The Big 12 probably only went 6-1 because they were overseeded. Probably more teams would have lost if they were seeded 5 and had to play a 12 seed.
But, I also don't think it's just as simple as watching the tournament play out one time and claiming a conference is overrated. They could start...
Whew. When Cade had to go to the bench in the first half, there was this overwhelming feeling of like, this game is going just like Liberty wanted, this is exactly what we all feared. And Avery Anderson was like yeah...no.
In Fort Worth, all the football watch parties were at Trinity Irish Pub, and I talked to her, but I haven't seen if she's setting it up. There's usually not a lot of people there watching.
Dallas usually has more people, but I think some of the normal locations were switched up this year with...
I think Liberty is a solid team and a solid 13 seed, but that's where most bracket predictors had them at 12-13, so it's not quite like Oregon. Oregon was a total sham
Either way, on the other topic. I agree, at first I was upset and annoyed, but at this point I'm so excited for Friday I don't...
That's a 2 sided debate. The other side of it is that would make it the 64 best teams RIGHT NOW. Aka they could be like well Duke looked good this week, so they're in now.
The Big 12, except WVU of all teams, didn't seems to get much respect from the committee. OU an 8, Tech a 6, us a 4, and Houston got the 2 seed over UT
I don't think they do it an an unfair way, but if they have two teams seeded as 3 seeds, I can see them looking at two 6 seeds and seeing which game they think is more interesting. They must do some of that I would think at the very least to prevent as many first and second round interconference...
All the conferences that had a COVID situation treated it exactly the same way. The same way the NCAA tourney will treat it - as a noncontest forfeit. Does it suck for OSU? Yes. But thats the way it is. There have been a lot of things that have taken place in the last year on all sorts of...
I've always kind of thought in these conference tournaments its the 3rd day of consecutive games where teams start to show fatigue in the second half, so I think advantage Texas.
But I also think - Not Enough Advantage - I think the Pokes want this one bad and are going to make it happen
Who really cares? We're kidding ourselves if we say hiring his brother didn't help us, but regardless, so what?
Smart move on Boynton's part, not our fault Kentucky didn't hire him
Where is the evidence that our players are less likely to get Covid by quarantining somewhere else? They are quarantined in KC except for when they're playing games. I don't think going back to Stillwater or Indy would help, I think we just have to get lucky
The most annoying thing about the committee is there's so many different metrics and they pick and choose which ones they want to use for which teams. Like if OSU gets a 4 seed, the will say oh but they're NET isn't any good. Then you could point to another team and they'll say they're NET is...
