNI beat WSU. Not only will WSU not win in Omaha, but they are not going to be in contention for a title. They are now fighting for their life to just finish 2nd.

[WuShock Reaper]

Ugh.

Most likely a home game. They don't play on the road, do they?

We just lost to a very average but hungry UNI team. They had a 2nd half flurry that we never did totally recover from. Two wide open 3's, a missed defensive switch which gave them an easy lay-up, 2 missed box outs for offensive rebounds for them, then the 6 point run by James. After the slaughter we gave them here, they wanted some justice and found a way to beat us. No wonder they rushed the court on their "day early Superbowl win." What a sight for sore eyes that was.

First time we have lost 2 in a row this Season. We sure made our fair share of mistakes and still had a chance to get an overtime opportunity. Next thing I know, we make an unforced turnover and didn't even get a shot off. Somehow, some way, we have to keep Cle out of foul trouble and keep utilizing Hall more and more inside.

Wiggins gave us a nice lift to give us at least a fighting chance. We need offense in the worst way and he is our best 3 point shooter by far. Though we hustled today, we lacked the execution and offense needed to pull this off. Our 9 first half turnovers did not help.

We have much bigger fish to fry than this game we just let slip away. No game left on our remaining schedule is a 'give-me win' for us so I guess we better start making some shots as before when we were so successful and play our game. Actually, we have at least 3 teams to face on the road left that are as good or even better than N. Iowa.

We struggle offensively and Cleanthony only gets 9 shots. Even with his foul trouble he should get more than 10 shots a game.
We struggle offensively and guys are turning down open 8-10 foot shots half way thru the shot clock. Shoot the damn ball.
We struggle offensively and we're walking the ball up the court. Right now we need every second we can get.
We struggle offensively and we expect Carl to make plays from 15-18 feet away. Not his game.

Vent, vent, vent. I'm glad this funk is happening now and not 3 weeks from now.
