This is where Bill Self is such a good coach...he's got fricken Connor Frankamp and Brennan Greene out there in OT in a close game on the road. Knows he's going to need them next year, so he gives them valuable minutes

They're going to lose this game, but it's pretty meaningless really. Always planning ahead

He's played well, that's not what I meant.

What I mean, is he is 10th on the team in minutes. Yet he's playing in this game, at this time. Frankamp is 11th on the team. Both getting big time minutes in a big game.

Never had a cramp before guys?? Lol. That's what it is. The muscle cramps up and essentially constricts into a ball. Has to be massaged back out. They fucking kill. And if you get one, you're likely to keep getting them until you comptely rest and hydrate your body overnight.

I got a cramp like that one time after a softball tourney. We went out to eat and in the middle of eating it hit me and I had this huge ball in the back of my leg. I looked like a huge idiot in the restaurant. I had to stand at the bar to eat, couldn't sit back down. Then the next morning I had a bruise.

Tonight was a great game. I have enjoyed watching Kansas all year to watch Wiggins. Just keep waiting for him to take over but he doesn't move that great without the ball. It will all come for him at some point.

I used to get cramps like that all the time in summer league. Those games where you were playing in a warehouse with no AC and like 10 courts, AAU style. It was 140 degrees, and no matter how hydrated I was, the heat and humidity got me. I would get at least 1 a weekend (games on Sat/Sun) one summer when it was 100 outside...and thus at least 130 in the "gyms".

I have this Kansas friend out here, and his FB is unbearable tonight. Going on and on and on about how KU has class and KSU has none because they rush the floor..blah blah blah. This holier than thou shit is ridiculous. I asked him about how KU football rushed the field when they had 1 win.. no response. Moron. Those kids from KSU were having fun, hell yea rush the court, you finally beat KU and it rarely happens, so enjoy it!

Yeah that's dumb. A lot of KU fans can be insufferable. I just ignore those people because there are a lot of good KU fans out there.

Unfortunately every fan base has insufferable fans and they usually tend to be the most vocal (not talking about crowd noise at games).

The only impact of this loss on KU is making it more difficult for the Jayhawks to garner a top seed. If KU wins out, meaning they win both the Big XII regular-season and post-season, they could still get one. With 7 or 8 losses, though, I doubt it. Plenty of teams have received top seeds with 7 losses, but with Arizona, Florida, Syracuse and Wichita State all with 2 losses or fewer, KU would probably be on the short end, especially with Michigan State, San Diego State, Villanova, Duke and possibly Louisville still in the hunt.

If Kansas ends up as a two seed, it should be in Wichita's bracket (assuming the Shockers remain unbeaten). Would love to see that (not that they'd ever meet).

Yeah I don't really care about getting a 1 seed, as there really is very little difference in a 1 or 2 seed, and like you said Rec there are too many teams at 0-2 losses itd be tough to justify ku getting a spot higher than one of them.

I would love to see Wichita state v Kansas. God damn that would be awesome.
