So give me the breakdown of the KU-MU game? I could only follow scores. Had a KU fan tell me today MU won the game and got ****ed on a few calls.

I don't think the BIG 12 tournament is that important for the top teams. It's more important for teams like Iowa St. and KSt as far as seeding. KU doesn't have to win it to stay a 1 seed, and I don't think MU will get a 1 seed even if they do win it, it can't hurt, but it won't decide who gets the 1 and who gets the 2.

I don't think a six loss Kansas gets it over a four loss Mizzou that beat them twice.

Notre Dame is a much better team now than they were when they played MU at the beginning of the year. Having that said I still think MU is better. Big East bball is overrated.

"****ed on a few calls" basically describes the outcome of both games for the loser. Or basically if you want to complain about calls in one you'd have to say both were not particularly well officiated.

That's a good way to describe it. Bad calls cost Mizzou a win in Lawrence, but bad calls cost KU the game in Columbia.

I'm interested to see another MU ISU matchup. I didn't really get to watch the last one.

I think KU and MU meet up again in the final. I don't really see either of them slipping up before then. If Baylor all of a sudden gets tough maybe or if KState plays well they could beat KU.

ISU will have to shoot it really well to beat MU. I don't know if they can defend enough.

KU is a solid 3rd #1 right now. losing the BIG 12 tourney, even to MU is not going to get them booted to #2. They'd have to go out in the first game for something like slipping to a 2 seed to be considered. Its not who has more loses, if that were the case MU would already be considered a 1 over KU.

I think KSU is a big wild card for the Big XII tourney. They are playing well, and both of their games against Baylor have been close. They might be able to upset KU in the second round if they can get past Baylor. I think Mizzou matches up well with either ISU or Texas...although Texas can be scary if Brown plays really well...you often see teams with one stud player do well in conference tourney...the stud player puts the team on his back and just carries them.

Texas player that broke his arm last night sure didn't help Texas any either

Disagree. I think that belongs to UNC. I think KU's #1 spot could be lost if they lose to Mizzou in the Big XII tourney.

I think the ISU MU matchup is gonna be a really good one if it happens. ISU is playing well as is MU.


I would like to see Ku get KState again as well.

I think right now UNC is the 4th 1.


I know they just destroyed Duke but they also lost to that team at home. They were blown away by FSU.


That said, I think UNC might be the second best team in the country talent wise. Hell you could argue that they have more talent than Kentucky.

But they just climbed back into that 1 line. I think they end up with the 4th 1 if all teams win out.
