Title: I'm beginning to wonder if we are as good as I thought we were or
Post by: waks on January 24, 2007, 07:58:50 PM

if the teams we played are just really really bad.. Baylor is getting absolutely slaughtered for the second time in a row and we only beat them by nine. And it was a comeback win...  :confused:

We are good enough to be a 14-6 (3-2) type team.

We also beat a Baylor team coming of a win over Tech who beat ku.  Don't play the scoreboard game b/c it can go too many ways.

That said, it looks like Drew is losing this team.  There are deficiencies there, but they have more than enough talent to be more competitive than they are showing.  The OU loss was unexcusable and now they are getting punked at home.  His teams are showing the same amount of toughness (or even less) as a Wooly team.

It's hard to take anything from watching Baylor.  That team can be on fire one game and play with anybody, but the next night they can look like Baylor and lose by 40.  We went on a 10+ minute field goal drought and still won by 9.  We could have and should have won by 20+

When ku brings there "A" game they are a top 10 team hands down.

Thanks, Fan. I just hate long droughts in between games because it gets me to start doubting how good we are. If we can take the NU game, then I will be extremely happy. OU and @NU seem like they are going to be the biggest challenges as far as games that we have to win.

if i opened a single sized bag of M&M's, and threw them at the crowd, i'd hit everyone of them. twice. (MU vs. CU)

but not the peanut ones..i like those.

I think Baylor was hosed the minute Tech beat ku prior to the Waco trip.

Yeah, that didn't help.

But they are also hosed by the fact they don't play very good defense, aren't great on the boards, and their "cute" offense based on chucking the 3 isn't working.  Teams have figured it out, Bruce is struggling, and they have 1 inside threat.  They've got 4 solid guards, but they're also combo guards who like to score and they have no one running that team.  They might be worse at the PG spot than we are.  Until they get this issues figured out, they are going to be down their with CU this year.  sys' comments this year about Drew being overrated seem to be coming true.  In reality it looks like he recruits slightly better than Wooly but his teams aren't nearly as good on defense and aren't as tough.
