Other Games Tonight
-
@dylans Gonzaga does not have a football program which is required for membership in both the PAC 12 and Big 12. BYU basketball is in the WCC because the Mountain West wouldn’t let BYU stay as a non football member.
Gonzaga is already in the highest profile conference in the western part of the U.S. they can be in. The only option really would be the Big East, but the logistics of that would be really bad for Gonzaga because the closest Big East program currently is Creighton which is about 1400 miles and 2 time zones away.
-
Gonzaga has considered jumping conferences before in the past, nothing new here. Their conference was ranked 8th this year. Not much they can do but hope other programs within the conference continue to improve themselves. BYU has too many restrictions and too many that go on missions to stay competitive. Saint Mary’s has done the best they can with their niche. It is what it is for Zaga. Not their fault
-
@Texas-Hawk-10 I was not really looking for that very hypothetical proposition! If I were them, I would be proposing a basketball only arrangement with the Pac12. Like, why not? Their schedule gets more challenging if they do. But as others have said, I doubt that would happen too.
As for the strength of their current conference I can’t even tell you who they play in that league. I’m quite sure BYU, I know St. Mary’s is too, maybe San Diego State, Nevada? I know I can look it up but that ruins the point. I know the strong conferences because right now I could name every SEC, BIG, ACC, Big12 team without barely thinking about it. The others start to get muddled in my mind like the BigEast and the AAC. I do know the Ivy league teams too!
-
@wissox WCC has Gonzaga, St. Mary’s, BYU, San Francisco, Loyola Marymount, Santa Clara, San Diego, Pepperdine, Pacific, Portland (listed in order of current standings). According to the WCC website, the only WCC Men’s Basketball NCAA Championships were won by San Francisco in 1955 and 1956.
-
TCU just blew a 21 point lead in 16 minutes. Tie game 38 seconds left
-
TCU hangs on 73-70, OSU took their first lead with 26 seconds left. Bane then drill a 3, Waters missed a pull up and Robinson canned 2 free ones to seal.
-
Oklahoma lost to Huggy Bear. Sorry Lon your group doesn’t belong in the tourney. Interested to see where their bubble hopes lie after that
-
@BeddieKU23 another reminder of how trash the bubble is.

For Power 5 yes.
I would love to see the Belmont’s, Limscomb’s of the world in. Happens every year though. The tourney has to have the crap 7-10 ACC and Big-10 teams in
-

what a surprise. - - ROCK CHALK ALL DAY LONG BABY
-
Wv crushing TT in assists and boards thus far.
-
Two things:
-
It’s hard to believe the West Virginia team I’m watching tonight is 13-19.
-
Texas Tech does not look interested in winning the Big 12 tournament.
-
-
So is Fran waiting to suit up to be shaka cheerleader tonight
-
Tech looks like us on the road.

Not anymore.
-
McCabe just shook tech. They didnt know what happened
-
@BeddieKU23 That was some shit. I’d be mad if I were a Tech fan.
-
Did you watch their reaction it was like they thought a foul was called and the shot didnt count. Unreal
-
So, uh, that wasn’t a goal tend eh?
-
Tech now starting to look like the previous 14 years of KU. GRITTY
-
Game. Blouses.
-
Culver is a baller
-
Huggy is ready to blow a gasket
-
Pretty amazing how bad talent evaluators can be to miss on Culver and Morant from same class
-
Wow Culver may have just lost them this
-
WOW
-
Same guy that beat ku
-
Kids unreal
-
I didn’t think there was much there on that foul call.

There is a reason that the guys running the services aren’t scouts for an NBA team.
-
That’ll do pig.
-
Really impressed with WVU tonight. Look like a different team.
-
Jeez what a bad shot
-
Niceeeeeee

Great break for KU but honestly Texas is a bad match-up so hopefully they aren’t thinking about tomorrow already…

Playing in the same building directly after the game doesn’t help that a lot.
-
WVU has looked like the best team in KC today…so far, looking at you Jayhawks lol
-
-
So I mean I hate Syracuse but it would be hilarious if they could beat Duke.
-
KState players are just running into ISU players without being called for a foul. Iowa St should already be in the double bonus but KState only has 5 fouls.
Iowa St, meanwhile, has been whistled for 2 ticky-tack moving screens.
-
Bruce Weber is a poor man’s Bob Huggins and his teams are only good when the officials allow them to be.
-
ISU falling all over themselves now. Refs suck again too.
-
That foul on Cam Lard for standing was one of the worst calls I’ve ever seen.
-
Cyclones need some buckets!
-
K st lead up to 5
-
Look I wanted them to win. If we win tonight it’s going to be a big time game. A type of game that will get this Kansas team with something to really play for
-
Officials tonight wanted them to win too so it looks like we might get it.
-
Not yet
-
Unreal
