Big 12 Weekend:

[K-State Spur]

KU @ ISU
OSU @ KSU
Buffs @ A&M
NEB @ Mizzou
OU @ TT

UT @ Connecticut
UMass @ Baylor

[Blake]

the OSU @ KSU should be a good one.

The OU @ TT had better be a good one.

[K-State Spur]

KSU = not yet ready for prime time. A thoroughly mediocre team came into Manhattan played a thoroughly mediocre game...and the Cats found a way to lose it.

[symple19]

UT just got it handed to em'. I'm surprised

[Doug Collins]

Aggies got the win against a much improved Colorado team. Surprised the Cats lost, but I guess it's not a huge shock when Pullen goes 2-12 on 3ptrs.

[Obstructed_View]

Baylor's got a desperate-for-a-win K State team and a UT team that probably feels the same way coming up. Should be a good test for them.

pullen was terrible - but they still should have handled the pokes. very poor rebounding, way too many stupid fouls committed, samuels didn't come to play at all, kelly only showed up for about 5 minutes in the second half...and to the pokes credit, the cats let them hang around long enough that when muonelo got hot in the final 5, that's was enough to pull off the victory.

Anderson was unstoppable. If he hadn't gotten hurt at uo we would have blown them away. The story for OSU was that someone OTHER than him decided to show up and play. Limiting KSU to 36% shooting helps. Plus KSU was less than 58% on free throws as a team; that's awful.

I liked their swarming defense on UMass. I haven't seen much of them play this year being out on the west coast, but I got a chance to see them yesterday and came away very impressed.

In the Scott Drew era of Baylor BBall, they have always had guards that could drop 30 on any given night, but they've lacked the interior toughness to be a legitimate contender.

Not so anymore. With that huge front-line (Lomers, Udoh, Jones, Acy) and the guards that can drop 30 (Dunn and Carter) I think they're going to challenge in the Big 12 and make a run in the tourney.

Agree that K-State and Texas will be good tests.

OSU packed in the zone tight and forced KSU to beat them from outside. With the exception of a couple early Clemente 3s, Cats couldn't shoot to save their lives.

[Whisky Dog]

We got soft and lazy. This is where Rick Barnes needs to prove he's one of the best (if he is). The team is lazy in the mid season lull period, have a month and a half to regroup and get them focused again and back up to speed. With that talent there is no way they shouldn't be a final four or championship game team at least.

I never thought they'd go much of anywhere with that zone they play, but it's been really good lately. Doesn't hurt that they just have an endless string of really good bigs to throw into the middle.

[K-State Spur]

Cats picked a great time to come out of that shooting slump. Where was that Pullen on Saturday?

[Obstructed_View]

And Pullen played pretty damn good defense too.

Wow, Baylor has to treat the UT game as kind of a must-win. This is going to be a big maturity test IMO. They're either going to do it or they're going to get blown out.

[K-State Spur]

after what dunn did in manhattan last year, you better believe that pullen/martin were going to throw the kitchen sink at him.

[Pistons < Spurs]

Game Time!!!!!

The entire big 12 is seething with talent this year.

Such a far cry from only six or seven years ago.
