I would not say they choked, but certainly played very sloppily at times.
Lindell is struggling to get his legs under him again. When he does, we are going to be a much better team.
THT is struggling to find his role and I understand he's also been sick. I'm glad CSP is leaving him in and letting him play through it and find his way. I think it's a good coaching move.
I still feel like when it all comes together, this will be a very good team a month from now and into March.

Who wouldn't have signed up for 2-1 to start out conference play at the end of December?
We aren’t really relying on freshmen. We have three 5th year seniors, a 4th year junior, a true junior, and three sophomores. We have more experience and starts on the roster than nearly anyone. Blaming ups/downs on freshmen is silly given Haliburton has been very consistent (up) and steady. THT is a wallflower since Maui, and we have experienced, quality replacements. Our ups/downs are due to the program being rooted in the offense first culture going back a long ways.

I would not have. I would have signed up for 3-0 which we should be if we took care of business. I think we have the talent to make a big 12 regular season run. We can't crap the bed like we did last night. Someone needs to become a leader and hold everyone accountable.
I would have taken 2-1 in a heartbeat when we started out with two road games, one in a place we never win and Kansas at home
We always matchup well with Kansas, especially in Hilton and with Azubuke out there is a reason we were favored.
Okie St has the least amount of talent and fan support in the leauge so championship teams win those games.
Baylor lost in front of a capacity crowd of parents and cheerleaders to Stephen F Austin and Texas Southern, so I dont know why expecting this group of players to get out of Wacko with a win was such an afterthought.
Interesting. There are already two people that wouldn't have signed up with 2-1 through 3 games. More than I thought honestly
Those same 2 would find something to complain about if we went undefeated though. It's one loss early in the conference season, it's not the end of the world.
Not this year, it isn’t.
If not this year then when?Shayok and NWB arent magically getting eligibility back, we have three other guys showing up on draft boards that wont be here very long.
Never thought this team was going to win a big 12 regular season championship and I hadn't seen those expectations from anyone else either. But I think it is certainly possible if the continue to get better. One loss to Baylor on the road doesn't change anything.
Is Lard? Last year we had issues while playing both Young and Lard. Clark went for 16 and 15 against us in Ames.
Any post is liable to struggle against guys like Clark. Good thing there are not many of those guys.
Rebounding and FTs tends to be an area in which Baylor kills us in Waco. Life on the road for non-KU teams
Thats great, so it will only be 32 years between our Big 12 regular season championships, thats pretty good for only 10 teams in a league. Lol.
lolololol
That is ALWAYS my favorite response on the internet. The irony is pure gold Jerry!
40% of our starters are freshmen. Ups/Downs are going to happen with freshmen
THT should have been on the bench last night anyways right?
It's going to drop to 20% once Wiggington gets put back into the lineup where he belongs. Teams can surely win starting one freshman.
