The decision has nothing to do with what's best for college basketball. It's all about what the NBA wants.

O.city · 02-11-2012, 06:24 PM

Saul is exactly right.

I think it should be like football myself.

I'm still thinking we can win this thing out, and take home #8. Last thing I want is Mizzou snagging even a share of this thing as a going away present.

Why would you force guys who are NBA ready to play in college for three years?

O.city · 02-11-2012, 06:28 PM

Just to make the college game better. I like college better than the NBA. It's pretty much me being selfish.

O.city · 02-11-2012, 06:30 PM

I also don't think there are enough guys that are NBA ready in high school.

O.city · 02-11-2012, 06:31 PM

What do you think the rankings will be next week Saul?

If OSU wins:

Kentucky
Syracuse
tOSU
Mizzou
Kansas

Mizzou should be ahead of tOSU, though.

Otherwise, move tOSU below Kansas.

O.city · 02-11-2012, 06:37 PM

Why should they be ahead of tOSU?

I figure that's about what the rankings will be.

tOSU hasn't looked good lately, and Mizzou just beat two top ten teams.

So, Home of the Chiefs was only like 5 idiots today. It's almost eliminated.

Also, no one booed Nash, even though he was insistent he'd get booed. What a moron.

LAWRENCE, Kan. -- Nothing was going to stop Kansas (No. 10 ESPN/USA Today, No. 7 AP) in the first half, not even 5-foot-9 Keiton Page.

The senior guard for Oklahoma State tried setting a screen on Thomas Robinson, the Jayhawks' 6-foot-10, 237-pound forward, who steamrolled right over him.

"That was the game plan going in, for me to set more screens," Page said. "He got a hold of me over in front of the Kansas bench. It didn't feel too good."

That pretty much summed up the first half Saturday, when Page scored 10 of his 19 points. Kansas held a commanding 51-24 lead heading into the locker room, and withstood a big second-half comeback by the Cowboys for an 81-66 win.

"We've been through this before," said Oklahoma State coach Travis Ford. "We've been punched in the mouth before. Our guys didn't like the taste of it at halftime."

The first half was similar to the one Oklahoma State (12-13, 5-7 Big 12) played against Baylor on Jan. 14. The Bears led 46-31 at halftime and went on to win 106-65.

This time, the Cowboys fought to within 12 at one point in the second half.

"Our guys decided to change it a little bit," Ford said. "It could have gotten worse, the day they were having. I told our team, Kansas is a Final Four-type team."

Markel Brown led Oklahoma State with 21 points.

"They attacked the area and we didn't fight back until the second half," Brown said. "We had to turn it around the second half and show we're capable of playing with anybody."

Jeff Withey finished with 18 points and a career-best 20 rebounds, while Robinson burnished his player of the year credentials with 24 points and 14 boards for Kansas (20-5, 10-2).

Tyshawn Taylor added 12 points, Elijah Johnson had 11 and Travis Releford 10.

Kansas spent the afternoon honoring the 1952 national championship team.

The Jayhawks wore throwback uniforms, the cheerleaders were dressed in skirts that touched the floor, and a pregame video montage showed grainy, black-and-white clips of the team that knocked off St. John's in the final for the school's third national title.

Several members of the team were introduced at halftime, including Bill Hougland and Clyde Lovellette, who was the MVP of the Final Four and later became a four-time All-Star in the NBA.

Also on hand were Chiefs coach Romeo Crennel and offensive coordinator Brian Daboll, who are good friends with Jayhawks football coach Charlie Weis. The three of them, whose ties extend to their days with the New England Patriots, sat together along the baseline.

Digger just proclaimed with certainty that KU would win the rematch.

The arrogance.
