Ouch, That Hurt

Monday night.  KSU 84, KU 68.  I didn't see that coming.  KSU had been playing so poorly that even their most ardent supporters have recently jumped off the Wildcat bandwagon.  They may be jumping back on after Jacob Pullen's 38 point career best performance.  KSU deserved the win.  It has been a long time since they have been that impressive, and probably a very short time until they again experience another depressive low.  For this brief high, I am happy for them and their fickle fans. 

But then again, it was just one game in a series of disappointing performances that are likely to continue.  And it was a home game for them.  And it was their last attempt of doing anything memorable this season.  And if Pullen plays to his scoring average, they lose. And KU still holds a 44-4 record aginast the Wildcats in modern history.  But it still hurts.

Maybe KU will get the opportunity for revenge during the Big 12 tournament.  If not maybe the NCAA tournament.  Oh yeah, KSU won't be in that tournament.  Too bad.
