Is this a .500 Big 12 conference team?

[catzacker]

KU, MU, UT, A&M and Baylor are better than us.  The Big 12 is not getting 60% of its teams into the tourney.  NIT #3 seed.  8-10 in conf.  

can we remove aTm from the "clearly better than KSU category?"

yes.  however what team(s) are we going to sweep to make up for losing home games against BU and/or KU and/or MU, possibly and/or UT? Maybe ISU and TT.  Maybe.  

You are a rough ridin' curmudgeon.  Go snort some ecstasy.

OSU looks pretty crappy so far.

We might lose 1 or 2 home games, I don't see us losing 3 or more.

OSU is trash this year.  So we will prob lose to them at home after some game that made us feel all extra awesome and stuff.

I just want someone to knock georgy porgy the eff out. Can that be done?

I've often debated whether I would like him or not if he were on our team, I hope not

those would be the other canidates, but we haven't beaten OSU in stillwater for like 2 decades and OU isn't that bad at all with Lonnie.

OSU hasn't been this shitty for like two decades. But I'm sure the performance of Dana, Tom, and Jim in Stillwater will be a big hurdle to overcome. So great point.

Never mind. Write down @OSU as a loss. In pen.

Catzacker, do you (and dax) want to Fire Frank?  I've followed the talking points, but I'm not sure if that's your end game or what.

Some men just want to watch the world burn.

have you seen the dark knight rises trailer(s)?

My favorite thing about the team so far this year is that the team is playing really well and someone is shooting free throws and I get a shot of the bench. I then realize we are doing well with guys like Rodney, Gip, Jamar, Will, etc. on the bench. This make me very optimistic about this season. Will we be world beaters? I doubt it. Sweet 16 team by march. I can see it.

10-8/11-7.

This is one of our deepest teams i can remember ever. We're a stud scorer away from a final four.
I think we'll surprise people. 15-3 or 14-4.

[felix rex]

Remember when Beasley left and people said we would be a better "team"?  I'm still not sure how they were defining that, but maybe that's how they're using it here?

[michigancat]

No, I don't, actually.

Fully on board with this.  11-7 this year would be amazing and looking more and more doable.

I do, they were wrong though.  Not a bad team, but def. not a better one.

I think 11-7 is pretty realistic. Probably 7-2 at home and 4-5 on the road.

Something about better ball movement/maximizing all available talent rather than just one player. Also, to clarify, I'm pretty sure "people" was primarily gpc et al. The "playing basketball the 'right way'" crowd.

[wetwillie]

Round robin play is an absolute delight, so blessed.  10-8 sounds just about right.

We can score at will with are ball screen offense with #teamangel... not concerned with a go to guy

[Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!)]

We're going to win the conference.  It's embarrassing that a thread this Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) exists on this board.


Our only competition is Missouri and Baylor.  Missouri doesn't have any forwards and Baylor still doesn't play defense.  Both teams are dreadful on the road.  After these three teams, there's a huge drop off in competition not worth discussing.
