Officially a three-horse race to see who escapes the indignity of being the one team to miss the Big 12 tourney. With three more weekends left, Baylor (5-13) is ahead in wins, followed by our Cats (4-11) and KU (3-12). Baylor's got K-State (a) and Okie State (h) left, while we have KU (h), WVU (a) and Baylor (h) and KU has K-State (a), TCU (h) and Texas (a).
We have the most favorable schedule, particularly considering that we play fairly well at home and like dogshit on the road. But, we also have known loser Pete Hughes calling the shots.
Fun fact: since the league went down to nine playing teams in 2012, KU and K-State are tied for the most seasons not making the tourney with three each. Next on the list? Mighty Texas, which has missed twice (2019, 2013). Tech is the only other team to miss the Big 12 tourney in that stretch (2012).
