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.

It was always about Clayton. He was the story.

Refs are letting them play. I like it.

Pepe Silvia · 04-07-2025, 08:48 PM

Best title game in 5 years.

Remember. Slamming the ball down is always a technical unless you’re CDR and you’re just mad at yourself.

They'll call it The Reverse Dickinson after being scoreless in the first half.

Florida had 30 points after 25 minutes and almost made it 30 in the next ten.

I once got a technical doing that in HS ball in response to a terrible call

Did you ever notice right after he did that Darnell pounded the ball into the court as well? I didn't notice it until after I watched the game on replay. It also wasn't called.

I haven't watched basketball in a long time. I watched in the 90s a lot after the NFL season was over. "Big Mondays"! Watching this it appears there's no such thing as traveling.

2022 was pretty great. Two blue blood rivals with KU coming back to win after a huge point deficit. KU fan or not, that’s pretty good stuff.

Did you ever kick the ball like Nick Nolte in Blue Chips?

tk13 · 04-07-2025, 08:55 PM

There's one. You could have put money on this.

Didn't realize the shooting in that game was almost as bad as tonight... guess it looks different when you're hanging on every possession.

Crunch time.
