Halftime.
This is your new thread, to use for the second half and all postagme interactions. I'm not here, so I can't really say anything about the game right now, but what I can tell you is that we're going to win. Because I always say that.
We're going to win.
Post away...

yep...we'll count it

Two quick thoughts
KU is better than Missouri.
Danny Satan is kinda scary.

I love football and basketball, but I gotta limit myself if I am going to get any work done!

I assume you're referring to DSatan's claim of what ....

Yes,

Yet less disturbing than the image you put in all our minds an hour ago.

Some first half stats
Mizzou 3-8 from the free throw line, 0-9 from 3, 20.5% shooting overall from the field. Something tells me they will improve on those numbers in the 2nd half. We will have to keep the intensity up on both ends of the court.
20.5 is ridiculous
but that also means they gotta shoot 80% this half to end up at 50 on the day… not happening, and therefore, game over
Made it over.
Keep it up in the 2nd half and I’ll be thrilled.

Isn't that Bobby Bell sitting behind the announcers?
He still looks like he could play.

if can't score 18 more points,
we don’t deserve to win it.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
that's why I feel pretty good...
but last game I made the same statement when I said we had to score 65 and we didn’t pull that off and we were within 8 with like 6 minutes to go

feels like a very dangerous time right now...if this get's below 15...

random PP note
at halftime of their game today they showed paul’s “fave 5” players to watch growing up and he didn’t say Larry Bird… that’s bad politics

I think they were lax in the first half so...
they are just trying to ensure it stays under control
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
which I'm fine with,
because if they are allowed to shove and hold in their press, they’re tough.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
I don't think Cole does
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Tyrel almost got him in a lot of trouble there,
but Cole saved him. Good work, big man.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
ah yes...excellent idea since this game lacks any really competition right now
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
That was a tough call...
hard to like UCLA…but harder to like MU
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
A little less juice in this half as far as excitement...
but I’ll take it…the leads still over 20 and I’m not feeling horribly concerned
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
me either.
Keep scoring and we’ll be fine. One more bucket and we have your 70.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
I know it's been said before but...
if Cole and Sherron elect to return we will be sick next year

YOU'VE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME CBS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
Dropping the game and taking me to Gainesville..Fuck Gainesville…
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
I will look at this as a positive...
we have so thoroughly destroyed Mizzou that no one in the country cares due to the fact they think MU is back in it’s rightful place…
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
they really didn't like you using that term :D
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
ah yes...football, good times
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
No, because you have no evidence to back it up.
Aside from that, I have no problem with it.
If you’re going to call Mizzou a pretender, then you’d have to call Kansas a pretender.
You said it yourself:
I’m just not convinced that you guys are top 15, I’m not sure KU is either.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
As a top 10 team?
KU might be a pretender in that regard as well, but not today. We’ll win the Big 12 and move on.
Do I think KU would win the Big East or ACC? No. I think both teams have benefited from having mediocre and terrible teams in the Big 12 this year.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
although our SOS
is much higher than yours. Wins have came as cheaply on our end.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
Goddamn it,
that’s twice we’ve screwed up throwing the ball in bounds.

Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Clearly, Kansas is playing much, much, much better than Mizzou in this game.
But I’d be interested in hearing, from KU fans, what you think of the officiating? (Again, I must stress, not that it matters.)
Because we’ve been barely keeping our heads from exploding over at RMN.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
Your play is heavily dependant on refs not calling a tight game.
At home it will work, on the road not so much. I do think KU has gotten the calls, but that’s life in college b-ball.
by hunter s. royal on Mar 1, 2009 2:45 PM CST up reply actions
That's fair.
That’s an absolutely fair assessment of the situation, in my humble opinion.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
if Anderson keeps putting solid teams out year after year;
then the reffing will start tilting your way; nature of the game. Georgetown under John Thompson got away with very physical play, but it took time & nationally ranked recruits.
by hunter s. royal on Mar 1, 2009 2:50 PM CST up reply actions
that's a very good point.
and I do think KU has gotten lucky on a few calls today.
I just got back from your mom's basement.
I'll say this...
we got away with a lot in the first half…2nd half the refs seem much more focused on keeping things under control…
Now I have been cut out of the game for about 6 mins now due to CBS so I can’t say beyond that.
pretty loose early and I definitely think it hurts you guys due to your lack of a true inside presence
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
you being sarcastic?? mine sucks
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
According to our (RMN's) calculations...
…Cole Aldrich has fouled out eleven times in this game.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
Man, do I love mature Kansas fans.
Nothing like rational conversation!
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
I figured...
…that it was just contained to a handful of people who think that teams with an RPI of 13 are “pretenders.”

Losing by 20 on National Television.
Major Final Four threat.
by KennyGregoryRockThaCradle on Mar 1, 2009 2:55 PM CST up reply actions
Whoever said that they were a major Final Four threat?
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
So, let me get this straight.
There are only four “contenders” in the nation, correct? The four teams that make the Final Four?
So the other teams that make, say, the Sweet Sixteen but are bounced before the Final Four, are pretenders?
Is that what I’m to understand?
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
no, the contenders are the teams that have the potential to make the final four
i thought that was made pretty clear
When?
When was that made “pretty clear?”
Clearly, you and I simply have different views of what teams you can call “pretenders.”
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
i thought it was made pretty clear when i said about 3 posts up "if you're not a threat to make the final four i'm pretty sure you qualify as a pretender"
and at this point i don’t think there’s any way Missouri could beat 4 tourney teams in a row on a neutral court and make the final four
Then this is just a misunderstanding.
I think Mizzou tops out at the Sweet Sixteen. Been thinking that since they beat KU a couple weeks ago.
I just don’t think you can classify a team that makes the Sweet Sixteen as a “pretender.”
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
I'd hope a team that KenPom has ranked 7
is a final four threat. Right?
I just got back from your mom's basement.
because KenPom is perfect
with OU being 17 and Memphis being 1?
I just got back from your mom's basement.
That's because he plays for Kansas :D

Hella
If they’re going to show an effing game than show it. Don’t mess around with this ‘regional’ bullshit. I freaking hate it.
I wish NBC or ABC would carry the tourney b/c they at least have multiple networks on which to show the game.

2 things i wanna see for the last 5 minutes
a) Ty tay start hogging the ball a little and test his scoring ability
b) one of the Morrises make a random hard foul to prove they’re tough
1 thing I'd like to see in the last 5 minute

It's not very often

I've never really understood it.
I mean…wouldn’t you want the team that you just beat to be good?

Pretty much sums it up.
When we played under control we dominated. When we got sloppy, MU made little bitty,eensy, tiny runs.

same to you...would be a good matchup on a neutral floor...
best of luck against OU I’m looking forward to that one

Should be a good one.
Emphasis on “should.” I think Mizzou’s style can give Griffin fits.

I think with it being in Columbia...
it’s a definite chance for MU to turn some heads again…

Nice to see you on the thread;
And I give Missouri credit for a very good year. But losing by 2 at MU, then winning by 25 doesn’t strike me as a tie.

Hey guys
Awesome thread(s). I watched what I could until CBS decided to shove Florida and Tennessee down my throat. Anyway, it’s a good feeling beating MU.
Insanity is just a state of mind.
Player of the game?
Collins right? Aldrich maybe?
by I need more Esteban on Mar 1, 2009 3:32 PM CST reply actions
I'd probably go with Sherron.
Cole finished the game great, but stumbled around early. Sherron had some turnovers, but was a pretty steady hand all game.
by hunter s. royal on Mar 1, 2009 3:34 PM CST up reply actions
While I don't think we have the overall talent
that many FF caliber teams do, having Sherron and Cole is something that a lot of teams can’t claim. A guard and center that can dominate the game. I think the Kansas boys and our other bench guys have really settled into the roles that make our team good. And if the Morris’s or Little can provide that 3rd scoring option I think this team could really do a lot more damage in the tournament than many think.
by I need more Esteban on Mar 1, 2009 3:38 PM CST up reply actions
Taylor has also been
a very good 3rd option the last couple of games. But, you’re right, Este. Sherron and Cole + one more good player a game = KU wins. Who knows how far that could carry us…

KU showed today that they’re definitely the best team in the Big 12. While I’m very happy with what Mike Anderson has done at Mizzou, it’s clear he’s going to have to recruit at a much higher level to ever really compete with KU in a neutral/road setting. This is a “down” year for you guys—wow.
thanks for the words
You guys have a good team, though. I think they need a perimeter player to really step up but if they get the right matchups in the tourney, you never know.

appreciate the kind words mojo...
and no doubt there is a lot to be excited about at Mizzou with Mike Anderson but it can’t all happen overnight sometimes.

I mean to tell you….I watched the whole game with my 7 year old son and both of our voices are horse….

Sorry I missed this one
Putting off my studies in order to get smashed and play Marvel Ultimate Alliance with similarly drunk/retarded friends means I had to sacrifice elsewhere, apparently.
All I have to say is that when I opened RCT, I saw the box score and saw “45-19” for first half score and immediately lol’d. Fuck you, Missouri. Hope you enjoyed your national championship a few weeks ago.

I'd say sorry
but we’re rivals and that comes with the territory. Part of the fun of the rivalry is the emotional high after a big win. If you’ve never told a KU fan off after a big win, then you’re a better person than I.
