This is another L, what is going on with this team. Can’t play, cannot shoot. There is nothing good about this.

Not a single thing. I tried to be positive but man, this is bad. I was telling my wife at one point the only person the floor willing and able to score was Wilson. Harris, Petiford or Adam's were not shooting. McCullar has been ice cold. With Dick out and two fouls they had no one...I am at a complete loss.

Play the bench, take the lumps and see if you can make a march run. The wheels seem to be coming off the bus. Call me spoiled or whatever, but the B12 field should not be lapping the Hawks. kSu in first is just unbelievable …. KJ was non-existent.

Totally agree. I can't even put into words how frustrating it is because of where we were just a little over a week ago. #1 in the power rankings. 5-0 and 16-1 and now here we are. Every team in the Big 12 looks like they could beat us. It doesn't make sense to me at all.

I'll even give them last nights loss. Baylor is good. If that would have been our first loss I'd have been OK with it. But the fact that we lost at KSU when we really could have won and then to get absolutely dismantled by TCU, yeah they are good, they are NOT that good...it just doesn't make sense. I am scratching my head trying to figure out what has happened since 16-1 and 5-0, to today.

I’m not panicking until March, but the product isn’t looking too good right now. I really think the starters are tired, mentally and physically. Fouls piling up and shooting getting putrid are tell tale signs of tired players.

However, I thought it was telling that Self got almost every top bench player in the game yesterday (not counting walk ones). As if he knows the pressure is mounting to get more time for players, and the psyches of the players sitting the entire game can’t be positive.

But, each one got about 3 minutes of time, and then got yanked. And I never saw Zach go in. I was so frustrated by our complete lack of effort to offensive rebound. Several shots in a row, we had five guys heading back to half court. Rice FINALLY gets in, fights for an offensive rebound, gets it and scores, His reward? Yanked out never to play again.

It was almost as if Self was saying “there you go all you whiny alums”. I play the subs, and we still lose.

I will now turn off the TV when we’re playing this poorly, and hope that Self works his magic and we emerge as a contender in March.
