You cant beat Kansas when they're like this at home. Just burn the tape and move on, Houston.

It's possible. The only part that's shocking to me is how easily Kansas is handling the boards. When Kansas moves the ball like this, Rebounds, and hits open shots they are tough to beat.
But man, do they lack a floor leader. Harris is always a candidate for "most overrated player in the Big 12" award but this year he truly is terrible. Missinf shots, passing up open looks, turning thr ball over, and not controlling the floor.
Furphy really changes that team. They just need to get consistency out of Adams and Harris and keep their bench of the floor. It's shocking how bad their bench is. Braun and Timberlake wouldn't even see the floor at Okie St. They are Terrible.
Kansas State ever since Tang lost his composure at Hilton
Self has lost 17 times at the Phog since taking over and we have two of those (should be 3 but I digress). It's as close to an automatic loss as you get in CBB.
Its basically been a wash recently though.
In the last 10 games we've won 1 game in both places.
Basically this.
I think Houston will return the favor at home. KU will miss more shots, Houston will smoke then on the boards, get more transition opps and put backs, and win easily.
We need this game tonight. It's winnable and puts us in a good spot the rest of the way, especially if we can hold serve at home.
Back in the day Indiana's camera seemed to be positioned about 3 rows from the floor.
Houston didn't force much in the way of TOs, KU simply got sloppy. Obviously Shead blew that one layup, but KUs benefitted from many of their turnovers being OB. It eliminated the transition opportunities and allows tbe defense to reset.
I think Houston has a good run in them. KU will miss some shots and I can't see Houston being this bad on the boards in the 2nd.
If Duke and UNC were at the bottom of the ACC, espn would still hype the game up like it was the natty.

The "REEEEBOUNDDD" lady when KU shoots free throws needs a kick in the teeth
He needs to ask BRE how much better it is to dunk the ball.
Absolutely no reason not to slam that home every single time.
