Nova in a giant offensive slump to close out the half.

I am getting old, because now EVERY trip down the floor I am complaining about traveling on two teams I could care less about. Did the rule change to 3 steps instead of two? My god these officials are just letting everyone take three steps on layups, dunks and especially when they can't handle the ball after putting two hands on it.

Basketball doesn't have rules anymore. EXCEPT all the stupid **** brushed the head crap that causes 12 delays a game.

It’s early, but it appears the mid-majors and low-majors came to play this year.

Yesterday Tshiebwe had a nice steal took three steps, took two dribbles, picked the ball up over a guy's head (pretty cool) and then took 3 steps to dunk the ball. Announcer says it was an incredibly athletic play.

Maybe athletic, but not a legal basketball play twice. IF YOU CAN'T HANDLE A BASKETBALL, YOU SHOULDN'T GET TO GET AWAY WITH NOT BEING ABLE TO HANDLE A BASKETBALL! If you want to see how high somebody can jump, go watch a track and field event.

I know, its 2023 grandpa. Why not just let them run with the ball up and down the court, dribbling is just so 1990s.

Kansas gets bailed out by a ******** offensive foul. Figures. The Kansas player chest bumps his man, causes the contact and flops backwards and officials believe it. It is Kansas I guess. Officials have to get into season form somehow too.

OU and OSU might stink. Who knows if Kansas just didn’t show up tonight or what, but I think they’re going to a take a bit to fully gel.

Baylor is going to be real tough but they actually lack some size which is so weird to say. Also, Virginia looks really solid. They’ve reloaded their team from last year.

I certainly don't think the Big 12 is as good as last year. Might be some more wins than we think out there for the Clones
