Hansborough= most overrated player in college hoops. You put a hand in his face but don't foul, he'll miss. Period. He's one of those players that makes things look more difficult than they are, which always seems to sucker announcers/media types into full-fledged love affairs.  Lawson, Ellington, and maybe even Thompson are better players for UNC.

As for tonight, a good solid effort should allow us to cruise to another easy victory. It's worth noting that we haven't even been challenged since Sherron got back up to full speed, despite playing some decent teams on the road.

The thing I love about this KU team is how Self seems to trust them more. They don't run nearly as many set plays as they have in the past, which I felt was a weakness exposed in the UCLA game last year.

Add in the improvement we've had in offensive post play, and it's easy to see why this team is having a better go of it than last year, despite losing Julian (I'm sure Misery fans still remember his performance the last time these teams played in Columbia).  

KU up 5.. 11 to go

The half-time score was announced by the bride after the dinner toasts.

This was a very fun wedding.  After handing the groom a printed copy of the fine print of her wedding vows for him to consult throughout the years the bride softened the blow by telling her husband that, to her, he would always be her "Captain Kirk."  Following the exchange of vows a Tom Jones impersonator sang "Without Love."
