Just how big is Jason Bennett's doghouse?

[WavetheWheat]

He has played limited minutes in the last few games, is this something that you see changing tonight?  I would guess a huge game by either him, Colon, or both is going to be needed for a cat victory.

I agree with Huggins that K-States guards probably can't stop ku's penetration, so they need Bennett in the lane causing havoc with lay-ups, drawing charges, or forcing kick-outs.

Just curious if you expect more out of Jason in this game, or will we see the smaller line-up using Hoskins as an inside guy? (this spells huge trouble if true for KSU)

We're screwed either way.  I think he'll get his usual 5-10 minutes.

I can't tell if you are being sarcastic or playing the Keitzman set ku up to fail tactic, but you can't tell me you really believe KSU has no shot.  No shot was walking into Allen with Woolly and Dramamine Diarra and walking out with a W.

KSU doesn't have the horses yet to compete with ku who will actually pay attention now that Huggins is on KSU's sideline. 

It's a big picture season . . . finish in the upper half of the conference, and get to the NCAA tourney.

First, I'd be interested in knowing what you think a "big night" would be from them..

Second, I'd kill to have Dramane for this game.

Third, I think ku wins about 74-59 or so..though I hope KSU wins.

You don't realize how much better Diarra was than Bennett/Colon, and we don't have the luxury of Christian Moody being on the floor for 19 minutes while Julian is on the bench for 29 minutes.

Bennett just isn't good enough yet to make a difference in this game.

I honestly don't think KSU has a chance.  Call that a "set up to fail" strategy or whatever...I don't really care.

Agreed SoDJ, ukan will bring their A game now that we have Huggins.  With top 10 talent on the floor for Kst8, we win (I will be feeling as koky as you next year, ibn).
