Question: Will the B12 get 4 or 5 teams in the tourney? Do the Clones get in with their horrid conference record? Ditto for OU. Does TCU have a shot?

@Texas-Hawk-10 Here is a very good sheet that the author describes as " latest BracketMatrix projections and compare to current Pomeroy and Massey Composite rankings to give a snapshot of who's looking dangerous and who's looking overrated based on current projections."
It shows us as being listed as a 1 seed, while his numbers show us as a solid 2 seed. It also shows teams that appear to be underseeded, and overseeded. Here's a link:

@jayballer67 I like that idea. Fresh legs at this time of the year goes a long ways.
@jayballer67 He was a center for TCU.
@approxinfinity Wasn't that beautiful the way it turned out?
@jayballer67 Even though he's not going to be back this weekend, sounds like he could return.
Remy coming back? So you're telling me there's a chance-
@rockchalkwyo Could we get him a G.E.D. like...right now? They put young brilliant kids in universities all the time- shouldn't being taller than a tree and brilliant on the court qualify? I would volunteer to move to Lawrence and be his chauffeur if need be.
@BeddieKU23 2012-2013 is right up there with 1996- 1997 as the worst losses in history. Or, I should say...in my history.
@BeddieKU23 The article is fine. The header is at best misleading.
On the CBS Sports site, the header says " Tech sweeps Baylor, takes control of B12 race". Talk about fake news.
Watching Baylor/Tech, and Little man Fran is babbling away. He's just as obnoxious as he is in our games. They showed Pat Mahomes, and you see in the background Little man cocking his head, and smirking like a cat eating s*** as he flaps his gums. Definite small man complex.
It's always nice the day after a Kendiana loss. Rump Rafters is a dumpster fire today...lol.
@BShark I hope he works on his jumpshot. He looked very good the beginning of the year...
One of the shot clocks at the OU game wasn't working, so the announcer started counting down the shot clock.
Remy dreams die hard. I'm at phase 3 of the KUbler- Ross 5 stages of grief- I'm at the bargaining phase.
I think Remy comes in and helps our offense move. When he is healthy, his drives open up the floor for Och, CB, and Jalen. Now, that doesn't mean he would play much, but I think it would be great if he could come in and win a game or two in the tournament for us.
Then what happens?
Does he actually make it back?
If he does... is that end of the Joe experiment?
Does that mean no more 39 minute games for Harris?
Does it help us, or does it throw us off?
Zac is a bad ass. I tweeted him when he first signed, and he tweeted back, which was surprising. So happy he was the first big off the bench last night. Unleash the...ZACKKEN!
@Kcmatt7 Let's win all 6 and remove any doubts who the best team in B12 is.
What's wrong with Braun's shot....ooops...wait a sec....
@BeddieKU23 He got zached...
@jayballer67 What he said. Me likey...
we've gone NERD and we're LOVING it
throw that shjit down
FREAKING LOVE ZACH
Get them white terry cloth robes to wear when they're out of the game...
@approxinfinity Jammy shorts....ok...
I hope they burn those unis after the game.
Dave comes ALIVE
@RockChalkinTexas said in Oklahoma State Game Thread:
Are we the only fans wearing masks?
I admit- I'm not wearing a mask.
@BShark LMAO!!!
@DanR I would put it in the Top 20 of Bill's teams since he's been here.
gym shorts for P.E....
@Kcmatt7 True that.
Not digging those. They look like Silo Tech rejects.
Just found out the game was at 8 pm. Cool beans. Was going to have to wait to take the little lady out for grub because on V day- now I can do the early bird special, and still not miss the game. It'll be a little like when I was in Florida, and I would see seniors eating dinner at 3:30 in the afternoon...lol.
@Texas-Hawk-10 I agree with Yes playing along side Harris, but that's when our 3 wings end up biting us. We can't bench OCH, Braun, or Wilson. I hope after this year we can get back to playing two guards, two wings, and a big.
I've been trying to think how this team can be better this year, and have come up with 3 things that could potentially make us a better team. Feel free to put your 3 things in, and we'll solve the world's problems in one fell swoop:
1- Stop letting Och inbound the ball. It. doesn't. work. well. He just doesn't anticipate the pass very well, many times it's a weak throw...it's just not his thing. Braun was a point guard, and is taller than OCH, and frankly we could use Och's athleticism on the court alot more during pressure situations.
2- Play Joe more- play Harris less. Look, I'm not anti-Juan. I think he has a significant role, and he is beneficial to our success in many ways. But that's way too many minutes (39). On the other hand, Joe got a whole 4 minutes for the whole game. Juan was completely gassed at the end of the game, and Joe never got a chance.
3- Get Zach into the game for at least 20 minutes every game from now on. No more Mitch. Dave is hurt- he is a shell of himself from last year. Give every second of time that Dave isn't out there to Zach. Zach is an Alpha. Maybe he's just too young to know any better, but he didn't flinch on that 3 attempt. The game was on the line, and he shot that ball like he didn't have a care in the world. I think there's something special about him. We need dudes that want to step up on this team badly. Plus, it was really nice having one of our Bigs hit a 3 for once.
It's so easy to coach from the peanut gallery...lol. What's your 3 things list?
@drgnslayr "Dave’s feet almost cost us a victory today. It had to be shown by putting Zach in, with his nimble feet, to guard the trey line from Groves continuing to burn us."
Dave had foot surgery in the off-season. He is limping. His foot has been bothering him all year.
"How can Dave take another year and improve his game considerably? As I’ve been saying all along… his biggest deficit is his feet."
Agreed. An injury to your foot can have devastating effects on your game. I think another year where Dave is injury free would yield completely different results. There was no better big man in the conference last year, when he was healthy.
@jayballer67 I found the slow mo replay to be so bad I had to look away, which doesn't happen very often.
We miss FTs because he doesn't use his bench, and all our starters are gassed...
Zach in the starting lineup.
We almost choked it away...
MAKE THE FREE THROWS
@benshawks08 I can't think of anyone in college basketball worse...
Now, let's convert...
@benshawks08 Of all time? Does that include pee wee basketball?
Zach Attack!
Take Jalen off of Goldwire. That was a bad idea. Dave keeps overhelping and gets out of position to defend against Groves. OCH is MIA. This is a hot mess...
