If only the ball was oblong: Big 12 bids over/under

[pissclams]

welp, last night's results are 100% proof that ol' flood aggie is on the outside looking in

[Kat Kid]

3 bids.  zacker, I got there first.  Just so you know.

WVU escapes against VT.  This game reminded me just how awful Bob Knight is as an analyst.  Can't believe they pared him with Boog,  I bet he sent a text to Gottlieb at halftime cursing him for leaving.

yes, bizzare combo

Man this UT UCLA game is painful.  The alternative is Marquette beating the hell out of Wisconsin.  Buzz rocking the black turtleneck as a tribute to Majerus.  Got the bald head right, he's about 150 lbs short though.  Buzz usually looks smooth, but he looks pud in the turtleneck, looks like a child wearing ill fitting clothes.

Is it funnier that this game is called the "Proton Therapy Showcase" or that there are so few people in Reliant Stadium that the PA announcer is actually echoing off of the empty seats?

Yeah. I briefly considered changing it over to some relatively worthless La Liga match. Brutal lineup tonight.

Texas loses to a middle of the table Pac 12 team.  Had an 8 point lead with under 2 minutes left, 1 FG made the last 4:30

this makes me think you had expectations for Texas?

You rough ridin' thought wrong.  Do you know the point of the thread?

This whole thread is my idea and zack made it ahit.  Now. I know how little Richard felt when the Beatles came to America.

Aware sys, you're better than December comparative scoring to try to prove a point.

[kougar24]

What a depressing P66 season this is going to be. Feels bad man.

[sys]

Aware sys, you're better than December comparative scoring to try to prove a point.

it's not that comparative scores aren't a valid means of determining a team's worth.  it's that one datum tells you little.  the same is true of osu v. ncsu.  right now there is little that tells me how good osu is.  my guess is somewhere between 30 and 50 or so.  i think wichita st is better.

You also keep mentioning NCSU, I'm not not using that game as the be all end all of my evaluation, are you?  My eyes are much more important than the results of that one game in November.  They have an issue with their front court and with their coach, but they won't need to be strong in these areas to win 12 in this conference this year.  If they can get a home court advantage again I might go beyond 12 for them.

what else have they done?  i haven't seen them play, so i'm just looking at what i remember from last year and their results so far.

That Baylor loss to NW looks pretty rough ridin' bad.  Sandwiched around that road win, NW was blown out at their place by Maryland and Butler and lost to UIC (the flames!).  I mean
