Is now outscoring Cuse 42-15 in the second half with 4 to play. 18-24 from deep. If they shoot like that, with their defense, good luck.

They're really good. Their lack of success in the tournament is predictably overstated.

Both of the "good guys" tonight trailing by 9 at half...

If Self retires, I hope we could get Bennett.

TCU can’t score to win this game.

Not looking good.

No help tonight.

GD WVU.

Looks like we didn't kick Vick off the team early enough. 6-4 with him. 5-1 without him.

I think tech could lose at Iowa state, but not sure about kstate losing to Baylor at home. We just have to win ours

12 seasons and counting.

The 1 loss is more telling than the 5 wins, so I'm told.

Which still falls under the law of small numbers.

Bennett certainly knows a lot about small numbers.

If kstate loses to Baylor on Saturday that really would be a miracle.


But for real. Stars have to align in a perfect way, which, they have not at all this season for 15 to happen.

Meh, honestly, we haven't been better than either Kansas State or Tech this year so it really doesn't bug me that the streak ends on a season when we had a ton of injuries and suspensions coincide perfectly with KSU having a bunch of seniors and TT having a local kid develop into a lottery pick. When are all these things going to happen at the same time again? Probably 15 more seasons from now.

We looked so fucking good against OSU though.

Kum Ba Meh.

two wins against OSU, one win against WVU, and an OT win against TCU.

4 wins against teams that are a combined 12-37.

Is that better or worse than the 2-4 stretch we had right before he left which included losses to WVU and UT? The logic is really breaking down here.

Yea. But one shitty game at WVU away from surviving this shitty year and maintaining the streak. That's the part that's unfortunate

There is no excuse for loosing in Morgantown, it cost us the streak.

But if you're just evaluating HOW we've played, the loss at Austin was on par with the OT win at TCU and in Stillwater.

If we're any better without Vick it's a small incremental improvement, I don't think it changes our NCAA tournament projection. We didn't suddenly become a FF frontrunner by loosing Vick.

But...I'm told they're having more fun. So there's that.
