No basketball for me today…lots of house cleaning in order. I am, however, sad that it’s not snowing in Fulton, and I don’t think it’s going to.
And Norm is making a chest on chest reproduction. Pretty awesome.

And because they do have the toughst SOS in the nation
and their RPI is still up in the (now) high 40’s. I dont like the idea of a team getting in at 8-10, but they have some VERY solid wins (all the more strange because of who they have lost to)

not 8-10...6-10...
…if they get to 8-10, I’ll have much less problem with it.
Rock M Nation
Thrust nunchuk upward!
Well...if you have much less of a problem with them
being on the bubble at 8-10, then you have to take the fact they will be considered on the bubble at 6-10….the bubble can certainly burst for good with one more loss, but until that happens, they are certainly on it.

my boy shumpert and his rambling wreck
are getting blitzed by the tar heels at the dean dome. Hansbrough is having a monster game and Iman is having a terrible one. no points and three fouls. He is only a freshman, but he has had better games. Such as the one against Wake when he hit the game winner
I actually clicked on RMN and thought ,"Crap!"
I’m missing the Mizzou game…then I realized we play tomorrow…
this is awesome
today it’s fun to watch basketball…tommorow it’s work (GO TIGERS) but for now let’s go Creighton
seriously, local CBS...
…I understand that there’s cause for some weather warnings right now. But when I grew up in Oklahoma, they fit the entire state of Oklahoma into the bottom corner of the screen, and it took up LESS space than your 12-county look at mid-Missouri. This, plus the obscene sponsorship logos, take up literally one-third of the screen. Unacceptable.

…the Jets traded for Lito Sheppard. They’re a QB (and WR) away from being a pretty damn good team, I think.
Rock M Nation

damn...I think for a mid-rounder this year
and a conditional next year, I will take. I figure it will be a 3rd rounder this year, would love it to a 4th, but I just doubt it.
The entire O-line is back…Scott signing into the LB corps is really nice. This is a great player to line up opposite Revis at CB. They could still use another Safety…but yes…WR and QB is all that remains.

So, reading Tigerboard while I'm at work
and in the midst of loads of smack talk is a thread lamenting the fact that the Post-Dispatch writers all picked kansas to win tomorrow (as if it’s not the smart pick, or something).
So, our old friend Implode states that kU shouldn’t count on the same big rebounding margin they had during the last game.
kU’s conference rebounding margins:
K-State -3
@Cu +12
A&M -3
@ISU +9
@Neb +19
CU +14
@BU +10
OSU +12
@Mizzou +16
@K-State -1
ISU +10
Neb +22
@OU +6
In losses and games decided by <15, kU is….
+9, +19, +14, +10, +12, +16, -1, +6
That’s an aggregate of +85, average of +10.6/game
In blowouts-wins, kU went
-3, +12, -3, +10, +22
aggregate of +38 (average of +7.6/game).
In HOME games, kU is
-3, -3, +14, +12, +10, +22
Aggregate of +52, 8.7/game average.
MU, on the other hand is
@Neb +5
CU -5
ISU +16
@OSU even
Tech -14
@K-State -8
BU +4
@UT -7
@ISU +4
kU -16
Neb +6
@CU +15
K-State +4
In losses and games decided by <15 (non blowouts), MU has been
+5, even, -14, -8, -7, -16, +15…
That’s aggregate of -27 overall (or avg of -3.8/game)
In blowouts, we’re -5, +16, +4, +4, +6, +15, +4, an aggregate of 44 – average margin of +6.3
Road games:
+5, even, -8, -7, +4, +15.
Aggregate of +9, average of +1.5
Ah, TB, the bastion of rational basketball discussions.

UCONN and ND is a good one
ND stayed in it early with a ton of 3-point shooting in the first half. UCONN is down headed to the line to finish an and-1 at the under-16 timeout down 1

ND has answered each mini-UCONN run
Adrien has been tremendous today, and at some point I have to believe the ND shots will stop falling, but their other game was very close and I believe this one will end that way too

gotcha...was not sure how close aTm was
obviously if they win out (including a win against us) and get one in the tourney, I am guessing that puts them in.

OU vs TT
Who would you rather win this game? I want TT to win so we would have a better ranking IF we win tomorrow.
A TTech win would help our RPI for a few days
and their winning would certainly help our potential seeding at the Big XII Tourney if we do not win out, but in the end (and since OU is now starting to pull away as well), I dont think it matters too much. :-)

then, when we went to probation he went to UK (because they went OFF probation at the same time)?
That’s how I remember it. I never really disliked him too much, because he went to his home state school when we went on probation. Couldn’t really blame him.

I kinda agree with the announcers that it doesn’t seem fair. Maybe they should consider adding a provision that if the team makes the shot on the intentional foul, they don’t get the extra possession, just the two shots.

We're getting no "bubble" press right now
Not that we necessarily deserve it given our RPI, SOS, and total lack of quality non-con wins. But we should have a good “last 12” record and will have big road wins over UT, TAMU and a home win over y’all. I would think that would at least merit a mention.
Nebraska, on the other hand, flatlined with tonight’s loss. Josh Carter put them on life support, and we pulled the plug. It’s NIT for Doc Sadler’s bunch. Just hope we’re not joining them there, but we probably are.
