We are KANSAS... this kind of loss makes us hungrier for the rest of the games we have this season. RCJH I love them win or lose.

I'm a big Believer that we get a lot out of losing game but I don't think this is one them. We should've won the game we should've won the conference

@Theend, are you a KU follower? Do you not realize that we play much different post season? We just had a VERY bad day today. Bet you we will see a totally different team in the Big 12 tourny and the Dance...

Someone mentioned it earlier.....wonder how concientious Whitehead was since he called the ISU game....
Jaybate in reply to Theend
Like Self was letting his guys discover they weren't unbeatable?
I doubt he would do it.
But after the whistle blows, I have to wonder.
He just never took it to the refs for all the illegal screens.
Self never even contested it. Not even a little.
All Self did was rail at his own guys.
And the telltale sign is that Self didn't make any adjustments at half time.
And when Perry got them on a roll, he pulled him.
Did you see the look on Self's face as he walked off the floor to the locker room.
He wasn't pissed at all. Not at all.

They should put the trophy under the bus and roll right on over it.

Team stunk from horn to hock tonight. Fly home to ADH, throw the dust catcher co-trophy in the case and go to bed. What a POS.
Klineisanazi in reply to Njjayhawk
They usually hand you a trophy in locker room if you are visitor.

Two players had 53 points to our team 58. That's just crazy out of their mind playing by those two. Since this isn't THE tournament no big deal.
Joehawk67625
I thought we were the best team in the country just 130 minutes ago. This is the worst performance since TCU
Oldjayhawk1967inoz
what the he11....? We better get the gunk out now...we got a whole lotta games left to play. Where is the DRIVE we had the last 3 games? I bet that is a long trip home for the boys.
Theend
Wonder which KU will show up for the rest of the games? They would lose to a 16 seed if they play like this.
Mom_of_three in reply to Dek9219
Nope... I don't blame them, but I hold them responsible to do their jobs.

The score updates on this site is just about as bad as this team played. It shows 3:53 left to play. Horrible just horrible.
Jaybate in reply to Mike
I've been saying for awhile that I think KU or OSU will reach the Final Four.
If both teams are playing well, KU is better. Not if not.
Mike in reply to Bwag
They were coached pretty well for today's game. Definitely better than HCBS on this day.

F$@K we're gonna have to share it with ksu I don't know where everyone is from but with me, I have a disstaste for ksu not because of the university, but because of the fans. I've found 98percent of kstate fans are jealous, classless, petty people. I just hate giving them something like this.
Mom_of_three in reply to Dek9219
No, we don't have to get off the refs..while we played terrible, the refs are responsible for consistency and they didn't bring it either.... I watched 4 games today and there were many mistakes in each one. its ridiculous.
Jaybate in reply to Tundrahok
The players have not played well, but I really think there is some correlation emerging between Self's degree of positiveness about the team and his feistyness with the refs that leads rather than follows team performance.
Lindhawk
This is why we want Rick Barnes and drew to stay in these jobs. If they ever hired someone who can coach we would start halving some competition
Mom_of_three in reply to Wissoxfan83
I remember the faces.... I can remember who did what game... because certain refs call it certain ways... and whiteheads games are always pretty nuts.
Wissoxfan83 in reply to Mom_of_three
I don't fixate on refs. I scream at certain calls. I don't know their names.
Mom_of_three in reply to Wissoxfan83
I saw withey get pushed in the back many times and no calls...so consistency by the refs show up again... and i think it is a problem with ALL of the refs this season.
