Big 12/SEC Challenge

[Deep Creek]

I think all these games have meaning except for Tenn/TCU & OSU/Auburn. Both Texas and Texas Tech have the opportunity to pick up a top 100 RPI win, which would go along way towards getting an at-large birth for both of them. Ole Miss/KSU is somewhat of an elimination game for at large purposes IMO. Not saying a win would clinch anything by any means, but it would give them both an opportunity to play their way in IMO, more so for Ole Miss probably.

This type of event really makes me miss the bracketbusters games.

I've seen Tech play in person 3 times this year and they've done well just to keep from being blown out a few times. They play hard but just aren't very good. I can't see them beating Arkie in the Pig Barn. But, I've done a poor job of picking CBB games this year.

Would agree on A&M if we hadn't just mailed the crap out of the Arky game.

I think your ags will be fine. Every team has a clunker every now and then. And the freshman may be hitting the wall now. But, I think they'll recover from that.

Why Iowa State-Texas A&M is the best of a loaded Big 12/SEC Challenge

you know Texas has already beat North Carolina, West Virginia, Iowa State, Stanford.

 

[Texas Jefe]

that being said this a must win for Texas, with their remaining schedule of: two against OU, Baylor; then WVU, ISU, Kansas.

 

[Texas Jefe]

31-14 Texas with about 3 minutes left

 

[ralphiewvu]

We're getting blown out

 

[tabascojet]

And another three right.on cue......

 

[tabascojet]

I'm pulling for LSU but I wouldnt be upset with a Kansas blowout of cantuckee.....

 

[tabascojet]

Big 12 might sweep.

 

[tabascojet]

I've got 10-0 Big 12

 

[tabascojet]

I think Vandy, Tn, Ark, Tex A&m win

 

[Texas Jefe]

Texas 72-58 over Vandy in a relatively easy win.

Now come the really difficult games.

Cake is for winners......

Who the hell knew Florida could shoot 70% when they couldn't shoot half that the first 20 games??

 

[tabascojet]

We've had few shooting games Ralph, just saved you the best.....

Yes, I know. Vandy is another top 100 opponent. Texas has great wins on the year.

Gators 88-71.........1-1 and Aggies got next

Most of those 3's were being shot with no defender. A little better defense would make a difference. WVU plays school yard ball. Lots of pushing and hacking; no finesse. I can see why teams don't like to play them.
