Totally incidental.

If you drink once when JT is on the ground and drink twice when he makes someone else go to the ground, what is it when Tiller starts bleeding? Finish a bottle of 151?

This will get lost in the excitement of the Bowers finish
But what a great strip from Dixon underneath, and some pretty salty ballhandling from Tiller down the floor.
Best part of the play was Tiller's handling of the ball and attacking. Bowers was just gravy.

Alright, initial Trifecta...
…I got this from ESPN’s stats, which are sometimes really off, but initially it looks like…
1. Denmon 23.6
2. English 20.2
3. Ramsey 11.3
4. Tiller (?) 7.8
5. Safford 7.6
6. Bowers 5.4
7. Taylor 4.0
8. Moore 2.6
9. Dixon 1.4
And after his beyond horrible performance against ATM, MP3 didn’t see the court…
So the trifecta is Denmon-English-Ramsey. Your winner: nobody. If this were a skins game, we’d be carrying over the money for a third hole…

Damn Bill, you bring the jinx hard
11-1 run since you posted this.
In looking at our schedule
There’s not a single game on there that you see and say “they’re going to lose that one” outside of probably @KSU. Every single one of the last 7 is winnable by any stretch of the imagination. Here’s my estimation of the easiness of our last 8, ranked from easiest to hardest:
ISU
CU
@ISU
@NU
UT – might even be higher
@Baylor
KU
@KSU
So to get to 10-6, the mark needed to not be sweating at all on Selection Sunday a finishing of the 6-0 sweep is necessary as well as picking up one of the bottom 4 games above. It’s a lot easier to say after a W, but I feel pretty good about hitting 22-9(10-6) going into the Big 12 tournament.
Of course the second I check up on the Cobs vs Hawks game
Aldrich gets the And 1 dunk.
If you watch Jaws backwards, it's about a shark that throws people up until they have to open a beach.
And speaking of KU
seriously, what’s up with Xavier Henry? His conference stats don’t really scream “One and Done”

makes sense
there were maybe 5-6 guys across the court who would start with MIZ during free throws, then the ZOU corner would come back strong. pretty nice turnout- maybe 500+ mizzou fans. a lot more cu fans than normal, but they mostly left early
And in other good news....Richmond trounced #17 Temple
