Great Stone with a clean block and now with 2. Good god. And Trimble got elbowed. Lovely. Hard enough to win this game. Now it's 8 on 5.

That call on the Stone block was one of the worst calls this entire tournament, and that's impressive considering the awful officiating so far.

KU played like shit, and are up 2. Not that Maryland played well either.
I've screamed it all year.....fucking feed Stone the ball. You got him for one year. Probably 20 more minutes. Use him.

Maryland outplays Kansas and is down 2 at the half. 4-5 bullshit calls by the refs; apparently Layman was supposed to let go of the rim and break his back.

I agree that KU is playing like shit. Hope they heat up a bit in the second half. Bill is famous for his halftime tirades and I think one is coming. Didn't realize that he and Turgeon were both assistants together under Larry Brown.

Told my friend to take KU hard -3 in the 2nd half. Maryland will get frustrated. Already starting.

I forgot if I've ever mentioned this, but I love Perry Ellis.

Now how will KU do when they play a team with a real offense. And is better than Maryland on defense. And against a coach who actually is a good game coach.

They can't play a complete game so if they're good in the first half, odds are they'll crap the bed in the second. Just too many flaws despite top five talent. Also, I hope Stone goes pro. Guy is garbage facing any type of defensive pressure.

This team advanced further, but I enjoyed last year's team so much more.

Nova is going to be a tough, tough out. No way they were the fourth-best 2 Seed. Then again, Graham and Mason played terrible tonight and the Hawks still won going away. If their shots are falling and Graham isn't making dumb turn-overs the game isn't this close in the first half.
Self still makes his bench shorter than it needs to be. Svi barely played at all, Bragg saw limited minutes and highly touted Freshman Cheik Dialo DNP - CD. With Mason hurting, Graham cramping and Greene out, they could have seen some more action out there, maybe.

As I said earlier, KU wins this thing without being touched on the scoreboard. Nova will be their toughest test and after that they win easily. KU played in the World University Games over the summer so they are battle tested. Call it what you will but they were able to grow as a team over the off season because they played in that. Unfair...sure, but it is what it is. We don't talk about stuff like that, better swept under the rug.

Oregon's a fantastic team and I'm happy to see them doing their part to salvage the Pac-12's reputation, but I'm going to be ticked if they make a Final Four before Arizona gets back there.

It was only a matter of time K's short bench bit them in the ass.
I didn't realize that Altman had never led a team to the Elite 8 before. I would have sworn one of his Creighton teams went that far.
Good luck, Ducks.
