I love all the great shots of the Baylor campus. We are fortunate to have a beautiful campus.

I don't say it often enough -- we are BLESSED to have Scott Drew and his staff. This was yet another remarkable job. Without Cryer, Flagler and JTT, we should have gotten our *** kicked today and yet we're somehow going to win by double digits. What an effort by this team.

Barring a miracle we're going to win but the double digit Thing is now up in the air.

Hell of a win today. This team deserves a lot more credit than it's gotten for the way it's handled adversity this season. I have never seen a season impacted by so many injuries, and yet it's Feb. 19 and we're 22-5 overall and 10-4 in Big 12 play. Pretty damn impressive.

First, I agree with your overall point.

But I think today also showed how special our two freshmen are. They were the two best players on the floor today and played like veterans in a tough situation.

I hope some of those who have beaten on KB's game in every thread show up here and acknowledge how pivotal he was on both ends of the floor today.

They won't. They crawl back in their mom's basement after every win, come on and attack our players and coaches after every loss.

It's amazing (and unfortunate) how dead this place gets after wins. We've gotten really spoiled as a fan base.

It's no different then the arena itself. We're 22-5 and we had what 6k there today if that? It sure seemed empty in TV with a big rival in town you'd think we could at least get the Ferrell 80% full on a consistent basis

It was sure nice to win but my takeaway was that TCU looked awful. That game was never really competitive. That was as close as you get to a day off in the Big 12. It was the type of game where having two "one and dones" seals it for you. Maybe OSU won't show up, and we'll get 2 in a row.

We had a lot to do with that. They had so much trouble getting open shots in the first half that on the rare occasions they had them, they rushed and missed them. We had them spooked with our length on defense.

Announced was 10,028. Actual was maybe closer to 9k-9500. Not quite as much as last week. Student section was full. Toads looked like they brought a bus load or two. Top 3-4 rows had a few empties but otherwise pretty full.

Looked much more sparse on TV then. Of course that can be misleading

It was full. Very few empty seats

It's disgusting that a number of fans leave early. Disrespectful to the team.
