Another bad first half, comeback, and eventual loss on the road. The script continue for this team and most disappointing is that today it was older players with dumb mistakes when the game was in reach.

If anyone would've said we'd be 5-4 at the beginning of December, most fans would've been ecstatic. But blowing a 4-1 start with 3 road losses that followed the same pathetic script and its more than justifiable to be disappointed.

The margin for error in the 2nd half of Big 12 play is not very big and now the Cats (and fans) get a week to think about it.

Was Shane responsible for one or two of those turnovers that occurred right before I turned the game off?

Kind of a Shane/Gip combo on the 3.

Sad to be down 1 with the ball and blow it that bad.

Shane has played significantly worse these past 4 games than all of our conference games before that. He's 4-23 on 3's and 12-38 from the field. Just glancing at the stats from those 4 games, his A/TO has got to have gotten worse. I think he's the key to getting back to winning.

Depends on perspective I guess.

My frustration comes from the collective result of all 3 recent road losses and the way they happened. Part of that is fueled by perhaps unrealistic expectations of where this team is at and what they are capable of achieving though.

if you believed the stuff (guarded, qualified as it was) you were tentatively bringing up about winning the league back then, then yes that was unrealistic.

the way the road losses happened is that kstate was close enough at the end that they could have possibly won some of those games.  that's good, not bad.

0.84 PPP and missing 13 of final 17 shots to end a disappointing first half on offense

Gip and Westicles going 0-4 FTs on back to back poss..... then 3 TOs in 4 poss after we had the ball down 1.   All of that in the final 5:15 of the game.

We were 15-20 FGs in the 2nd half..... and there was only 53 seconds left and we were down 7.   We shot 75% and had taken 1 pt off of the halftime lead.     :facepalm:

The Texas loss was a bummer, but this loss was just given away by so so many mistakes and breakdowns

I never really believed the win the league talk even though I participated. I did think this team would win one of the last three road games.

Prepare your sphincters because we are only winning two more games this year.

I think the term you are getting at is "close".  That's a dangerous term.  There is no value in it.  It is not a future predictor of success.

If that hastens Weber's departure ... let's make it happen.

Meh. Just as some overreacted positivity I'm not surprised this string of games is causing the negative side to come out. This is still a .500ish league team on the bubble.
