Got anything to back that up besides 'if Kansas plays like that tomorrow...'?

Impossible. The basketball know it alls on here said the B1G sucks and the teams in the league can only score 50 points.

That is all I have read all season as well.

With two games still to go this weekend for the Big 10 and 8 wins and only 1 loss, the pontificators on this board are about par for their course.

Meanwhile I propose KU change their mascot to a charitable baker, because I have never seen so many free turnovers given out in such a short time as I did last night.

Yup,

TCU

Seriously, though, absolutely. Roy has risen to the occassion on a few games this year and KU has certainly not played as they should all season. McLemore certainly did not play as a #1 pick last night.

Heard all this shit last year.

Well we have won 9 out of the last 11 and playing pretty damn decent... Stood toe to toe with Miami for 95% of the ACC Championship game with the lead going back and fourth...

UNC has matured alot in the last month and a half , I also think the Jayhawks are way over rated this year.

Then you need to re-read.

A lot of us have said the B1G is the best conference this year.

But, you can choose to leave that out, I suppose.

His objective viewing of a three or so partial games, obviously.

Also, inb4 TCU

He will probably say TCU.

Like all opposing fans.

Remembering that I'm an opposing fan, his take is somewhat ridiculous when you factor in:
#1 in FG defense in the country
#2 in blocked shots
Top 10 (I believe) in scoring margin
Top 15 (I think) in rebounding margin

They just won the league regular season and tournament in a power six conference

add in that Ellis has exploded onto the scene in the last month or so and that you have likely a pair of first round picks about to be taken in the NBA draft, including the projected #1 pick and it just seems asinine to say they're over-rated

That was a helluva game... I've only really seen them in that game and last night. They had a nice run in the first half last night, then just fell asleep, up to the point of Roy replacing all of his starters. Villanova never should have been in the game in the second half (I've mentioned as much regarding Kansas vs WKU, too), but I think both teams will be much more focused tomorrow.

Kansas has the potential to be what people expect out of a #1 seed, or Georgetown... everyone around me last night held their breath whenever McLemore touched the ball, and him finding his game would be huge, especially if Ellis keeps improving. It seems like they've been peaking in the past week or two, but if they could really put it all together, they'll be dangerous. Outside of the turnovers (and Self's teams always have a lot of turnovers), McLemore's struggles, etc; they should be able to fall back on their defense, as long as they don't have another half like the first half last night.

He's a troll when it comes to CBB.

His rapid response is, "look at the rafters son." You're better off ignoring his basketball takes. It's useless.

ACC is better. Reighters boys will be a tough out.

Not really at all... several people have given the B1G props, and I've even said a few times that 'entertaining' is different than 'effective', and that B1G ball is pretty effective in the tournament..... but, I know that's all lost in the noise of pointless agendas.
