Ideal Big 12 Tourney Draw

[CTTB78]

Texas would be a great draw, and we've shown we can beat WV. TCU seems to be the team that has our number this year so I'm glad we might not have to face them in the second round.

I certainly think ISU could beat any of the teams that get the 7 seed, but playing WVU that next round would be tough.

I would have agreed with you but surprisingly we seem to handle the press very well

Just think playing back to back days with one against that WVU style could take a toll with the short bench.

Are we locked in to the 10th seed? I am guessing Okie St would own the tie breaker with their win over KU.

lets face it, making it to Thursday would be a big win, regardless who we would play in the quarters we would be at a pretty big disadvantage

Agreed.

Only TCU was eliminated as an opponent last night
So first round is either Texas, OU, OSU or Baylor
Every scenario I ran is OSU is a real long shot...

 

[CyTwins]

Please be Texas

I'd take OU. With them imploding they present the best opportunity for a first round upset.

Depending on how the last game goes, it might not even be an upset at that point.

Realistically, the only games I see going either way are ISU vs. OU, and KSU vs. BU.

I think KU is a lock over OSU, TTU is a lock over TCU, and WVU a lock over UT.

Assuming those are correct, here are the following scenarios:

ISU wins, KSU wins:

• (10)Iowa State vs. (7)Texas

OU wins, KSU wins:

• (10)Iowa State vs. (7)Baylor

ISU wins, BU wins:

• (10)Iowa State vs. (7)Texas

OU wins, BU wins:

• (10)Iowa State vs. (7)Oklahoma

 

[cyclonepower]

you think isu at ou is a toss up?

 

[ComCY]

you think isu at ou is a toss up?

Considering we beat them once, and they've completely fallen apart and just got destroyed within the last few days. Yes.

So the only way we get Texas is if he we beat OU? That sucks

Should be noted, from a really quick look, it appears as though if Texas beats WVU we'll play Texas (unless we beat OU and OSU beats KU...)?

 

[I-stateTheTruth]

Is Buena Vista an option?

 

[IlliniCy]

I think our ideal draw would be a quad-bye.

So according to that chart we have 47.7% chance to get Texas, 22.2% it will be Oklahoma, 17.4% Baylor and 12.8% Okie State
