Bragg was the weakest link today. When Self brought in Colby instead of Bragg is when we took over the game. I like Bragg and anticipate him having a good career at KU but he was really bad today. Thankfully Colby played extremely well. Dominate win - on to the Sweet 16!

Agreed! He's obviously been learning and waiting his turn, and his time has come! We're gonna need him too against Purdue...Swanigan is gonna give Lucas nightmares!
But I'm gonna savor this win, and go cheer for the Tarheels to lose!

Bragg wasn't that bad. Even Josh made some stupid mistakes
I was excited to see Coleby come in, tho. He actually got a REBOUND!!!!!!

It is Coleby not Colby. You will see it a lot more in the box score in coming games. He is an older, calmer guy and his calmness made him great today. Bragg was too frantic but will calm down next game. Good win.
Looks like we have to win the Big 10 Championship. Purdue next and Michigan and/or Wisconsin could be in our future.

Good observation about the big X. As for the Swanigan match up I think Josh will match up with him. They usually use him as the 4 with another big body as the 5. I think this will be another tough game. Hopefully the Hawks can get a comfortable win in the end but I will take any win. They are all good teams from here on out.

We will be on home turf. Just hope we take more advantage of it than last time they played there. However, the trophy at the end is much bigger.

Actually, Coleby got FOUR rebounds and scored 3 points. Nice performance in just 9 minutes.

Sorry for the misspelling, I knew better but was in hurry when I posted. Good article expressing what I was trying to say about Carlton and Dwight.

Coleby's per-minute stats must be great. Seems like earlier in the season, he'd get in for a minute or two, but in that time he'd get a dunk, grab a rebound or two, or make a good defensive stop or block.
We're going to need him. Glad he's rising to the challenge.
