KU about to get worked by samford?

I wish but unless they get very hot and turn it into a track meet, it’ll be tough for them. KU has such an advantage in the front court.

Their actually shooting the 3 well..

I like how samford gets all up in their ass. But refs are calling it tight which doesnt bode well for samford. KU got a few lucky calls so far too

Was hoping Oakland would get up by a bit more so Gohlke could shoot freely to get that 11th three pointer. Still what an incredible game.

It seems like these teams in the next game will be ice cold and get blown out but i hope not

It’ll be interesting to see if their pressure works. Without McCullar, KU doesn’t have a lot of ball handlers.

Man i like this samford coach's style. Moves the ball with purpose on O. All the players score off the bench too. They dont turn it over

Timberlake has the biggest nose of all time. He can smell the future

Obvious goaltend on dickinson

Ref's KU checks cleared

I love their little guy. 4 pt swing all his efforts and drew a foul. Could be a 6-7 pt swing

 

[BoulderSooner]

That is not even a foul

This is a terrible comparison IMO. It’s so much easier to get a tournament win than to win a CFP game much less a BCS National Championship.

Regarding getting a tournament win: yes, that is true.

But at Kentucky, it's national championship or bust. Or at least to get to the Final Four. They expect to compete for national championships, just as we do in football.

 

[hoopsaustin]

Think samford should abandon their press and get back and make KU win without all of these layups/dunks.

It seems like I’ve seen so many big guys playing well the last week. Some guys with really good footwork and moves. Many of them aren’t particularly athletic, but they are skilled. Those guys apparently do exist in college!

You might be drooling over big men.. but im sitting here in awe of offenses with a strategy and movement and cutting and no ball watching

 

[hoopsaustin]

Lol an F1 foul after KU demanded it. Douchebags

Dont think they have enough to get over the hump but I'm praying to the basketball gods

I would trade Moser for Bucky tomorrow. (today)

Set inbounds plays. Proper movement and screening. Pump Fakes, Heart, Hustle ... obv Hardwood.

Give this samford coach a power conference recruiting budget.. at ou
