The Big 12 and the Latest Bracketology

[acoustimac]

Crème has KU and Utah in the first out and BYU as the last in. Southern and BYU in playin games. The rest?
Iowa State #3
ASU #9
TCU #2
Baylor #7
WVU #8
TTech #6
OSU #7

What this tells me is the Big 12 is seen as a mid level conference with, currently, two very good teams. The strong starts by ASU and TTech are basically being seen as unsustainable. BYU isn’t a surprise as they’ve had a schedule that an NAIA school could manage. WVU has lost to anyone with a pulse, but their game one in conference is an attention grabber regardless of who they played. Baylor is falling as they should and while still dangerous, they likely won’t challenge for a conference title this year as expected. OSU is another wait and see team. The only teams with a pulse they’ve played…they lost to. And the only decent win was against 9-4 Miami.

Definitely lots of wait and see in the Big 12. If chaos breaks out then those mid-seeded teams are better than we think. More likely is seeing ISU and TCU racing towards a late February matchup in Texas for the title.

EDIT - I’ll toss in that I think ASU is a team to keep an eye on. They have th ability to jump up and bite anyone.

7 in is better than I would have thought.

I don’t think I’m as down on TTU as you. Torvik has them rated over us. They could be fraudulent cause Grelich sucks, but it is going to be a big test when we face them.

I’m just not a believer yet…it’s a wait and see thing. I still have a some things about our Sisters on my wait and see list too.

Have to see if their shooting from deep continues or was an aberration.
