Decent team. They didn't shoot the '3' ball well, but we did focus on not letting Gotcher get hot there, thus Matt got taken for some layups. Overall, tho, they have a lot more talent than I've seen them have for awhile.

They looked good to great defensively and we're lucky they shot like crap from behind the three. This Tech team will give KU fits on Saturday and will finish ahead of Texas, KSU, OSU and TCU, IMO.
They are a tough team, but I'm not sure how "good" they are. Similar to last year. Our offense was bad more than their defense was good.
It was a good win. There is not much separation in CBB and there are no bad teams in the Big 12. TT is certainly good enough to beat us when we are playing with that much foul trouble or even just an off night.
Yeah, I definitely disagree with this. They didn't look good defensively. We missed at my count at least 4 bunnies, 4 wide open 3s and a few drive-in layups that typically fall. With Niang out, our offense was disjointed and never really got going. Niang was tentative the entire game because of having 3 fouls and then almost picking up a quick 4th. With all that we still led the entire game, by 18 before half, and won comfortably by 7. Offensive nights like this happen but Baylor has the personnel to exploit it so I'm hoping this doesn't happen on Saturday.
As far as where they finish, your prediction seems about right besides Texas and possibly KSU. 7th is where I place them if you hold a gun to my head.
I would agree with most of this.
