One game at a time.
Don't you know how much fan base synergy in overlooking opponents contributes to the outcomes of games?
Sheesh.

THANKS KCFDcat.

isn't there a fire somewhere or something

We win. Will be lots of fans.
oscar will make some angry looking prayer while scrunching his nose and yelling "BS".
Lon will look horrible. Even worse than last year. The move from elite LV to insufferable OK is sucking the life out of him.
Nino will keep mushing folks.

OU bigs are Nino prototypes

I'll be very pumped for this game.
Osby will give us trouble.

Is that rough rider pledger still around? What a nightmare

Pretty sure he is gone. *Whew*

Buddy Hield is pretty good guys...

They are making 86% from the FT line in 3 conf gms ad 76% overall for the season..... so hopefully this is not a tightly called game

His point production is considerably down this season, but he goes on hot streaks. What we need to avoid is a 30 point effort like last year.

Well, obviously Lon has lost his unibrow, so I'm out of head coach smack ammo.

What is the feeling about Lon?
To young to have seen him play or coach, but seems like him moving out was very dickish.
I was too pissed during last years game to GAF about him.
But what about telling him to go eff himself, Silver Lake bottom feeder etc?
I really don't GAF either that he says nice things about K-State now and is very complimentary etc.

OU has some athletes. Living in Oklahoma (eff me, right?) I've watched several of their games. They're not a very good 3 point shooting team, although Pledger can catch fire (team shoots around 32%). Pledger is about 36% from behind the arc this year. Osby is obviously their best player. He loves taking it to the rim. He CAN make an outside shot, but we want to make him take outside shots. There guards make a lot of mistakes. 2 players to watch are M'Baye and Clark. If they are hot, we're in trouble. Some games they show up, other games they don't.
Overall, they play really good defense, and they're pretty athletic. They barely out-rebound their opponents. I think if we win the game we have to a) force turnovers and b) play good interior defense (along with obviously hitting shots). Henriquez/Gipson/Diaz/Nino will have to play solid post D.
Just my opinion...

Silver Lake makes Coffeyville look like Meade!

Meade and Coffeyville were both hideouts for the Dalton Gang. Are you saying Meade>Coffeyville>Silver Lake?

The story i'd always heard to explain Lonny's exodus into the desert was that his wife was informed that he had left a present in the belly of one of the k-state cheerleaders, and his options where to skip town or get a divorce.

My sources have also confirmed this
-
if more people would just pack their family and move when they impregnate a young extramarital filly, we could cut this nation's divorce rate to nothing.

So just who is to blame here for the 20+ plus years of Catsketball futility after Lon's forced removal from the Flint Hills?
Mrs. Lon
Non-birth control using college cheerleader
Unborn Lon Jr.

K-State played 2 terrible basketball games last year against OU and the only thing we did remotely well was oboard in one of those games. In Norman we got dismantled and played one of our worst defensive games of the year, giving up nearly 1.2 points per possession and allowing OU to shoot 59%. We rebounded almost 60% of our misses, yet still lost by 9. OU had the worst eFG% defense last year in the league allowing 52.7%, yet we shot 46.9% and 44.1% against them in our 2 games. Just terrible performances and no reason for last year's team to get swept by a team that finished 15-16 and only won 5 league game.
That said, this year's OU team is improved, especially on the defensive end. They are a likely NCAA tournament team and should finish in the upper half of the league. However, OU is a poor defensive rebounding team, which should play into our strength. Offensively they don't shoot well (47%) and don't get to the FT line (33.7%), but are solid on the oboards and don't turn the ball over, rating 1 and 2 in those categories respectively in the Big 12 so far. Their best scorers are Pledger outside and Osby inside. OU doesn't shoot a lot of 3s, but Pledger is the guy that shoots them the most, 64% of his attempts are 3s (with only 4% at the rim). Osby gets to the rim far more than anyone else for OU, with 51% of his attempts. We all remember Pledger going off against us in the OOD last year, but he also had a very nice game against us in Norman and reserve post Fitzgerald scored 21. In fact, OU's forwards destroyed us in Norman last year combining to shoot 19-24 and score 49 points. Outside of Pledger and Osby, M'Baye is a nice rangy forward and Hield is a solid shooter and another 3PT threat, both averaging over 9 PPG. OU's pace is slightly faster than ours, but both teams want games in the mid-60s.
The key for OU in their best wins (WVU twice, aTm, OSU) was forcing all 3 opponents to shoot 45% or worse. K-State's offense has been a strength lately, shooting 49% or better in 6 of the last 7 games. K-State will have to prevent another Pledger repeat, but also win the battle of our defensive strengths against their offensive strengths, offensive boards and forcing TOs.
There should be plenty of motivation for K-State's players and I don't see a repeat of last year or this team looking ahead to Tuesday. I see the Cats continuing their solid shooting while holding down a solid OU team.

Lon went to Florida, and then Illinois after leaving MHK. The premise of the story is correct, but substitute "swamp" in place of desert.

Also hotLanta in there at some point.... i was going more with the Moses angle then suggesting he went straight to UNLV... maybe i should have gone more Odyssey...

Based on the fact that their center is the highest scorer on their team, I assume Gipson and JO foul out by the under 8 timeout in the 2nd half.

OU isn't really an attacking team that gets a high FT rate, but Osby is their best at drawing fouls.

The Lon cheerleading pregnancy lore is more boring than the closing Ahearn lore.

How much fun will it be to bbs between today and Tuesday if we beat OU?

It's a sad day when everybody but Angel is making 3's. But his 6 assists, 3 steals and 1 TO is nice.
Why do our forwards (minus Shane) continue to take the worst shots I've ever seen forwards take? A foot in front of the 3 point line, all the time. JO even tried to Dirk one, falling over backwards while he takes a 15 foot shot. Frustrating to watch.
And obviously, rebounding was an issue for a long time. Hope it's fixed for good.

Kept up on the gamecast, haven't been able to watch. Was Gruds 3pt flurry great? I'll bet it was.
