Elite 8 - The U vs Kansas

[Go Canes!!]

**** of a run, proud of our guys!

Kansas is a heck of a team, don't get that twisted, but this second half has been full of cats not knowing their role nor their strengths. We got cats trying to shoot when that is not their game and where the heck is McGusty? I know where, watching Wong and co. try to be shooters.

Do you not see them hedging and trapping mcgusty every time he touches the ball?

 

[Hold My Beer]

This is still the best season we've ever had.

Man, didn't we go undefeated from 1972 through 1984?

 

[Canedude08]

I wouldn't be as annoyed with this, had I felt as if Miami got a fair shake in this game. They didn't. AT ALL.

 

[Brometheus]

Great season but can't help be feel disappointed with this 2nd half of basketball. Team basically threw in the towel the second Kansas made a run

Just hurts to lose like this. Sometime I hate that my emotional well being is so directly tied to the Canes.

This is what has made the last 20 years of football do miserable

This is still the best season we've ever had.

Winning the ACC was very close.

Kansas has shot 24 free throws and we’ve shot 9. They’re probably a better team but there was a lot of hacking of our guys that the refs tolerated and on our side the complete opposite.

 

[JD08]

Mostly names I’ve never seen in here during the regular season

Guilty. I rarely watch basketball.

 

[WndyCityCane]

Only disappointed because we played our worst game in a long time. Careless, guys taking shots that shouldn't be shooting the ball etc. Was a great ride. Won't even watch any more of the tournament just hope Duke loses. Go Canes.

Worst half. We were the better team for the first 20 minutes today.

Same buddy, same. Sometimes follow game on espn app so I don't watch and freak out

Sure, but we got ZERO recognition for it.

 

[AboutTheU05]

I’m really not much of a college basketball guy (felt draft rules have destroyed the sport) but I gotta give props to the team for the run they made. I certainly didn’t expect it, and they made this tournament interesting for me for the first time in years.

My hats off to them……great season.

 

[Calinative]

Honestly this is the effect getting in foul trouble early causes for a team that has no depth.
We put subs in, KU forces those subs to make plays, they don't, then sprinkle in a few turnovers, and the opposing team hitting a shot or two and the momentum completely changes from there. And once you have all the momentum its like a snowball rolling down a mountain... And with that momentum our guys get cold and theirs heat up.

 

[dodaniels]

How in the **** we don’t have a bench

You must be new to Miami basketball

 

[canester95]

Think KU wins it all? Until today, I though possibly but with their free throws and cold streaks, not as sure. Granted, an almost perfect adjustment in second half but some issues for sure.

For what it’s worth. Kansas blows in every other sport. Basketball is it for them. Nova also matches up well with them.

That’s fine. New posters are welcome. You’re not dumping on the team when they’re down.

 

[jhtheking]

It’s time for coach L to retire and turn the team over to Someone else. I am elated what he has accomplished, but he also handcuffed this team bye not getting bigs and never have a bench.

How can you be this dumb?

 

[cf3000]

Winning the ACC was very close.

For sure, that was sweet. But this is the Elite 8
