About to open up w/us vs OSU... low expectations, but hey we're pretty evenly matched.

I think we can beat OSU but i'm not sure after that. We definately dont belong in the NCAA tourney, we'd be much better off in the NIT

The NIT is for the 66th to 130th best teams out of 330 in D1 college basketball. I'd hardly call that the "LOSERS" bracket --------------------   |

i think it's just a privilege to be given an invite to any post season tournament.
we could sit at home like we did a few years ago. half of college football plays in a bowl game, so half of college basketball plays in a tournament. -------------------- Don't sweat the petty, pet the sweaty.

Typical impala retard reasoning Reality check: Texas Tech isn't very good. And now that their one link to national prominence has retired, they'll slip back into obscurity With teams like Florida and Ohio State (the two teams who played for the NC last year) likely to end up in the NIT, Tech should feel honored to get a bid from them. But you won't have to worry about the embarrasment of winning the "LOSERS" tourney....Tech will probably get their asses handed to them in the first or second round and get knocked out -------------------- |

Oh I'd much rather be in the NIT than nothing at all. I just don't see how anyone coule think we'd be "better off" in the NIT than the NCAA.

I'm fine with the NIT, fucking hell you guys take the tiniest word and run with it don't ya? All I was doing was disagreeing with jw that we wouldn't be "better off" in the NIT than the NCAA. shit. |

Oh, and using the Big 12 thing as an excuse. Maybe Tech belongs in one of those smaller, less competitive conferences. I don't know how many times I've glanced over at the TV and seen Tech getting blown out by 25 or 30 points against a conference opponent. Losing by 44 to aggy? Jesus Christ

Jesus Christ I didn't use it as an excuse. I said I expect more out of a big 12 team. Where would you expect a big 12 team to be in that list of 300? And if they're so bad perhaps you can explain why your precious #5 UT couldn't beat them? in other news, charlie burgess is kickin ass |
