Van Fleet 5'11" and Baker's 6'3" hero ball antics aren't going to fly
against this Jayhawk roster. Kansas is stacked to the hilt with bigs.
Bigs who are also athletic and play smart. Dribble penetration is
going to be a lot easier for Kansas than for the Shockers today.
Did you know KenPom has Kansas as the #1 team in the nation
for Strength of Schedule ? #1 vs. #101. They had the toughest T
schedule of all teams with both the #1 Opposing Offense rating
and the #1 Opposing Defense rating. Wichita is 100 slots weaker schedule.
Wichita has gotten here based on its success vs. smaller schools.
Their average opposing offense rank is 146 and defense is 85.

In state resident and have been my whole life...Live in Lawrence and went to KU for 4 years... its not that Bill does not want to play WSU, but he has nothing to gain from it.. We are putting teams like Kentucky, Utah, Georgetown, and Michigan State in our non conference play to cover all coasts of the US and gain exposure from the country's hottest recruits.. We must travel out of state to achieve this..WSU fans are very cocky in state right now about what is going to be the outcome of the game.. But in all honesty, all of the talk this week about Kansas being "scared" to schedule them has provided the Jayhawks added incentive to smash the shockers.. I love both teams as I am a Kansan, but the talk has to end today ( and will).. Expect a very entertaining game but Kansas is just far too deep, long, talented, and motivated to lose this one.. It will end up being KU by about 8-12 pts.

uni is the best bet of the day.. press wont faze them and they will grind this shit lou team to dust.. hopefully this keeps you from fukkiin up any more..dont bet ku either, see the thing is is you betting the 2 most overseeded teams vs the 2 most underseeded teams, stop having a small school bias... your welcome

[bmehrer]

on louisville and kansas here too.....nothing about small school bias.

[RavensFan2k3]

So what is it about?

maybe ku pulls it out, they do present some problems for shockers down low. although i think shockers are mentally tougher and their guards are better than ku's. i like shockers but i think that gm could go either way.. far as ville id love to hear why you like them other than disrespecting uni for playing in a somewhat weak conf? uni far and away the better team and should have been a 3 seed not a 5 as they been a top 10 team all season imo..

Is it time for the yearly kansas collapse?

wouldnt even be a collapse. shockers a legit top 15 squad that was severely disrespected by the committee..

Louisville is so bad and UNI is a legit final four team, Bet Louisville at your own risk

[TPowell]

Wichita will keep Kansas off the glass and Kansas won't be able to turn them over. On the other hand, Wichita will force the always sloppy Kansas team into dumb turnovers. Wichita will protect the paint. Game comes down to if Kansas can make the 3 point shot

uni is in fact in my final 4, in every bracket i did

[NardVa]

I thought the line would have been -4.5 to -5.5 in favor of Kansas. The line is showing as a pick 'em. The line might close with Kansas being small dog.

[bob6199]

uni is in fact in my final 4, in every bracket i did

mine too and considering i put Iowa State on the championship game,(trying to be cute and not go duke), i really would like to see them make it to the final four.

[YouHave2outs]

northern iowa and wichita st both move on in my bracket.

[TPowell]

keep in mind the biggest guy Kansas plays is Ellis and Traylor at 6'8 around 220. Wichita has a couple 6'7 245+ pounders inside

if it makes you feel any better duke not making it either.. this is zags bracket to lose (of coarse zags in my final so im biased, lol).. i think utes will give puke everything they want and then some. have utes knocking off puke, but if they dont zags will..

i got duke losing to utah...and gonzaga losing to utah as well

rather the only small who plays is Mason and he's 5'11 at guard.
All these players average over 11 minutes per game:

Ellis 6'8 220, Alexander 6'8 240, Traylor 6'8 220, Lucas 6'10 240,
and they also have big guards. Selden 6'5 230, Greene 6'7 215, Mykhailiuk 6'8 220, Graham 6'5

Fukk you

[2daBank]

i got duke losing to utah...and gonzaga losing to utah as well

utes/zags would make for a very good elite 8 match up and i certainly wouldnt sit here and tell ya you wrong for taking utes even tho i have the zags..for me i think that wiltjer would make the difference in that gm as he a incredibly tough match up for utes (well for most teams)..

Alexander isn't playing

[Snowball]

Alexander isn't playing

thanks, yeah.. but every single Forward on their roster is either 6'8 or 6'10.

[xdodger19]

Kansas is way undervalued this whole tournament, and I like the UNI play, UNI can match up against Louisville inside, and they execute better offense. Kansas is going to be too fast, too big and too skilled for Wichita city

[Itsamazing777]

For the last time wich state is not small.......

[jgallagher80]

yeah pretty sure snowball is vegas trying to drum up support for what they know will be two losers

[Snowball]

never thought backing Kansas and Louisville in 2nd round
would bring so much flack.
