Monday night roundball

Neither team is bad. Season is a marathon, teams get wore down and know each others tendencies. Parity is the name of the game this year.
 
I'm sure neutral observers of our Maryland thought the same thing since neither team could shoot for sh!t. It's just one game and neither are bad. This Board's collective hate for the B12 is weird.
I don't hate the Big12 at all. I'm just really really sick of them sucking. Same goes for football.

agree, both those teams are good. Oklahomas downfall may be their frontcourt if their shots aren't falling in the tourney.
 
Finish was much better than the 1st half, which is why I changed the thread title. Hield still found a way to produce when his shot wasn't falling. Utoff has been increasing his defensive intensity
 
The whole Big12 sucks. . . . yet again.
Huh??? Something's amiss, Just read on the Clone forum that the B1G sucks.

Are both forums right or are they both wrong?

One thing I can be sure of, tho. Oklahoma will never be out of the top ten for the rest of the season in the rankings regardless how many more games they lose.

Simple answer: Message boards suck.

When in doubt, assume the message board is wrong. Twitter on the other hand, well you can safely assume that's all true!

They kind of help passing the time at this time of the year. Plus, since my wife won't put up with my bullshit, I can ignore her and post here.

Win/Win

Yet they are 5-2 against the BIG this year, including the B12's 6th place team beating the BIG's 1st place team. Those are facts, but I'm sure you will argue it somehow...

It seems to have worked, Iowa hasn't dominated someone and then folded since. I never dreamed that would look like such a quality win for ISU, and conversely, I never thought it would look like anything less than Iowa's best loss.

One thing between the B12 and B1G seems clear. ISU seems to be one of the better actual team's in the B12, and I think this will cost teams like Oklahoma in March. Oklahoma always reverts to Buddy Hield 1 on 1 vs. the other team, almost like NBA style. Texas was doing the same thing last night. B1G teams that do that lose.

ISU is 6th? wow, I didn't realize they'd slipped that far, and don't expect that to hold.

3 of your 5 wins come against MN and IL, teams that are a combined 3-19 in the B1g and hardly represent the level of talent in the b1g. If you really feel that gives you bragging rights, then that is pretty sad.

Other than that you're 2-2 counting your 1pt win at home :). The other win is OU beating WI. A decent win, but your 2nd place team(and highest ranked) beating our 7th team in oklahoma, isn't exactly crazy. MSU beating KU would seem more impressive to me. MI beating TX seems decent as well. Our 6th place team beat your 4th team(a team that beat your 1st team, isu and almost beat OU). Both games on neutral courts!!
