Open Game Thread :: #11 Missouri @ #15 Kansas :: Overflow Thread

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...

Two quick thoughts

KU is better than Missouri.

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.

by Bensa on Mar 1, 2009 2:09 PM CST reply actions  

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

by Danny Satan on Mar 1, 2009 2:10 PM CST up reply actions  

Made it over.

Keep it up in the 2nd half and I’ll be thrilled.

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.

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.

But I’d be interested in hearing, from KU fans, what you think of the officiating? (Again, I must stress, not that it matters.)

Your play is heavily dependant on refs not calling a tight game.

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.

and I do think KU has gotten lucky on a few calls today.

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

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?

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

by Danny Satan on Mar 1, 2009 3:01 PM CST up reply actions  

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.”

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.

What will KU be ranked tomorrow?

I say about 10, but it could be as high as 7 or 8 with the losses everybody else had this week.

by Bensa on Mar 1, 2009 3:07 PM CST reply actions  

10 would be about right,

but they could easily end up higher.

yeah I was wondering that too

You have to actually make a new profile? Can’t just change the name? If that’s the case then maybe not, I’ve built up too many stats!

by I need more Esteban on Mar 1, 2009 3:21 PM CST up reply actions  

let me see if I can figure it out

by Owen Kemp on Mar 1, 2009 3:23 PM CST up reply actions  

all right here's how I think you can do it...

make the new account…then go into your profile and click on edit account…

from there you can choose to claim an old account…do that and I think you can pull your old stuff into a new account

I’m beginning to believe, especially after watching Texas v OSU

by Owen Kemp on Mar 1, 2009 3:18 PM CST up reply actions  

Yeah

if there is a stumble then it’s going to be Tech on the road because TX is kind of crap and in Allen, that could be a 20 point beat down

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.

by KTJ on Mar 1, 2009 3:26 PM CST reply actions  

GREAT feeling.

I just got back from your mom's basement.

by Warden11 on Mar 1, 2009 3:30 PM CST up 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…

Yea, it seems like there's North Carolina, Pitt, UConn;

Then it’s wide open. Play well, catch some breaks and the final four is out there for us as well as lot of other teams.

Congratulations...

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.

by mizzoumojo on Mar 1, 2009 3:53 PM CST reply actions  

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.

by I need more Esteban on Mar 1, 2009 3:56 PM CST up reply actions  

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.

Wow, what a game!!!!

I mean to tell you….I watched the whole game with my 7 year old son and both of our voices are horse…. I think that we will go very deep in the "Big Dance’….. obviously at home we had the momentum…keeping focus in a neutral site is key. Morris report will insure depth at the post…… would like to have a #2 seed.What do you think?

by 3 ball corner pocket on Mar 1, 2009 3:55 PM CST reply actions  

Possible for sure...

would take a Big 12 title game appearance if not a win in my opinion

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.

Say thanks to your team for putting the “l” in class today.

I am Jack's unbridled optimism.

Alright, bud.

Just remind me that the next time Mizzou beats Kansas, I should go around saying “Fuck Kansas.” Because that’ll definitely reflect well on my team’s fan base.

Thanks in advance.
