I don't know what you want us to say.. I mean us and Baylor didn't get any help from everyone else.

Since this is really a football-first conference, I didn't think most of you boys had a clue how bad B12 MBB may be this year as shown by its performance v. the Big East.

Again.. What more can we do?

 

[Stewo]

The Big 12 is trash thus far by Big 12 standards.

 

[ClonesFTW]

Ya that’s an awful performance, Big 12 is definitely down.

 

[CycloneErik]

We did our part. Cry me a river.

We could rank the most impressive wins in the challenge?

1) Iowa State
2) Baylor

I think not.
Butler NET ranking #3
Seton Hall NET ranking #32

And the Hall was playing without one of their stars who was injured.

Big12 is down, but I think Big East is up.

It appears Bob is identifying as a girl again today.

 

[weR138]

The Big 12 is down this year.

Next question.

 

[JP4CY]

Big12 is down, but I think Big East is up.

Yeah, I think the Big East is way up. Hell, Depaul is 5-0 vs the other power leagues, Creighton 4-1, Butler is 2 pts from being undefeated.
Strong league for sure.

So what’s K-States excuse for losing to Marquette?

 

[heitclone]

I didn't think this was a "challenge" just a scheduling alliance.

It does raise the question about NCAA tourney qualification. It may take more big 12 wins that some thought if the league is viewed as down. I think ISU would have to win 9 games and they'd have to be the right games. You would think splitting with KU, Baylor and Tech is a must. Tough to see many other quality wins, it may be more a case of avoiding bad losses. Probably can't lose again at Hilton without making up for it on the road. Beating Auburn could possibly replace one of those "must" wins.

Can a mod hook my up with the "dumb" button for the holidays here?

I've written many times already that K-State is a bad basketball team presently. There are no excuses.

Bob Huggins 2006-07 K-State team finished 10-6 in the conference play and did not get an NCAA bid.

I prefer big brain time.

Bob Huggins 2006-07 K-State team finished 10-6 in the conference play and did not get an NCAA bid.

And he said that if we went 9-9 it would have to be the right wins.

You are insufferable. Go Navy!
