We could get have Texas end up with the 7 seed with a loss to Kansas State.

Texas is 7 seed with a win and 8 seed with a loss. So they would need to defeat KSU, not lose

Oops. You're right, I read the generator wrong.

If there is anything I have learned from watching basketball today it is that the big12 needs to switch to a multiple bye system. I feel like we shouldn't have to play until Saturday at the earliest.

Every one of the leagues with double byes are still only double byes to the quarterfinals. Big 12 doesn't have enough teams to do that.

Here is an edit of Hacksaw's table.

10 plays 9, winner plays 8, winner plays 7, ..., we play Saturday.

 

[HoopsTournament]

We agree. That is good.

 

[HoopsTournament]

10 plays 9, winner plays 8, winner plays 7, ..., we play Saturday.

One game every night for 9 straight nights (or back-to-back games on same day). That makes logistical sense.

Do I really need jimlads?

 

[cyclones12321]

[HoopsTournament]

1	Kansas

	Oklahoma - win vs. KU, ISU win vs. TCU
	Baylor - ONLY one of ISU and OU win
4	Iowa State - loss to TCU, OU win vs. KU

Do I really need jimlads?

You really think I took you seriously?

 

[jpete24]

We want the bracket where: we win, OU wins, and KSU wins. Probably the easiest path to the Big 12 Championship.

 

[cycloneworld]

Guy at Bring on the cats laid out all the seeding options based on today's results. As we all know, if OU beats KU there is no way we can get 2nd. Period. In one scenario it comes down to OU winning at Tech as the tie breaker. Can't link because on mobile.

I'm starting to think Self would lose on purpose to avoid ISU.

So this is wrong, correct?

 

[jpete24]

So this is wrong, correct?

We control #2. If we win, we keep #2 no matter what. That guy is wrong.

 

[HoopsTournament]

So this is wrong, correct?

Correct that is wrong. We are a #2 seed with a win regardless of what happens in the KU-OU games.

Bring on the Cats probably didn't use mred's generator. I only go by mred and nothing else.

But we want OU to win to keep them on our side of the bracket so we don't have to play Baylor. I would rather play OU than Baylor right now. We also want KSU to beat TU so the first potential game KU has to play is a "desperate" Texas team.

I would rather have OU win for three reasons:

1. Would rather have OU than BU on our side of bracket
2. We would finish only one game back.
3. Kansas must be destroyed.
