***2022-23 MBB General Thread***

Wisconsin looks bad against terrible Minnesota team. Why are Wisconsin and Ohio State ranked ahead of us?
It really makes no sense. Wisconsin lost to KU by 1 (still a loss) beat an OK Marquette team by 3, beat a good #13 Maryland team and won in IC in OT.

But...their NET ranking is 47. Not that great. They don't deserve to be top 15 at all. MAYBE in the 20-25 range but that might be generous.
 
Tech needs to play through that. One call at the end of the game doesn't make a difference. Tripping really is not a foul in that situation. They should have never been in that situation. Good teams don't need one call by an official to win.

Etc., etc., etc.

YET ANOTHER **** MISSED CALL!

Can officials see one ******* thing when it comes to Kansas?

Just amazing.

I'm sorry, when it happens every god damn week, it is a trend.

good point and they should play through it.
When is the last time KU has been screwed at the end of a big12 game? I can think of countless times they have benefited from a terrible call. maybe its just me..
 
the only thing that shocked me is the fact they didn't give KU an AND 1 at the end. Joke.
No problem, they realized they had made a mistake and gave Tech that foul. Everything is even, right?
 
Everyone needs to just know you have to be up ten to beat Kansas or the refs will get involved. It’s so ridiculous it’s everytime the game is close at the end. I would love to interview officials with all the proof and just ask them straight up what the deal is

I do agree that our ranking is very generous. We definitely missed Wahl in the second half, twisted ankle, hopefully he's good to go for the next game.

I agree that KU has been gifted the last 2 games (although they may have still won in regulation vs OSU), but there is part of me that likes it that other teams in our conference (especially those from Texas) get screwed once in awhile. Now they can understand what we have had to put up with for half a century. But, make no mistake, what happened to TTU was crap - Batcho should have been on the line with a chance to put his team ahead.
 
I saw that we are four point dogs tomorrow night. Makes sense. We rarely win there. And often it's not very close.
