I do not want to face WVU or OU in KC. I do want to play Baylor.

Curious why WVU? The only team of those three we've swept. Seems like if we're built to beat anybody it's a team that relies on the press for easy buckets and struggles to score in the half court.

My list would be

1. OU
2. Baylor - a shot at revenge would be pretty great though
3. KU
4. WVU

The whole trying to beat a team 3 times. It is never easy.

I just have to say that speculating whether we are a 2, 3, or 4 is a whole lot more fun than knowing for weeks that we're #10/10 (or 12/12).

Perfect. After tonight's game, would you be able to post the updated results? It will just be easier to look at with 32 scenarios instead of 64.
Oh, absolutely, and I completely agree. Just trying to get some info out there in the meantime for anybody who wanted to dig in.

One scenario that (I think) no one has mentioned would be TCU beating OSU tonight. That would put us at 2 or 3 with an ISU win regardless of the other Saturday outcomes. With an ISU loss than it is still completely dependent on the other games.

No it wouldn't. That game is irrelevent. We are a 2 or 3 with a win already.

If we get a 2, my prediction is we will beat #7-seed Texas, #3-seed Oklahoma, and #4-seed Baylor en route to a tournament championship.

If Tech upsets Baylor then the 4 seed is off the table for ISU. Of the 16 scenarios in relevant games, if ISU beats TCU then there are only 2 scenarios where ISU is not the 2 seed. ISU cannot win and be the 4 seed. If Tech upsets Baylor and ISU beats TCU, there is no other outcome for ISU but a 2 seed.

Go Red Raiders.

Based on where things are today, frankly I prefer the #2 vs the #1.

ISU would get winner of Tech vs OSU. KU gets winner of Texas vs TCU. I think ISU has the better draw there.

Next round, provided ISU and KU win, ISU gets winner of OU and KSU. KU gets winner of WVU and Baylor. Again, I think ISU has the better draw.

That is as of right now - a lot can change this weekend.

I find it interesting that k-state is either a 6 or 8. No possibility of a 7.
