Gene Honda Civic Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 I'm bummed about the Winston-Salem State game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heads22 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Iowa State is the 10th or 11th best team in the conference. They should be better than Colorado, but may not even beat them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmags Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 if we go 9-7 in the big 12 we can make the tourney. i think our press will screw with a few teams but we are pretty bad at rebounding. Lawrence is dynomite for threes and hannah is a baller. I think this year we'll make a splash just in the fact that playing against anderson is going to be a b-word to prepare for. I'm excited.

danman31 Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 QUOTE(Heads22 @ Dec 19, 2006 -> 10:39 PM) Missouri isn't likely a top half of the conference team in the Big 12. Better teams include Kansas, A&M, Oklahoma State, Texas, Texas Tech, Kansas State and possibly Baylor. Then again, a compentent coach might make a difference. Tech and Kansas State? Are you serious? K State is a different team with Walker, but Tech?! Tech has won at Arkansas and lost at Stanford as well as a couple top 25 road losses. They've proven as much as Mizzou to this point, I doubt they are a better team. I would have agreed with Baylor earlier, but the Bears have struggled so far this year. QUOTE(Jimbo @ Dec 19, 2006 -> 10:47 PM) Mizzou is maybe the 8th best team in the big 12. KU, A&M, Texas, Tech, OU, Ok State, Baylor, then ISU and Mizzou This is about as easy as you can get. ISU and OU are horrible. How can you put OU ahead of OSU? It's also a conveniently biased list as you have K State lower than they probably belong as well. KU #1, MU and KSU very low. Good to know you think with a clear head. Geez, Mizzou almost (and should have if they could grab a clutch rebound) beat Illinois and they are getting hated on. I don't mean to claim a moral victory, but Mizzou is probably a bubble team come the end of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tech is very tough at home, with their loony tunes fans. KSate with Walker is blah, Coach Thuggins is not long for that job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 Nobody cares, but I'm extremely jacked to go see SIU play live for the first time since graduation in 2001. Will be odd driving through campus today. Too bad no college girls will be around to goggle at. Will also stop at 710 or the Bookstore to get a hoodie. Go Dawgs!

thedoctor Posted December 20, 2006 Share Posted December 20, 2006 first off, due to the nature of the rivalry i think it's pretty shallow to just look at who missouri played previously, add that to the result of the illinois game and draw any conclusions about anything. with last year excepted, missouri and illinois generally play each other really, really tough. with all that said, i've seen illinois three times now and am thoroughly unimpressed. this is easily the worst team we've fielded in quite some time. this team is inconsistent, lacks quicks in the backcourt, and has no real leader or go-to person. all that said, they'll come out of the non-con with at least 12 wins, and will probably win at least 10 in the big ten and earn a tournament berth. however, that's more of an indictment of the big ten's weakness this year than any reflection of how good this team is or isn't.
