Well, there's a lot of things that we've covered in our time here on
Inside the Paint show number four hundred and thirty eight by the way halfway through
season eleven, pretty wild number. But one thing that we I don't know
if we've really talked about is a complete and total beat down over the Oklahoma
State Cowboys and still Water. But that's why we're still doing these shows in
the high four thirties, guys, because we have not talked about Kansas,
Oklahoma State and still Water on Tell today. How's about that for a win
land in your back? How was your absence? It was nice. I
already don't even know. I do remember the reason I was gone. It
was a party to send a guy off. Yeah, it was good.
I'm glad to be back. And that party, that person that you were
celebrating sending off was of course to attag of Iloa and the Miami Dolphins who
came into Arrowhead and just you want to talk about because how about that?
Yeah, maybe the most dominant Chiefs defensive performance that I've seen, at least
in the playoffs, if not in the last like five plus years. Nick,
this is we're gonna talk about a particularly a dominant offensive performance by Kansas.
How's about that kind of just kind of going all around it? Are
you guys just not feeling it? All right? That's fine? This is
inside the pain on Rock Chuck Blog. I'm Ryan Landres, I am Crocodile
Dundee, and I am Mike Poyton's job. This is Mike Poynton's job,
and you know that he performs at his job anyway. He also, by
the way, trivia question in the future will be who is I'm sure somebody
will do it eventually, but for now, who is the closest coach to
having two victories over Bill self at Allen Field House? It's none other than
Mike Boyton, isn't it. That's also true, It is undeniable. That
is a fact. I feel like they almost lose to Oklahoma stayed at home
every year, that they don't almost lose to Oklahoma at home, and considering
that they smashed ok earlier this year at Alan, I feel like the Oklahoma's
state game here comes eighty seven eighty five. No, there's just no way,
not not unless that's not good. Not unless it's they get some new
players between now, in two weeks from now or whenever that game is because
God, Oklahoma State is total ass. Let's talk all about it, all
right. I was gonna give a breakdown for what else is coming for this
show, but you guys have listened to hundreds of these you guys need to
know the breakdown by now. We're gonna recap Kansas. We're gonna recap other
games. We're gonna laugh at something stupid that another one of the Big twelve
teams did. I'm probably gonna rasnick about not liking women with tattoos. Yes,
it's probably gonna be Texas. And then we're gonna end the show by
all three picking Kansas to win their next game. Right, that's every show.
That's the script. Yeah, pretty much. Let's let's let's get in
on it. Okay, speaking of Mary, before we dive into Kansas,
are they leading that awful WCC. Let's take a look who is leading the
WCC. H Yes, it is, saying oh Mary's they're in first place
at four and isn't even in second. They're in fourth. They probably will
be after tonight because they play Pepperdine tonight and you said Landon that they have
to win by twenty two otherwise it doesn't count as a victory, which is
no longer a lock. Saint Mary's went eight and six in non conference play,
and they are undefeated in WCC play. They lost the freaking Weber State.
They lost the Missouri State. They lost to Missouri State. Yeah,
this conference is finally actually at home. You've always said it is. They
lost the Missouri State at home. Missouri State, by the way, is
one and four on the road. Can you guess who the win was against?
A painful Okay, now gamee number three on the Patriot League. Well,
you know what, let's just start from the top. Bye, number
three. I'm your host, Ryan Landreth. This is my co host.
Iwan McGregor. Never mind, start again. I'm not pushing that button anymore.
No more air horns. I can't believe they stayed at number three,
Nick, can you believe that? Ap rating? Let's talk about it.
I think it's good. I think they did a good job. At least
they're eighteenth in the net. This is the my eighteen. Still, No,
we're like eleven. They are. I think they went up. Yeah,
I think they're not as I as b y U. Still, but
they are twelve. No, they're eleven. Who's gonna lose seven conference games,
all of them on the road. They are up to number four in
the Big Twelve. I think they're third in the Big twelve on Ken How
was I State? Yeah? I was three and Roger wins? Yeah yeah,
that's uh well, but they absolutely destroyed those nine Quad four teams.
They beat. Nobody else on this list has nine four wins except for your
Oh there's Oklahoma. It's all the Big twelve teams, but not even Gonzaga.
Does Gonzaga have nine Quad four wins? Gonzaga has six? Do they
really tie? On? Grand Foster is just kicking some serious ass against the
frigging Detroit Mercies of the world. Who, by the way, one,
congrats the Detroit Mercy basketball. They are one in eighteen. Now I believe
they're They're one in nineteen one in nineteen. Sorry I knew they won.
Before we talk about Kansas. Let's see if Missouri Valley are Mississippi Mississippi Valley
states eighteen. Darn it, they still can't win that. The mic pointing
of teams, the mike pointing of intros, and now let's talk about the
mic boys. They've been an impressive three sixty two and what a mess?
Who's below them? They are? They winless and not last. They've been
three sixty two in and then that the entire season. I know there is
three hundred and sixty two teams, so they're last. They've been last.
Okay, okay, are they the swack? Yeah? HBCU Yeah, yeah,
Chris what I thought we were gonna get Chris Reynolds on the phone.
Uh and he was gonna talk about how how they may be. They may
be, uh the worst team by record, but that doesn't automatically make them
the worst team. No, we don't need that. Okay anyway, No,
Hey, Valley State is two and fifteen. I think what? No,
they won, Yeah, they won, they've won two games. It
says, what the heck? That's that's? How can that be? Poat?
Oh wait? Why did it throw me to the women's standing? That
doesn't make any sense. The women are bad women. They are combined two
and what would that be? Thirty thirty three? Yeah, thirty three?
Hey? They did women try loss to Alabama ninety one to twenty six,
and they lost to South Carolina one hundred and one to nineteen. Oh no,
they tried mercy loss they're Owen nineteen. Detroit Mercy was up like fourteen
on Robert Morris with five minutes left yesterday and they lost in double the National
Championship at halftime. They should just have Mississippi Valley State played Detroit Mercy.
Louisville takes winner Louisville coll In the other semifinal. Yeah, so Detroit Mercy
though on Sunday if landon. In case you wanted to note, no,
being Owen nineteen does not automatically put you last, because there is a six
wins Southeast Missouri State team that is one spot below Owen nineteen Detroit Mercy on
ken Bomb, I don't they've won six games. Yeah, I don't think
that Simos won not According to to ken Palm, there's six and twelve on
kim bomb, so maybe the net doesn't count. They're non D one winsors.
I don't know. Well, okay, they've won a game against Missouri
Baptist Harris Stowe. That's it, Nicks, These aren't These AREN'TD one team
schools. Yeah, Lindsey Wilson, they the random woman. Yeah, and
they're still according to ken Palm, they're not. They're in between Detroit Mercy
and Mississippi Valley States, Lindsey Wilson basketball as Lindsey Wilson. They're playing men's
team. You know, you're a small school and you have a JV men's
team. Columbia Kentucky are somehow worse than the V team. I guess,
boy, what a great intro. Yeah, is three million dollars, so
that means about forty JOCO has more money than the entire endowment of the school.
I feel like we got to talk about Kansas at some point, but
this is pretty good. Let's let's do it. Here we go waiting for
someone to cut me off. Okay, never the Kansas niney Okloma State sixty
six. There, we got that in there. I guess now we have
to talk about the team that is. They're not ranked last on Kempom,
but there they got to be in the mid three hundreds if we're talking about
only they played Lindsay Wilson. Yeah, then, or that Houston's online one
ready to schedule just for fun they did. They played Shamanad and people said
it sucked. That game was not great. To be fair, they played
Washburn a couple of years ago, and I don't remember one flipping thing about
that game because it shouldn't have count. Okay, Washburn, I'll defend my
alma Mondard, but Washburn's a little bit more of a D two school in
my double as better than Lindsay Wilson. I can tell you that. Yeah,
Washburn has won national titles in D two. We have seen exhibition games
where they've kept it within fifteen twenty points of Kansas, like they are not
whatever at Oak Hill Christian College that lost by one hundred to North Dakota State,
that's not the same thing, I agree, But they're probably closer to
Oklahoma State than Kansas because the Jayhawks just go out and pummel the Cowboys from
beginning to end. On Tuesday night, they did not trail. They jumped
to a six to zero lead, force the timeout, and it was just
smooth from there. A dominant first half allowed them to coast in the second,
which earned a twenty four point win that the fans never had to sweat.
This is you Guys's seventh year on the show that seven Stillwater Recaps.
They've won five of them, and none of them have come that easily.
Had to have been kind of weird to watch a game at galibar Ibo that
A the camera wasn't on the moon, B wasn't pitch black on the court,
and C was a comfortable Kansas win. Yeah, it was fun to
actually be able to relax watching a game in galagher Ebo, which, yeah,
like you said, we don't normally get the privilege of doing because Oklahoma
State plays the Jayhawks very tough down there. NICKI which, Nick, you
all right? That was as bad as the rest of the shows be.
Yeah. I was gonna say I thought you were done because you paused,
and no, if you I was gonna ask Nick because he is our resident
court and venue expert. No team in this league has changed their building,
like their look more than Oklahoma State. I feel like we've gone from the
script font changes every couple of years and now it's white on the baseline set
of black. I feel like they've made some upgrades. You guys agree,
it looks much better than it used to. Yeah, that's a cool that's
a relatively cool arena too. It's sad that they are TERRESI they're terrible all
the time, so they never have it full. But uh, yeah,
there's been some good courts terms and Bill has gone in there in the past
twenty years. Oh yeah, he used to gift his alma mater a win
every year. People legitimately thought that was a conspiracy. How Bill self like
would throw them in a couple of victories every now and then. When how
many tournament So Mike Boyton has made the tournament once and it was in twenty
twenty one where they had Kate cunning the country. Yeah, and that was
also a like that team was at one point the favorite in the region to
make the final four and they didn't. Uh So They've only made the tournament
once since two thy seventeen, and that just like that's for a team that's
got some history. They won a couple of championships and their way back in
the forth the best basketball team Kid Cunningham has been on since high school.
Yeah, honestly because woof hey, at least they won their third game the
other day. Oklahoma State has won one conference title since nineteen ninety one.
That seems bizarre for a team that has so much history down there. Boyton,
somehow only in his fifth year, feels like he's been there longer.
But I can't imagine that he's gonna get much more time after only one that's
not right, Wikipedia is wrong one too. This is his seventh season.
What are they doing now that Mike Pointon is so irrelevant that nobody has touched
his Wikipedia page in two years? When when what Kate Cunningham was there?
I guess last time someone went there. Okay, talk about by banning them
from the postseason, that's I'll just say that they were gonna make it anyways.
But they still did us a favor. And then it feels like like
they're always the like second team out like they did just barely miss because they
never beat the good teams. And well, I mean, you gotta beat
Bill. I guess if you don't beat him once, you probably aren't getting
in. But Bill still put on these bills to us. How's about this,
guys, For the first time in his career, the arc is complete.
I've been waiting on many many a year to read this stout on this
show. Bill self has a winning record at gallipur Iba Arena. He is
now nine to eight and seventeen career trips there. It took him seventeen years
to get over five hundred against the team, with one conference title in thirty
five years. Still Water used to be a house of horrors for Kansas.
You guys know that as well as anybody. But they've won five of their
last six there, and they've won eleven of the last twelve in the series
dating back to you guys' first season on this podcast in twenty eighteen, when
you guys were about eight years old. They've won eleven out of twelve.
That's that this is not a team that their worry about anymore. Yeah,
they've definitely played a lot better. I don't know what goes into that.
I think other honestly than just regression to the positive mean of Oklahoma State,
like we've been talking about, has not had like a ton of world beating
teams, but yet they've still beaten Kansas a bunch, and I think that's
just evening out it kind of like there's that, and then they also have
gotten worse, like from O nine to fifteen, where Kansas lost several times
in that stretch. OH nine to fifteen is a seven year run where Oklahoma
State only missed the tournament twice. They made it five out of seven years.
They've only made it twice in the ten years since, So Oklahoma State
has gotten worse ironically, everybody wanted Travis Ford's We're in thrown out of town
and he made the tournament seventy five eighty percent of the time, And now
they would kill for something like that. Even though Travis Ford, who I
forgot, exists, I can't even think of where he coaches. I think
he's at I think he might be at Liberty. He's wherever Frank Haith used
to be. He got in trouble for like doing the shakas smart and playing
defense on the court and like trying to fake out a three point shooter,
and he got fined by his conference. That's the first time I had heard
Travis Ford's name in a long time. Saint Louis is where he's currently coaching.
Weird show, What a weirdness off with another weird element of the show
the player we're leading off with from down under and has not usually been the
leadoff player. You know, yeah, drop the Ozzie himself. Johnny Furfey,
who was the best player in the game in the first half, scored
fifteen points all in the first half on five for six from the floor,
including three for four from three. He also added seven boards in thirty three
minutes The Jayhawks made just five threes in the night, but three of them
are by Furfee. Just how much has the upk you see by playing like
a has in the past few days. I certainly think that if he gets
the if he continues this play, kau has five legitimate stars in their starting
lineup, So Kansas. I saw a stat that said this was the most
amount of field goals that Kansas has made a game that did not go to
overtime in a dozen years. I saw it on Twitter. I can't remember
who I saw that from great stat They scored thirty six. They made thirty
six shots. Johnny Furfey only made five of them, but his presence was
a huge reason why they made that many shots because he commanded so much defensive
attention. Hunter Dickinson and kJ Adams have to just be loving life now that
they have to actually draw attention to a shooter out there. Because Hunter got
one on one matchups all night. He finished with twenty one points, could
have had thirty had he made an average amount of his hook shots. And
kJ was eight for ten. So these guys just feasted with Furfey landon.
It has to make you happy. We've been wanting to see somebody come out
of that number two spot. Furfey also is really tall for a guy who's
officially the number two guy on this roster. It just ups their ceiling infinitely
with him running or with him out there. Yeah, it definitely does.
I mean, that's what we were really hoping would happen with inserting him into
the starting lineup. And that's what Kansas really needed at that two spot,
which is someone who could at least be an actual threat of some kind scoring
the basketball, and if it could be a shooter that could knock down threes,
that'd be even better. And they certainly got that in Johnny Furfey,
at least in this game. Now, of course, Oklahoma State is not
a great team, but it's not like how Marco Jackson tore it up,
or like Dick Timberlake, despite an incredible dunk, was not spectacular otherwise either.
So yeah, I Meanfey, if he can actually give you like eight
to twelve a game from here on out, which maybe that's asking too much,
I don't know, but if he can actually give you something a couple
threes, a couple hustle plays a board here there, that is huge Obviously,
that leaves the question of does that leave the bench with essentially zero scoring?
And I think the answer is probably yes. It always is. Why
would this here be different? But they need someone that can actually just shoot
the ball and can be a fifth guy to at least be kind of dangerous
scoring more than the bench as a whole. If they can just get that
fifth guy. Uh, the ceiling is the roof for this kind of team.
Need we need an Australia drop. I just looked up Australia. Let's
see. This one's called family Feud Australia. Okay, well that just this
one's Australian. That but it was he officially Australian. Yeah, okay,
here's Australia. This one's called Australian Hallelujah. That's a good one for furfy.
This one is called I'm in Australia. I'm not sure if you are
aware, but I'm in Australia. That one might work. And this last
one is just called Australian Babes to give me okay, is very much not
a safer work one. This one. Hopefully, this one's better. It's
it's called as Oh thank you. That's that's the one right there. That's
the ferfee. Yes, thank you, that's what It's better than the if
you'd like it all this number yikes? Okay, Nick, get us out
of this by talking about how uh this is. This is the weirdest show
we've ever it is. Yeah the way through it? Yeah, get worse
not a weird will do mix weird ranked teams of loosense the last show again,
that'll bring us back to sanity. A not so weird game for Hunter
Dickinson. He was back on par with where he's been. Twenty one points,
nine to fourteen from the floor, seven rebounds, two blocks, and
thirty minutes. It wasn't his best rebounding game, but he hit a hook
shot after hook shot and mixed in a couple of taunts to the depleted crowd
for a quality performance. Depleted is one way to put that crowd. Yeah,
uninterested half blue crowd. Uh did you guys see what Hunter Dickinson did
after making the very first basket of the game. Oh, I feel like
I did. I can't remember what it was though they I think that the
fans wanted a walk call it in quality splashed in the hook shot and what
does he do, He raises his Goliath arms and tries to pump up the
Yeah, as Nick said, it kind of depleted crowd. He's just flat
out trying to tick him off. I think it's great. I like,
and I want to also point out my takeaway with Hunter. Yeah, he
played great. He scored a lot of points. He does that every night.
Uh, it takes a lot of thick skin to just flat out not
care I am. I don't think I could do it. I think if
there were thousands of people around that court yelling mean things at me, I
don't know if I could just bounce right off it and say, hey,
get louder like. I just think that's funny. I think that that's why
Bill self will never call Hunter Dickenson soft, because there's nothing soft about him.
No. Yeah, there's also I think what has, for whatever reason,
there's been an equation between being not a great defender and being soft,
right, Yeah, probably because like Brandon Green exists or whatever, Gerald Vic
Yeah, uh but yeah, Hunter Dickinson, well, yeah, is not
a very good defender, is nowhere near soft. He has nothing in common
with those other guys that Bill self would deem soft. No, dude got
elbowed in the face and thirty seconds later made the game tying free throws.
Like if I got elbowed in the face, here come the oh oh no,
I got the TCU police at my door saying that really didn't get a
He really didn't get hit that hard. And according to Hunter Dickinson's forearm,
he is very not soft. Yeah, as we get evidence O. Yeah,
and Kevin McCuller said that too. So here's a factoid about Gallagher IBA.
Because I did my homework, this ties or this is easily their most
comfortable win there under self. The previous best had been by fifteen. They
go out there win by twenty four. It ties the most raw points ninety
that they've ever scored, and they've been playing there a long time. It
is also the biggest road win for Kansas on the road, biggest road win
in the Big twelve for Kansas by more than three years. Yeah. I
know that doesn't seem right, does it. The last time they won a
road league game by this many points was January fifth, twenty twenty one,
when they beat TCU by twenty nine, just the second time that they have
won a road conference game by at least twenty four points since twenty sixteen.
It doesn't happen very often in this conference. Yeah, that's a that is
kind of funny, and I feel like it's your I'll pass the ball to
user. I'll be to one and I'll throw it to kJ. Hey,
how about you talk about kJ. That's fahy. Look at that, I
will kJ Adams. He was fantastic yet again and maybe a little under the
raidar, although it's getting harder and harder to ignore because the guy is a
monster. At sixteen points on eight of ten from the floor. As u
Joka like numbers, also had five assists, four rebounds, and thirty four
minutes. kJ is now averaging thirteen five and three and shooting sixty two percent
from the floor to Dulus, Yeah, we thought he took a huge step
last year, but this is maybe it's not as like statistically noticeable a step
obviously because he did put up decent numbers last year, but like he's playing
at an unreal level basketball right now. Bill self said he was the most
improved player in the country last year on Hawk Talk, and then in the
same paragraph he said, and he's also the most improved player in the country
this year. He might be right. I really think he is. I
think he's probably sticking around one more year. I don't think he's going pro
just yet. But it's it's he could legitimately be a guy that takes that
next like the next junior that takes the big leap, and he would it
surprise me if he found a way to average seventeen to night next year.
To that end, he did knock down two mid range jumpers. He did
straight up in this dude, and if dude just yeah, better actually become
a part of his game. He's going to be a psycho. Yeah he
is. He is ridiculous. He's he's the best athlete on this team on
a team that has no shortage of them. One of the most athletic players
I've ever seen play at Kansas, Like he's Wiggs athletic. Yeah, he's.
And he's not fat like Zion As, which helps. So this was
a question we were debating earlier and it's completely pointless, but what it feels
like a good show to throw it in on. Would you trade Hunter Dickinson
right now for senior Udoka nickit thing? No, No, I don't think
so, said no. I think it's I think it's I mean, also,
Ka is great, but this team specifically needs What would Udoka do that
you don't get from Dickinson. Dickens already averaging almost twenty points exactly. Yep,
Yeah, Udoka was more foul prone. Udoka made more shots. I
don't think that I've ever seen a better player within three feet of the goal
than Udoka as a bouquet on either end. But as Landon said, they
need a guy that can get his own shot more Dope couldn't get his own
shot. Also, Hunter Dickinson a darn good free throw shooter, whereas we
obviously know Doake wasn't. Like if I had if you're telling me right now,
you have to give up Hunter and you can have any center in the
last ten years on Kansas, I would take Udoka. He's not a bad
consolation prize, But no, I think that. My point is, I
think Hunter Dickinson is the best center that has played at Kansas under Bill self.
On the offensive end, he is, yeah, which is I think
seventy five percent of basketball. Arguably, you could make that argument. It's
what wins you more games, I think than defense. Something you cannot make
the argument for is that Kansas is doing a better job turning the ball over
because they are. They only had eleven in this game, and that sounds
a little high, but whenever you consider the fact that they play faster than
they typically do. They scored thirty six baskets. They scored ninety points.
Eleven turnovers is just fine. If you're making three plus shots for every one
turnover, you're gonna win a lot of basketball games. And they were playing
very, very sped up and they were particularly lethal in transition. So two
games in a row that they've been more careful with the ball and what have
they won those two games by almost forty points. Not a coincidence, not
at all. Also not a coincidence. Is Kevin mccullor being very good Nick
telling me about him. Yeah, Kevin mccullor had eighteen points in this game.
Another he's been so consistent this year. Eight assists, six rebounds,
and thirty five minutes. He was on a triple double watch for a while.
But before Kansas really took their foot off the gass of late seven for
fourteen from the floor and is now shooting thirty six percent from three, right
where we thought he would write Lennon. Yeah, honestly about I think we
had him lower a little lower than that in the preseason conversations. But yeah,
we did think he would take at least a step forward from three.
He's taken quite a large step forward from three. But I did not see
the passing numbers coming. The eight assists and he's averaging what is he averaging
assists wise the season, it's like four and a half, a little over
four and a half at this point. Yeah, he's got eighty of them
in seventeen games, so it's better than four. Yeah, he's been He
has been amazing. He has taken the senior leap, and I still think
there's a real argument he made he is the best player on this team.
I think he is the best player on this team. I think I think
Hunter Dickinson's the most important. I think Kevin mccullor is the best basketball player
on this team. Yeah, I agree, And he's he's definitely the most
consistent whenever you look at I'm just looking at his game log, so like
seventy five percent of his games have been between seventeen and twenty four points.
There's a couple outliers on either end his worst scoring game was a game where
he had a triple double against Kentucky twelve, ten and ten. And like
the guy is sheer consistency. He has made free throws in every game.
He's made at least three shots in every game. The three point shooting has
been improved. Just the range of options for Kevin McCuller is so like it's
his floor is so high, is what I'm trying to say, all of
it. And he's basically become a backup point guard. Yeah, yeah,
he's the backup point guard. He's Kansas is second best player at post ups.
Uh, he's It's what what any andy? I think he's their best
defender too. I know to one gets a lot of credit. I think
they're they're tied for first. I don't know how the most versatile defender yep.
Because of his size, he can guard anyone on the floor. He's
their best three point shooter. He's their best free throw shooter. I think
he's their best at the line. Yep. I think he's the best at
finishing through contact. I I think he's most fearless yep. Yeah, yep,
most experienced, most clutch, definitely their most clutch. Where do you
think he ranks among just like General Bill soelth era players. I mean,
I know we're only you know, a little over halfway through the season,
so a lot could change that. Yeah, oh yeah, I think I
think if he I think if he does wind up being a first team All
American, which he's on pace to do, I think he's probably top six
or seven at least. Right how many First Team All Americans as self had
Kansas? I don't know that because because there are players like Andrew Wiggins and
Ben maclamore that weren't first Team All Americans, Like I don't know. Okay,
So here here are all the All Americans under Bill self, Wayne Simeon,
Thomas Robinson, Frank Mason, DeVante Graham, o Chaia Baji, Jalen
Wilson, and oh and I didn't say Sean Collins. Sean Collins, he's
had seven First Team All Americans. Kevin McCuller would be the eighth. And
where it's different. All of those guys I believe were four year players,
except for Robinson, who was a junior. So all of those guys played
their whole careers at Kansas. Mccullar obviously didn't, so I don't know how
are supposed to rank that. But looking at Kevin mcculler's stats right now,
which is what, what's the average he's averaging? What pull it up?
Twenty points, seven rebounds, five assists, forty eight percent from the floor,
thirty six percent from three to eighty five percent of the line. Geez,
that's one of the five best seasons in the self era. Yeah it
is. That's that's Frank mason esque against all competition, hitting all sorts of
clutch shots. Yeah. That that Yeah, Frank mason esque, I think
is the answer. Like I think this season maybe it's a little bit of
recentcy bias. I think Kevin mccoler season this year is better than Jalen Wilson's
last year. Uh, that's interesting. Jalen Wilson was a more explosive scorer.
Yeah, I think it's better than senior year too. Cooler is a
better all around player, that's why. Yeah, I think I think he's
well and Wilson had a bunch of rebe I don't know. I think it's
better than Oach's senior year. I think it's right there with but also kind
of this was the time of year where Oachi was maybe having the season ever
under herself, and it cooled off in the second half. We got along
way to go. The back half of o Chi season got weird because it
did get weird. Yeah, having a very different season. But also McCuller
with his rebounding and assists numbers like and is defending like he he's a player
with a much higher floor. Uh. Because even if he doesn't score like
you're saying, his lowest scoring output was a triple double, So it's not
exactly like he can't do other things. He can do a lot. He
can do everything. Also, Kevin mccullar is an answer for why people should
get extensions in college people should play longer, why it makes the game better.
Zach Eddie, Hunter Dickinson, and Kevin mccullor very possibly might be Kansas's
are the best three players in the in college basketball. They're all seniors.
Some of them are super seniors. If any people stand back, Zachie should
have been gone a year ago, but it makes the college game better.
Zach Edy may not have been a first round draft pick last year, and
he was mocked in the lottery in the draft that I saw that earlier today,
Like that's that's why the game's better if guys stay longer. Because Kevin
color as a fifthier senior, is one of the most entertaining players in the
country. It makes the product better and the NBA is better because of it
too, because they're getting better players when they enter the draft. I don't
understand how that's not a win win for everybody, but I know I'm not
gonna try to get all argue with a dangerous game to pick on this show
is let's talk about the college eligibility rules, because you know how that's gonna
go. All right, let's start moving through the rest of these notes kind
of quickly. One more mccullor tidbit. Among players in Power leagues, mccullor
is eighth in scoring, Hunter Dickinson is eleventh, and Dickinson is the best
rebounder among all Power league players, narrowly leading out Zach Eady by about half
a rebound per game. So yeah, they're two of the best five players
in the country. No reason Kansas shouldn't make a Final four with two of
the best five players on it. Let's move on here. Dwan Harris eleven
points, three year bounds, three steals in thirty one minutes. He was
four of six from the floor. The only takeaway really here, I think
is that he made most of his layups. Yeah, yeah, he was
fine. It's good to see eleven points. You'll take eleven from Dewan Harris
every night. Last game, I think he had like six points, but
he had eight assists. That's fine. If he wants to only have three
assists and he instead scores eleven points, that's fine. He's the fourth best
scorer at best on this team. So if he's gonna give you double figures,
you know what Kansas's win loss record is. Whenever he does that,
I'll take it every night. Hey, Nick, read the next paragraph for
us. Oh that's funny. Bill self applauded Nick Timberlake's performance on the last
game. He already made himself, so give you a Biden. It seems
like of what Nick did, Nick changed Timberlake to Whippert. And it says
Bill self applauded Nick Whippert's performance on the last inside the Pain and it wasn't
just because of his ridiculous takes. So Nick changed some words around, hoping
you get landed and I and now he's got to read it himself, and
well, it was straight into the litter box. It wasn't just because of
the thinka is dunk that that dunk was though, I didn't know that guy
could do anything. Timberlake and two rebounds in nine minutes, but he added
a couple of steals and seemed to impressiself with his defense. Yeah, Lamban,
you said you weren't particularly impressed with timber like I wasn't either, but
self knows more than neither of us. And he said that he thought Nick
played really good, so I'll take his Loway. I guess I think Nick
Timberlake, to be fair, in the last couple of games, has started
to level out his play a little bit. He's become less of a liability
like actively bad. Yeah, I think he started to become competent in other
areas more so, it's just because he didn't do too much of anything other
than that dunk. Uh, scoring wise, But no, I think he
actually genuinely did play okay though, Like he wasn't really bad, and that
would be honestly, that'd be great if he can give you like four points
a night and play okay defense and not screw up. Sure, why not?
I mean, he made two shots in each of their first two conference
games, didn't do anything against Oklahoma, but then against Oklahoma State had the
big dunk. Like He's made impact plays in three of their four conference games,
and I think that's you're not getting a lot from the bench. I
don't think we can complain when more often than not they got a guy giving
them multiple impact plays a game off the bench. And we know the ceiling
is high on Timberlake. We know this is a guy that could go out
there and make four threes in a game at any given moment. So I
think got I think you gotta take what you can get at this point from
him, But certainly would not have expected him to be one for three shooting
threes through four conference games at the beginning of the year. That's that's pretty
wild. Somebody who's made plenty of threes. Bryce Thompson, he doesn't get
the music because he's not a white guy. But he did make three more
threes. He's now made eleven in his last three games at Kansas. His
career high was against Kansas at Allen Field House, and he was flirting with
it in this game but ultimately came up just a couple points, Shy.
The biggest surprise of the night was that Connor Dow went oh for three.
Oklahoma State has had a Connor Dow on their roster in every season in the
self era. And how many threes is he gonna make in the next few
years? Based on everything we've ever seen, He's gonna make at least like
six. And you know a guy who won't make at least six, Yeah,
who's not gonna maybe not in the rest of his basketball career. Olmargo
Jackson did have one nice assist and that was about it. He only scored
two points. He turned the ball over twice. Felt like he turned the
ball over eight times thirteen minutes. Jam yep Parker Brown made two free throws.
He fouled four times though in ten minutes, and Mike Djankovic outscored them
all. At what point do you consider putting Mike Jenkovic in before uh at
Marco Jackson, I'm telling you, like, Okay, that's Mike. Mike
Jankovic should play a little dude. He even talk about looking for a guy.
He makes it three, he gets another few. Okay, I'm not
I'm just I'm just not gonna even argue that we'll be here forever. He
would get torched on defense. I'm not here to say that, but yeah,
al Marco Jackson has not had the freshman season we wanted him to,
but he is in no way, in no way worse than Mike Jacovic.
I agree, I agree, I'm not. I'm not at that point yet.
We were arguing if Caitlyn Clark would be more productive than Nick then than
al Marco Jackson yesterday, and I now realize how stupid of an argument that
was on my behalf. And Caitlyn Clark would do horrible things to Mike Jankovic
in a one on one game, and uh, and Caitlin Clark would not
hold a candle to al Marco Jackson. But al Marco Jackson has still been
pretty rough. It's like, is he feels like he is descending, like
he's going the wrong direction on offense, because he started out the season seeming
like even he wasn't a jugger, not buy any stretch, but he was
like doing competent things, it felt like on offense, and now it's just
like it's kind of a tire fire. I don't know, man. Mike
Jankovic is listed at six' four, like, he's four inches taller than
Caitlyn Clark. He would probably beat her one on one. That yeah,
he would destroy her one on one. And it's not an indictment on Kaitlyn
Clark. It's an indictment on a human biology. I don't know if he
would beat her in horse, but he would beat her one on one.
Yeah, if we're playing horse, Kaitlyn Clark could probably take most people in
the world. But yeah, and I want a game of basketball. Yeah,
when close. I wonder what a game of horse between the Tyan Grant
Foster that played at Kansas and Kitlyn Clark would look like Caitlyn Clark wins in
five shots. If you're wondering where these questions come from, we text back
and fourth hypotheticals every like week, it seems. Yesterday was like, is
right, can twenty Ryan Landers be one Lebron James? And and I said
that Lebron would accidentally murder at least five of the Ryans and then for Lebron.
So, there is a computer game called Universe Sandbox and I play with
it all the time, and it's basically just a complete sandbox mode where you
get every item in the universe and you can do whatever you want with it.
And I like to set up like I want to find out. I'll
put a target at the end of a line and Jupiter at the start,
and I like to see how many earths you have to line up to deflect
the Jupiter from hitting the target. That would be the strategy we'd have to
deploy with Lebron, James and me. You'd have to line like twenty of
me up like Domino's to maybe get a charge called. And it wouldn't work
still because I would make twenty of me would score some on Lebron one Lebron,
but Lebron is scoring every shot. I am not scoring every shot with
twenty of me, so I would lose and get hurt. Yeah, that
would be really, really wild. I think if Lebron was guarding you one
v. Twenty he would demand you make threes, like he would let you
have nothing at the basket, which you would probably hit a couple of at
a certain point if you're oh yeah, he would just stand at the basket
and make me take every shot at least six or seven feet away, and
I would not make one hundred percent of those, and he would make every
shot he took. Probably, Yeah, I'm not beating Lebron. I'm not
being Lebron fifty on one, by the way, because I'm he's he's not
missing. Yeah, but eventually he has, like I guess, I guess
he has to bounce the ball at some point and there's fifty people. Yeah,
exactly, that's so he can't travel, I guess. Any closing thoughts
on this game, which was a that was an interesting recap. I feel
like that we we kind of gave it the recap that deserved. Great win
for Kansas, uh really just a weird second half away from being the only
undefeated team in the Big Twelve right now, but they're still back in first
place, and and they needed to be because the first half of the schedule
is much easier than the second. Good win. Yeah, I'm really looking
forward to the game between Harris Stowe and Lindsey Wilson coming up, whenever that
might be. I think that's gonna be really fun. Jacks Wilson find out
in the next show. Marca Jackson, Yes, Almarco Jackson would look like
like Hakeem Elijah One against the Lindsey Wilson University. Yeah, I think he
would drop thirty at least Kansas good Johnny Furfey yay ozzy azzy yazzy oy oy
oi sixty two percent from the floor, thirty nine percent from three, seventy
two percent from the floor, and plus eight on the glass. And yes,
as Landon said, Oziosi yosi, that's the that's gonna be the new,
the new Johnny Furfrey drop. Hopefully we get more than one year of
it. Don't get good too fast? Big twelve games, Landon, you
said that we just did uh that Kansas recap with big twelve games energy.
All right, let's see if we can do big twelve games with big twelve
games energy. You know who definitely brought that energy was Kansas State, who
beats don't where is it right? Oh? Sorry, this is a new
soundboard. Kansas say sixty eight. Oh oh, okay, I get it,
hold on it, Hold on one fricking second. Don't you move a
muscle? So you want you want that one? Do you this one?
That's the one that came to mind? Okay? All right, well,
Kansas State sixty eight, number nine, Baylor sixty four and overtime, it
is easier to crack the nuclear codes than it is to beat Jerome Tang in
overtime down by two with a minute left in ot Case States argent and it
was it was Case State. It's Arthur Khalum. I believed that's not what
ESPN said. Oh well, maybe I'm wrong. Convert to the four point
play to put the Wildcats ahead four good. Tyler Perry and Cam Carter both
had eighteen points in the wind, like Ryan alluded to, drum Tang ten
and zero in overtime games. You want to talk about him as possible a
little better than we thought, Nick Nikolai, What is case Date? A
little better than we thought? I then you guys thought I thought they were
decent. I don't think they're that good, but they're decent enough to probably
win twelve games in this league. Here's my take. They are eleven win
team, and eleven win big twelve teams are hard to beat on the road.
Holy hell, you guys, here's my take. No, they're not.
They're not. Do you realize what kind of effort it took from Baylor
for them to barely get this done and how many times Baylor let this go
through their fingertips. No, I don't think Kansas State's very good. They
are pretty tough to beat at home. I think they'll win about seven league
games. I guess they've already have three and one. I know, I
don't think they're very good. This is a team that needed overtime to beat
North Alabama, like like thirty days ago. Like they've won twelve games and
they're five and zero and overtime. Baylor did not exactly do their part here.
They only shot thirty three percent from the floor, which is really bad.
They went five to twenty eight from three, which is worse. They
lied by six with three minutes left, and then again but again by five
with a minute twelve left in overtime, no less, and they couldn't close
either opportunity. So yeah, definitely a little bit of a gag job from
the Bears. I do think KASE State is maybe a little better than I
thought. I will believe it whenever they're able to. I saw all I
need to see about KSE State. We just have how they choked that game
in Lubbock away on Saturday. I think that Baylor was kind of fortunate to
be three. Now, this might just be part of what the Big twelve
is, but I do not think Kansas State is better than the following teams.
I think Baylor, Kansas, Texas Tech, TCU, Iowa State,
maybe Oklahoma, and definitely Houston and maybe BYU. I think kse State's like
the eighth best team in the Big Twelve. I don't think they're an eleven
win team. Interesting Cincinnati eighty one, number nineteen, TCU seventy seven.
Another overtime game, Nick, how about that you switched your pick at the
last minute and it was incorrect. Half a point for that because I switched
to be different. It's not gonna be like a landing every time he went
for most of the second half, but they scored just three points in the
final five minutes of regulation to let the Bearcats get it to overtime, and
Dan Skilding's junior made a game winning layup with twenty seconds left to get a
win for the Bearcats. Two and two with a point difference of plus four.
Ernest U Day had eleven points, nine rebounds of five steals. Hey
look at that statue for him. Cincinnati got twenty one points from Day Day
Thomas and it's nine night for the horn Frogs after their loss of Cincinnati.
Cincinnati's got a day day Thomas and a Gisel James. You want to talk
about a fun team? Excellent, and the Cincinnati is also I think a
little better we thought. So here's the thing. Yes, the four new
teams in the Big twelve are all better than we thought they'd be. BYU,
we didn't think would be in the top twenty, which that's kind of
farci but whatever, since he's better than we thought. Central Ford is definitely
better than we thought, and uh and and Houston is obviously well now they
wanted to might be exactly who we think they are though, yes I agree,
but that like they've brought fun home court advantages, they've been competitive on
the road, Like they really did go out and add four more teams that
are very big twelve each to and already stacked Big twelve. It's true,
never ends Number twenty BYU eighty seven, number twenty four, Iowa State seventy
two. I do not have a the Bears or who he thought they were
dropped, but I feel like that is an Iowa State thing at this point.
Iowa State is who we thought they were because Taman Lipsey hurt his shoulder
and left early. They are very good at home. The Hilton magic is
real, but boy do they struggle to win games because they really don't play
offense very well. That's what I think about Iowa State. But I think
they're better than k State. What say you, U equal? Maybe I
think Case State would be a little better. Okay, that's thee I would
bet. I will bet that Iowa State wins more conference games than Case State.
I think that's I think I'm sipping the tang all right, Well,
you're allowed to do that, but uh, in case they that I just
think that if they have even an average record in overtime games, and by
the way, that pendulum will swing back eventually. Yeah. As for the
Cougars future white Guy of the Game, Spencer Johnson, who's still there.
I feel like Blannon and I were doing a show like four years ago and
Spencer Johnson was making threes and a loss to Gonzaga. Probably. Yeah,
they went off for twenty eight points as BYU ran away and hit in the
second half. They're starting five May thirteen threes if you're counting down the days
BYU at Allen Fieldhouse, and I believe forty one of them. That's gonna
be awesome. How many games. Would BYU win the WCC by this year
if they were still in that league, Yeah, good point. They would
be running away with the WCC at this point because they're actually good. Would
West Virginia win the WCC yep, I think they'd lose to against Zaga.
I think that team loses to Gonzaga. Maybe probably. They probably mboun the
same number fifteen Oklahoma seventy seven, West Virginia sixty three. Land In the
Jayhawks next opponent are those Mountain Mamas. And I can't wait to watch that
game on CBS or ESPN. Those are the channels that's gonna be on,
right Ryan, Do I have like a oh, I do have that drop?
Oh God, that's that's guess where it's gone. At least the football
games on TV this weekend for real. The Sooners got their offense going in
the second half, led by sixteen points from Jalen More. Luke Northwather,
who looks like a Viking named north Weather would shockingly did not make any threes.
Nothing. Nothing really interesting to talk about about West Virginia. They are
bad. Ryan says that he can't believe they beat Texas. I can I
picked it. I wrote that before the games last night. Now I maybe,
Now, I definitely can. We'll get to that. That's gonna be
my game, and I'm glad the pendulum will land on me with im as
well. It's a matchman, Nick, you can talk about this blowout.
Number five Houston seventy seven, Number twenty five Texas Tech fifty four. The
Red Raider fans were quiet in my mentions this week. Yeah, the Cougar's
defense completely shut out the Red Raiders. Is every team in the Big Twelve
now has a loss. Houston got twenty nine points to tennis ins from Jamal
Shid. They also turned the ball over just six times while shooting fifty two
percent from the floor. Who's Houston the second best team in the Big Twelve?
I think they might be. They have a good defense. I still
think Baylor will win more Big Twelve games. I don't know if that means
they're better, but I think Baylor's more equipped to win to be competitive in
this league. Yeah, I got fair. I still think Houston's gonna have
to take this year before they are like actually good. Like they're going to
lose several games that they might not lose in the next few years because they're
gonna take a season to get acquainted with this schedule. That but man,
they played great in this game, Like there wasn't a weakness here. The
defense was great, the offense didn't turn it over. They shot a good
percentage their point guards. Stud there's a lot to like about Houston. Yeah,
they are good. It's just hard to tell exactly how good with their
metrics being so inflated with the Quad four stuff. And now we get to
this, because holy hell, UCF seventy seven, Texas seventy one. First,
let's take this away. UCF is better than we thought, and Kansas
fans should be thrilled to see this result because you seef's not going one in
seventeen with the only win being over the Jayhawks. They got twenty four points
from Jalen Sellers. That was an awesome performance. They won their first Big
twelve zero game ever. But Texas, Holy, holy moly, I do
not know how, as somebody who did not watch this game, I cannot
for the life we figure out how Texas lost it. Looking at the box
score, Texas shot fifty percent from the floor, They made ten threes,
They had eleven turnovers and thirteen fouls. They made almost three times as many
shots as they had turnovers and fouls, and they shot fifty percent from the
floor. How on earth did they lose this game? Do either of you
have a clue? I don't know the answer. Uh, because Texas Texas
does this. Yeah, and it really makes any sense anytime that it happens,
and the only common factor is that it is Texas. Texas led by
twelve at halftime two, it gets better, but then they proceeded to get
out absolutely railed, bent over whatever you want to say, in the final
twenty minutes, getting out scored by eighteen points and putting up just twenty seven
points in the second half at the what's the name of the arena? Oh?
The name of the arena? Sorry, I'm dropping the ball tonight.
I think the name of the arena is the Moody Center. That's right where
Kansas has never won. UCF won a game there before Kansas did. But
oh my goodness, that's not the top story. Because as if that losing
to the team picked a finish last in the big twelve at home wasn't embarrassing
enough, then Rodneys Harry in the handshake line as a couple of UCF players
are flashing the horns down sign at the student section that's been busting their balls
all night. Rodney Terry sprints through the handshake line and starts yelling about how
they shouldn't do that because that's classless. And then he doubled down on his
postgame presser by referring several times about to UCF's players, you know, players
he doesn't coach. He kept saying, we don't need to do that,
we don't need to be classless. Hey, dumbass, you don't coach the
team. Your Harry Potter glasses may think that that's your colors, but they're
not. What an absolute embarrassment, no kidding, But coach k was more
tolerable because he won. Rodney Terry took over a team that was the seventh
ranked team in the country whenever Cris Beard got fired for being a douchebag,
to say the least, and they ended the season number eight in the AP
pool. He didn't make him better. They stayed even. They threw a
five year contract at this dumbass to coach in one of the ten best athletic
departments in the country. What did they think was gonna happen. He is
in way over his head and yeah, go to the SEC next year,
buddy. I'm sure the student sections there are gonna bust your chaps about this
or anything. What an absolute loser move it is to lose and then call
the other team classless. As you said, Lamdon Coach K did it.
Coach K showed that somebody first, Rodney Terry might be doing it better.
Yeah, just in absolutely embarrassing. But an actual question for me to you
guys who like college sports, no sass, a genuine question. Why is
it not classless for Texas players to flash horns up, but it is classless
for other players to flash horns down? Uh? The argument, I guess
would be just that it's like you're mocking an horns down is intended to be
in some fashion derogatory, I guess. But well, there's this is this
is where we just like, this is where we take the sports stuff too
seriously, because it's not like if they flipped you a middle finger, I
would I would concur that that would be classless if they flipped off the stands
as they're walking. The North Carolina State player do that to a rep the
other day. They barely won a game where the reps were very controversial and
has the rep turned around and the guys walking off the floor at the end,
he flipped them a double bird and it's probably getting suspended, but they
might be worth it. I don't know that. I think is classless.
Funny but classless. But horns up worst taste. Horns up is like,
that's your thing, that's your symbol, like and you should own it,
and they do, but you should like, that's just a sports thing,
that's just a school thing. Horns down is simply just saying we beat you
or we don't like that, like, like, what do you want?
And their players do that when they win games, makes fun of your chant
or what ye like when the Texas win games. When Texas wins on the
road, their players do the horns up at the other teams fans. Yeah,
is that the last list. That's the same thing, That is the
exact same thing. Yeah, it is, It really is. No,
what happened was He's gotta be feeling some heat. He's been a big disappointment
this second year. Texas has the third most talent in the Big twelve and
right now they're sitting tied for twelve they just lost to the lastest and disappointment.
I never heard those two words together, right, Yeah, I know,
just totally shocking. That's one thing. We got a little lapse from
it. Last year. How Texas wasn't a disappointment. They played up to
their talent. They made the Elite eight. They were a favorite and an
elitiate game before the disappointment settle in. And I think that that team would
have been better with Chris Beard. I think Rodney Terry actually did make them
worse, but it just wasn't mass. It was masked by the fact that
they continue to win at the same clip they won under Beard. Nobody thought
this was gonna work. It's hard to call a higher a disappoint in the
first year, but Rodney Terry will not last at Texas. That was never
gonna work. They did it because it was a Unless he turns this around
quickly, he should probably be done after this year. Yes, they why
do they give him a five year contract? Like I they're Texas. They
can They'll always have money to get out of it, but they get what
they deserve. I just thought it was amazing that you lose a game and
you, as an adult leader of men is gonna go yell at a bunch
of twenty year olds who are celebrating their win for as you said, Landon
not not flipping birds to the crowd or anything, doing your own say whatever,
just whatever, Rodney Terry go go yelling to Clas said we didn't love
that in the press conference or whatever. But like actually getting after the players
like in there really is coach. It's like we can do this, but
you can't. Yeah, it's so weird. It's it's loser energy. It
really is Texas. Even Texas fans are like, wow, what a clown?
Like Texas fans aren't big Rodney Terry fans either. I don't know how
you could be, but especially whenever here where they are in Big twelve standings.
So Texas has lost to Central Florida and West Virginia by the way,
probably well Oklahoma State exists whatever, two of the worst three teams in the
league. UCF actually might not be but teams oh fine, you know what,
or gilself has his head up his ass so much. At least he
did that one night in Orlando. Big twelve standings. We got a four
way tie at the top. Two teams from Kansas and two teams from Texas.
That is Baylor, Kansas, Kansas State, and Texas Tech lead the
league at three and one, tied for fifth. A lot of schools,
seven of them TCU, Iowa State, by U Oklahoma, Cincinnati, Houston,
and UCF all two and two. In twelfth, Texas and West Virginia
are one and three, and then we always would put West Virginia in a
special place in last. I still believe West Virginia will finish last in this
league. I think Oklahoma they will have their inevitable oh and six stars,
then they win a couple of weeks. They're very bad, but I think
West Virginia after looking at the metrics, I think West Virginia is the worst
UH Oklahoma State all alone. They are oh and four eligible to play in
the postseason this year, and it will not matter as they are complete as
soundboard. We don't have to pause. Well, play again. I pushed
it fourteen times because that's what place they're in. Fourteen times. Let's do
some other games. If you wanted me to push it for every point Indiana
lost by we might be here till tomorrow. Thanks to the dominance of Zach
Eedy Number two Purdue Clawberd, Indiana and LANDAA Knicks Pickham record here at Assembly
Hall eighty seven sixty six. They were up by more than that at halftime.
It was just a complete colossal whipping for their first win there in three
years. Eighty had thirty three points and fourteen rebounds. Just another night at
the office for that cyclops. Also in the Big Ten, number eleven,
Wisconsin got into some trouble at Penn State and lost and lost eighty seven eighty
three to an eight and nine nit Mey Lions squad. People are gonna be
like that. That's gonna get people to look at their phones like this something
wrong with the AirPod. Oh no, that was just that was a pause
for Yeah, Purdue is going to win this league by three games as my
prediction, and lose to an eight seed. Oh no, oh no,
oh, I don't know what. I don't know what's happening in the oh
that speaking of touch No, no, just keep going. I didn't even
hey way top of the sec the secl serve as there were six Tennessee smashed
Florida, uh Nbertuching, Auburn, and Robert Vanderbilt on the road. A
number eight Kentucky hung ninety on Mississippi State. Speaking of all time irrelevant college
back, can you name one player that has ever played for Vanderbilt scot Okay,
you can't say Scottie Pippen. That's the one that I had. Originally
I had two. Can you name a second? I don't know if I
have another one. I can't name anything. If you If I think about
Vanderbilt basketball, the only thing that I can think of is how their arena,
how you sit on the baselines, like the benches are on the baselines.
Does Vanderbilt have the worst Power five athletic program? Cal is cal there?
Their baseball is very, very good, So maybe if you want to
dig deeper, that they're really good. But Cal and Louisville softball and base
Stanford's good at women's basketball, though I can't name any Yeah, it's awful.
Yeah, they probably are the most relevant as Nick is. The words
Nick is emphasizing in the notes is making me laugh. And now the order
got all messed up. I think Landon, now you're after Nick. I
am, yeah, man, I was gonna make a joke and then I
couldn't darn it anyway, Where are we? Chris Beard, Chris Beard,
Yeah, he's speaking of this is awful. The team lost at LSU by
a lot. They are now good. We knew this was coming. They
played basically Lindsey Wilson twenty six times, they won all of them, some
shockingly, and now they're bad because they're playing real teams. Hey, they
have the same record as Kansas, so Daddy Kenpom might think that they're pretty
good. They beat all those crappy four quad four teams, Nick says on
ran Kansas just like Ray Cole This. Hey, ken Pom might be okay
with that at this point. Number one Yukon continue to surge in Biggie's play,
taking down Number eighteen Creaton and a horrible to watch sixty two forty eight
final. They got Donovan Klinging back and look the part as a number one
team, at least on defense. Number seventeen Marquette, speaking of coaches,
Shaka Smart gotta win. He defeated Villanova at home on Monday night. Sure
if he tried to play defense or not, but they did win. Louisville
got lasted at number four North Carolina and he just keeps winning acc games.
Is this actually an accomplishment? Though, No, it's it's absolutely not.
The ACC titles are worthless. Why is Duke so whatever? Duke is ranked
like seven in the country, and there is not one thing that is remotely
interesting about Duke's schedule. They beat Baylor, they have not beaten anybody else
with the polls. Duke's second best win is an eight loss Michigan State team.
Duke is weirdly not good, Like I'm not I'm not sure why they're
not that good, but hey, for similar reasons that Texas isn't good.
That's it's Harry to laugh. Nick as being Nick that always split that one.
No Nick type the first word, I emphasized the second sweet. All
right, well, speaking of emphasizing, did anything on Thursday night? Yeah,
number ten Memphis lost at home to South Florida by one point. That's
all I see. Yeah, you could have foreseen that AAC team not being
that good, which is us Wichita State was winning at twenty third ranked Florida
Atlantic until the final couple minutes and then they blew it, and then Illinois
beat the former fighting uh uh. Hunter Dickinson's Michigan has their worst team in
years. Yeah, that's because they're coach speaking of Mbeicel coaches seven and eleven.
Goodness, get together, Wolverines. Let's look at Michigan's seven wins.
So Michigan seven wins are as follows you and c Asheville, Youngstown State,
Saint John's. Hey, there's one I've heard of Stanford the barely Iowa Caitlin
Clark didn't play Eastern Michigan and somehow they beat a good Ohio State team?
Did they? Really? Ohio State was good for a while. Ohio State's
now lost. Anything can happen in rival game. Ohio State's kind of falling
apart recently. The whole Big Ten is except for Purdue, it really is.
It's terrible and watchins in football to the entire Big tenas except for like
three teams. Yeah, can't wait to see eight Big Ten teams make the
tournament and only Purdue makes it out of round one. Maybe that didn't happen
last year. I guess next ass ranked teams to lose since the last time
we did a podcast. Number nine scotch Is lost to them bitches. Oh
God, here we go. Number ten, the Fighting Penny Hardaways. They
lost to a team that almost beat Alabama and football sort of, but not
really. Number eleven. This is the state Lance lpel Is from Lost two.
Nope, no, why does he get No? No, absolutely not.
Number sixteen. You got lost state lost to? Uh what what?
New Mexico's got to be pretty high on the list of irrelevant states, right,
I know they have area fifty one, but other than that, they
have Albertquerque. Can you spell Albertquerque a L B E. Nope, it's
already alba. No, it's not it is. There's no r there.
No, it's albu. Oh, that's that's us trying to spell things.
Keep going moving along. Number eighteen Creighton, Creighton. You Dora kid grows
up twenty minutes from Allenfield House. Creighton lost to brett Or Mark's entrance to
the New York Market. Oh my god. Number nineteen Wow, Uh what's
his name? I'm already forgeting. Ernest, you scored eleven points in a
game. That's crazy. They lost to the Cincinnati Bearcats. Chili is terrible.
Yeah, this is terrible. That's about who lost, not because this
segment is making me. Number twenty two the fighting Crisp. No, that's
a horrible choice of words. Number twenty two Old miss a lot. I
yeah, No, I have no idea what Nick just wrote there. They
lost something. He's not wrong, folks. No, I'm not saying I'm
not advocating for that. I'm saying people are they lost the l SU they
I guess that that's that's the old Uh where the school where Les Miles eight
grass. Did you guys see Baby Gronk take photos with Livvy Dune that once?
I know I didn't. You guys have baby Gronk. I don't know
who baby Gronk is. Oh, he might still be around. I don't
know. But his dad was training him to be like like the next Rob
Gronk cask he or whatever. He's like some ten year old football player.
That was anyways, were good, And then he went around and took pictures
of influencers, and Livy Dune was one anyway speaking of attractive girls. Uh
not, I was stay Actually I was still had some twenty four hour stay
lost and the entire school. I love how good this show is. I
love how funny. Is so bad? This podcast is so bad and it's
all standing in. That's number twenty five tacks of sex lost to Houston.
Jeez As the show was actually pretty good until well, and then it got
better when Nick posting pictures. And now I could have predicted exactly ten minutes
ago that this was going to happen. Yeah, hey, don't worry.
I'm sure it'll get better with Ask Rock Chalk Blog. It always does.
All of our favorite segments. Nick wakes up out of the coma every time
we get to the second Do you ever have asked r CBS don't ask?
No one cares a chord N Yeah, that's right. So the good thing
we got fourteen of them today. I appreciate you. I appreciate the question
askers. Oh wow, this is so at sick. Nick nine one one
says, please do us a favor and share some excerpts from the furfey Wikipedia
page. Okay, oh god? So. According to Wikipedia, a furfey
is Australian slang for an erranous or improbable story that is claimed to be factual,
interesting, It says also name see also scuttle butt, which also has
a Wikipedia page. Let's see here, I'm trying to find out what this
says here. Furfees are supposedly heard from reliable or reputable sources, sometimes second
or third hand, and widely believed until discounted. The word is said to
derive from water cards designed and made by a company established by who else,
John Furfey of J. Furfey and Sons. The steel and cast iron tanks
were first made in the eighteen eighties and were used on farms of my stock
agents. Many Furfey water carts were used to take water to Australian Army personnel
during World War One. But because these carts were places where people gathered and
talked, a furfey became the name for the sort of chatter that circulated by
the water tank. So it's kind of like Australians slaying for a chat at
the water cooler at the office. Wow. And it's one of the person
person's in the references. His name is Harold hink Fuss. Furfey was also
used as a term for fart in Australia, according to Wikipedia, which we
can always do that too. Wow, that all Australians do is talk about
farts. It sounds like we should go Wow. That was educational. There
is also a link on language hat dot com for Furfey, and there is
a link to the Jfurshey and Son's official website. Yeah let's do it.
That was hilarious. I love those are. My favorite type of ascarcb's is
the ones that take us thre sons engineering, Berfey galvanizing. What if John
is in line to inherit this Albury galvanizing celebrating over one hundred and fifty years
of family history. Okay, that's older than Johnny Ferby. There's a lot
of John Furpy's. It would appear at Jayhawk Alumn ninety nine. How many
losses does the Big twelve season champade over? Under six? I'll take an
under. I think Kansas get out under five? Really, what about five
and a What if it's four and a half, I would still say under.
I think four. I could see five depending on people wrapping up leagues
whatever. But yes, I think Kansas will go fourteen and four, and
I think that might be enough to win it. That's definitely gonna be enough
to win it outright, I think if they get there at ol R.
Casey soda or pop it is m is poppub neither Nick? What did you
say neither? Well? No, like, what war do you use?
Yeah? Soda? Well, I can tell you one thing. I want
a big soda instead. Of a thank you, thank you. Awesome.
That was that was my best work of the show. I can't wait for
him to get realized. Dogs are cats. Cats dogs easy dogs. That's
a tough one. I love cats, but I want a dog someday.
So beach vacation or mountain vacation, yeah, well, you know what,
They don't have to go outside and pee at three in the morning, So
I'm a fan. It's true. Cats are a lotless maintenance. I am
going to get out numbered on this beach vacation or mountain vacation. That's so
mountain. Yeah, you guys are both wrong. It is a beach vacation.
I want. Okay, how many activities can you do on a beach?
I'm not talking in the ocean, talking on a beach. How many
activities can you do on a beach? How many can you do in the
mountains except for hike, hike, ski, winter sports, I mean winter
sports in general. You can go, uh four wheel go ride four wheelers,
so you can do that as well, and awesome, mountains are way
prettier than the beach. If you're counting that, then you can count like
a bunch of you can ride dune buggies on the beach, and you can
ride four wheelers on the beach too. Who rides dune buggies on the beach
rather hike than sit on the beach? No, I mean like that,
it's so boring. You just sit there and stare at the ocean like way.
You want a good view, you win a good view. Go go
to them, Go to Colorado and go on a hike up to like twelve
thousand feet. It's good for you, get some exercise. Inherently cold,
like you can go to mountainous regions in the summer too. Yeah. Yeah,
but it's like a perfect seventy degrees in Colorado in the summer. Yeah.
Utah is like the least he would place ever. And it's also doesn't
Colorado get hotter than Kansas in the summer. I thought Colorado gets up to
scorching temperatures. No, someplace Denver gets in the nineties and stuff. Denver's
not in the mountains. Yeah, I guess that's true. They're just high
altitude and aisle seat or window seat on an airplane. I love the window
seat every day because you do not have randos walking past you. You get
an entire thing to lay your head against and you have an entire window to
look out when you're bored and you want to look out below you. It's
it's the goaded seat. It's the most goaded seat. Also, you don't
have to sit next to Sorry, hey, this is so good. It's
my fault. Totally my fault. No, go ahead, keep going.
This is my fault. I was just gonna say. I was just gonna
say, you have one the aisle seat. In the window seat, you
have one less person to sit next to. If you're in the middle seat.
Gosh, that is the worst seat on a plane. I don't mind
the middle seat if I know the two beats. Yeah, you're one hundred
and twenty nine pounds. I know, I'm not. I'm like one hundred
and twenty three pounds an aisle seat. I have to pee a lot,
so I prefer the ale But if I if I can actually like not go
to the bathroom every twenty minutes, I would say the window seat. I
think the windows seat is their correct answer for most people. Last time,
last time I sat in the aisle. Uh, the guy who's bringing the
drinks around dripped like a soaking wet bag of ice. Directly on the shoes
that I was wearing, and that was a two tie. Why did you
fly Spirit, sir? What did you think was gonna happen? It was
Delta too. Wow, that's sad that, you know how I know it
wasn't Spirit because you're still alive and didn't crash exactly. That's the real Spirit's
going bankrupt, so they're not gonna be around the sholders. Shocking. Yeah
at Preston's skirt sick. Thoughts on the new Big twelve team so far more
impressive than I ansticipated. Yeah, we kind of said that in the uh
in the recaps, they've all been at worst as good as we thought they'd
be. Yeah, yeah, they're all good. It's like we it's it's
really like you added four more very big Twelvey teams that are good at defense,
that have good home court advantages. Even we thought UCF would just be
like a senior Bingo Hall with being in Orlando, and that place was awesome
in their two home games. It was so very very fun, good addition
to this league. Your Marcus has done a lot of things since he's taken
over the conference, but getting the in college athletics I think, yeah,
getting the heat, he knew exactly which teams to pursue, and they've they've
done a great job at evan numbers. With Furfee balling out, who is
the best international player to ever play at Kansas, Oh, I think it's
I mean, so Joel Embiid isn't the answer here because we can't use their
NBA careers. It's probably u Doka, isn't it? Or Yeah, I
love friends? Yeah, a final four, I just but it's not speed,
it's sphe never allegedly did not make a final four. And as for
I think it's Udoka, I think Udoka and and I'll listen to the friends
too, who they were both Big twelve Player of the years. Yeah,
I think I think Udoka is a really solid answer. He was really good.
It's probably one of those two guys, unless we're forgetting someone blatantly at
cope fraud next year instead of Andrew Higgins is Canadian so at at Yeah,
technically that if if you're counting Andrew Wiggins, he's the best basketball He is
the best international player that's ever put on in Kansas Jersey in college, because
otherwise it's Joel Embiid at cope fraud next year instead of getting to Timberlake slash.
He who shall not be named levels who I'm assuming is a top fifty
he says supposed to be top fifty transfers. I assume that that's a Charlie
Moore dissh would but Tyane wasn't a top fifty transfer, but I guess we'll
count it. Would you rather get five transfers that are like Travion Tennyson,
not top one transfer. It seems like the more you bring in, the
more likely one is to actually stick versus just one to two. Well,
I don't think this is a conversation if Artario Morris doesn't do Artario Morris things
off the floor because he was a very highly sought after transfer, and I
think he would have been very good. He's exactly the hole this team needs
filled, but he was more interested in filling out holes. So o oh,
my, ooh, thank you for listening to the last episode of Inside
the Paint and when the joke is so bad you just have to call it
a new segment at Show Me Hawk. If the Texans and Chiefs win this
weekend in the Division Round, the Chiefs and Texans would meet in the AFC
Championship game on January twenty eighth. Six days later, we get the KU
Houston game at Allen Fieldhouse. What a week that would be. Yeah,
Well, the best three day stretch ever was when you had KU narrowly beat
who they barely beat the day before, Chiefs built they barely beat somebody.
And then it was cheapd oh, it was k State. It was the
k State comeback after self's dad died. Then you had the Chiefs Bills overtime
game. Then you had o Chi's Texas Tech game, all in a three
day run, and then it died like a dog the next weekend with the
Bengals in Kentucky. That was accurate, But yes, it would be a
great sports week. Another one from show Me Hawk. With the big twelve
football championship potential that KU has next season. How many Day one plus Day
two picks do you think Kansas has in the twenty twenty five NFL Draft.
I think there's at least three that stand out. Who are you three?
I mean people are gonna say Jaylen Daniels, if he gets healthy, right,
that's the that's the that's the answer. I think Devin Neil has a
shot, and I think Kobe Bryant has a shot. Yeah, I think
if you had the name three, those are the three most likely. I'll
say they get one officially because it's hard to get top one hundred draft picks,
but they have three if everything goes well. They have a couple potential
draft picks at defensive end as freshman's coming in. Obviously they will not freshman's
Yeah, I know how to talk freshmen, but also they will have to
be around for a few years. But they're pretty highly touted recruits. All
right, let's get to the important questions here from at Ryan underscore Landreth.
Yeah, so clear out the clear out the basketball stuff and let's answer the
good stuff here. If Nick was a contestant on deal or no deal with
two cases left, you guys both see dealer nod. Youre right, you
know the game works? Yeah, okay, cool, there are two cases
left, Nick. The only options on the bard are one dollar and five
dollars, and you get a bank offer, and the bank offers you to
sell your case, which either has one dollar or five dollars in it.
A Jennifer Aniston doppelganger that wanted to marry you despite having yes despite having every
ounce of arm space covered in tattoos. And she says, if you take
my hand in marriage, you will commit to ten more seasons of inside the
paint. How quickly would Nick sit on the no deal button? I was
in until you mentioned the coming back for ten seasons? Agine friends Eric Jennifer
Anison in the modern day with a tattoo sleeve home my goodness, and Nick
would turn it down because he doesn't want to talk about it. Because doing
this show three times a week had me five year anniversary. Nick was a
home mistate again. She's like, Hi, Honey, I'm feeling it tonight.
I'm like, sorry, I gotta get on my podcast with two of
my stupid friends to talk about kat basketball for three hours. They beat Cincinnati.
That's right, no for you? Aiar generate that for me. Sure
you will have no until you talk about Kansas beating the horn Frogs by six.
How it works at k you tweets and News. Let's say Johnny Furfrey
at k you Tweets and News. Let's say Johnny Furfey from here on out
shoots at least thirty five percent from three and average is at least seven points
per game. How confident would you feel about making a final four? They
got as good as shot as anyone if they get that, Yes, it
would be a couple more here at Kamblopolk Golf. How many angry ref tweets
what we get from Ryan during the Chiefs game? None? If the refs
don't suck big balls, but they probably will, so you'll get a lot
of lock at so at least ten if the Chiefs do not win. What's
one team that you will all be okay with winning the Super Bowl? Yeah?
The Lions are the top? Nick? Is that who you said?
Yeah? The Bills are fine. I think the Bills and the Chiefs are
very similar with similar fan bases. I don't hate the Bills. The Texans
are also fine. I don't want to see the Niners. I don't want
to see the Packers. I don't really care about Tampa, and I don't
want to see the Ravens. I don't know. If there's no I don't.
I would root for Detroit. That's the only team that I actually want,
and I don't really I wouldn't be mad if anyone wins. Detroit and
Houston would be my second and third after Kansas. City. I think,
Yeah, I think that's right. I asked. I don't really want to
see any other AFC team win it because I like how Mahomes is the only
young AFC quarterback with a Super Bowl. So I think I'd probably root for
whoever's in the NFC as long as it wasn't Green Bay. Let's see other
anywhere here. Okay, so this one, you root for Josh Allen.
That might be kind of a hot take, but I like, Yeah,
I like Josh Allen, but I don't want to see that argument get closer.
Two more at Elliot Ruson h says, on my mind is how good
of a show you guys put on? Keep it up? Always appreciate that,
sir, Well, you haven't heard this one yet. Do we feel
as bad losing to UCF now they seem like a good team. No,
I don't nearly as much. Nick. Do you still feel gross about that
or not so much? I don't really care. They should have won it.
They should have won it, but it's not. It's not the worst
loss ever like some people were saying it was. Yeah. No, you
see, it's definitely better than we thought, at least a little bit.
Maybe Texas is just so much worse than we thought. Bill self said today
that Furfy is the fifth starter going forward. What do you guys think What
is el Marco's role at this point? Try to get like three assists a
game and four points the warm Yeah, honestly, that's It's sad, but
I think that's pretty much where we're at. And the last question is from
Dick Underscore Taser. You guys are pretty young, but without using the magic
of the internet, can you tell me who this is and how it pertains
the itp ten dollars venmo shot from yours truly, Wayne Kerr if you know
it, also says you guys seem really loose this season, seemed to be
enjoying it. Yeah. Well, again, as Landa said, you haven't
learned this show yet, because there is the loosest show we've done maybe ever,
also the longest. I have no idea what this picture is none.
Yeah, you sent this picture in the chat and it's I'm ninety percent sure
it's from Fantasy Island, an old TV show from like the seventies or the
eighties. How do you know that? How in the world do you know
that I'm a nerd? Is forty years before you were born. Yeah,
you can google stuff that existed before you're born. You know. He said
your parents took part in some of that stuff. He said, no googling,
you lie, you cheated. No I knew that, but no,
I mean like in my life. I mean i'd known this. I knew
that information previously. I think google the picture. It's a short guy in
a tuxedo with a bunch of like a boat. I'm pretty sure it's not
the love boat. I'm pretty I want to what it has to do with
I t P Is it Nick? U? Is it a Nick surrounded by
a bunch of girls he would not date? But because they're all yeah,
that's true, they don't have tats. So Nick. Maybe he has a
really silly name. And I'm pretty sure he's his most famous line, at
least that my mom would tell me about, because she watched Fantasy Island.
Uh. He would say, like the plane, the plane, and they
would see the plane come in and land on Fantasy Island, and then someone
would be there on Fantasy Island. I'm very curious to see how close he's
right. Maybe maybe his name deep down is ask and that's that's the link
to inside the paint. I don't know. I'd love to see the same
word repeated. I think it's right there. I can't think of that.
It's gonna so it's as that's his name. I think that's it. Yes,
Wayne, please let us know, like Landon, you gave it a
good run. I'm curious to see how how close you are. Excellent question.
Wayne always gets the best, the best questions with his He really makes
us think of Wayne's character as a fan is to me because Wayne thought we
sucked at the start? Yeah, is that true? He's am I imagining
that best questions? Yeah? Yeah, sets the standard high. All right,
well, we are so so long into the show. So if you
ever have asked garcs you know what to do? All right, play the
music. Let's let's do this here. Number three Kansas at West Virginia Saturday,
January twenty at at three o'clock on Yesplus. It's ironically spokes there Ryan
and that it was audible because ESPN plus struggles with that read read about this,
this this awful basketball team while you get to listen to this the winner
of the Bruce Webber Welp, he's getting fired award. He's best not his
fault West Virginia. They are six and eleven and tied for twelfth place in
the conference with the one and three record. They beat Texas though they did
beat Texas, but I think that might happen a lot this season. That's
their only Power Five win this year, which is pretty awful. They're the
lowest ranting Big Teal team Ken Palmett number one forty, which is behind Furman,
Lipscomb and high point is that the lowest a Big Twell team has When
was the last time the Big Twell team was that low? And kenho good
question. I don't know the answer to it, but it's been It's been
a hot minute. Nick, tell me about who technically earns the Mountaineer's best
player. He is actually pretty good. Yeah, Raycin Battle is the Mountaineer's
best player, averaging nineteen points while assuming the driving score role. Noah Farkan
and Kobe Johnson or the other backcourt names to note whire Arizona transfer Kirk Kriza
has been a disappointment with ten points and five assists. Thus, I think
it's because Kirk Crisa is depressed that he's playing for West Virginia. I don't
know why he transferred here. Arizona was always the better school and the better
team. That's just a weird even one to the transfer. Surely someone Honey,
we'll take that guy. I mean, Bill should have been on that
one. It'd be awesome. He's a good player too. Now, if
he goes off and scores twenty one when he averages ten, I won't be
like super mad because he's a Yeah, he's a great player. He's an
All Pac twelve player. The front court is anchored by sinny center Jesse Edwards,
who averages fifteen to nine. And then, of course, there is
surefire white guy of the game Quinnslazinski, who plays alongside him and adds fourteen
and five ball shooting thirty percent from three. He's gonna sounds like the guy
from Honey, I shrunk the kids. He's going four for five and there's
not a darn thing you can do about it. Watching Oh wow, we
just have all the movies at once. I guess the Mountaineers are simply one
of college basketball's worst offensive teams, not Power five's worst offensive teams. One
of the words. Yeah, they are horrendous. This I think I think
they just put it in French, took my old paragraph and put it in
French. What am I supposed to do? Try to read it. We're
way into this show. I want to end it and I here we go.
So this team is outside the top three hundred in points baskets, field
goal percentage, three point percentage, and shots taken city back and forth.
Their biggest strengths are getting to the free throw line a lot and not fouling,
which is bizarre to say about a West Virginia bizarea. With that three
points said, as a team, I'm gonna go ahead and say it,
this doesn't feel like a squad capable of getting hot enough to beat the Jayhawks.
Put money on the West Virginia over three point max. Kansas think get
back to five hundred Morgantown for the first time in the decade with a win.
They're five and six at Westerrnian Coliseum thanks to a sixteen and oh record
against the Mountaineers and games played outside the state of West Virginia. They are
twenty one and six against this team since they joined the Big Twelve. But
this is by far the worst Wes Virginia team of the twelve that Kansas has
played and there's no return game. This is the lone West Virginia matchup of
the season for Kansas. I mean, it would be nice to have two
wins. Kansas buy a lot. We're twenty seven hundred beats in the show.
I know it's back to back road games. It may not be super
pretty at times. I don't know if they would twenty six, but Kansas
should handle West Virginia. Give me the Jayhawks seventy eight to fifty nine.
Kansas seventy eight to sixty seven. I think they get up for one and
they lose still Kansas eighty, West Virginia sixty. His nick is just I
legitimately don't know how we're gonna do other games at this point. Oh big
chickens, big well, big twelve games. Can you predict the winner of
these games? Number nine Baylor at Texas, You know what, give me
the Longhorns. It was kind of I don't know, man, I give
me the gimme Baylor. I don't think they're losing back to back. Yeah,
I'm gonna say Baylor as well. Number fifteen Oklahoma at Cincinnati. I
see Landon on the last show. I don't know if you heard it or
not. I said, I don't think Oklahoma is gonna be very good the
rest of the way, and I think they lose matchups like this on their
to mediocrity. Give me the bear Cats, I agree, yep. UCF
at number five Houston. I think the Cougars win by a lot, Cougars,
but by not as much as you think. All right, now it's
swung too far. Now you're feel UCF a little too much. They're going
to roll in this game. Number twenty four Iowa State at number nineteen TCU.
I will not pick Iowa State on the road at all this year.
Give me the horn Frogs. Same yepny Frogs. I am going with the
Cyclones. T drops back to back, all right. I like the call
Number twenty BYU at number twenty five Texas Tech. Normally I would love to
pick the Cougars in this game. However, I'm going with my new to
the Big twelve team against the team that's used to the Big twelve. Tough
atmosphere. BYU didn't play in very many environments like this. I will take
the Red Raiders at home. Yep, I'm going with Youyu. Oklahoma State
at Kansas State. I really wanted to I really was hoping ky State would
play somebody like a Texas or a Cincinnati, and it'd be easy to call
them losing a home game here. But they're playing the worst team in the
conference. Give me the Cats. Yep. Yeah, I mean it's pretty
obvious. Okland State's bad other games. I'm gonna try to remember this.
Number seventeen Marquette at Saint John's. Uh, Marquett's been so bad on the
road. Really, I think they get this one. Yep. Well,
I don't know what yup means, sir, I mean I agree with you.
Markutt's gonna win. Okay. We Land and I both said that our
pick up the same time in my answer, and then you just went yep.
Number two Purdue at Iowa. It's Caitlin Clark playing. I'm gonna take
Purdue. I'm gonna learn my lesson. Yeahdue, yes, they will win
by plenty. Number one Connecticut at Villa Nova. Wildcats are pretty good taking
down number one. I say they do it here. Same No. Number
twenty two fighting Chris Beard's at number thirteen Auburn. Give me Auburn by approximately
forty and let's pick the playoff game. Chiefs at Bill's Sunday Night at five
thirty. Here's my call, Chiefs by two scores, Chiefs by field goal
at the buzzer, Chiefs by fifty. Noah, I like it, man,
I think they win by multiple scores. Can't wait for that to be
used against me here. So our next show is gonna come on Sunday,
probably right before the Chiefs game. So I guess we technically did it to
it Monday. Yeah, I won't post it till Monday, I guess.
And who do they have next? Is it Cincinnati? Isn't the fighting Travis
Kelsey's it is okay, Taylor Swift coming. No, they won't be there,
especially the Chiefs the best Travis Taylor will not, which will spark at
least twenty articles to be written about nothing. You think that they'll go?
Our will be there if they Sunday night. I do think they. I
do think they'll be there, maybe if they don't lose, but there.
I don't know how I saw this because I don't read tabloid media or anything,
but someone told me that they ordered custom Cincinnati jerseys from a shopping casey
uh, so I why else would they do that if they're not gonna go
to the game and Lawrence. It's literally it'll be interesting. I don't think
that. I don't know if they'll show up the day after they lose a
playoff game. I don't know. Maybe I don't know if you people do
that, I don't I don't know. We'll see I guess it'll be fun,
though. Quick turnaround for Kansas. All right, this is had the
paint. Thanks for enduring the probably the longest episode we've ever done. I'm
Ryan Landriff. I'm uh Steverwin, I'm Steverwin's crocodile that you're gonna say stever
Wins sting Ray. I'm glad that you said. I'm at least someone said
