Trap game?

KenPom has clones -18

Colorado is almost dead last in TO%. This shouldn't be close from the start.

How the hellll did Colorado beat UConn

Thx Rulzzz!

Appears like a trap game but CU doesn't look good this year, so. We should try to dominate, play hard, work on things that need improvement, like TO's, etc.

Not exactly looking toward Houston, but what time does the Houston game start Sat.?

Hopefully, the team is working on limiting turnovers in this game so that carries forward to Houston.

UConn players were miserable leading up to the game, I can't blame them. I mean do you really want to be forced to go to a tropical island with Dan Hurley?

Maybe Dan Hurley isn’t the best coach in the game like he thinks he is

Time to run it up on some of these bad teams need to improve the analytic numbers.

Any conference game can bite you if you don't take it seriously. Kill the mosquito with the axe!

Key word is "shouldn't". Mid-week game, ridiculously cold night, last place opponent, third time we've played them, they're coming off a win, etc.... Has all the markings of upset city (think KState).

That said, I'll be shocked if TJ doesn't have our guys minds right. Hoping for 20 point win.

Thanks Rulzz!

Go Cyclones!

This guy's name has to be made up, right?

 

[Drew0311]

Wondering if Martin Rancik will be at the game tonight. Be pretty cool if they gave him a shout out and let him get some applause.

I mean, K-State has guys.

Colorado has boys.

Win tonight and Colorado victories will make up 15% of our season win total.

That does seem weird this late in the season. Conversely, if we lose, this one Colorado loss would account for 17% of our losses. Don't worry, we're not losing.

They didn’t look terrible against us in Maui. I guess I’m a bad judge of terrible.

Some on here have called NITish level teams 'terrible' like ISU, while very good, isn't vulnerable if they don't play well.

That said CU's been really bad but has got some things going recently.

Hopefully it's a mix between the Maui game and Boulder, like 10-15 point lead throughout that doesn't get weird.

This can be a weird time of year as formerly bad teams get traction.

I didn't think they looked terrible either and my wife thinks I'm an expert at terrible.
