Big 12 a giant steamroller in basketball

[Cuyahoga Falls Eers]

UConn easily handled 8-2 St. Bonaventure today, 74-64, making WVU’s upset of #15 UConn look better and better.


Also, Oklahoma upset #12 Arkansas, 88-66, today.

And #8 Kansas steamrollered Missouri, 102-65.

In the latest national rankings, Baylor is #2, Texas #7, Kansas #8, Iowa State #17.


That gives WVU EIGHT games against Top 25 teams in the Big 12 plus the UConn upset. NINE games against Top 25 teams. Not exactly a creampuff schedule, eh?

WVU will resume its one-loss season at 4 p.m. Sunday against visiting Kent State at 4 p.m. on ESPN2.

This part of the schedule is mostly scrimmage/teaching games with the occasional U Conn as a mid semester test. The real season starts against the Big 12. The finals are the NCAA Tournament.

ACCURATE. BUT THE PRELIMINARIES ARE FUN TO WATCH FOR ME ANWAY, WHEN WVU IS PLAYING.

I know it's a long way till March Madness but I am encouraged by early signs from WVU and the Big 12. Four in the Top 25, a number that will hold steady even if the names of the schools change. That's 1/6th the total of teams in the Top 25! By only 10 schools.

11 Big East schools. 14 in Big 10. 8 in Ivy League. 12 in Pac-12. 14 in Southeastern Conference. 15 in the Atlantic Coast Conference. That only leaves 21 spots for the 64 schools in these conferences, plus better teams like Gonzaga in lower conferences.

Big 12: 4 for 10. 40% All else: 21 for 64. 32.8%
