It's only the beginning of February.  Maybe is a must win for Shane  :dunno: but that would be this week in practice rather than just his game time.

Must win in order not to suck ass and balls and taints if that's what you mean.

Depends what the season goal is; if its NCAAs, I'd say its about as close to must win as you can get.

Ha, i'd say that would be a fair punishment. I've got a lot riding on this game now.  :ohno:

All games against the dogshit teams are must wins. We don't need any loses worse than OU

this. It really won't matter, because there are plenty of opportunities to get into the NCAA tournament after it. So it might change peoples' perception of the team but not make or break the NCAA tournament. Really, until we're out of the Phillips 66, we aren't out of the tournament.

If we don't get this one, a complete fall off the cliff end to the season could be ahead of us.

And there could be a couple nice wins, too. Jesus.

Agree.  This along with the home games with OSU and Tech are must wins.  Also need to nab two from the @Tx, @aTm and ISU games.   Hope for one from KU, @Bay and @ Miz.  That's 10-8 and dancing :driving:

I think the assumption (imo, a correct assumption) is that if this team isn’t good enough to beat A&M at home it’s not going to be good enough to win the games it needs to win down the road in order to make the NCAA.  The A&M game as a single event is not a must win, but when taken into context of the games/performance already completed and the ones a head of us, it’s a must win.  

Now, you could argue/draw an analogy/counter that this game is like the @ CU game last year.  Just because we lost to CU didn’t preclude us from going on a run to get into the tournament……however, just because last year’s team went against the probability that it wasn’t going to get to the tourney (at the point in time it lost @ CU), doesn’t mean this year’s team will as well.  It’s foolish to assume so.

Thanks Dr. Palm but we all know this team won't win the Phillips 66 so this is a must win.  eh?

Yeah, it's foolish to assume either way.

no, kenpom would say that if we lose this game, and then when you factor in our predicted wins the rest of the way, we wouldn't get to the tournament.  that's not foolish.  it's logical.

He would have us winning one of KU/MU/BU/UT. And of course there's the tournament.

....and losing @ A&M. And I'll go ahead and assume that he won't have us winning the big 12 tournament.

Really can't believe there is still people that can't see this team for what they are, but our fans are dumbasses so I guess I see.  Keep  :pray: for a miracle to happen though if that makes you feel better

This just in, every game is must in. Team is sex, definitely lustin'. Their play does perplex, hard to trust in talent that's just thin. My once shiny hopes, well they're rustin.

Frank can out coach someone with Parkinson's.  Have we really lost that much faith in him? It isn't a must win its 100% certain we will win.
