I saw where they were shooting for this Sat vs Kansas for Lee's return.
It is going to be interesting with Lee coming back. I feel like K-State is better without her. They are much more aggressive defensively without her and their offense moves better without her because she was the focal point. They beat TCU without her, and they were undersized against them.

Yes, they've had two conference losses when she was out. The loss at Colorado was the first game after she went out, on the road in altitude, and when they lost at OSU, they couldn't hit the broad side of a barn.

22 turnovers for K-State, and there's still 4:00 left.

WVU opponent turnovers in Big 12 play:
19, 23, 31, 26, 24, 30, 25, 19, 23, 21, 29, 26, 16, 24

Something of interest is that Texas is likely to tie for the SEC regular season title. In their last three games they have beaten South Carolina, Kentucky and LSU. Ironically they only had ONE shared title in the Big 12 in the past 20 years (shared title with Oklahoma in 2023).

If Texas & SC tie for the regular season title, the top seed in the SEC Tournament would come down to a coin flip.

I was just about to post this. Hat tip to Louisville WBB.
Whether we are supposed to or not, I purposely tell each team, which way they are going at beginning and after half. Especially at half time, I come out such as "White team, you are on defense on that side of the court, Blue team, your ball on the side at midcourt, going that direction (of course I am pointing out directions and court sides to them". Of course, I am doing high school and JH so kids get cornfused easily.

It may not end up mattering given the scrum at the top too, but I’m cheering for us sneaking up to sixth. Seems unlikely but maybe one of those four loss teams drops a few more. My initial reason was I would rather not go against TCU if we could avoid it, but it’s hard to predict where they end up. I’m not really scared of them even in particular, just would rather some of the others. If we play our best, I think we can beat any of them. If not, well, we’ve seen what happens.
