This is not an excuse, but that game was played the day after the Jayhawks learned that sophomore forward Thomas Robinson's mother had died suddenly of a heart attack. The players were up all night crying with their teammate, and they grieved all morning without wanting to eat breakfast. The team was able to ride its emotions to a 15-point lead, but after that KU ran out of gas. Would Texas have made that comeback if the tragedy hadn't happened? We'll never know for sure, but I believe the answer is no.

  Before anyone goes crazy...let me say this:
  
  UT beat KU on our home court, they deserve the victory and it was a great victory for them. What I have been saying, was that it would not have happened if the team wasn't going through TRob's mothers death. I just can't wait til the big12 tourney, hopefully we get a rematch.

  I agree. Kansas is way better than the best, most complete team in the country.

  It's a good excuse and by excuse I mean it's logical that's why.
  
  But who's to say Texas doesn't win even if the kids mom doesn't die?

  Lol no he wasn't. But I did get a great laugh out of it.
• wildcats20

  

  Don't get me wrong, I think Kansas is a better team.
  
  But I also think Texas is a better team than Colorado and Nebraska.
• superman

  Let's look at the flip side. Maybe if the mom doesn't die, Kansas doesn't come out on an emotional high and they get housed by Texas at home.
