Not when it comes to mizury, I won't. And, I'd rather you address the main point of your argument. KU, a B12 team won it all last year, did you see a noticeable increase in publicity for the conference?

Indeed, it will. I'm pretty optimistic, though, that the shit-tigers will get beat.

Yes and no. Oklahoma got more publicity, and I am sure KU would have too if they did not lose just about all their team from last year. Anyway, **** publicity, its about recruiting. Unfortunately, the two are somewhat tied together.

The "defending national champ" line has definitely caused KU to get more play throughout the year.
Fans probably don't see it as much because they're already in tits deep. |

Oklahoma got publicity due to talent - see Blake Griffin. That is one way you get publicity as stated in my previous post. KU got the publicity anyway and that's because we won last year, it has nothing to do with us being in the B12.

Personally, I want KU vs. MU in the final four. With the usual result, of course.

The argument is about getting props just for being in a certain conference.

No one gets props just for being in a conference. But, the fact that the Big 12 went 6-0 the first day, and that OSU gave Pitt all they could handle, and having 3 teams in the sweet 16 has not gone unnoticed nationally.

Conference? Meh. Tough b/c KU basically lost its entire team. If more pieces returned, I bet the national spotlight would have been far brighter, and the conference would have seen ancillary benefits. |

Are you saying that teams from the Big East or the ACC don't get the benefit of the doubt with so-so records just because they play in a certain conference?
