OPEN GAME THREAD: Kansas (Part 2)


#5 Kansas St. Wildcats (24-4 | 11-3) AT #2 Kansas Jayhawks (27-2 | 13-1)
The Battle for First Place (sort of) | The Sunflower Series
Allen Fieldhouse — Lawrence, Kan.
Wednesday, March 3 — 7:05 PM CST
Big 12 Network | ESPN Full Court | ESPN360
I have no words for our enemy tonight. We're past the point of needing words.
It's time for action.
For my previous analysis of the Jayhawks, click here. To remind yourself of what happened last time (and how could you really forget?), click here.
For K-State's game notes, follow the jump.
From the K-State Sports Information Department:
Kansas State (24-4, 11-3 Big 12) begins the final week of the regular season at famed Allen Fieldhouse, when the Wildcats travel to Lawrence on Wednesday to face archrival No. 2 Kansas (27-2, 13-1 Big 12) at 7 p.m.
The squad still has an opportunity to tie the Jayhawks for the Big 12 crown — two Wildcat wins and a loss by Kansas at Missouri on Saturday would give K-State a conference title for the first time since 1977.
Several streaks will be on the line in the contest — the Jayhawks own the nation's longest home court winning streak at 58 games, while the Wildcats have won a school-record (Big 12 era) seven consecutive conference games, including six straight on the road.
This will be the 269th meeting between the two rivals in a series that dates back to 1907.
It will mark just the third time that both schools have been ranked in the Top 5 when playing and the first time since Feb. 3, 1958.
This will be the first time K-State has been involved in a Top 5 match-up since No. 2 Cincinnati knocked off No. 4 K-State, 69-64, on March 18, 1961, in the NCAA Tournament at Allen Fieldhouse.
Kansas owns a 177-91 record all-time, including an 80-35 mark in Lawrence.
The game will be broadcast regionally on the Big 12 Network, as well as nationally on ESPN Full Court, with Dave Armstrong (play-by-play), Reid Gettys (analyst) and Melissa Knowles (sidelines) on the call.
K-State moved further up in the Top 10 on Monday, ranking fifth in both the Associated Press and ESPN/USA Today Coaches' polls.
It marks the school's first AP Top 5 ranking since March 7, 1962, when the Wildcats ranked third, while it is their fifth Top 10 ranking in both polls this season, including the fourth straight week.
It is the highest ranking in the coaches' poll since USA Today took over ownership of the poll in 1993-94.
It marks the first time that the program has ranked among the AP Top 15 for nine consecutive weeks since the 1961-62 squad was ranked among the AP Top 10 for 15 weeks, while the team's current 12-week stay in the AP Top 25 is the longest since the 1972-73 squad was ranked for 16 straight weeks.
The Wildcats are off to their best start in nearly 50 years with their current 24-4 record.
Their 24 wins tie for the fourth-most in school history and the most since the 1987-88 squad won a school-record 25 en route to the Elite Eight.
The team posted its 23rd 20-win season on Feb. 13, becoming the first Wildcat squad to tally 20 or more wins in four consecutive seasons.
In addition, Frank Martin became the first head coach in school history to post three 20-win seasons to start a career, while the win over Oklahoma on Feb. 20 gave him the most wins by a head coach in his first three seasons.
K-State ran its winning streak to seven games on Saturday with a gritty 63-53 victory over Missouri at Bramlage Coliseum.
It was the Wildcats' seventh in a row in league play, which ranks as the longest in the Big 12 era and the most since the 1976-77 totaled eight straight.
Sophomore Jamar Samuels led four players in double figures with a game-high 14 points, while junior Curtis Kelly grabbed his fourth double-double with 10 points and 10 rebounds.

Good luck tonight folks....
it’s been a fun few days looking ahead to this one. A lot of anticipation and buzz surrounding the game for fans on both sides I think. Should be a good one. Enjoy!

Well, we took the first punch
Aside from the foul situation, the crowd is a bit quieter.
We’re not going to win if Jake and Denis stay cold from 3, bu t they usually shoot better in the 2nd half anyway.
What we do have is a HUGE chance to get a bunch of free throws if we keep driving to the hoop. That’s enormous. Teams just don’t get in the bonus this early in Allen.

Let’s get some energy in this game, Cats… Bring in McGruber
More specifically, we need more shooters
OSU and Cornell bothered KU with 4 guards. Made the bigs pull out and spread the floor.
I just don't get it. It's perplexing how much KU gets in our head.
I don’t get it. We have teams better than Missouri, Nebraska, Iowa State, etc., but KU seems to just have our number. Very frustrating.

Who pulled who down what?

If this is the time you’re talking about (8:51 left in 1st half), they were both locking arms, but when Jamar gets beat on the rebound, he keeps a death-grip on Markieff’s arm and pulls him down, then turns (still holding the arm) and barrels him down to the ground. Jamar wasn’t even going for the ball; he could have let go of Mk’s arm and been free.
I see...

I am having a hard time with what will be the final score
We couldn’t score in the second half but yet I really don’t feel like we got blown out. can’t wait to see them in the Big 12 tourney…

It was most certainly closer than the final score will indicate

Well, if the two teams play again...
KSU will be due for a win – when it really counts. Yes, it was an important game tonight, but was KU really going to lose 3 in a row to make KSU conference chamption? Unlikely.

The score doesn't matter. Take this as fuel for the games that matter -
and never lose to KU again in my children’s lifetimes.
LOL...awesome move, Frank

I work at a school
and I am dreading hearing the KU fight song on the school announcements in the morning. Maybe I should call in sick.
They'll have to get in line behind Aldrich
Did you see how he was all over Collins, hugging and rubbing on him??? Gayhawk man-love at it’s finest…
Only the winningest player in our history
Grow up. Or cry more. Good game Cats. We’ll meet a third and hell, even a forth time
Fuck off

Can't wait to hear what ESPN has to say about this "blowout"

Well, kids, I'm gonna watch the episode of LOST I DVR'd last night. See you on Saturday.

Anyone got a shovel?
That I can use to dig myself out from the Everest of BS I’m going to receive from my d-bag coworkers tomorrow?

I am so glad I don't work with any die-hard KU fans.

That is one REALLY nice part of working on the KSU campus
KU fans are few and far between. They know when to keep their mouths shut when outnumbered 100-1.
Henry only if he has a good postseason, I think.
In any case, they’re still going to be good, but probably not national title good.
I’ll be sad to see Denis go. I love Lu and Chris, but they are like anchors offensively. Get Wally or Freddy or Jordan in that five spot and move Rodney up a spot or two in the rotation. I like our chances better next year, as long as Nick and Martavious grow as ball-handlers.

Anyone sticking around for the aTm-oSu game?
If not, I can’t blame you. Cowboys are laying an egg in the second half.
Will not be sad to see Aldrich go
Cole Aldrich is a very good player, give credit where credit is due.But the Cats stand a much better chance against the Morris twins. Why is it some players get all the calls? Aldrich is one of those guys. There must have been 3-4 times when he got foul calls and the defender was standing straight with arms straight up. Then on the other end he makes a block but bodies the guy five ways to Sunday and no call. Don’t get me wrong, it was not the diffence in the game. Just had to vent, as it is maddening to watch. At least they call fouls on the Morris twins.
It's his hugeness
when he backs us down and our guys defend really well, we move around like crazy, therefore it looks like we foul and is way easier to call. Whereas when we’re in there against aldrich and he gives us a body, he’s like an effin boulder. Don’t get me wrong, he fouls an insane amount, but it’s his frame that helps him out.
Just Wabash already!

INTERESTING
Lunardi moved us up to his #1 seed line after we lost and duke lost. This was on sports center, but his bracketology on espn shows us still at 2. So this could be wrong.
Just Wabash already!
Good game 'cats
Sucks to lose I know, but it sucks even more that the nation couldn’t see Pullen and Clemete play the way they did against this KU squad at AFH. Look forward to seeing you again in a couple weeks. Beat the shit out of ISU.
Man crush. Sherron.
Thanks
Maybe we’ll see you next Saturday in Kansas City.

I'm sorry, I can't see the good game part
After the KU run that buried KSU after tying it at 45-45, it was no longer classified as a good game. Before that though, it was pretty good. I was expecting it to be good (maybe not as good as round 1) but not a blowout.
But thanks, and I totally agree with you the biggest shame is that the country couldn’t watch it. Damned fool TV schedulers.
