Goals for Oklahoma (24-6) I hope they accomplish every year is finish in the upper echelon of the Big XII. They did that. Next, win at least one game in the conference tournament. They'll have their hands full with Iowa St (21-10). And reach the Sweet 16 of the NCAA Tournament. They did all three last year en route to a 24-11 season. I'm an OU fan, but I also have realistic expectations. I hope they cut the nets down when it's all said and done, but that's a very tall order.

Kansas over Iowa St in the CShip... Iowa St is a dangerous team - one that can make a strong run in the Big 12 Tourny... Oklahoma has been a bit too up-and-down for me lately... They're 5-4 in their last 9 games...

Iowa St over KU in the title game

Did ISU learn to play defense and rebound yet?

No doubt they are a fantastic shooting team but their Achilles heel has been that D. I personally expect them to lose to OU Thursday. I think OU will win this tourney.

What a great tournament though. The fact that 4 or 5 teams could easily win it is awesome. ISU has been phenomenal in the B12 tourney the last few years. That said OU beating them us easy to see

They do have track record but they play Morris 38 mpg game and 4 other guys well over 30. I can't see 3 in 3 days going well, especially with the WVU press waiting on that second game.

Honestly ISU is probably better of losing this year and resting up for the real thing. I wouldn't advice running the team into the ground and losing 1st round to some shit team again.

I would vote for Texas to just pass on this tourney and prepare for the NCAAs, but of course that cant happen.
I would though sit Isaiah Taylor to rest foot-plantar fasciitis.

The way Kansas is playing, don't know if anyone can knock them off. Thinking WVU will get to champ game.

FYI: Big12 announced conference team: Texas' Isaiah Taylor is first team; Price Ibeh is defensive player of year.

Buddy Hield is Big12 POY.

Hope you're right, I just don't see us beating OU that next game, if we even get that far.

OU, WV, and Iowa St. all in the same bracket. It's Kansas tourney imo. KU and Isu always have all the fans up there too.

I would love to win the thing but I won't be sad if we end up losing to OU, all but solidifying a 3 seed for us

 

[Texas Jefe]

wont be easy for anybody this year, except for possibly Kansas, if they can keep playing like they have.

 

[Used 2 B Hu]

Go, Bares!!! Leading the Horns early on...

 

[romeo212000]
