***2022-23 MBB General Thread***

If OU hangs on against TCU, the lower standing Big 12 team will be 3/3 today, with a very real possibility of going 5/5. That would be appropriate.
OU is not a bad team. In any other conference they would be a tournament team. It wouldn't surprise me if they made some noise in the Big 12 tournament. If they won it, the Big 12 would have all 10 teams in the big dance.

I think Fran was right when he said OU would be mid-pack in the Big 10. Just a ridiculously, historically good Big 12 this year.

Final in Morgantown. WVU over KSU 89-81. Based on final games, current scores, and predicted winners here is what the Big 12 tournament bracket is looking like. Credit to MReds bracket generator.

We’ve beaten them twice by double digits. I don’t really buy the ‘hard to beat a team three times’ nonsense. We matchup well with them. Rather them than Texas and KSU imo. We will own the arena with fans again baylor.
That’s fair. Moreso than the 3 times in a season, I’m more concerned about playing a top 10 team back to back after just crushing them. Feel like there will be some revenge motivation there.

But, you got to play who you got to play, at the end of the day

Wilson for Kansas gets stopped, rotates on his pivot foot, plants his off foot around the player, pulls pivot foot and jumps off off foot and scores. Showed in slow motion replay. Dickie V, "what awesome footwork."

Such ********.

I can watch that from the backside, call a travel just becuase I could feel it. Don't even need replay. Officials let it go because Wilson is just so good "he can do things like that." When the only reason he can do things like that is becuase they allow it.

And it's not a bad loss if it happens.

The morning session will be half ISU and half KU fans though, right? It’s not going to be a pro-ISU arena at all, I think KU fans would rather have a semi-final against Baylor where they can own the arena rather than having a 50/50 split between ISU and KU fans.

I have never been a fan of **** Vitale. He is so biased. Always kisses up to blue-blooded programs and coaches. He is basketball version of Harry Caray who was a terrible announcer.

KU fans aren't just gonna fill up the arena at 11 am to watch a game that isn't involving KU. There will be KU fans obviously. They'll start rolling in with about 5 min left in our game.

I get what you're saying but on the flip side I highly doubt Baylor fans are saying 'yeah...give me that team that beat us by 15 twice this season...that'll be a win for sure...'
 
I didn't even know Duke and Carolina were playing today. I need to get my ESPN ticker off top 25, otherwise I'll miss all these "Marquee games".

Okie State off to a great start in Lubbock. I'm glad we knew early that we weren't playing Wednesday next week.

I want OSU to win this...8-10 SHOULD put them on the right side of the bubble/play in game.

Then Tech or OU to win it in KC (if we don't). Get 9/10 in the tourney. :)
