I was able to overhear Anderson chatting with Franklin and Fraschilla:

The Baylor fans (all 12 of them) got rather silent when the KU video showed them with the national championship trophy.

This means we’ll have Leo’s “Are you ready??” and JYD’s scream tonight here at the Ford Center.

Someone behind me asked if the score was a misprint. Someone WEARING A CREDENTIAL ISSUED TO A WORKER FOR THE BIG 12 CONFERENCE said “I wish.”

The first thing I said was “OH MY GOD!”. This is pretty cool.

can it?

Is there anything better than watching bsketball at work?

My boss just came in and watched a few minutes with me.

I will be all smiles today if BU can win this.

if kU loses.

Baylor band chanting “Peanut Butter Jelly Time” in unison to try to throw off KU free throws

They will become my second favorite Big 12 team.

If Baylor can keep the lead around 10 heading into the half…they got a real good shot at the upset.

I don’t know which name makes me laugh more: Tweety Carter or Brady Morningstar

do the KU fans making the weird warbling sound, sound just like the witch crying in Left 4 Dead? (If you have played it)

Maybe kU only has 1 turd-bullet in their stinker-gun. They decided they want t save it for th NCAA’s.

I was hoping they had a whole clip.

I really hope that doesn’t happen. Anybody else would be better.

Baylor has the ball

the Bears got some names

Welcome to being just a normal team in the B12

stay in it and give yourselves a shot

they got a shot

One point Bears lead.

I was in a conference call for the last two hours and just turned it on. Go Fighting Baptists!

are free

talk about a serious miss.

I’m confused…thought Baylor was in bonus

are all whores

is fantastic

absolutely fantastic

I really thought KU was gonna pull away after half time. Do you think this hurts KUs seeding at all? Doubtful I bet. If we run the table in this tourney, maybe we can steal it from them.

OK Mizzou…now make our days even better and stop on the Raiders tonight!

Way to go Baylor!

(This curse-free post brought to you by the student conduct code of Baylor University)

We spoke more about basketball during that conversation than we have in the entire time we’ve been together.

Ah, kansas basketball: Bringing families together. Especially when they lose embarrassingly.

I had no idea they could lose to Baylor. I did not even know that they were playing Baylor.
In Golf news, Tiger is -2 thru 11 which is good for 4 shots behind the lead

We were talking about this while watching the game during lunch.

I figure they’re solidly at a 4 now, after losing to Tech and Baylor in a week. Had they won at least one of these two games, they were looking at a 3 with a shot at playing into a 2.

…this is not at ALL the result I expected to see when I got out of a long meeting, but…YES.

That’s what my dad calls it when kU loses and we win.

Baylor 11 team fouls.
kansas 13 team fouls.

In the entire game.
I realize our style of play will often lead to an increase in fouls called, but really? We get 10 fouls in 12 minutes sometimes. I didn’t get to see the game, so maybe there is a reasonable explanation for this, but it caught my eye when looking at gamecast.

…that since ghtd36 and I finished our podcast (in which we said that ATM was winning easily and KU was going to win easily), we’ve been made to look very, very dumb.

Sue me, but I love the Wabash Cannonball

not a good day for high seeds in the B12 or ACC. still BEGGING for a lower seeded victory in the big east tournament. can marquette come through for me?

…BYU’s in regardless, but Air Force is TERRIBLE (10-20 overall, 0-16 in conference pre-tourney)…this would at least knock down their seed in my bracket by 2-3 spots…

Weirder than I thought.

holy crap. still no lower seeded victories in the big east tourney. and they won’t come tonight either with UCONN and pitt playing. although i thought there was no chance baylor would beat kansas either.

is a 1 point game.

This should be a good finish

Don’t yell me anyone is working today.

baylor vs. UT in the first semi tomorrow. is k-state officially dead now?

oklahoma state upsets OU 74-73

mizzou bucks the trend of lower seeds winning and wins 84-70, the game is never very close.

you can have you pick between yummy B10 action, sultry pac 10 action, and irrestible SEC action. is it 6:00 yet?

I’ll be back at 6

A (hopefully) good game is about to start!

Wake up!

Third time’s a charm!

and he wasn’t unjustified.

Griffin gets the benefit of a “hold” call when the OSU was boxing him out back to back.

I’d much rather have Texas or Baylor than either of these teams.

finding out that ku has been bounced good work bears, now if mizzou can hold up its end and win

the Big 12 is ours for the taking.

There isn’t a team left in the tournament that has beaten Mizzou. We’re 5-0 against the remaining 5 teams.

34-33 OU

Blake will get his, but you just have to slow him down a little.

I wasn’t paying complete attention, but I didn’t notice him off the floor.

Also, I would adore it if OSU knocked off OU. ADORE it.

he literally used his shoulder to plow the defender out of his way and went in for the layup. remind you of anyone?

Swarmswarmswarmswarmswarm.

Did you see that juke?

pittman had 20 rebounds today? geebus.

Eaton has some hospital bills for which to pay. Them’s some broken ankles.

bring in the medic. he just broke some ankles.

We have to play Tech tonight. Then OU/OSU tomorrow (hopefully). Those are two good teams and one bad streaky team.

There’s some intensity on this floor, folks.

But there was no way that was tipped by OU

How do the Cowgirls I just saw on TV measure up to the talent you saw from UT today?

Blake Griffin got called on a charge.

“I feel like Oklahoma is the type of team that, if they get down … 8, 10, maybe 12 points, they don’t know what to do.”

Uh…

FOR THREE!

Have been knocking out some chores (reading for a class, making chili for the weekend, showering, etc.) and have only watched the last 3 minutes or so…WOW.

so I haven’t been able to sneak away to the TV…

6:30 to play

Get excited, Oklahoma! You’re tied with a team you’re supposed to be much better than on a neutral floor! WOOO!

/remains unimpressed with OU

…yeah, Griffin MAULED Eaton…

…with 4:40 left.

with how high energy it’s been

or did one of the announcers just go “Oh Sh*t…”?

do they lose their 1 seed if they lose this badly?

Duquesne with the upset!

but it was stupid none the less.

but OSU is down by two with two minutes left

WE’RE TIED!

crazy save there

…Anthony Brown with the best/luckiest save you’ll ever see…

Timeout OSU, 66-66, 1:20 left…

um, he has done it for the last 18 years in Stillwater

touch foul on OU

30 seconds left!

…but when you’re as good as Griffin/Duncan, you can get away with it…

Normally, you say they need to swallow their whistles, but you’ve got to call that.

…Warren almost traveled while trying to call timeout.

dang

They’re absolutely right: that should have been a walk.

I think you foul Blake griffin as soon as he touches the ball

…Eaton gets destroyed, they miss the call, and then they call a ticky-tack makeup afterward…

CRIPPLING FOUL ON BLAKE GRIFFIN!!!

…tied with 2.3 left.

…there was definitely a foul on that possession, but usually they disguise the makeup call a bit more than that.

…OSU makes the FT, OU throws it the length of the court and misses a shot…only the clock didn’t start. Jesus, Big 12 refs suck.

OSU wins for sure

…now DON’T BLOW THIS.

My heart is beating out of my chest right now.

IF we win, we play a tired OSU team, and a Baylor/Texas team that will play their 4th game in as many days.

Mizzou might just have a chance to play its way to Kansas City.

HORRAY!!!
