Big 12/SEC Challenge comes to an end. Thank god.

[nallen34]

I've dreaded this game every year, ever since they put it in the middle of conference play. We went 4-6 overall. 6 of our last 8 games were on the road. Seems fair.

2022-23: Jan 28 at Missouri. Lost 61-78.
2021-22: Jan 29 Missouri. Won 67-50.
2020-21: Jan 30 at Miss St. Lost 56-95.
2019-20: Jan 25 at Auburn. Lost 76-80.
2018-19: Jan 26 at Ole Miss. Won 87-73.
2017-18: Jan 27 Tennessee. Lost 45-68.
2016-17: Jan 28 at Vandy. Lost 78-84.
2015-16: Jan 30 at A&M. Lost 62-72.
2014-15: Dec 4 Arkansas. Won 95-77.
2013-14: Dec 2 Auburn. Won 99-70.

Hopefully the future Big 10 challenge Fox owns will be played in December, right where it should be

At least we aren’t TCU, who looks like they have lost Miles, Jr. to a knee injury in today’s game.

The 'Challenge' thing is fine, the timing the last several years has been stupid win or lose.

Meanwhile other conferences are having a day to crank up their conference situations.

The challenge is fine. The timing blows. Thankfully the Big 12/Big East challenge is played in December.

Should have been in the non con like these things usually are. Glad it’s over

Obviously FOX & the B12 office will call the shots but I agree these type of games need to be in December. I’d rather watch a home game in December that would rotate with Drake and UNI in comparison to Winona State types.

And I would prefer to play someone new than just get slated with Iowa every year.

Is this confirmed or assumed? If so I think we’d still always play Iowa but we’d never get Iowa in this thing.

I'm in the minority I guess, but I like it played where it is at. Breaks up the grind.

 

[CYEATHAWK]

If TCU and Baylor hold on it's Big Twelve-5.......SEC-1.

Assumed. It's pretty easy inventory, especially when you practically own one conference and get a very large share of the other's basketball games.

I like the break in the grind too, but a bye week does that a lot better too

Sadly, we might be the only team to lose.

Lol wut?

Baylor hangs on to beat the Hogs by 3.

 

[fcclone]

Looks like the two losses (ISU and TCU). Each had two starters out with injuries.

On the road to boot

Not sure how you see that from what we've seen so far.

The 2 losses for the big 12 so far were on the road and hobbled by a couple major injuries.

Not to mention, the way it played out could not have been set up much worse for the big 12's highest rated teams. Of our 5 teams in the top 15, the SEC got to face 4 of them at home.
