Is it wrong of me to expect to win? I mean, I just don't see any circumstance in which Scott Drew pulls it out in the OOD, and yet, and yet, it's like I'm still so scarred from Tan Tom and Wooly that I can't believe we're a consistently top 25 program who wins these type of game regularly.
-
oh, kstate will eff them all right.
-
It will be a fun game. Baylor is playing the best defense they've ever played under Drew. They've really only had one road win of signficance since Drew has been there, winning at Texas in 2010, so beating us in Manhattan would be a pretty big deal for them. Plus they were one of Frank's traditional shake your head home losses in 09.
-
we're not winning this one. :frown:
-
We are going to crush them.
-
Going to be one where they look much more awesome in their dunkshooting of the basketball, but we Doc Sadler it out.

Yeah, the fat kid in the green speedo will have nothing overly exciting to dance about.

i'm also messed up from Wooly, so i fully expect to lose this game.

It's Baylor. We win. Just like football, clap clap clapclapclap.

Agreed. Was also running over the odds of going undefeated at the OOD in confy play after Sunvold mentioned it Saturday. Seem pretty doable, yet we've never done it before, and the stumbling blocks (as you mentioned) have often been inferior teams in the FM era. Maybe this is the year.

It's very early to start thinking about an undefeated home season. History suggests it will not happen, especially when you add in an extra confy home game this year.
Home records vs current B12 teams under FM:
Baylor 1-1
ISU 3-1
KU 2-2
MU 5-0
OU 1-1
OSU 1-1
aTm 2-0
UT 1-1
TTU 2-0
Total 18-7 (72%)
Kenpom gives KSU a 9.95% chance of going undefeated at home in the remaining 8 games
If we beat Baylor Tuesday, the odds jump up to around 16.5%

Thanks for the breakdown. True that it's very early to look ahead, and I might still be riding the crest of Saturday's game. Still, I'm going to be feeling very good about this team if we can get it done Tuesday.

Would take a win over Bails. Would take.

Heslip and Jackson are probably the key to the game. Tay Tay and the Doc (and whoever else guards Jackson and Heslip) are going to have to do well.

I wonder if the Baylor Baptists have to do a mission like the BY Mormons? And if so, I wonder if Pierre Jackson has done his? And if not, I wonder if he'd like some info on international mission work?

-

they'll get their points. rebounds too. i like both of them as players. baylor can score. the problem is their zones are crap. they looks good against crap teams because they are so long, and they get stats nerds like _fan all excited about holding lamar to 0.65 ppp, but good teams tear it apart. then baylor has to go man and they aren't a great man team because they spend all their time practicing zone.
i like their 1-3-1 better than their 2-3. the 2-3 is crap.
their other problem is that their guards still turn the ball over constantly. they've got one guard that can shoot, one that can defend and one that can handle.
-
get stats nerds like _fan
Was that really necessary?
I think we'll be fine against Baylor. Their defense is better this year, but I agree a lot has come from destroying bad teams. They do have some decent wins and I'm a bit impressed that they've shown they can win a couple grinder type games like they did against Miss St and aTm. Granted, I think we're better and we'll win, but still this is better for Baylor than they've shown in the past.

The Baylor zone with Acey, Jones, and other long armed athletic human beings is the best it has been, so McGrduer aggressively driving to the elbow of the zone and hitting some mid-range will be important. Of course, if we just hit some 3s and get them out of the zone I think we're in better shape. Chances of this slim though. This has to be the most angry environment their playing in to this point. My EMAW says we edge it out and win by 6. My pocket book, if filled with gambling available cash, says Baylor.
Bold and daring predicto: Jamar commits 2 :bang: fouls in the first half, that, combined with 1 foul of commission, puts him on the bench midway through the 1st half. Baylor dunks on bitches with ease. We trail by 8 at half. Over/under on Stan Weber mentioning us being a second half team is set at 6 (I'm going with the over).

I'm just so doggone excited about this hoops match-up. Gonna be a great one at the OOD tonight. Any predictions on when Sandstorm will be played and the play leading up to Sandstorm???

I expect to see a lot of the 4 out 1 in by KSU. Pulling the zone, especially if it is the 2-3 away from the baseline. Eventually we will get a lot of easy looks from the vacated area. Rod is good in this area, as is Martavious.

We have handled 2-3 zones well lately as well. Frank's high post offense against a 2-3 is pretty good.
-
Big XII refs are some of the worst because they're too weak emotionally to call a fair game in hostile environments.
Look to see Baylor in early foul trouble.

i see baylor looking very similar to bama, lots of high flyers that can shoot but not a good "team"

Yep, the Frank Martin Basketbrawl formula is pretty simple. When we both out-OR% and out-FTR people under Frank we win nearly 91% of the time.

thx jvon.
i absolutely love how the Big 12, upon recognizing how hard it is to win in the OOD, scheduled k-state's toughest home games during a period in which excluded nearly the entire student body, thereby neutralizing our incredible home octogon advantage. thx big 12. jackasses.

Speaking of, there were a couple of us goEMAWers that were pretty sure we recognized fanningksu of sharpie-face video fame sitting next to the aisle to our left at that game. Didn't see him after halftime though, seems as if he left early.

Yes, confirmed. That was me. I was getting super pak'd and met up with some other friends in another section who had open seats by them at half.
