Well I'd rather watch us miss 30 threes than go inside and miss another 20 layups. [Reply]

I wish they had showed up in this game, but this KU team could have lost to many teams worse than this one. They just struggle to create offense even at the best of times and USC is a total nightmare matchup for their offensive style as well. [Reply]

It would take an ISU type 3 point barrage. And some luck.

Oh we’ve done our share of sucking but they’ve done a really good job of getting every board and being bigger. And honestly, I think the defensive assignments they have to manage on the other end is having an effect. If Agbaji was guarding a 6’3 JAG I bet he’d have a better game. [Reply]

Yeah, anything after this game would have been icing, even with a 7 seed waiting... was hoping for at least a decent game, but it was laughably bad from the very beginning, so I'm already over it. [Reply]

Me too, I didn't have very high expectations. We seemed like a sweet 16 team or top 25 type of team. [Reply]
This is the 4th straight year that KU has gotten run out of the damn building in their season-ending loss. USC. Auburn. Villanova. Oregon. Especially in the first half.
