What kind of bullshit is this...really? Ok so James Bond, aka KC Connection has predicted a KU loss for the last 3 rounds and while he was able to stop and watch the game gave us a few nuggets of wisdom...oh and btw, they're going to lose next time.

This kind of delusion is of KCJohnny proportions...the only difference is KC_James_Bond doesnt admit to being a combat veteran.

Duke has one of the biggest front lines that we’ve seen in the sport in a long time, and that meant that Svi — who has sent four years being criticized for his lack of toughness and defensive acumen — would be facing off with Marvin Bagley III, a super-human that may or may not be from this planet.

Should I mentioned that Udoka Azubuike, the best big man on the Kansas roster, played just 19 minutes of the overtime contest because of fouls?

Svi more than held his own. He grabbed a team-high 10 boards, a number that is all the more impressive when you consider that Bagley and Wendell Carter combined for 12 total rebounds. He also added five assists, as the Jayhawks were able to navigate the Duke zone better than anyone we’ve seen since the Blue Devils made the adjustment a month ago.

Yes, plus no Silvio, no FF this year. He has played great since coming along late in the season.

So fitting that not only KU won, but it went to OT.... that's a tossup game every fucking time.

I'll take suggestions for KCC's name change. I was thinking Kenpom_wrong, but I like this one, too.

It's called trolling.

No whining or bitching in any of the other threads, either.

Silvio is mentally and physically an actual fucking monster by the way.

That dude is going to be T-Rob dominant next year.
