Played well enough to win but didn't. We beat ourselves down the stretch.

You HAVE to draw something better than that garbage at the end up. That ball needs to hit Lipsey on a sprint. If KU executes there we don't even get a shot off because of the fouls to give. It looked like they were trying to foul Lipsey and the whistle was swallowed.

LOL hoping for a foul on a potential buzzer beating 3 pointer at Allen Fieldhouse...keep hoping.


Great fight though. Love this team.

Would have liked to see Holmes drive it there. Not a great play to end it.

Did Grill think he was that TCU fuard and he’s going to get a foul call on that 3-pointer attempt?

Caleb, I know you’re from Kansas but you’re not in Kansas anymore.

Kind of wish we wouldnt have called TO there. Gave Self the opportunity to coach his team, potentially to foul before the shot.

Also don't understand why Kalscheur was roaming the baseline until the last 4 seconds. Waited to long to do something. Grill had difficulties breaking free all game long.

That was just a fantastic basketball game that came down to one play. Not the shot we would have wanted for that play, but can't fault the heart and determination of this group.
It was. Nothing to hang their heads about.

As the announcers said, lots of 50/50 situations that were about 70/30 today (like that Shoon block, missed rb, couldn't get a jump ball, KU gets a bucket with 2 seconds on shot clock)

Yeah...and his shot it as if he was fouled. The KU guy did great staying off.

Lots of self inflicted damage and lost by 2. We got a great team

That stretch where we gave it away like 5 times in a row without getting a shot up, was very important. Not even caused by the opponent.

It's like there was a body swap for like 3 minutes real time with a group of junior high players.

Other than that, I think our guys have more heart than them. It may come in handy later.
