Ok, this could get real interesting. Tech vs OSU, I like OSU. That would force UT to play OSU for a third time and they barely one either of those two match ups. Neutral floor and third game = trouble for UT, IMO. OSU has been a team of streaks. They won 6 in a row then lost their last two, they could be ready to win Thu and Fri.

The Baylor vs. OU match up I think could also spell trouble for OU. Again, the higher seeded team is trying to win a third game over their opponent. CU isn't going to wear Baylor down at all, so the bears will be ready to run against OU.

Our  :ku: feathered friends from the East could also have to attempt to beat a team for the 3rd time this season if they face Mizzou. It the tigers win Thu, ku fans will be  :ohno:.

If ISU upends A&M, we would have by far the easiest try at beating a team for the 3rd time.

How come everyone thinks Baylor is awesome and Oklahoma sucks?  It's kind of the opposite.  Oklahoma is an extremely dangerous team when they are healthy because they have much better big men and decent guard play.  Their resume shows that they are a much stronger and consistent team.  I wouldn't be surprised to see them play this Sunday.  Baylor has good guards and live by the outside shot and are really tough to beat when they are on.  They only beat us because they shot out of their minds in Waco that night.  Against Texas A&M they were way off all night and trailed the entire game to A&M, who isn't exactly a scoring machine.  Because of the inconsistency of perimeter shooting, Baylor is not built to go far in tournaments.  You have to have big men to be in the race.  Good guard play gets you over the hump.  Sure Baylor could be on for 3 or 4 nights in a row but it's not likely.
Show me defense.
