The BigXII shot itself in the foot yesterday with the round-robin setup. 4 of the 5 P5 conferences have a championship game. The higher seed in each of those games got into the playoffs...whether those are the 4 top teams or not. I don't think FSU or OSU are a top 4 team...but that's for another thread.
The Big12 is going to be relying on the lower seed to win one of these championship games from her on out if they choose not to have a B12 CCG. IMO, that isn't a good way to get your conference represented in the playoffs...
The round-robin is cute...but until they expand to 8 teams. The B12 could find themselves in this situation more often than Not.
The Baylor vs KSU was the championship argument is flawed as is the B12 could have had 2 teams in the playoffs...
So....to get the B12 back to....12 teams, what two teams would you add?
The hits are hearing how the mutts might finally lock down the state for football and basketball. Coming just as soon as Kansas getting that big boy bid. [Reply]
I do really enjoy rehashing these same tired arguments. Keeps the hate simmering and this is the only interesting sports thing I can find to talk about right now. Love you guys! [Reply]

When the FB team threatened to forfeit a game then ran the University President off, their fans said it would be great for recruiting black athletes. [Reply]

Man, these CBB National Championships really bring out the mental gymnastics.
I mean, it's not surprising when Kansas holds the most important bowl victory of the two schools in the only sport that matters on top of irrelevant NCs in basketball... eventually there's just no defending being mediocre in the Big 12 North and awful in the SEC when "little brother" is showing you up so badly.
If Kansas goes B1G, then I guess that means the SEC is the only conference that matters? Do the schools themselves become irrelevant and we start comparing pizza hangouts in Columbia and Lawrence? Shakespeare's is all that matters! :-) [Reply]

Then Iowa State fans can bring up wrestling and that is like Burrito King of sports*.
*I have no idea if Burrito King still exists in Lawrence but I sure as hell hope not.
I looked recently and Burrito King was still there.
Their breakfast Burrito was great, especially if you were there late enough in the morning they had rice ready, sub it in for the beans. Perfect hangover food. [Reply]
