It seems like I read "Kansas must be destroyed" more than "shall".
Looks like TxT could actually get it done ...
- Thread starter surly
- Start date

LOL I thought of sounded off when I typed it. Guess I'm the first one to sign up for the training, even though shall has more legal significance than must.
Someone needs to beat them outright. Otherwise the pundits will just keep blabbering on about the streak like they do now even tough three of those titles are shared with Texas, Oklahoma and KState.
TxT gets Ku in Lubbock but travels to K-State, WVU and oSu. I'd take Tech if I had to wager. They have more talent.
Think the conference race comes down to whether or not ISU can knock off KU in Ames.
If Tech is the team to do it, I'm afraid the perception of the conference strength takes a hit regardless of the non-conference results.
it is possible the conference doesn't have a top 2 seed in tournament this year. I could see where they KU, Tech and WVU are all 3 seeds.
On a side note, wonder who is going to be forced out at Texas or let out of the scholarship. They oversigned by 1 when they thought Jones was leaving but obviously he isn't leaving now. So they are oversigned by 2 and they have a lot of freshman and sophomores.

Of all the programs that consistently have had good teams, and would put together a squad for a couple years that really looked like it could dethrone kansas....freaking Texas Tech of all teams looks like they will end the streak.
The streak must die, but why couldn't it have been ISU/OU/WVU a few years back? Hell even Baylor/OSU had some pretty legit squads for a few years. Tech has sucked for years, but picked a hell of a year to have a lot of seniors on the floor and key young guys.
There were some years where the Big 12 had a lot of good teams at the top, but KU would manage to win most of those games, and ISU for example couldn't sweep the gauntlet of OU/WVU/Baylor to take the conference. Same could be said for other programs like OU/WVU.

Agreed. KU is down this year and Tech has a very senior laden team. The ISU, OU, WVU teams of the past 5-6 years have been much better than Tech this year but KU was very dominant in those years and reloaded. I would be happy for KU's streak to end but I will annoyed that if it's Tech..who normally has 500 fans at their games.
I think in years past had it been only KU and one other really good team, the streak would have ended i the last 4-5 years. The Big 12 consistently had 4 really solid teams year in and year out. They would beat each other up preventing KU from trying to hold off a team rocking 14, 15, 16 conference wins.
Tech is very efficient. They defend the hell out of the other guy. They are mature and deep. And beat the snot out of our squad.
As I've said before, they have a solid chance (now) to win it outright with Ku having to visit Lubbock. Hopefully, that happens.
