I guess it'd be cool to finish 2nd in the conference, but I don't care all that much. I just want a bye on the first day of the Big XII and avoid aTm and Baylor as long as possible.

I want to finish 2nd, well because it would be better than 3rd or 4th, but besides that, it means that we win at least 11 if not more conference wins. That  might get us a 2 seed depending on how other potential 2 seeds finish out their seasons.

if we finish 2nd in the big 12 we'll have a 2 seed.

I think I will be disappointed if we finish lower than 2nd.

It's adjusted based on actual chance we win each game.  Because it's not 100% we win any of them and the percentage to win in Lawrence is so low chances are we drop another one.

I'm kind of putting the anchor at 12-4.

I'm thinking somewhere around 60%. I think our rough style of defense could get in the heads of a bipolar team like that and really help us. That's just a theory though, but I get the feeling they are a mentally weak team. Obviously if they get on a roll, they can be tough.

I'd be devistated. I see 2 games we are in legitimate danger of losing... I will admit I'm prone to overreacting, though.

@KU, @OU, and @TT are all legitimate loss possibilities.

OU will zone/junk D us IMO.  Pulls/clemente cannot be off.

zone some prob.  has ou ever used a junk defense?  maybe, but i can't recall it.  i think of capel as the most vanilla coach in the league.

agreed.

OU's 3 McDAA's worry more than any defense they might play.

Definately some games we could lose, but I don't think we'll lose more than 2.

every game is a loss possibility.  @KU is almost a loss certainty.  3 more losses won't be fun no matter who they're to and/or how we lose.

I think we hold serve at home.  Our guys should be up for MU.  Could def. see us dropping the 3 roadys though.

TT is pretty fracking bad, we shouldn't lose that game regardless of how bad we play in Lubbsies.  i expect loses @ KU and @ OU though.

It is very likely that going into games on Feb. 20th that we will be alone in 2nd place in the league as the only 3 loss team.  UT, aTm, and MU all look to have at least 4 losses at that point.
