Kaluma is the worst-officiated player in the league this year. It is easy to score when you don't have to dribble and can just push your defender straight backwards.
It's not losing that's the issue.
It's the total lack of game plan offensively, the jumping in the air with nowhere to go, the turnover machine, poor spacing, lack of offensive identity, poorly handled fast breaks, no movement, ball sticking.
It's not good guys. We just don't have any real scheme offensively or much skill. 60 points beats us right now.
Have to hope ncaa tourney teams can't handle pressure and we can guy out sone 55 to 52 type games.

I know it helped us in NET, but you kind of wish now we didn’t have our main guys playing 35 minutes in a 40 point game. We look gassed.
Not ideal, but at this point, I think rest is what's needed most. No need to overly panic.
Doesn't even take 3s really but that could make it ugly. We still have no go to offense really. That's not ideal.
He is forcing it to much...but I don't blame him. No one else is making anything happen.
We all know what’s going to happen, right? KU will handle Houston and this clunker will cost us a Big 12 title.
Really running out of time to get this offense going. Wasn't concerned too much about a win today as long as we could sniff 75pts.
This. I used to let ISU games ruin my weekend, now it's meh and move on. Not a single person on this board can control what happens in these games. It's sports, celebrate the hell out of the good times, go take a walk or work on something around the house during the bad times..it'll be alright.
Can we please stop excusing the refs for every loss? They sucked today AND we played terribly. If there was a day to say that we did not deserve to win, it is today.
However, that does not excuse inconsistent officiating. So, get off your soap box of officials don't affect games because they do. Just like the other two teams on the floor. It is inevitable and a fact.
But, we understand the guys played poorly today and just didn't play well enough to win all on their own.

I hadn't looked up the stats, but I can remember many times we played a full possession of defense just to give up a put back lay up
Curious about this question as well!
Every time I’ve expressed concern about the offense, I’m quickly reminded by experts here that I have no basis for actually being concerned and I should just be happy that we’ve won more games than projected in the preseason.
Flush this one. Great regular season. New season starts next week and I expect the team will be ready to go.
For all our size and strength in the front court, we give up an awful lot of ORBs.
