Dead on and entertaining as always. Curious to see how this one unfolds. This Texas team is about as predictable as Chris Brown on Oscar night.

I can’t imagine us winning this game without Gary Johnson throwing jump shots in while we are in one of our 8:00 minute funks.

I can imagine Craig Way having lively sex with numerous spritely Kansas nymphs on the Jayhawk during halftime while Eddie Oran sprays martinis using a fire hose on the crowd, so my imagination has epic abilities.

Just not the ability to imagine us winning this game.

I’m not counting on a whole lot from Gary.

On that note, do you have a Gary Johnson update?

Probably not. Cole, in particular had already been wearing a boot on his other ankle so there’s that.

And I’m not sure about Taylor. Like you said, it’s pretty tough for a toe to get better in season and it didn’t look good the other night, but he’s been acting like it’s nothing.

hiphop, are Aldrich and Taylor full speed? I know they were cleared to practice, but ankles and toes have a way of getting worse before they get better.

But you’re right, defensively, you guys have a huge margin for error. Don’t let AJ go nuts and stay out of foul trouble and you’ll eventually wear Texas down and pull away.

First off Ginger, we ran a box and 1 on CDR in the championship game last year – it was about the time Rose went off…with that said, I agree that we probably won’t be running one tomorrow.

Trips – I think you’re dead on that you guys have the personnel to stop us in the halfcourt. Fortunately, your margin for error should still be rather thin, because I can’t see you scoring with any consistency.

Always the best basketball previews and reviews on the internte.

Thanks.

I’m with srr here. Kansas would have to shoot 2-25 from the 3 point and go to sleep on defense for Texas to eke out a win at Phog.

It’s going to get ugly.
