20 wins would be great but who cares u are dancing. It may not be with purty pink panties rottencrotch, but at least it’s a fun selection day
While I think we're in, I think one more win takes away a lot of anxiety. I just don't trust this mentality of SEC and Big 10 get all the perks. I just have a feeling that if it comes down to us or someone from those conferences, we lose out. I think it is really hard to ignore a 20 win team from what I think is the second best conference even though the networks may push SEC and Big 10.

I would care because we lost to a team clearly inferior to us and after yesterday's 2nd half, would want a solid showing.

Besides, we win, we likely lose to Houston and then it is a week off minimum before NCAA play (8 days if we are Fri - Sun pod)

Root for Drake, VCU, Memphis and not UNLV/CSU/Boise in MWC.

Hard to see anybody other than SMC/Gonzaga in WCC now with Williams suspended for SFO.

We are a solid 10 on Bracket Matrix, so we are still a few spots above the PIGs.
 
I’d like to get one win to secure 20 on the season which is universally a benchmark, and a good feather in the cap for the coach and the program, and then rest up for the dance.
Agree. WE We will be playing either COLORADO OR TCU. WE CAN AND HAVE BEATEN BOTH. Based on whether the refs blow or swallow their whistles we should be in great shape to win the first game.
 
We need one more to be sure, already see ESPN pimping OU despite their sh!t conference record. They and a few others like that make a run in their conference tourneys and we're out if we are one and done.
This is what I don't trust. I even heard people saying if UNC beat Duke yesterday, they deserved to be in the field. They have one Quad 1 win. Its bad enough them shilling for an awful ACC team, but even worse when they are throwing around teams that are 6-12 in conference play.

I don’t get the NET. UNC is 1-11 in Quad 1. We’re 6-10. UNC is ranked #40 and we’re #47. WTF
 
I don't understand it either, I see Boise State was ahead of us in one of the Net sites.....who have they beat?
Clemson
St Mary's
New Mexico
Utah St

They're 1 spot ahead of us on KenPom.

This is dumb. You’re trying to build momentum at the end of the year, not bury it. JFC at trying not to win conference championship games.
Screw the Big 12 waste of time. Only the Dance matters.
 
We’ve been seeded to win 1 game in the Big 12 Tournament. We should get that win. Then hopefully Houston can fall victim to the one and done mentality.
