I will be posting threads for this game in the Big XII forum from now on. It seems more fitting and should make it easier to find (especially with all the expected KU threads this week).

28 people were eliminated in Week 2.
-16 eliminated for loss
-8 eliminated for no pick
-4 eliminated for picking the same opponent 2 weeks in a row.

Big XII MBB Survivor Rules
1- Pick a team each week you feel will win one of their conference games (non-conference games do not count).
2- Choose one game during the week that your chosen team "must win".
3- Your team and "must win" game pick must be submitted before tip-off for the game to count.
4- If your team wins the "must win" game, you move on!
5- After you choose a team, you may NOT pick them again.
6- You may NOT pick against a team in consecutive weeks.....meaning nobody can pick against Texas Tech (or any other team) 2 weeks in a row
7- If you submit a team you have already chosen, a team you're not supposed to pick, or don't submit a pick for the week.... you are eliminated
8- Each week starts on Saturday (Friday in Week 10) and ends on Wednesday.
9- Editing of a post containing a pick is prohibited after tip-off of the week's first game.
10- Last man standing wins

Bonus points for tiebreaker
Bonus points can be gained in 2 ways:
1- Road victory by chosen team in "must win" game (+1).
2- Chosen team winning 2 conference games in the week (+1). The team pick must be submitted before the team's first game of the week to be eligible for this bonus point.
In the event of the tie at the end of the competition, the sum of the bonus points will determine the winner.

Week 3 games are below. Post your team and must win game in this thread.

Tough week.

I'll say Oklahoma over Oklahoma State. I'm guessing they'll bounce back after their two embarrassing losses last week. Plus, OSU just doesn't strike me as a top-25 team at the moment.

Remember rule #6 - You may NOT pick against a team in consecutive weeks. Lost 4 people last week due to this rule and we may lose another this week.

9 people have yet to pick.

**** I guess it's too late to switch. I forgot I picked against TCU this week.

If I can, Okie St. vs Tech
