It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
Just want to see some fight and a lot less unforced turnovers. KU needs to be the more aggressive team today. Do that and they have a great chance.

Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
under 15 turnovers and we should have a decent chance, presuming we shoot a decent percentage
under 10 and we win, i think

Have we fallen into a mesmerized state that makes us accept as inevitable that which is inferior or detrimental, as though having lost the will or the vision to demand that which is good?
Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
we match-up well with Zags, assuming they don't go 8-10 to start the game and we don't have bone headed lapses. We have a shot.
The concerning thing to me is that we seem to have 5-8 minhtr spans where we just are awful, turnovers, terrible shots, bad defense...just entire team dissapears for stretches. We're at the point in the year where those are season ending stretches.
The other obvious flaw is our inability to hold any lead against any team. It's infuriating. We can play great and build a lead and none of it matters if we can't hold it.

Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
I've been a big defender of Juan, but those bad stretches I refer to....I put a lot of that on him. Senior point guard has got to take control and keep those missteps from spiraling into full blown collapse.

unfortunately, i think those are stretches where we’ve had to sub…so, i don’t think they’re going to magically disappear. we can only hope to their impact at this point. quite frankly, Elmarko has to play better just to be able spell minutes for the starting guards. otherwise it sure seems like fatigue will become a factor

Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
yea, I agree with all of that. I'm just hoping adrenaline and momentum (if we can build any) gets us through.KUTradition wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 10:44 ami think there’s a direct linkage between your second two paragraphsTDub wrote: ↑Sat Mar 23, 2024 10:38 am we match-up well with Zags, assuming they don't go 8-10 to start the game and we don't have bone headed lapses.

Sure, but we were still favorites, and should have won

Re: It's Game Day, Ladies and Gentlemen
I am still a little stiff and sore from watching the game late Friday. I am not sure if I will be able to complain about the officiating with the same vigor.
I especially want to thank the NCAA for moving its HQs out of Kansas City and lying about the reasons while launching a many-year campaign to make KU championships difficult slogs while cashing the checks the Phog Allen legacy has helped pump up. (Warming up slowly)
