What a crapfest and Texas is probably going to lose as well.

All the more reason to fire oscar Weber for not making it to the NCAA tourney in this crapfest conference.

That'd be hilarious to hear Currie give as the reasoning.

Is this year's Big XII the most overrated conference ever?

Serious question: Did anyone really buy that the Big 12 was one of the all time strongest conferences? Other than delusional ku and clone fans obvs

I think the fact that our team was able to win as many as we did should have been a dead giveaway.

I dont' give a crap about how a conference is perceived

no. our best teams would be middle of the pack in the ACC and big 10.

Shut out of the playoff in football. Hot garbage in basketball. Is the Big 12 a glorified mid-major?

you should. because conference perception = tourney bids. which helps KSU.

70% of our conference is in the tourney.

No one did, but I think most felt that there were a lot of pretty good teams, not a lot of mediocre teams.

that's my point. perception is important. In reality, BigXII blows dick - probably only deserved 4 bids. But, it was perceived as a strong conference - resulting in 7 bids.

I hope Murray St sends committee members copies of all these games.

Two random upsets confirm absolutely nothing about the actual strength of the Big 12. It certainly affects the perception, though.

could be. but, good teams don't lose those games.

Fair question. . .which loss is the worst?

2015: #3 Iowa State loses to #14 UAB
2015: #3 Baylor loses to #14 Georgia State
2013: #4 Kansas State loses to #13 LaSalle
