Well, the 'Hawks are back On The Hill!
Looking to give their fans a thrill.
Build that win streak to 3.
No place they'd rather be.than
In "THE PHOG" playing Towson.
Towson.
Towson...
on another KANSAS JAYHAWKS MEN'S BASKETBALL...
... Buh duh DUH duh DUH DUH duh duh duh duh DUH DUH DUH ... BALL NIGHT!
Yes, JAYHAWKS fans, our crimson & blue boyz in the Oread hood are back in "THE PHOG" for another opportunity to excel and entertain!
Visiting Allen Fieldhouse & playing on James Naismith Court for this game are the Tigers of Towson University located in Towson, Maryland, just 10 miles north of Baltimore (Balmer for any Marylanders reading this).
Wikipedia: Towson University Men's Basketball
The 6-4 Tigers are looking for their first road win of the season (0-3 so far), but AFH is 99.9% NOT the venue to be in to earn that. In fact ESPN analystics have KU winning over 95% of the time, with the spread over 17 points in KU's favor.
Here's the history of the series, which KU leads 3-0, . The programs first met in 2006, and the most recent game was 2013.
HC Bill Self today on DnP: "I have no idea [what his status will be on Tuesday]. We didn't practice yesterday. I just saw him in the hallway and he's going to lift right now with the guys. And so we'll practice later. But, but obviously he had some, not hamstring, based on what I was told, but some quad cramping there. To me, you guys saw the game, it was evident that he wasn't moving at the pace that he's got to move at, the way people are going to guard him and that stuff. So it was obviously bothering him."
