No they lost to KSU & OSU. The squawks record is 14-3. Are you retarded?
Is Kansas the worst . . .

He is a roll now. He is off is meds on Basketball IQ. But on the bright side he is spelling out words and using complete sentences.
Iowa State is a decent team. Led by Seniors. Good guards. Strong coach. Ice storm in Ames tonight but it will be a sell-out. When Kansas comes to town, there is excitement.
Is KU the best team in the country? Probably not. Do they deserve the #1 ranking right now, at this moment? Probably. The #1 ranked team does not always mean the best team.
They're likely to lose at UK and WVU, but stranger things have happened. ISU always gives them fits, but they *should* win that one. For now, the rankings are symbolic more than anything.

This post is indicative of the off-topic, politically charged rhetoric that has taken hold on this message board recently.
The AP Poll has been around. Does Double Oaked Juice have critiques of the AP poll that are objective? (BTW, there are objective arguments to make against the AP Poll). Or, should we all just forgo discussion about sports because someone yelled "Day VOTED FER HILLARY" at us?
KU is good. They don't really have a post presence though. Their guards and wings are very good though.
Started watching the ISU game, but had to turn it over. ISU sucks hard. No passion whatsoever, bad shots, bad passing, etc.
I'll reserve judgement till after January 28th. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
Pretty easy to stay out of foul trouble when Iowa state keeps the ball on the perimeter and shoots jumps shots every time down.
That call right there is exactly what people are talking about. KU gets a home whistle on the road every time.
There is letting them play and there is this. A joke. 4/5 of the game gone by and 6 fouls on one team and 7 on the other. Why do we never get that?
When you coddle a kid they fail in the real world. When you coddle a basketball team, they fail in the early rounds of the tournament. Kansas doesn't know how to play basketball when the calls don't go their way.
UCLA has the best win of anyone in the country and their lone loss was on the road to another Top 10ish team at the buzzer. I don't get why UCLA isn't getting respect.
They beat Kansas State in the Phog on a blown call and almost dropped one to Okie State.B12 refs call way less fouls than SEC refs, even after accounting for a fact that you got a team like WVU that fouls like crazy just because of the style the play.
Iowa St is 4th in not fouling this year. Last year they were 6th, year before that 3rd. So I guess not calling fouls on them is pretty typical.
I disagree. They're pretty damn good. Shooting better than 50% from 3 last time I checked. Their backcourt is carrying them, imo. It sure as hell isn't Lucas or Bragg. And Jackson hustles but he can't make a jumper to save his life.
So your team wins and you head straight to a UK board? Dude you're obsessed.
KU's lack of depth is going to catch up with them. Only go 7 deep. Will be an issue at some point.

Prohm is out of his league in the Big 12. There's no way in hell they should have been allowed to jack up all those 3's when you have Burton down low who was clearly too much for Lucas to handle. They could have fouled Lucas out by the 12 minute mark if the 2nd half but they kept jacking up those 3's. Bad coaching.
I'm sure our guards are doing the same thing. KU has had a bunch of nail biters and seems vulnerable. UK is number one in Kenpom. Also UK has a good defense, it is number 13. Remember our fast tempo creates more possessions which creates for more scoring opportunities on each side.

The worst N0. 1 team I can recall seeing was San Francisco in 1976 (I think that was the year). Got blown out by about 40 in the NCAA tournament by UNLV.
Look at this guys last
Literally everything you post sounds really stupid to begin with...and remains really stupid after the fact. Kansas shot 5 FT's all game and amazingly we don't batch b/c we know thats the style of game that was played.
One day I'm going to ride into Lawrence in a Boss Hogg caddy and I'm going to punch every smuck with a KU shirt. That's my bucket list. I'm going to punch so many KU fans in their face that it'll be in history books.
