Nice win for the Jayhawks. I would have preferred to trade home wins instead of road wins. But KU will keep the record of the only Big 12 team to sweep the conference. [Reply]

BYU is officially my second favorite team this year.
They have a guy named Seljaas who has a super white trash mullet and a nasty mustache.
Also, their point guard (Haws) has already lost his hair and looks like a dad playing pickup at the YMCA.
Yeah, they were playing way above themselves when they played KU, but if they're hitting 3s they can be a tough out.
But my GOD they are SLOOOOOOOOOW. They know what they're doing so they move pretty efficiently, but it looks like my slow ass belongs out there. [Reply]
I'm not watching tonight's game but the games that I've seen, they have played some stretches of really sloppy, stupid ball. Which is really surprising with Few. Normally they're sound, but get beaten by physically superior teams. The games I've seen THEY'VE been the physically superior team vulnerable to technically sound play.
It wouldn't surprise me if they got dumped. But compared to the field, they're one of the best teams Few has fielded, mostly because the rest of the field is down substantially, but nonetheless, I'd feel bad for Few if THIS team gets dumped because they're sloppy. After all the times he lost because they were soft and physically insufficient, to get dumped because they're sloppy would hurt. [Reply]
