KU NOT SO TOUGH

[cyfanhood]

They almost lost, but the key thing is they won. Being in close games and winning will do a lot come tourny time. So I assume this also means that Memphis will lose in the first round since their schedule is even easier?

Probably Sweet 16

KU is better than last year's team in that their defense is simply stifling. It's a one and done for opposing teams. To win, you must shoot like hell and make a lot.

This is the best KU team I have seen in a long time if not ever. They are very deep and talented at the post. Hell, they have Kaun coming off the bench who would be our best post player by far along with probably 10 other schools in the Big XII. I see them as an automatic Final Four team, but know not everyone will share that opinion! That's why it is an opinion.

They'll lose in the tourney. Week schedule. They about lost to Arizona, USC, Georgia Tech, and Missouri. SAY WHAT?!

We would of lost to anybody last night.

I think I'm starting to smell those "herbal" scents on the message boards this afternoon. What are you smoking, exactly? They aren't the #2 (realistically #1) team in the nation for nothing. Like someone said earlier - do they need to win every game by 50 before they get your respect? As far as us "losing to anybody last night," I'd disagree. We were outmanned by the best team in the nation last night, and that affected our play. We play anyone else in the Big XII last nite and we have a completely different game plan for the situation. I don't see how losing by 25 to the best team in the nation last night is a clear cut sign that we would have lost to teams like Oakland, Maryland-Eastern Shore, or Nebraska, for that matter, last night.

the championship trophey is coming to lawrence this year. they are too stacked. and don't be surprised when they run the table. they don't seem like the kind of team that takes games off.

Kansas is good. Very good. Maybe you meant they're not tough compared to an NBA team...I would be surprised to not see them in the Final Four.

Cyfanhood - You've gotta be sitting there and laughing at the "pot-stirring" you just unleashed......nice work on keeping it going with little jabs too!

Everyone Else - Nobody in their right minds actually thinks KU is anything but the best team in the country and the most-likely pick for this year's NC. No need to let Cyfanhood get us all worked up, that's just what he's trying to do!

Sorry, I disagree. Kaun wouldn't even start for ISU. Hubalik and Brackins are better players. Kaun is a stiff who would be great to have coming off the bench for defense and five more fouls.

I've been burned by KU too many times. No way I am picking them past the Final Four.

[wonkadog]

You're dillusional to think Kaun wouldn't be starting for us. I hate him as much as anyone but he's darn good down low.

Are you serious? Heck that freshman center would get 25 mins of playing time at ISU, he may even start for ISU.

[kingcy]

Yeah, I disagree... I think KU is awesome this year, look at their overall depth. They have a star at 1-5. This may be their year.

6-8 are not bad either.

and he's the captain of the Big XII all-ugly team..that counts for something...

[wonkadog]

Nah, Roby's had a hold of that honor for quite some time now.

[ISUFan22]

So...if KU is not so tough...was does that say about us and our 24 point loss last night?

The Incredible Hulk, Million Dollar Man Ted Diabase, and Chuck Norris are all wusses.
