The Konza Triangle.  Will we ever see Fred Hoiberg again?

[michigancat]

Embiid is what a desperate Wooly wanted that rough ridin' African volleyball player to be.

It was worth a shot. I mean, why the eff not?

[bones129]

When u shoot 9-37 FGs in the 2nd half.... you are not gonna beat a team like Kansas. 

KU has to feel good they got out of there with the W.   TOs were a 24-8 edge for Isu and they put the Clonies on the foul line 34 times and still won in Ames

Good points.

[kso_FAN]

Weird numbers from this game...

KU outshoots ISU (eFG%) 53.3% to 34.3%.
ISU forces KU into TOs on 30.5% of their possessions, ISU only has 10.2%.
KU wins the offensive glass (OR%) 42.9% to 29.6%.
ISU wins FTR 48.6% to 31.1% and scores 10 more points from the FT line.
KU shoots 55.6% on 2s and 31.3% on 3s; 40%/16% for ISU.

That 16% from beyond the arch for the whirlybirds was just awful to watch.

Lots of moderately reasonable KU friends/acquaintances really went nuts over last night's win. Like they Super Bowl'd the crap out of this win and talked endless crap to istate0 dorks. Very happy for them

Thanks friend.  It was a huge game for us.  Breaking their serve has a huge statistical effect on our chances of winning the league.  Also, eff that OKclone guy.

[michigancat]

KU fans on twitter are the most adorable group of dorks on the planet. Matt Scott is the best.

At the end of this week, KU could have a two game lead on everyone in the league. Hopefully just a one game lead on us, but still. #10straight

Yeah, before their game started last night they were the only undefeated team in league play. Crazy.

Self is a monster. Looking at his kenpom career numbers, just ridiculously consistent.

[420seriouscat69]

We'll beat them in MHK and tie with them again for the league. Write that down.

This would go in a "Post your Hilton Coliseum Experiences Here" thread, but since there isn't one:

This same KU fan has somehow gotten tickets behind a particular family member of mine for the last three years. He is a complete prick to her every year, including dumping soda on her seat once. He was chanting the "Rock Chalk" chant at the top of his lungs directly in her ear for a solid two or three minutes last night and she finally slapped him across the face and was escorted out of the building. I'm so proud.

So this was at the end when the game was in hand?  Doesn't she know that you have to book it out of there to avoid the parking lot fiasco?

Parking in Hilton isn't an issue when you know what you're doing.

Thats not the issue. I know this is an isolated incident, but some loser keeps getting tickets right behind them for whatever reason, and is three hours of hell, beyond in a fun way. Pretty creepy really. They will probably have to get different tickets next year; seats they've had for years, but if thats the final shot, I'm pretty happy how it ended.

[Lucas Scoopsalot]

Once you learn most KU fans are uppity bitches, life makes more sense

I imagine he must be friends/relatives with whomever has those seats.  Pretty lame that they keep giving/selling them to an obnoxious opposing fan.  Loyal Sons Forever True much?

Those Kansas fans might be season ticket holders too.

My Flood Aggie friend said the two Jayhawks (blue shirts, stickers over the heart) sitting near him also had on Nebraska hats. Take that fwiw

[michigancat]

she slapped someone? what trash.

Being a road fan is an artform and not everyone can pull it off correctly. None of them can be as awesome as ScottCyclone and I at Bramlage in 2012. I didnt mind the trash talk directed toward us, I just made sure everyone around me was trashtalking my team correctly. (Example: Royce White is not a rapist, he mugged a mall cop at the MOA and stole a laptop). Intelligence and accuracy is important.

[Spracne]

Seems plausible the spectator merely was suggesting a therapist for the young man and you mistake it for the rapist. 

[OK_Cat]

she slapped someone? what trash.

yeah, she sounds like a terrible person.  is anyone in iowa not a piece of crap?

Ashton Kutcher is from there. So depending on your opinion that either backs you up or disproves your point.
