    We are still on pace to finish 4th in the Big 12 which is important due to seeding. KState has had a cake walk of a schedule so far and are about to face some tougher challenges.

    That's me, "delusional" fanatic, I thought we'd win and I'm just now clawing my way back from a dark pit of despair and depression. I still have a Fennelly quote on my monitor: "[e]very possession in a game could be the deciding one." We may remember the flurry of the last minute, but, each of those first half TO's was just as important. I don't have the expertise to judge play - it appeared at times that we played poorly, but, the scappy play of their quick guards also had a role. Even so, we could have played better and having a close game, on the road against OU, I take as an indication we may/should lose no more this side of the Big12 semi-finals, if then. That said, if we play poorly in any remaining game, we can lose. I have a good feeling from here on out.

    I'm as "delusional" as you are BEC. I not only thought we could win, I still think we should have won. Frustrating? Yes. Depressing? A little bit. I'm like you. There isn't a single game remaining on the schedule that these ladies shouldn't win. Lots of potential potholes though.
