A lone Providence rebounder getting the offensive board over three Sooners is going to give an indication of how this game is going to go.

The good news is that this makes the Big XII look better if their seventh best team is actually holding their own. Which is nice for bragging rights purposes.

Also, am I really getting lectured by a Dallas Cowboys fan over martyrdom about a historically successful franchise. Having said that, the coolest team in the tournament is probably Texas Tech, and it's really difficult for me to admit it, but there it is.

shirts and skins posted:it might be Kansas instead? I've already been yelled at today, but gently caress it - Azubuike probably won't stay healthy enough throughout this tournament, and that puts a ceiling on how far Kansas can go past, say, Bagley or even West Virginia. Also, Tech has been better than them all year long. Nova unless Duke never has a cold game, in which case, welcome to hell.

Regardless of whoever wins, I'm going with this hot take: Knox is the only "good" player in Kentucky, the rest of them are really raw projects who never figured out how to get consistent. Which is what you'd expect of freshmen, just not Calipari freshman. Knox is legit, though.
