We'll beat KU and probably Baylor. Will lose @UT or @aTm

5 more is going to be tough. It would help to at least go 1-2 during that brutal KU, MU, BU stretch.

Guess its a good thing we're a lock with 4 more wins.

Frank has three more in him, I'm sure of it. Does it have to include one of BU, KU, MU for 9-9 to stick?

I think we need one of those to be safely in, or feel really safe on selection day (not counting the Big 12 tournament). I know the bubble is supposedly weak at this point, but riding a 4 game losing streak at this point is not a good idea. Plus, while we don't and likely won't have any really bad losses, we also don't have many really good wins. Our OOC is decent, but not great. And we've not taken advantage of many opportunities in Big 12 play.

I think its reactionary to say this team is completely out and has no chance to make it, but its also not valid to say we're clearly in at this point. Still plenty of work to do, and each of these types of losses simply reduces the margin for error a little bit more each time.

And chalking up ISU at home or @aTm as a win is not really something we can do. Need to get 1 out of 3 against the big boys

kougar24 · « **Reply #9 on:** February 11, 2012, 05:31:45 PM »

This loss didn't reduce our margin for error a "little." It decimated it.

first, we don't have to win aginst KU, @ MU, or @ BU. going 0-3 against those 3 requires 3 wins against ISU, OSU, and @A&M. but the idea that we're just going to f*cking roll into A&M and win....lol. I mean, we're banking on going on the road and beating A&M? jfc. Had we of won today, we could have lost @ A&M.

AppleJack · « **Reply #13 on:** February 11, 2012, 06:08:04 PM »

I keep trying to tell myself that we are supposed to be a bubble team this season. Then I see us up by 14 twice (!) on the road to our bubble competition and lose. I have no idea what to think. My expectations have changed from our first game - we have blown our chance to lock a tourney spot before the confy tourney. Frustrating.

OU just got blown out by Texas Tech. If I read the score correctly, by 18 freaking points. We lost to OU twice. Both of those are bad losses.

Now in the upper 90s. Looks like they'll finish the regular season 15-15 and 5-13, and that's if they manage to beat OSU and aTm at home. Right now their next best win to beating us is Oral Roberts or Arkansas. They are a bad team.

kso_FAN · « **Reply #17 on:** February 14, 2012, 10:44:14 AM »

I like our chances to compete at Baylor, but it will be tough to win. Don't feel good about Columbia at all.

The last three, I think we can win them all, but a loss in there wouldn't shock me.

I think we finish with 2 more wins minimum, and I like our shot to get 3. Very much on th bubble.

Games like last night I can get over, I still look back at the pair of losses to OU, BU, and @ISU as the ones we let get away. Not necessarily even winning all 4, but we should've gotten at least 2.

Cire · « **Reply #18 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:10:21 AM »

If we finish 500 in the league we SHOULD be in. ACC teams used to get teams in when they were the top conference at .500

MakeItRain · « **Reply #19 on:** February 14, 2012, 11:24:00 AM »

Still need 3

Depending on where you look, no. Anywhere from 99 to 103 from what I've seen.

MakeItRain · « **Reply #23 on:** February 14, 2012, 12:32:59 PM »

104 on the NCAAs official RPI

Depends on where you look. StatSheet has them at #103; don't know what RPI they use.
