If UK loses tonight, ESPN should demand the Big 12 forfeit the postponed TCU game to KU for marketing purposes

ahhh must be the KC phogushers that pdub was talking about.
I'm just saying that there is an entire discourse machine built to package up and peddle the "but they lost at KU without TyTy" line.CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 1:23 pm If he plays and he's healthy, they're going to be an absolute load.
They had TyTy for only 9 minutes against Auburn and lost by 9 on the road.

Was this written by a high schooler? Jay Allen Fieldhouse? The loss to Dayton being at home vs. in Florida? "Back in November" twice in one sentence? A number of other sentences that read like they were typed drunk or by children. Just proves that anyone can be a "journalist" these days. I hope no one paid her for that pile of garbage. It was terribly written.CrimsonNBlue wrote: ↑Fri Jan 28, 2022 1:29 pm A preview from SEC-land.
The Big 12-SEC Challenge boasts two blue-bloods for its second-to-last game: the No. 12 Kentucky Wildcats and the No. 5 Kansas Jayhawks. John Calipari’s Wildcats (16-4, 6-2) are second in the Southeastern Conference, while Bill Self’s Jayhawks lead the charge in the Big 12 at 17-2, 6-1.
What more than pride and history on the line– a chance for either team to brilliantly beef up its NCAA tournament resumes and earn that dream No. 1 seed. Even more, there’ll be a battle between two major College Basketball Player of the Year candidates, Ochai Agbaji and Oscar Tshiebwe .
The sellout game will bring approximately 16,300 fans to Jay Allen Fieldhouse for tipoff Saturday at 6 p.m. Before that, College Gameday will host its show on the court in Lawrence, Kansas.

Blue Blood Implications
The last time Calipari and Self faced off was in December 2020. In that game, Jayhawks made a big comeback 65-62 to narrow the Wildcat series lead to 23-10.
Notably, Saturday’s game is also a rematch of the 2012 NCAA National Championship game in which a 38-2 Kentucky squad, featuring current Lakers forward Anthony Davis, defeated Kansas 67-59.
Further, with Selection Sunday about a month-and-a-half away, both teams can make a case for a top tournament seed with a signature win.
With both teams ranked in the top 10 of the NET (NCAA Evaluation Tool) rankings, a No.1 seed is not too far away.
Kentucky Wildcats
Aside from two non-conference losses, the Wildcats have lost two road matchups against No. 19 LSU and No. 1 Auburn. Squawking Saturday is the Wildcats’ chance for their first Quad 1 road win
While Kansas primarily relies on two big scorers, five Wildcats average double-digits.
Freshman guard TyTy Washington, the second-highest scorer on the team, left the game with a severe ankle injury. Despite concerns, leading scorer Tshiebwe predicted his teammate will be back for Saturday.
“I’m pretty sure TyTy is going to be with us in Kansas, and we’re going to be ready,” Tshiebwe said on Tuesday.
Washington’s 13.6 points and 4.5 assists per game would be a great addition to Tshiebwe’s 16.3 points and astounding 15.2 rebounds per game. The 6-foot-9 senior ranks fourth in Vegas Insider’s John Wooden Award odds.
Kansas Jayhawks
Second in those aforementioned Wooden Award odds- Jayhawks senior, Agbaji. Agbaji leads his team with 21.3 points and five rebounds per game. Further, the guard is a major threat from the three-point line. He’s shot 47% on the season. He gets help from Christian Braun, who scores 15.3 points a game.
Back in November, Kansas suffered an upset to Dayton via a one-point margin back in November for their sole loss at Jay Allen Fieldhouse. No. 13 Texas Tech more recently defeated the Jayhawks on Jan. 8, before Kansas got revenge on Monday.
With potential March Madness payoff on the line, the ESPN Matchup Predictor gives Kansas a 63.2% chance of winning the game.
