Texas/Big 12 Hoops thread

[Sirhornsalot]

Just thought I'd put up a thread where we can discuss hoops in an ongoing fashion.

Oklahoma just knocked off #9 Kansas, 75-68

I think it's safe to say KU won't be winning the Big 12 this year. Our next game will be against the same OU team, Tuesday at 6 p.m.

#2 Baylor beats Okie State 81-66

Standings

#2 Baylor 7-0

#5 Texas 5-1

OU 5-3

#12 Tech 4-3

#14 WVU 3-3

#9 Kansas 4-4

OK St. 3-4

TCU 2-4

KSU 1-7

ISU 0-5

As I said earlier in the year, Baylor might just be the best team in the nation and will win the Big XII. Did you see that 16-0 run on okie st yesterday? Man they made that look easy!

Texas has a good chance to finish 2nd however they can't afford to lose any more games at home. The Big XII is tough this year, could see 7 teams make the tourney.

Yeah, we should have beat Tech. Hopefully, we learned something that game.

I didn't see much of the Baylor game. I started to watch it but the disparity in the two teams made it a little boring. Agree, they may be the best in the nation.

We don't have the shooters they do. But we do have the rebounders.

The game was tied when Baylor went on that run. Yes, we have rebounders however Baylor is a solid all around team. Scott Drew is a prick but man I'd love to have him as the coach in Austin.

The Big XII is fun to watch. BTW, this just goes to show you how big Texas' win @ WVU was.

[longhorn_mig]

Agreed. Tonight's game will be interesting, especially without Shaka on the sidelines. I know OU beat KU, but honestly, they don't look that great if you watch their games. We shall see...

Well, its OU so they'll play lights-out against us

Unfortunately, that is true.

[longhorn_mig]

Eff...sounds like we won't have Courtney, Jericho, and Brock tonight.

[Sirhornsalot]

Tech knocks off LSU 76-71.

Florida up on WV 73-71 with 6 mins left.

Of course, Kentucky-Texas are cancelled due to corona on the KU side.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

West Virginia loses to Florida.

TCU loses to Mizzou

Baylor currently handling business with Auburn, 73-53.

Kansas-Tennessee up next

[Sirhornsalot]

OU won their game with Bama.

Baylor won.

Kansas getting it put them by the Fighting Rick Barnes.

[Sirhornsalot]

Not a Big 12 game, but #6 Houston rolled SMU today 70-48.

 

Monday Night – #10 Tech vs #24 OU at Lubbuttocks. 8 p.m.

Tuesday Night – #2 Baylor at #5 Texas 6 p.m.

#11 West Virginia vs Iowa State 6pm

#15 Kansas vs K-State 7 pm

Wednesday Night – OSU vs TCU

[tejasrulz]

WV losing at home to Florida and Tenn beating Kansas by the amount they did surprised me. Other than that, the Big XII vs $ec showdown went pretty much as expected. 

[longhorn_mig]

Any updates on who's going to be available for Baylor?

[longhorn_mig]

Texas came in at No. 6 in both polls this week.

Agree. Kansas is in some kind of funk or just aren't very good.

WV can be good, very good, and pretty average. They're not consistent.

[longhorn_mig]

Sounds like everyone will be back tonight, including Shaka. They're even letting some fans in for the game.

 

[Sirhornsalot]

Baylor had their game with OU cancelled. Lucky OU.

Texas vs OSU tomorrow at 2 p.m.

Important game!  Need to stop the bleeding at 2 straight losses.

When does spring football begin??

[Sirhornsalot]

Horns certainly didn't help themselves today. We're in a funk.

WV beat KU pretty bad. I think part of our hype was based off that KU win by 25 or whatever. Turns out, KU just isn't good.

It's Baylor and then everybody else in the Big 12.
