KU lost at home to Oral Roberts tonight, 78-71. SI cover jinx strikes again?
They looked pretty bad, especially on defense. They got a lot of turnovers but gave up way, way too many open looks. They also turned the ball over a lot and just looked sloppy all night.
Scott Sutton is ORU's coach and it was their first win over a ranked team in over 10 years. I believe Sutton was an assistant for Self at ORU in the early 90's.
I was just watching the Who's #1 NCAA Tournament buzzer beaters on ESPN Classic and saw ORU 78 - KU 71 on the bottom line. But I thought no way that can't be Kansas! Sure enough, check ESPN.com and it's true. How crazy!
FIRE SELF!!!! Seriously, that is just awesome. And it makes January 13th a little more intriguing. I thought for a minute that Winthrop was going to beat UNC but they had the horses to pull away at the end. Obviously KU did not.
Usually Kansas comes out like a big ball of fire and then peaks too early in the season. Guess they came out like a big ball and rolled across the court tonight.
Looking forward to CFH magic for the next bball season, Georges style.
