After watching that game and many others of their's this year I would have to say KU's only glaring weakness is turnovers… Other than that they are nearly unbeatable...

Well that blows. By OSU winning, if we do get the 3 seed in KC, we'll have to play OSU (assuming they beat KSU). Which means we'll play them in back to back games within a week.

KU definitely didn't deserve to win this one

Anyone willing to trade Naadir Tharpe for a bag of chips and a six pack? He is going to be a death of this team in the Sweet Sixteen this year, I can just feel it coming. I have no problem watching a team lose to a team that simply plays better than them but it really sucks watching a team just shoot themselves in the foot over and over and over again. Pathetic.

Careful. That's close to the other hawks logic.

There are NO easy games in the Big 12 tournament short of TCU, and that isn't a gimme. I think we match up fine against OSU actually, and their win tonight makes the game next week a better win.

Hey! We can only panic over one loss at a time!

We ALWAYS get KU's best game, then they play like this at Ok St.

Cowboys get their signature win, and probably into the tournament
Wrong. Ku didn't play their best game at all in Hilton. They were extremely sloppy and committed 24 turnovers. We played even worse that night in different ways.

I think you would be hard pressed to find a team that committed more than the 24 turnovers KU committed @Hilton and still won the game. KU stunk in that game but forced ISU to stink just a little bit more than KU.

This is true, but Embiid was absolutely on fire that game. He hasn't been quite the same since.
