Do we root for Baylor tonight?
-
@Kip_McSmithers Never thought I would say it either, but thank you Scotty
-
Log jam right behind us. And we got two of those 10-5 teams still on our schedule. Ain’t gonna be easy, boys better pack an extra lunch for these next three games.
-
Winning is our business. Our only business!!!
-
I decided I do want to win the BigXII, again!
-
@jaybate-1.0 Calling all great posters like you to start a thread on how to beat Texas. I always think the coaching staff maybe reading. Please flex your fingers and energize our TEAM. RCJH!

A Bear after a long night in Ames…rightly proudly howling for the Jayhawks to claim their crown.

My cousin’s at VT-Dook game.

The Clones have to end their season in Ft Worth. I think we’re in for a fitting end to the season. I have some good vibes coming from cowtown and the Frogs want to end the season on a strong note.

@jaybate-1.0 You didn’t think Seinfeld was funny? What about Curb your enthusiasm?

Baylor held Iowa State to just four points in the final 6:26, and its hot streak helped the Bears sweep the Cyclones for the first time.
TIP-INS:
Iowa State: This was the first loss to Baylor at home in 13 tries for the Cyclones…Dustin Hogue committed three turnovers in the first four minutes of the second half.
Baylor: The Bears were 7 of 13 on 3s in the first half but just 3 of 7 from the line. They led 40-37 at halftime…Coach Scott Drew used all of his second-half timeouts in less than 12 minutes.
UP NEXT
##Iowa State travels to Kansas State on Saturday.
##Baylor hosts West Virginia on Saturday.
OU has TCU who beat Tech tonight rather handily.
-
The guys need to focus on UT.
I know it’s a football speech, but it’s perfect for basketball too.
Strong speech
Why do I think of Mari as the guy who’s willing to die?
That’s a team.

@Crimsonorblue22 I think you or @Shanghai_RCJH should start a UT thread and let’s start some analyses.
-
Suddenly, attitudes toward the conference race seem to have rebounded!
-
Thank you Baylor- we needed some help.
-
@jaybate-1.0: Thank you, Mr. Gerber.
-
Any one still has any doubts about the strength of the conference? No question that on any given day any team can beat any other team. Hopefully the tough schedule and various styles of play will help conference teams in March.
-
The only time I will ever say this. Thank you Baylor and Scott Drew. Okay that’s over I hope that this thread helped the cause and helped some of us heal back to normal. Now we really control our destiny and just need to take care of business at home.
-
Baylor is a team that can get far in the tournament with its blend of 3 point shooting, odd defense and post players. I wouldn’t be surprised if they made it farther than any Big 12 team again depending on matchup. It’s not like we beat the pants out of them this year
-
Same kind of thing. Love Larry live. Love Larry in interviews and on paper. But Show makes me chuckle, not laugh. Know everyone loves it. Glad everyone loves. . But not in my funny spot. Same deal with Gary Shandling. I saw him live once and I laughed so hard I got as hernia. On TV, not funny. Newhart just the reverse. On TV = funny. Live = not funny. Go figure!!!
I’m a schmendrick! What zit mattuh?
-
Maybe the funniest line I ever read!!!
-
The tournament is all about match-ups…and a whole lot of luck. Most of the time is not as much about how good the other team is but how well it matches up.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Did you mean “all” or perhaps “partially”?
What role does pre-tournament coaching, tournament preparation, player skill, in-game adjustments, and continuity contribute?
-
Just a little hyperbole but not too far off. I am not saying that the other items do not count, of course they do; however, match-ups and luck have a big influence. Just close to home…look at KU in '88, it had no business winning the tournament and yet it did; on the other hand, how many KU teams that were clearly the best that season did not? I can think of a least 2 or 3. Look at the most recent season, KU against any other similarly seeded team other than Stanford (bad match up for KU) advances at least to the next round. Also, who would have predicted UConn winning the title? I will guess no ones, since they were a marginal/barely a top 25 team and yet they won with a good dose of favorable match-ups and a lot of luck. Remember…survive and advance. Just my opinion, no lectures please.
Correction: I apologize if I offended anyone’s sensitivities. Please feel free to lecture away; as always, I reserve the right to not reply.
-
@JayHawkFanToo What is the point of your last sentence? You can recognize, I hope, how that sort of comment is inflammatory, can’t you?
Regardless, I’m not going worry about whether your sensitivities are offended. I’ll lecture if I want, I’ll respond if I want – I’ll leave it to you to draw your line of acceptability. If you don’t like it, or can’t handle an interaction because it gets too rough, then don’t participate. But making admonishments in advance is a bit silly.
-
It was simply a polite request, I did say please, right? …and there you went with your lecture anyway. I rest my case.
-
If you two gents will meet me for a beer summit-I’ll buy.
-
@JayHawkFanToo Enjoy life. Smile.
