We have KU in Austin, not up there.  

Yeah, I just mistyped on KU's schedule. I have it right on Texas' and then in the commentary below. My bad.

[Rickylovesweed 14,534]

I'm still thinking back to that no call at the end of the Oklahoma State and Kansas game. 

That could be the difference in the Big 12 this year. God's gift going to god's gift.

Holy shit, there are no conference officials in college basketball. They are all NCAA officials with contracts with multiple conferences.

Ok... Not expecting NCAA refs to be helpful for Horns this Monday... that crowd will be intimidating

My reward for spending the day with my in-laws was coming home to this and my dog taking a shit in the living room.

Dude, my old dog (14) is on permanent predisone, which has jacked her appetite through the roof.  I wake up to a "present" more days than not.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again:

Fucking gods gift

Would be awesome to play KU with a split clinched then send them packing.

Game could also be a “winner gets the last 1 seed” since Arizona and Tenn are choking it away

what's the KU tipoff time next month?  Anyone?  Bueller?

And people give me shit for being a Debby downer osu fan.  I lurk this thread a lot and don’t post much because superstition, but damn man 

I was already in a pissy mood before the game.  We’re probably just coming back down to earth, and you guys are playing really well.

Boynton definitely has Otz’s number.  I want no part of the Pokes in KC.

Very well could be what happens to my Pokes too, come right back down to earth…especially without our #2 player for the rest of the season.  Basketball doesn’t seem as streaky as baseball, but it’s not far behind.

Yeah from 1-4. I love Boynton too, but needs results. This is a super impressive run.

I saw a thing on Twitter after the game that noted we are now 7-1 in Big 12 games in which Cisse plays. The only game we lost that he’s played in was the 2-point loss at KU.

Yeah, Oklahoma State is a top 25 team with a fully healthy team. Just never happened with Cisse and now Anderson. 

[Wally Pryor 5,261]

Baylor's ball movement is just outstanding. 

[Hookem2147 21,345]

Kansas -2 @ Oklahoma State

Kansas State -1 @ OU

Vegas really doesn’t seem to believe in Kansas State the last few weeks.

If y'all could beat those cocksuckers I'd appreciate it. 

[Pancho 44,887]

I don’t think I’ve seen the top parts of GIA full in a very long time. 

[Js1 85,451]

Bryce Thompson is on fire and Jalen Wilson has 2 fouls 

[Okie State 3,821]

I don’t think I’ve seen the top parts of GIA full in a very long time. 

They were always full when I was there and it was fucking awesome. Wait...that was over 15 years ago...damn it.

[Pato del Muerto 52,539]

Would like home courts to hold here pls

Tony Allen ain't walkin through them doors. 

[Hookem2147 21,345]

Sure would be nice if Kansas dropped this one and then rebounded by beating Baylor Saturday.

John Luuuucas for three!

Ok State, y’all dumb 

[Wally Pryor 5,261]

No one should have to be exposed to those uniforms in the K-State / OU game.

Assault and battery on the eyes.

Erreybody still want CDC to go after Tang now? 2-5 in their last 7

[Al_4_ISU 12,474]

Fucking Kansas is going to win this because the rest of us keep losing to the bottom half of the league.

On the other side, is there an actual chance all 10 teams Dance?  Every Big 12 team would absolutely make the Dance if they were in any other league.

Bill Self knows you gotta beat the dregs to win the league. Everyone else keeps fucking that up. Gotta be just as motivated and prepared to beat Tech, OU and WV as you are to beat KU and Baylor

So same as it ever was, KU is going to win the league. Again.

Sunrise, sunset.

That really is his key though.  He doesn't lose bottom half road games, and his only home losses are to upper half teams, and they're quite rare.

[Hookem2147 21,345]

Sure would be nice if Kansas would have taken an L in Lawrence against OSU but the refs couldn’t be denied that day.

[MotownHorn 1,770]

I think we really need a Baylor W on Saturday. Other than us and Baylor, Kansas plays TCU, WVU, and Tech. That should be an easy 2-1, likely 3-0 for them.

I don't think anyone's winning in Phog.  Your best shot is to just keep pace and beat them in Austin to end the year.  Not sure what Texas's remaining slate looks like in terms of road wins, but I think you're KU's only remaining loss.

Texas still has TCU and Baylor on the road

That's tougher than our remaining road slate (KSU and Baylor).

They'll win a share. Texas is still contending for that but will need to beat KU in Austin now. 

[JWinTX 53]

12-6 is probably the most likely finish for the top teams in the league. Just too tough on the road against so many of these teams, especially if TCU gets healthy with Miles and Lampkin. My guess is that UT and KU finish 12-6, BU, 11-7, ISU 10-8, KSU, and TCU get to 10-8. OSU is 9-9. WVU has 5 games left and I think 8 regular season conference wins gets them into the Tournament, especially if they win their first game in the Big 12 Conference Tourney. I just don’t think OU or Tech have enough winnable games left to be anything more than a NIT team. 

[Hookem2147 21,345]

TCU might not reach 45 points tonight against Iowa State. That team is lost without Miles.
