Seeing as Bearcat banned me from the KU basketball thread for daring to use statistics to dispel the constant trashing of the team’s best player this year by far, I’ll need somewhere to put my thoughts for this year’s tournament.

In sum, the committee screwed KU again. Their resume (and wins) should have had them at at least a 6 seed and maybe even a 5. Arkansas is also the toughest matchup they could have had among possible opponents and KU matches up horribly against them (stay tuned as to why).

As far as the rest of the tournament goes, I’m picking Houston to win it all and Kentucky (fraud) to lose in the first or second round.

I don't think I've ever seen a worse shooting team than Houston. 2 for 14 from 3 and there were at least three air balls in there. One of the makes was an accidental bank shot that went in lulz.

Goaltending was missed leading to a leak out and 3. That sequence makes it look a little closer than it was. Combine that with Houston missing shots and you get this

If that was a foul on Flagg the other night, every Houston big would foul out of the game.

Duke got what they deserved.

Eject these Florida players, fouling all over the place

chiefsfan987 · 04-07-2025, 08:15 PM

Probably going to be a game of runs from here on out.

Pepe Silvia · 04-07-2025, 08:19 PM

I hope Houston can hang on.

If they aren't fouling they're turning the ball over. Houston mind ****ed them

Gene always knows

KC_Connection · 04-07-2025, 08:24 PM

Refs evened the foul calls up within 2 minutes

Pepe Silvia · 04-07-2025, 08:25 PM

Florida is going to come back and win, nobody can put them away.

**Bearcat** · 04-07-2025, 08:25 PM

Pablo · 04-07-2025, 08:25 PM

I don't know... Houston has a knack for finding a way to win even when it looks impossible.

Florida finally waking up. Stop turning the ball over and this may be a great finish.
