...that Tech game has more missed bunnies and unforced turnovers than Ive seen since I saw a 7th grade Oklahoma junior high girls game...

But this OSU-OU game...20 pts for OU at HALF..and they had to make a run.to get there..but.only down 6..OSU not impressing the committee.

I keep wanting to say Ok State belongs in the tournament. Maybe they pass the metrics, but WOOF. They sure don't pass the eye test. Every game I watch of them is clank, clank, clank, clank, clank, clank.

If he's offered the Notre Dame job, Moser should tuck and run as fast as he can to South Bend.

Fran doing the morning session tomorrow (our game included) and the semi's. Doesn't get to do the Final. ESPN bumped him for Dick Vitale.

Bill Self to miss game due to possible heart attack or stroke.

No problems for KU. They blowout WVU.

The way they described it, I assumed it was one of those two

And of course those two things happening a lot lately to people we've heard of

Because 60-year-olds in high-stress professions never had blood pressure or heart issues before 2021.

I'm not one to carry water for pharmaceutical companies, but this nonsense is getting silly.

Horns without their best big cruise to a double digit win over the Ok State clankers. Outrebounded the Horns 45-32. Then wasted every one of them with clank after clank. 27% from the field and 15% from 3.

Except fot the last 5 minutes of the last game with us?

Clanked it for 35 minutes against us and then the skies opened and divine intervention set in.

Unfortunately for them, it went away as fast as it came.

That KSU/TCU game last night was a real dogfight (until TCU starting to pull away in the 2nd half). Huge blocks, lots of fast break opportunities, battling for rebounds, timeouts to deal with blood.

So basically nothing like any of our games the last...well, all season really.

Kansas wins over Iowa St by double digits. Iowa St commits 22 turnovers against KU's D.

ISU is atrocious offensively, we just make them look all world

I keep going back to that boxscore and being astonished at 44-17. And the 21 offensive boards. It's mindboggling.

Just a soft team, that's going to offend the usual suspects but that's the reality this year

Ku manhandles Iowa st and we can't even hold these guys under 70. Worst offense in the big 12 worked us multiple times.
DanaDane

I really have no idea what I'm gonna do with Texas and TCU in my brackets. TCU has all the different lineups that should (and I emphasize SHOULD) be able to match up with a lot of teams, but they just go through horrendous offensive spells that makes them untrustworthy to bet on unless Miles is really on.

Texas is somewhat similar. I think they have a good team, but I think they're like us in that their team mix leaves them really susceptible to a bad matchup.

Soft may be harsh, maybe not. But we certainly haven't played with an edge like we have in the past.
IowaBear
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Lack of edge like you mentioned may be the better wording.

We have snipers.

We have nobody that can smash you in the mouth.

Every elite team needs an enforcer. We got nothin

Horns win.

Regular season 1st and 2nd place teams make it to the Final, so it's hard not to say they are the 2 best teams in the conference.


Please tell me the Horns aren't gonna win the Big 12 tournament. Please!

Got a feeling KU is going to win another B12 Tourney and they probably aren't even that fired up about it. Must be nice.
Robert Wilson
How long do you want to ignore this user?
That's what I was gonna say

Kansas seems to cope with it pretty well
Quinton

I agree. Their success along with Bu's is very very matchup dependent. Tex is hard to get a handle on the last several years. Decent to good teams that are just missing... something. Can't always put the finger on what it is. This year they have a much more seasoned team than most so I think they could finally make it past round 1/2.

Tourney is always matchup dependent but this year will be that X10. The only teams I had any confidence in playing and winning multiple styles were early season UConn and healthy Ucla. That UConn team is still dangerous but cooled off considerably. Ucla lost the best defender in the conference and one of their better athletes. I was very high on them throughout the year. Ku to a lesser extent as they have some limitations. Alabama as well.. they are much better than they were in Nov/Dec. Uh is a wildcard as every game against solid athletes with size is a wire to wire type game.

Texas has a 20 point lead over Kansas with a few minutes to go. Texas has scored the last 6 points & Jayhawks are looking kinda the way we looked at the end of the game Thursday.

You might want to go watch a movie and stay away from the scores the rest of the evening.

I made the mistake of tuning into the ACC Championship too soon and got to see them celebrating.

This was really their first earned B12 Tourney Championship. The one in '21 should have a giant asterisk by it explaining they only had to win two games because they got a forfeit win against KU in the semis because of the Covid hysteria.

Might be some sweet revenge in the tourney after owning us in the regular season. We shall see.

Just Win Baby!!!!
