Musings at the mid-week:
- The sellout Monday in Bramlage Coliseum “helped us win the game. They energized our guys.’’
- You know by now the visiting coach, Bill Self of Kansas, said this.
- The compliment was gracious enough, though delivered with a bit of a backhand.
- Self realizes the atmosphere in Bramlage for any KU visit is stirring and salty.
- When chants are laced with a certain expletive that demeans KU, the Jayhawks are motivated to respond.
- College kids hear worse. Say worse. A team with key veterans, though, can, as Self put it, draw energy from such derision.
