PEACOCK!
Grrrrr...
6:30 PM CT The Crimson and Blue Show radio coverage begins, leading into Brian Hanni and Greg Gurley calling the game for the Jayhawk Radio Network on the kuleanplayer starting at 7:30 PM CT.
With OU gone this is the only chance I get to channel one of my favorite show tunes - HE
Ohhhk-lahoma State a favorite son’s come for a bout!
First you had him jinxed, GIA was a sphinx that
He simply couldn’t figure out!
But nowwwww he’s got your ‘Pokes, a 3 game GIA win run!
And 5 of the last 6! Fun!
Overall, his last 10 his
Won-Loss record’s 9 and 1!
He will always belong to the land,
But his life and his fame oh, so grand
Is with KANSAS –
“The Cradle of the Game”, home of
“The Cathedral of College Basketball”
KANSAS - the place of which NMB Hall of Famer Larry Brown has said
"There's no better place to coach, there's no better place to go to school, there's no better place to play."
NOT sorry, Cowboys.
He’ll always be yours as a player, but he’ll also
Always be the Winningest Head Coach in KANSAS Basketball history and
Ours until he rides off into the sunset.
Until then, we think he’s got your number now.
It’s another KANSAS JAYHAWKS Men’s Basketball...
... Buh duh DUH duh DUH DUH duh duh duh duh DUH DUH DUH ... BALL NIGHT!
Monday at 8:00 PM CT on Peacock ($$$) our AP8* KANSAS JAYHAWKS (19-6|9-3) travel back to Bill’s alma mater for another opportunity to swoop in and out, escaping the bal-chatri that is Gallagher-Iba Arena with his 4th straight win there. Self has improved his record against his alma mater in recent years, winning the last 3 games played in GIA, 5 of the last 6, and overall winning 16 of the last 19 games played against the Cowboys.
ESPN's Matchup Predictor says KANSAS wins 78% of the time (link). The spread is 6.5 points in KU’s favor
asteroid’s predictions for Oklahoma State game average out to a 73.7% likelihood of a KU road win, with a 7.5 point edge and a score of KU 82, OKS 74 or 75.
Here is the link to CorpusJayhawk’s Rock Chalk Challenge newsletter projection. Corpus says it up front - KU must win out to have a shot at the title and controls it's own destiny! The DPPI is projecting a (rounded) 81 to 75 KU win, with a probablity of 67.3% that JAYHAWKS WIN!! Corpus himself thinks the KU defense is going to do better and KANSAS wins 80-70.
