How many big 12 teams have road games against top 25 opponent?

Assume you meant 'have won road games'?

I think its just Cincy @ BYU and Tech @ Texas

Matchup finder doesn't let me filter by conference but here's what i'm seeing for teams that have beaten a top 25 team on the road for all of the NCAA this year:

Figure of speech, but I assume TJ would agree that it would have been REAL bad to blow that lead. That doesn't change the fact that it is the biggest win of the season and we played some of our best basketball of the season. My point was more that TCU had a lot to do with the blown lead and it wasn't really as much about us (the only real bad move---which didn't especially hurt us---was Gilbert taking an off balance 3 with a ton of shot clock left).

Road wins are going to be so hard to come by....Kansas has already lost at WV and UCF, two of the 'worst' teams in the conference.

A ranked road win without our best player? I think it is easily our best game of the year. And the Houston game was really, really good.

Yeah those free throws hurt. Also hurt that we didn’t get fouled enough to be in the double bonus by then. Whether that was the refs or our lack of aggressiveness trying to run down the clock.

jones 2-2
gilbert 1-2

I don't know, we've had a handful of wins vs top 2 teams in our entire history. Its still a pretty rare feat. Even though ranked road wins are also pretty rare in the big 12, i think wins like vs Houston are a bit more rare.

ok, i think if you had said "most impressive" i'd agree. "best" in terms of NCAA tourney impact, I'd say houston. splitting hairs. at season's end no one on selection sunday will be taking into account that TL was out. just that ISU got a quad 1 win on the the road against ranked TCU

There's definitely nuances in the conversation. Players stepping up that in Lipsey's absence might be most important in longevity. Guys like Gilbert and Watson may have had their best overall games.

Heck Omaha got in and had a glimpse of what could be to come. I hope that continues because he looks super eager to do well.
