Secretly Disappointed

[chuckd4735]

I know KU losing is great for getting tickets (Ill likely take advantage) and makes our path to the championship easier, but playing KU in KC 3 of the previous 4 tourneys has been a freaking blast each time, and just gives the P&L area a different feel. Was looking forward to having it again tomorrow, and for that, TCU must fall.

I wanted Prohm to be 3-2 against Kansas this year rather than next.
Also, I just love beating Kansas.

 

[abrand]

Agreed. It would have been much more satisfying to play KU, but hey, I'll take TCU!

So it's not a secret.

 

[Gordilly]

Not doing a very good job of keeping it secret...

I for one will never be disappointed with KU losing.

 

[Spanky]

Hey, we're playing the the better team.
We'll just have to live with it.

A lot more upside KU. Beat them and Baylor (or WVU), and you're probably a lock for a 5 seed.

 

[CyArob]

Shame they weren't good enough to play us

 

[FinalFourCy]

Agree. It also would have been better for the resume. Oh well, let the wheat farmers save their money for next weekend.


Despite the fact KU brings in great recruits, KU won a TON of close games, many the result of the normal KU bias. Not exactly straw into gold by Self. In terms of raw material TCU looked every bit the challenge as KU.

Would have been exciting to see how it would have gone in round 3 and the way ISU is playing.

KU's played with fire with these big deficits and ISU's not letting that happen with exception to Morgantown.

Since the Texas game I'd say ISU has played well or decent or at least together the whole game and that wasn't the case even in Lawrence.

My main hope is people keep it calm if it doesn't work out tomorrow night. The win in Ames over TCU took a good ISU game, and tomorrow's will be the same.

More tickets for ISU fans.

I would've preferred another top 25 win on the resume, but oh well.

I was looking forward to beating KU, but TCU will be fighting for their lives. Should be a great game.

Give me a double digit seed route to the Final 4 every year. All for easier opponents and more postseason wins. No one on the outside remembers who you beat on the way.

No one remembers the Big 12 tournament.

I'd agree if we were talking about next weekend.

Looking at possibly the 3rd upset of the tournament. God help us if they continue and the final is the battle of the two purple squads.
