College basketball fans react to BYU taking down Kansas Jayhawks in Allen Fieldhouse
BYU upset the Kansas basketball team 76-68 to give the Jayhawks their first home loss of the season. It was a poor all-around performance as the team squandered another double-digit lead. In a season filled with ups and downs, KU might be at its lowest point right now.
As one might expect after a loss this bad, social media (especially Twitter) had tons of reactions. It isn't every day that the home team loses in the "Cathedral of College Basketball." Here are some of the best reactions from online users.
I'm sorry, but this is yet another embarrassing loss for Kansas this year. This team just isn't as good as we're all used to. It sucks being mediocre

I hope all the donors are happy with their NIL dollars going towards Hunter Dickinson

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Kansas is vulnerable with a healthy Kevin McCullar.

Without him, the Jayhawks won't reach the second weekend of the NCAA Tournament. https://t.co/dz6vu0pkWV
Eery at this point.

- Both preseason No. 1
- Both started 12-1
- Dedric is Hunter
- Grimes is Elmarko
- Moore is Timberlake
- Agbaji is Furphy
- Vick leaving = McCullar injury
- Lousy on the road, great at home

Worst Kansas team since 2018-19 if not in the last decade.

Can't win if you only make 4 shots in that stretch and have Dickinson shoot 40 percent from the line https://t.co/oCDnHs8En0
Kansas Jayhawksβ¦

Kansas was previously 71-0 when leading at halftime at home.
Unbelievable
Never watched worse refs than at Kansas. Unbelievable. I kinda liked Kansas until we played against them. A team with a bunch of four and five stars canβt beat a bunch of white dorky Mormons without refs calling a million fouls?

FYIβ¦ Kansas Basketball is a fraud β¦ Wow they lose and they will drop 1 or 2 spots in the polls π€¦

Kansas been too inconsistent. they look like a different team every game
β Luis Alvarez (@RawwHoneyy) February 28, 2024
Kansas Jayhawks lose to BYU because someone can't shoot free throws. Get the ball out of the palm of your hand, it's not a shot put. Come on guys. Basic fundamentals. Where's Tim Duncan?
β Otee44 (@otee44) February 28, 2024
Maybe recruit some athletic BIGS. Dickinson is so horrible. Canβt even jump more than 2 inches. This loss underscores how MEDIOCRE Kansas is now in hoops. NIL & xfer portal has basically made a piss poor 3 point team like KU not even a top 25 team.

Wired: This 2024 Kansas Jayhawks basketball team have been gracious in welcoming the new four to the Big 12
Throw this Kansas team in the trash they as not making any noise in March
β Henny π§ͺ (@lilpipecleaner) February 28, 2024
The loss dropped Kansas' record to 21-7, giving the Jayhawks their sixth conference loss of the season. Claiming a share of the Big 12 regular season title is completely out of the question, and we might be watching one of the worst teams Bill Self has ever coached in Lawrence. They will take the court again this weekend vs. Baylor in Waco.
