No, not the musical group. The university.
Tipoff against the mighty Terriers is imminent. Hopefully, it's the only Wyattvision (or rather, Boylevision) game we are forced to enjoy this season. Here's to an excellent TV package!

Let's rock the isle, bitches!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
3 easy buckets so far...
…keep that up.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Dom sounds good early
Cats lead 9-6. Jordan with 4 and Jake with a deep 3.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Just need to defend the arc.
That’s been the only negative so far.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Yeah, all their points are from out there.
Where are the guards?
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Okie State in all black unis = awesome.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
What channel?
I’m watching Syracuse whip up on Cal on ESPN2.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
ESPN
just started
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Oh
I thought you wrote Ohio State. I was thinking basketball.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Interesting that Wally came off the bench for Jordan, before Jamar came in
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Wally with 2 quick fouls
looks like he’ll find the bench for a while.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Sounds like we continue to play ugly
a number of turnovers already.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Yeah
And the shooting disappeared.
I reiterate: Where are the guards? Where is Denis? He should chew a zone up.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Jake made the first one...
…and hasn’t taken a shot since.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Until that one!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Listening to K-State BB
or watching my dog go nuts, pulling every single toy out of her toy basket…which is currently more entertaining?
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
There were 76 FT's shot in the Nova game
Pretty sure we got the same crew.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Yikes
At least it sounds like we’re starting to wake up now.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
CU ties it up 7-7
Save Hawk!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
I like Ben Boyle
But it’s just like with Wyatt in football.
He’s busy breaking down the last play while the next one is going on, and I know more from the crowd reaction then I do from the game call.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
If there's one negative about Martin's teams...
They really, really struggle against zone defenses.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Go Rodney Zonebuster!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
MCGRUBER!!!!!!!!!!!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Agreed
That and they are terrible defending in zone.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Bad combination.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Rod with the three. Niiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiice.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Either my feed is slow...
…or Pan types REALLY FAST…
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
He's pyschic
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
or that.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Thank God for McGruder
7 for 9 on the season.
But they’re 6 of 10. What the hell is wrong with our perimeter D?
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
So...
…are we looking at the same song different verse? Struggle all year against the zone and get beat by inferior teams that drain threes?
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
Well, we haven't lost yet
I think this is about as ugly as we will play this season. Bigs haven’t figured things out and still a lot of miscommunication.
They’ll be nearly unbeatable in February, I think.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Jake = Sharpshooter
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
FAIL
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Interesting development
Wally and Denis both playing with two fouls.
Not very like Frank, but I guess Denis has earned his trust. Now Wally, I can’t explain.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Clemente scoreless so far
Too hyped up for his homecoming?
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Why are we jacking up 3's?
We started by owning the paint, and we need to continue it.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
More important...
Why are we a fucking turnover machine?
Frank was right. We beat ourselves.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Shit guys, its a zone.
Not rocket science. How many careless turnovers have we had?
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
10
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
They've got two guys with three fouls already
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
Five missed free throws in a row
This is how you get upset, guys. Stupid careless mistakes.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Six
Fuck this.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Throw in 10 turnovers...
…terrible defense, and mediocre shooting and its a recipe for disaster.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Oh
to be a fly on the wall in that locker room at half
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
ABOUT TIME, DENIS!!!
Awesome!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Three guys with three fouls
I doubt they have the depth to hang on in the second half
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
They don't.
They use 6, maybe 7 guys.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Shit Denis, finally.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Finally, some energy.
its about time.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Rodney McGruder's coming-out party?
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Still....
…..bad, bad basketball players. Bad!
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
where is the game at
where are you able to watch the game tho???
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Nowhere
Radio only.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
what station
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
810wb.com
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
thanks.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Frank's gonna
make Mangino look like a pussy at halftime.
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
I hope not
TB - November 19, 2009
Lowe has 4
They just don’t have anyone else.
I wish I could have seen the 6’2" guard foul JHR. That would have been funny.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Is anyone else not able see Pan's gif's?
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
If so, epic fail by me.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Nope, just more fail
:-) We still love ya buddy.
Switch to photobucket. It’s never let me down.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
You're missing a midget luchadore take down a giant...
It’s great on this end.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Aw...
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
10-1 run to end the half
Well, Frank might modulate down from a 10 to maybe a 9.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
But...
…..he goes to 11.
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
I get an assist for that softball
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Props to you...
couldn’t let that one go by
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
Emphasis on maybe...
…if nothing else, this should get their attention for tomorrow (win or lose)
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
32 fouls
Definitely the same crew as the Villanova game.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Where's TB been by the way?
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
Married
:-D
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
So am I...
…and I’ve got two kids crawling on me. Bad excuse.;)
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
...and working
God it’s kicking my ass.
TB - November 19, 2009
Lets continue the 2nd half dominance...
…
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
OMGLOLWTFBANANA!!!
I love listening to games on the radio because I HAVE NO IDEA WTF IS GOING ON!!!
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
No shit
Basketball is a visual sport.
And Ben is doing his best Wyatt impression.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
You know how I know Denis scores?
The Puerto Ricans cheer.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Viva le Clemente!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
These refs REALLY love their whistles
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
yeah they do.
lets keep this lead up and keep these wheels moving.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Keep getting the ball inside
that’s the road to victory.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
And "left, right, left, right"
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
HAHA
i hear that.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Left, right, left, right!
Told ya!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
LEFT,RIGHT, LEFT, RIGHT!!!!!!!!!!
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Finally figuring out ways to get it to the bigs
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
For Christ's sake...JHR is 7 feet tall. Not hard.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Good lord. Boston's gonna run out of bodies.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
"Money McGruder"
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
MONEY!!!
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
80 percent 3-point shooter
GPC all week: “We don’t have a pure perimeter shooter.”
LOL!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Upset alert in Stillwater
CU is playing much better than OSU.
Cate has thrown a pick and should have thrown at least three more.
0 for 6 on third downs, despite running it down CU’s throat in the first half.
Just had a field goal blocked.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Cate has yet to complete a pass.
wow..
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
So why are they even throwing?
The run was working!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
14-10 Buffs
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Wow...CU
scores to go up 14-10
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
Just like Texas so far
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Oh, and Little Hawk is back
Seesaw QB continues in Boulder.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Apparently Hansen hurt his hand.
who knew?
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
JamSam for 3
Yeah, it’s going our way.
TB - November 19, 2009
He's had one every game
Awesome.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Gotta love...
…seeing him find his confidence out there. That’s a huge weapon if he can stretch defenses like that.
TB - November 19, 2009
By the way, everyone...
…sorry for my complete absence lately. See the above exchange with Catfan33 and Bracket for the reasons.
TB - November 19, 2009
Completely understood.
Catfan33 - November 19, 2009
JHR = Honorary Puerto Rican!
10 points
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
HE CAN'T MISS!!!
MCGRUBER!!!!!!!!!!!!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Love me some
McGruder!!
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
I like having this outside presence. McGruder is sounding like a stud. keep that hand hot.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Big picture question
What’s with the slow starts? As long as we keep winning, it’s not a big deal, but we can’t keep coming out and sleepwalking in the first half, or we’re going to end up so far behind someone that we can’t make it up.
TB - November 19, 2009
Part of me thinks they're just bored with the low-level opponents
Tomorrow against Ole Miss, that changes.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
I hope...
…they can just turn it on, but I fear it’s going to take a loss before it sinks in.
TB - November 19, 2009
Yeah, that's sort of what I figured
Villanova will be more than happy to oblige us.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
By the way...
…you gotta like seeing this.
TB - November 19, 2009
Think that will be plastered all over the Star?
Yeah, doubt it.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Man, Sutton is a complete offensive liability right now
At some point, that’s gonna impact his minutes.
Approximately when the frosh start playing good defense.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
The free throws kill me...seriously...not hard.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
14 of 28
Jeez.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
I think I could do that drunk
TB - November 19, 2009
Is Ed Hightower calling this game?
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Sure seems like it
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Shudder
Basketball’s offseason is just long enough for me to forget certain things, and that’s one of them.
TB - November 19, 2009
Wow...I felt the thunder when Boyle said it was a monster jam.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Also, Mike Clark reminds me of the color guy from "Major League"
“Dynamite drop in, Monte. Those broadcasting lessons are really paying off.”
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
There really is no excitement in Mike Clark's world
TB - November 19, 2009
Mike Clark quote: "Boy, painting that room beige really spiced things up. Looks sharp."
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
LOL
You guys are merciless.
That’s why he’s such a good fundraiser. Never too high, never too low. Keeps an even keel, as it were. :-)
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
You can trust him with your money because you know he's not creative enough to embezzle.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
I don't dislike the guy at all...
…in fact, from everything I’ve heard, he’s a great guy. But man, he is even-keeled on the call.
TB - November 19, 2009
I don't have any issue with Clark...
However, it’s like sitting in your basement while your uncle tells you shit you already thought of but kept to yourself five minutes ago.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Monster jam from Jamar Samuels
I sure hope we keep hearing that this year.
TB - November 19, 2009
I really hope there is a way to see that later
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
JamSam
living up to his nick name
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
This deserves it's own open thread...
“Perkins is the reason why Nike will no longer do business with Kansas.”
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
I think that inspired a blog post
Stay tuned…
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Oh wait...there's more.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Link
Here.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
Anyone even still care about the game?
Just end this foul-fest already!
I’m ready to SEE the team, not just listen to a narration.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
This game is still on?
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
ESPNU, here we come
im ready to see it too. its not our fault their whistles will be broken. i hope they have diff refs tomorrow. this game has taken for forever.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
21-10 CU
Upset a-brewing!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Wow again...
CU scores again. OSU is terrible without Robinson. BTW, he’s lucky to be alive after that hit last week.
gw1754 - November 19, 2009
How can the Cowboys come back?
You have to throw now.
Crazy scenario. We beat NU and CU beats NU after beating OSU.
We’d be sole North champion and Hawk would save his job with a 6-6 bowl bid, all while Mangino and Perkins destroy each other.
Please, God, let this happen…
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
HAHA
i so hope that we win in Lincoln on saturday. one we have to and two we would have done eveything everybody said we couldnt do.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Yeah, all week it's been Nebraska this, Nebraska that
No one gives us a chance.
Starting to get that 2003 vibe. Desperate teams do crazy things.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
I guess a 45-yard Toston TD run is how they come back
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
80-70 Cats final
Man, what a terrible game. Thanks for nothing, refs. Go back to the States.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Rodney McGruder = Player of the Game
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
we are alive.
we live to play another day. hopefully we dont start as slow as we did in the first half against Ole Miss. Go Cats.
KSUfan4Life - November 19, 2009
Frank said pretty much the same thing
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
CU kicker just donked a kick off the upright
Would have made it a TD game. Ouch.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
And then OSU fumbles it right back to CU
Beautiful.
I think CU is gonna win. Let the insane weekend of upsets begin.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Toston does it again
OSU back on top.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
And CU immediately runs back the kickoff
Wow. Crazy game.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
I wish I had a .gif of #6 just falling down on that return.
Epic fail.
Panjandrum - November 19, 2009
And now time for the requisite Hawk meltdown
Save Hawk!
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
Thanks for the commentary
You guys really shine on your basketball commentary. Wasn’t able to listen to the game, but didn’t miss much. Anticipating great things this year, but I’m not ready to invest in BBall until after I’ve exhausted myself during football. Beat NU!
ohiocats84 - November 19, 2009
See you all tomorrow night
7:30 p.m. on ESPNU.
It’s a win-win even if we lose, because we’ll face either Dayton or Villanova in the final. Both are ranked and both will boost our RPI much more than any non-con team did last year.
BracketCat - November 19, 2009
A quick analysis...
If we want to continue to be successful on the season we need to average around .800 in free throw shooting. Take a look at almost any team that has made a run to the Final Four and that is the one thing that really stands out about this game…and the turnovers and lack of perimeter defense. Kudos to the multiple freshmen who hit all but one free throw to ice the game in the end.
Catbacker98 - November 20, 2009
I'm not real worried yet
We sucked at free throws last fall, too, but I don’t remember them costing us any game in the Big 12. Pretty sure we made most of them in Austin, for instance.
BracketCat - November 20, 2009
Not worried just an observation...
This game could have been salted early by making early free throws and we could have won by 20. Living in ACC country I can watch first hand how UNC and Duke put a lot of teams away early by making their free trips to the line count.
