At the halfway point (well, 46.7% of games played) and a little more separation is forming. Of course part of the separation is built from teams who destroy Tech (OU) compared to teams that don't (us).

During Big 12 play, the Cats have played much better defense (both efficiency and eFG%) compared to the season, but the offense is slipping. Without our mid-range marvel fully healthy, the 2PT% and therefore the eFG% took a big hit this week.

With a road game against the league's worst team and a home game against a disappointing UT team (again), K-State needs to go 2-0 this week.

I think your kenpom numbers got broken, or maybe kenpom is broken.

If you mean the kenpom rankings, not broken. Those are current, it is strange. kenpom loves the Big 12.

I'd say the rpi is far more accurate than kenpom with respect to tcu and to a lesser extent ou.

it looks like ut and osu could slip out of the rpi 50 before the season's end.

I mentioned this in chat, but our in conference 3PA/FGA is 21.3%. 27% for the year. That change is more drastic (and crazier) than our slower pace.

I said something about that earlier this year. Once we realized Marcus was our only real shooting threat it was probably the right decision. However, if Nino isn't healthy then we are in real trouble.

Wes needs to increase his 3PA's. Hell even letting hurt shoot 3 a game would be ok.

57.8% of the Big 12 schedule has been played. After such a promising start that once saw our Cats at 5-2, 4 straight losses have changed the picture.

Once again, 2 PT% is a big indicator of how this season has gone. At 5-2 K-State was outshooting opponents by 2.3% on 2s, now the Cats are being outshot on 2s by 5%. Not being able to score in the paint, especially without Foster, is killing any chance K-State has at winning. While the Cats aren't likely to be passed by Tech or TCU in the win-loss totals this season, its hard to argue that either won't be be better teams by the time this miserable season ends. Tech is really bad as the numbers indicate, but they just kicked us around in Lubbock.

Remember when we were first in the Big 12? Seems like ages ago.

69% of the games have been played.

We dropped to 9th in points per possession differential. Lots of purple low on the charts, but hey, we still have a lot of assists.

40 rpi and 5 of ut's 6 conference wins are over tech, tcu and kstate. they're gonna have to hustle a little if they want to get into the tournament. i don't think they're gonna make it.

Only one week and 10% of the Big 12 is left.

UT had a pretty good defense. (we did not have a pretty good offense)

UT defense was been really good the last week and half since they stop playing zone.

It's pretty crazy how rarely they forced turnovers.
