he just sat down.  he didn't slip.

25-19 in fouls isn't a big difference.

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

He sat down to make a point.

already said it....it's not the quantity.  It's when and how the fouls were called.  there's no onus to call it 50-50.

Refs repeatedly bailed out WVU on questionable calls.

 

Whatever...

The worst optic was the foul on the tt white tatoo man that unfortunately had an opponent draped all over him.

Love that he went over to the WVU coach and gave him a dap. He's class all the way around

Anyone know the last time someone went winless in Big 12 play?

TCU 2013-2014

A&M in 2003-2004 and Baylor 1998-1999 did so as well, but that was before the double round-robin format

Looking forward to adding to that illustrious history!

Who cares, Bowlsby is a fucking clown.

[Js1 85,316]

As of today, Big 12 has 5 of the top 16 seeds

Fuck Baylor.

Ok State-KSU on ESPNU but OU-WV on ESPN+? A travesty

OT in Morgantown 

[Dirk X West 772]

It's a little harder to win when you don't get to shoot 39 FTs.

[ChiTownDoc 21,152]

Big 12 AD's signed agreement allowing espn to put top 15 matchups exclusively on espn+.  I'm trying to confirm but this dumbass conference would do just that.  WTF?

WV has definitely had some home cooking from refs today - I wouldn't bitch except they just got home cooking with the refs AT tech.  Assholes.

2OT

Gooners win 91-90 in 2OT

Score one for the good guys.  Jokes aside, WV gets a billion calls.  Everyone on OU with 4 or 5 and their big man got his first foul in second OT?  Also about 10 over the backs not called on rebounds. Another key offensive rebound their guy shuffled the puppies and no travel call.  It's like they're getting the KU treatment.  Fuck that shit. 

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

OU sweeps WVU
WVU sweeps Tech
Tech sweeps OU

We love the Big 12

Something like that happened in football this one time.  I think Texas was involved.

and in Morgantown vs Tech

[ChiTownDoc 21,152]

Lon is criminally underrated.  Not bad for a football school.  

[Machinator 32,099]

 

[Js1 85,316]

So Baylor has Covid "problems" for like, the 7th time all season, get 6 games off, including WV and Tech, and they get to come back to play.... conference winless ISU.

The Big 12 is REALLY making sure they have a 1 seed, at all costs.

You think the Big 12 did Baylor a favor by postponing the TCU game?

If you aren't Oklahoma State or a bottom dweller we aren't threatening anyone this year.

I'm sure they'll appreciate having the walk ons in by the end of the first half.

I meant Tech.  

[Machinator 32,099]

 

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

Tech is just completely out of sorts now, it's cringy as fuck to watch.

[Guest]

Tech kept chipping away. Got within 3 late...

Kansas out physicalled them. No answer for McCormick.  Kansas shut down McClung. Period.  Jayhawks played their asses off on the defensive end overall.

Defense still isn't right for Beard's crew.  Showed glimpses of it late with the press.  The room for improvement is reason for optimism, I guess, given the coaching and talent.

[Js1 85,316]

It ain’t easy to shut down McClung. 

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

Tech is getting absolutely mauled by the officials again in Stillwater. I guess they didn't like Beard's act.

[Guest]

The only call I really had a problem with was not calling the charge on OSU on their possession when they went up 2 at the end of regulation.  Straight up charge.  Benson was set.

[Guest]

Gorilla ball.

 

Fuck this bullshit.

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

OSU was up 4-0 in fouls to start the second half, they've been in the double bonus since 11 minutes remaining and have 7 total fouls, including overtime. What an absolute fucking joke.

[Brian Fantana 6,685]

This shit is unreal. I could have counted on one hand the number of times in my entire life I thought officiating actually changed the outcome of a game of college basketball before this season, and I can point to at least 3 of Tech's games this year alone.

[Js1 85,316]

OSU is solidly in now
