Jimbo's Drinker Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 QUOTE (Heads22 @ Feb 9, 2009 -> 03:37 PM) When ISU was good, you have to admit it made for some epic matchups in Hilton and Allen Fieldhouse. You may have hated us, but they were great games and both arenas got ridiculously loud. That was before my KU years, therefore they have been bad during my tenure as a KU fan/Student/Grad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimbo's Drinker Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Though I do remember cheering for Floyd's teams during the tourney runs back in the day. I was so young and stupid. haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You may have hated us, but they were great games and both arenas got ridiculously loud. I used to remember to loathe the day when the Jayhawks had to go up to Hilton. I don't think the Cyclones will ever be able to replicate/recover from the Floyd-Eustacy era. Matter of fact, I remember one game I think my frosh year in 96... KU was #1, Iowa State was #4. Both teams were ranked in the top 5-10 for home and away match-ups. I miss having a real rival in the BIG XII North. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
watchtower41 Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 Pretty interesting article on the Jayhawks trips to Hilton. Very cool coincidence that the Hawks don't win the Bog XII unless they win @ Ames. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IlliniKrush Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 What an ugly ass game Mizzou/Kansas turned out to be. 27 turnovers for Kansas and combined they shot 4-29 from 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimbo's Drinker Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Ugly game all around, i was fearful that my prediction of Matt Carrol game winning 3 would come true. A good learning experience for Self and his young team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buehrle>Wood Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 The Big 12, SEC, and Pac Ten are all just brutally terrible conferences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe, but there is a chance 2/4 teams for final four can come out of these conferences. UCLA and OU are damn good teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will say this about KU, their defense was much better than I expected and they got s***canned on fouls.

That game featured Rush, Chalmers, Robinson and Kaun as underclassmen. I think that ended up just fine. I dont complain about refs, it comes with the territory of a conference road game. Collins hits one of the free throws down the stretch its a ballgame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

danman31 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 Bill Self has come a long way as a game coach. From the Illinois days to now. Came out with a good gameplan. Young team got tight in the end of the game. Definitely not as talented of a group as the Rush, Chalmers, etc. group, but this team impressed me. They played solid d for a young team. As for Missouri games being ugly, it's always that way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Self is really doing a great job with this team, but its good to see him coaching hard even after a title. No, this team definitely needs one more post player and watch out. IF Aldrich stays and we add Withey and Robinson and a year of maturation from Morris twins and Thomas then we are set.

LittleHurt05 Posted February 10, 2009 Share Posted February 10, 2009 I'm all for rushing the court when you pull off a huge upset, but when you are ranked #17, and you beat #16, and you run on the court and act like that?? Act like you been there before, or I guess in Mizzou's case, at least act like you think you deserve to be there.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
