AP and NCAA Tourney appearance streaks are the only things that KU has over the UK's and Duke's of the world. Indicates our remarkable consistency.
and just how crappy this year’s squad is performing, relative to history

WVU Kenpom 21 - AdjO 15, AdjD 40
KU Kenpom 22 - AdjO 36, AdjD 21

No Tshiebwe - but still have Culver.
Miles McBride is really good.
Sam McNeil has shot more 3's this season than Braun.

Should be a really good game. Crowd non-existent as I think they're allowing just 1,000 in.

KU HAS to defend somewhat well. If they do that, they win by 5 or more. If they don't defend well, it'll be a loss. I would imagine spread is right around West Va -2..?

I could see anywhere from us winning by 2 to loosing by 18.
We ain't winning by 18.

It’s February now.

This is the time of year we start not playing like shit any more.

I don't think what we experienced this year is anything similar to our 08 team losing several games in a row. This team isn't elite, and when we don't play well we lose. It isn't that complicated this year. In other years i agree there were times when we had a January or February slump, i just don't think those were due to the same things as this years team.

This is the same team that was capable of putting up 90 on the best team in the land.

A reminder that Huggins gets 25k for beating Kansas.

And also the same team that has scored 65pts or less 6 times.

Oklahoma State moved up! To 23rd, even though they lost last week to a bad TCU team.

Whatever. I guess beating a team that has lost 4 out of 5 is a big deal now..

Not a single program that is top 13 in total wins is in the top 25. Insane thing really.

So, is Ken saying that this was just another fake excuse to restrict player movement. You don't say.

Decent chance we'll look back and think it was kinda silly we were dropped in the first place.

Saw some tweets wondering if we would have dropped out if the 33 point win over Iowa State would have happened when it was originally scheduled.

As silly as that thought might be, what was even sillier was how OK this team was with getting their asses kicked for 3 weeks straight.
