Really bad loss, but we’ve lost to Tech on the road in the past when they were really bad. I’m still hopeful for 12-6.

Texas also lost at Okie State. It isn't easy to win on the road

Iowa State has only won in Waco what, 3 times ever? Maybe reset your expectations. Conference road games are hard. The 2013 team went 11-7 in conference and earned a 3 seed in the ncaas. Chill.

when we get momentum. In every sport. It gets old. Baylor should not have even hung with us. I know you guys won’t like this post but it’s true.

Grow up and act like an adult. What a pathetic way for a grown man to act.

*In walks a "real grown man"*

You're both overreacting. Pop a melatonin and sleep it off.

It would be fun if we won the big 12 but we can’t if we can’t be bad teams on the road.

I could think of lots of fun things to do again that happened 20 years ago but like most things, that's not how life goes.

Saying that "we always choke in every sport" might be a little over the top. Disappointing loss for sure, but not sure that leads to "we always choke in every sport".

This is the type of games you have to win if you want to win a Big 12 title . Lard was a huge loss in this game he needs to get healthy and go steal one on the road.

He was really playing well in the game, and I thought he would be a big part of this game. Hopefully he only has a minor sprain and can get back soon.

Yep, there goes our 3 seed in the NCAAs.

Need to work on hitting open shots. Yes, we got mauled on that very last shot. But we shouldn't have been in a position of needing a call by the refs to bail us out. The key shot of the game was roughly about a little over a minute left, we were up 2, and Wigginton misses a WIDE OPEN 2 points. We would have been up 4 and in control. Instead, Baylor ties it, and the rest was history.

Well if that means like a 4 or 5 seed of just getting in the tournament (real first round preferred), fantastic.

Texas is also a crappy team with possibly the worst coach in the conference. Them losing on the road is never surprising.
I don't know. They have a few bad losses, but they've also won at K-State (yeah they're not good right now, but a road win is a road win), Purdue, and North Carolina. Point is road games are tough.

I don’t see how he’s acting like a child here? Part of being a fan is getting emotionally invested. It’s okay to be upset sometimes. Note that he wasn’t calling for Prohm’s head or anything of the sort.

Emotional generalizations are childish.

Reason #1 why it is a dumb generalization just this last fall we won every game they should have in the last 8 weeks of the season. The two they lost were Texas and WSU - both damn good teams.

Don't encourage trollishness.

I’m just not at all impressed with KSU without Wade. I think Stokes was also missing that game.
