The Tech game with be an absolute battle. I think there is a good chance that Tech 13-4 when they come to Ames.
Pretty sure Baylor made like 8 straights 3s to end that game. I remember thinking we didn't play that bad down the stretch, they just made literally every shot the last 5-6 minutes of that game.
Tech will be favored in 4 of its last 5 games and favored by 5 or more in three of them. I would be surprised if they finish worse than 12-6.
Pretty sure you are remembering it wrong. Just see the Cat’s post for the correct interpretation as Fred choked away a Big 12 title.
It was 5 possessions in a row with a made 3P shot. 6 three-point attempts, made, in a row (one missed two pointer mixed in, which they got the OReb and promptly nailed a 3). The run also had 7 Baylor made buckets in a row be 3Ps (although they did miss one 3P attempt in that stretch).
Just a brutal loss, followed by an equally painful one point loss at KSU. That season could/should have been an all-time great with both conference titles and a deep run in the tournament.
Kansas State loss was more painful as KSU didn’t lead until under a minute to go when Niang threw the ball to a KSU defender on an inbounds pass.
The only two even possible losses I see there are KU and @ISU. No way the other 3 games are even close.
I can’t differentiate the two. Such a missed opportunity. We lost to a bad TT in Lubbock, too.
I think there's a pretty good chance that game is the difference between TT winning the conference outright at 14-4 or there being a four team tie at 13-5. Long way to go between now and then, though.
@TCU is absolutely a possible loss.
Theyre a top ~40 team, on their home court.
Will tech be favored? Yes. Can TCU win that game? Absolutely.
66% for TTU to win. Tech won by 20 the last meeting. TCU just lost at home to Oklahoma by 10.
Want to make a bet on TCU, or are you just blowing smoke.
I simply said Tech could lose 3 or 4 out of their last 5. I never said they will lose to TCU I was just pointing out that it is entirely possible but apparently that was ridiculous.
You are correct that TT could lose to TCU on the road. If they played today, TT would be favored, but by no more than 3-4 points. Case in point, TCU was favored by 2 points at home versus KU two games ago. Of course, a lot could happen before the two teams play.

Yeah, that guy was correct too. Because of course we lost the k state at home because of prohm making Nick miss a wide open 3 and Lindell missing free throws.
I’m mocking the ridiculous standards that are applied by some to the current coach. Fred is my third favorite Cyclone ever, after Mike Born and Brian Pearson (God rest his soul). I loved watching those teams play. It was exciting.
I knew after he stopped wearing a tie that he was leaving. He did it wrong. He stopped recruiting after Monte and Matt. He made Iowa state wait, and not be able to add pieces to give that next team a chance to max their potential.
Hasn't Baylor basically just been better than or as good as ISU in those games?
Definitely a terrible matchup those years at least.
