Our dog-**** scoring ability is going to be the death of us come tourney time.

WTF is wrong with this team.

Thank God we got a couple of buckets right at the end there. We still win this, but man I am all for getting this team rest.

This team is tired, I think they will pull this out but gotta wondering if the Big 12 tournament is worth playing for this year.

The problem is we had to back off on defense because it was called so tight.

I would use the Big 12 Tournament to try to really work on offense. The defense is there and will be there. But let’s focus on developing any extra offense in KC. If we lose so be it.

K-State has traveled all game in the lane and been called for zero.
I've watched a lot of their games, Kaluma's been doing it all year and never gets called. It's maddening.

It really looks like we don't want to win this game. We are so much better than this Kstate team, it isn't funny. But when we turn the ball over as much as our opponent we aren't going to win. That isn't our game plan. We HAVE to win the turnover battle when we are so pathetic on offense.

They're generally limited offensively, had a peak moment a while ago but have maybe returned to the meanish and perhaps got found out on how they get defended.

KSU is not good, but they are NIT level and are playing with some 'last home game' energy today.

If I'm TJ, I give serious consideration to having walk through practices pretty much from now until the NCAA tournament begins. These guys expend so much more mental and physical energy than our opponents do almost every game and it looks like it may be catching up with them as they near the finish line.

I actually don’t think KSU is playing with that much energy. That arena is pretty dead even with the team coming back from the poor start and leading into the half. They just want the season over.
