Thursday Tourney Chat
-
@DanR According to the announcers earlier, ISU was the Big 12 champs. They ignored it was a tournament.
-
Dukes candy land road to the final four just got easier
-
@Crimsonorblue22 Could be.
-
Happy for Haase, but sad that Big12 takes another beating in the tournament. Have to do better to justifybthe best conference talk. Wish ND was the #3 that went down.
-
@FarSideHawk can’t root against our own! Lots of espn guys picked ISU to go far!! Go Baylor!! So sad ISU, NOT
-
This is why I didn’t want us to be a 3. Far too many 14s have won.
-
@brooksmd They call that tournament the “Big 12 Championship” which is pretty stupid considering the big 12 also promotes the One True Champion. My misery nephew was wearing 2012 Mizzou big 12 champions sweatshirt the year they won the tournament (KU won the conference by 2 full games) and I’m sure ISU fans were all wearing theirs today when they watched the clones choke again.
-
I find that a bit stupid as well. Then every conference could claim one true champion…
-
Georgia St. is making Big12 folk a little nervous right now.
-
@wissoxfan83
Just goes to show it’s all about the match ups.
-
Alright you sunnsabitches, I’m supposed to be getting some work done, and I can’t.
-
@jaybate-1.0 You’re too old to work you old fart.
-
HOWLING
-
In about 1996 it started to snow on the Wednesday night before the tourney and didn’t stop until the Friday morning of the tourney.
Those were the two best snowdays I’ve had in my 22 years of teaching!
-
@wissoxfan83 Speaking to teaching, ain’t you supposed to be in the classroom doing that.
-
Looks like Baylor finally pulled their head out and will be moving on unless Ga St goes on a tear.
-
Is this Rick’s last game?
-
Uh, the ISU loss doesn’t help that Big 12 tourney resume.
-
Wouldn’t surprise me. The winds of change seem to be blowing. The state of Texas is becoming a hot recruiting bed for basketball. The days of we just care about football maybe coming to end, as well as Barnes tenure as HC of the Texas Basketball team.
-
Faylor is making it interesting. Will piss poor FT% do them in?
Come on Big12! Pull your heads out.
Will these close calls to our fellow conference boys wake up the Hawks???
-
UT went on a run to end the half only down 2. Down by as many as 11. I picked Butler to win.
-
Press has Baylor unnerved
-
@Kip_McSmithers They beat it at WV???
-
@RockChalkinTexas won all three games
-
Ga St, I don’t want it, here you do something with it. .
-
@brooksmd amazing shot. Too bad it’s another big12 victim
-
Unbelievable.
-
Love the Madness.
-
Really bad afternoon for the big12. Both number 3s have crapped out.
-
Too bad for the Big 12 right now. Baylor players just smiled after that 3 went in walking off the court. WOW!
-
Teaching? oh, that’s what all these kids are doing in this room.
-
Big 12 0-2 so far. TX could make it 0-3.
Takes the shine off of XI straight to be honest.
-
14s over 3s is the new 12s over 5s
-
But the way the tourney works, if we can get one team to the Final Four, our conference is vindicated. Who has the best chance? OU?
-
Joe Lunardi tweet: Big 12 can’t lose every game can it?
-
Answer: No.
Reason: Because thankfully we don’t have a team in every game. Otherwise my answer would be yes!!
-
@HighEliteMajor Wouldn’t it be sweet if WVU busted Kensucky in the chops?
-
@brooksmd – As long as UK went down. Heck, I’d root for MU against UK right now. In theory, I mean, if MU was in the tournament.
-
-
Texas down 8 with 9 minutes left…
-
@JayHawkFanToo I know! Is this a sign of how biased we all are of the Big 12? Everyone was saying we have the best conference nationally I suppose. I’m scratching my head at these games.
-
I wish the Big XII wasn’t falling apart. Nationally, everyone thinks it’s KU and a bunch of stiffs. This isn’t helping.
-
The conference ranking is largely based on the non-con schedule and the Big 12 had by far the toughest non-con schedule and best non-con record.
I have numerously posted here that the NCAA is a crap shoot with the match-ups offsetting the records. As Valvano said,survive and advance…and hope you don’t get a bad match-up.
-
@JayHawkFanToo But they did win the SEC Football Weak Division before they got their butts handed to them by Bama. They’d be a nothing in the West Div but a door mat.
-
Kansas and Oklahoma scored more in a half in 1988 than Texas and Butler are going to score in the entire game.
-
Huge 3 there. Ugly game. Barnes should be packing his office up Monday. A team with this much talent shouldn’t be an 11 seed and getting bounced in first round.
-
Looks like Texas is next, down by 5 with under 1 minute left…
-
@JayHawkFanToo And they Can’t Be In the CBI. But hey, they’re wrestling for a national title this weekend. Bunch of grapplers. Sweaty guys, and all.
-
Look on the bright side. The Big12 won’t piss us off this evening…
-
You mean that sport in which sweaty grown mean in tights roll on the floor grabbing each other??? Eeewww…
