Nothing?
That is somewhat shocking.
Dayton up by 6 early on West Virginia (GO FLYERS!)…
Pitt only up 1 on East Tennessee State (GO BUCS!)…
Arizona State up 9 on Temple at half (GO OWLS!)…
Missouri up 5 on Cornell (GO BIG RED!)…although go Big 12, too.
Everybody will be back in a bit, I bet.
We all just needed to take a postgame blow, and relax for a bit. Second half of the Misery game should be booming.

My thoughts looking back on the game
After beating NDSU, and surviving that onslaught of white boy shooting, I am not NEARLY as worried about a potential WVU matchup next round. Sure, WVU is a better team, but what seems to kill KU more often than anything is the other team have that one guy that goes off and torches us. Ruoff could do it for WVU, but he is no Woodside. Woodside could do it all: shoot the 3, get to the basket by any means possible. We don’t really have a guy that can shut down the multi dimentional player. But, what we do have is a guy that can stick on a pure shooter and stop him.

Agreed.
Both DAyton and West Virginia are TERRIBLE shooting teams, for the most part.
Both are incredible on D, and both have plenty of size and length and really good mid-range games.
But besides Ruoff for WVU, no one can really knock down shots for either team.
That NDSU game should be
the toughest one we play in Minny this weekend. Its just so hard to keep up with a team when a guy is going off like BW was.
If Sherron can keep that hot shooting going from today, then I feel like we can beat anybody. We go as Sherron goes. Well, Sherron was REALLY going today. Elite Eight or bust!

here's my question
he really impressed me, is he a pro player you think?
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 2:38 PM CDT up reply actions
I don't think so.
Perhaps a backup point, but that’s his ceiling.
He doesn’t play defense at all, really. And while his offense is insane, and his little runner is unstoppable, he’s not consistent enough of a shooter IMO.
Woodside is probably...
too small to get a look…there’s a reason the only comparison they could come up with was Steve Nash
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
a 2 time MVP isn't a comparison I'd be too upset with
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 2:41 PM CDT up reply actions
my point was though...
that there aren’t many guys that have been successful fitting that profile
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Just got the stat rearview up...
otherwise I would have been here sooner….interesting games developing right now

it'll be old news once the first upset of the day happens...
the problem with the little guy stories is they are forgotten quickly unless you pull the upset
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
I'm really surprised by MU v Cornell...
although I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again Missouri is a 2nd half team…they are shooting pretty poorly right now but I’d feel comfortable saying they’ll be scoring 40 in the 2nd half.
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
he was pretty vocal....
about letting you know he didn’t agree…of course what else is new w/MP our local tiger
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Cornell is dangerous, definitely.
But right now, up four at halftime? UP four? I’m feeling alright.
We love this stat over at RMN: Mizzou is 27-1 in games that they don’t trail by double-digits at halftime.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
haha
what is the record in games trailing by double digits at halftime?
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 3:05 PM CDT up reply actions
1-5
It is, quite literally, the single most indicative predictor of Mizzou’s outcome.

Tell me if I'm crazy...
One of my KU friends says that he would take Woodside over Sherron any day. (He’s not the biggest Sherron fan, keep in mind.) I think BW is ok but all he has is that runner.

I wouldn't say that's all he has
he was surprisingly fast….I wouldn’t take him over Sherron, but Sherron’s decision making definitely makes me mad sometimes, you gotta think on a good team, Woodside would be pretty crazy…then again, maybe on a good team he never realizes his potential
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 2:50 PM CDT up reply actions
I'd take Sherron.
But Woodside might be the better scorer.
I love Sherron, and he’s definitely more of a leader and was huge for our team this year, obviously.
But Woodside shoots 45% from three, drove to the bucket at will and has the unstoppable runner. Sherron settles for too many jumpers, honestly.
I’d still take Sherron, but Woodside probably is a better overall player on offense. Dude can’t play D worth a shit, though.
Bingo.
Dude can’t play D worth a shit, though.
That’s the difference between Collins and Woodside. Yeah, in a shooting contest, I’d probably take Woodside. But for an all-around player? Collins, every single time.
My 2009 New Years Resolution: Quit feeding the trolls.
woodside is a product of the team he's on....
put Sherron on NDSU and he’s probably doing similar things…it’s just the way he’s forced to play
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Sherron is really good
but he’s a horrible decision maker
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 2:53 PM CDT up reply actions
Woodside doesn't have to make decisions it's dribble drive...
or shoot…pretty easy :D
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
I disagree entirely.
Woodside would be even better here, with the increase in surrounding talent. Obviously, his stats would go down, but I think he’d be a better player.
They are awfully even, to me.
+1
he’d probably pass a lot more with more talent around him….guess it’s kind of hypothetical, though….at one point in the game I saw him really trying to find his teammates but they weren’t really coming through….kind of like Mayner for VCU last night
by I need more Esteban on Mar 20, 2009 2:56 PM CDT up reply actions
Agreed.
Plus, KU played today, too. That always helps.

MU v Cornell...

that one surprises me...I really didn't see them in that game

RChalk....
looking ahead how do you think we matchup w/Dayton if they hold on
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
Very similar to West Virginia, really.
Virtually identical.
Very long, very rangy, very tall and very athletic. Not a whole lot of shooters to speak of. Mid-range game, and down low are their high points.
That’s just a brief summary, without looking at the KP page.
honestly...I do like the fact that neither of them...
is crazy good from 3

How bad does everybody want to play Dayton instead of WVU?
I almost think that we would be better off, for next week’s purposes, if we played the better team in WVU. We play a weaker team like Dayton, and I can see the guys getting lacksidasical, kinda like they did at the end of Big 12 play, thinking that they are better than they are because they are in the Sweet 16, and they haven’t really played a really good team.

nah...I don't think it matters too much for next week...
who we play this week…wins in the first couple rounds are what matter
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
I'm pretty sure that is called "overthinking".
I highly, highly doubt we’ll ever get lacksidasical.
Dayton is a damn good team, and could easily whip us up by double figures.
If we play like we did today, we would likely lose to the Flyers, I think.
Just win and advance. That’s it, KC. I don’t give a flip about next weekend, right now. I just want to get there.
Damn, I'm wrong, again.
It makes sense in my head, though.

I wish ETSU was a better free throw shooting team...
they’d probably be winning if they were

They are 78% on the year.
One of the best in all of college basketball.
They are just having a terrible day, today.

I thought that is what I heard.
They shoot 72% on the year. Still, much better than their average today.

I check the spreads online and things.
Right before tip, online sites had it at 10.5

but the Star showed 9 this morning. I’d think that would be a Vegas line. No real matter.

Cornell looks like a high school team. Maybe MU wore them down, but they have no one who can get their shot off by themselves. Arena looks only 1/3 full also. Why do they keep giving Boise games?

it was about like that in the first half too...
but Missouri wasn’t making much either so it stayed close
Some people are like Slinkies...not really good for anything but they make you smile when pushed down the stairs.
They are just a team of three-point shooters
and a 7-footer.
And yes, they are painfully thin, so I’m sure they got worn out.
Dayton really looks like they are going to win.
That is a positive.
Dayton is really dangerous, sure. And in no way are we locks.
But damn, I was not prepared whatsoever to do a preview of Dayton. I was sooo sure that KenPom’s darling, West Virginia, would win. I’m shocked.
Wow. They are very similar, though.

But, that just goes to show the uncertainty of the Tournament. It’s what makes it the best three weeks of the year.
If they played 10 times, I’d bet West Virginia wins 7 times. But, hey, they only play once in the NCAA Tournament.

Another example of the ridiculousness of Missouri fans...
or maybe I should specify in saying the folks on tigerboard…
All week it’s been “oh Kansas is going to lose by 15-20 blah blah blah….”
now we go out an win and there saying “Kansas could only win by 10 and we won big, NDSU is so much worse than Cornell, KU should have won by 40”…
I don’t want to generalize at all here but the guys at tigerboard might be the most ridiculous message board I’ve ever seen in my life…ever

Question
I’ve never understood why any Kansas fans go over there.
Like, ever. Sure, I mean, if you wanna laugh at it, but I really don’t see the point in going over there then getting riled up about what they say.

Big East was undefeated until West Virginia lost.

ACC lost Clemson
Big 10 lost Illinois and Minnesota

Here are the records for every conference
that has played more than one game, so far.
Big 12 — 6-0
Big East — 4-1
ACC — 3-1
Big 10/11 — 2-1
SEC — 1-2
Pac 10 — 3-1
MWC — 1-1
At least, I think that is how it’s gone so far.
Here are the rest:
A-10 — 1-0 (still to play: Xavier)
WCC — 1-0 (no one)
C-USA — 1-0 (no one)
Horizon — 1-0 (Cleveland State)
As for the above conferences, the Big 12 is done with remaining first round games:
Big East — Louisville.
ACC — Florida State, Wake Forest and Boston College.
Big 10/11 — Wisconsin, Michigan State and Ohio State.
SEC — Absolutely nothing
Pac 10 — USC
And I was wrong on two above:
Big East is 5-1
Big 10/11 is 2-2
HAHAHAHA
Misery 22nd tourney appearance… 2nd most all time without going to a Final Four! Hahaha, only team with more is BYU.
"I log on to RCT after school, and I see the 228 comments on this thread. I actually immediately panicked, because knowing KC, I figured some other fan from another school (most likely Mizzou) came over and said something stupid. Then, KC freaked out at him, and said something stupid (no offense, KC, but this really wouldn’t be that extraordinary for you to pull off) and then there was mass hysteria. I would have to ban people, and warn people, and it’d be mass chaos." - SlowDance

wow that's a surprising stat
i woulda thought they for sure snuck in to the semis at least once before
They used to be first all time.
There extended streak of not making it cost them the top spot, I suppose.
not sure if anyone else is here, i was just gonna see if people are still keeping up with warden's game
if my simple addition is correct i think i got 43 with 2 teams already eliminated and 2 yet to play
nice, yea i took wake thinkin they would have at least a 2-game run in em
but it’ll be a real good game tonight between them n Cleveland.
