I'm reminded of when KU got blown out by a mediocre OSU team on the last weekend of the season in 2018 after they already clinched the B12. That group went on to the FF. [Reply]
Would have preferred Self to just rest the starters since this is a meaningless game. Especially now knowing we would come out with such lack of intensity [Reply]

He was never going to do that. Too much competitive pride. The players themselves certainly lacked that in this one though. [Reply]

With a win, definitely. With a loss, definitely not the overall #1 seed. If we lose we will have to win the tournament to get it and hope Houston stumbles. The committee looks at predictive metrics too much for us to get it even if deserving.
I dont see anywhere Lunardi is saying KU is the overall #1 even if they lose to Texas. [Reply]

A loss to a top 10 on the road shouldn't make any real difference at this point. KU either has a better resume than these teams or they don't (and in Houston's case, it's very clear). [Reply]
