It's funny/amazing how this year and last year seem to match up statistically. I think people remember how the season ended last year and seem to think that this year has been a dud because we've lost a few games. We also had a couple of stars last year, where this year we have a more balanced team. It is really stacking up like last year. I may be more excited about the finish to our season that a lot of the negative Nancies around here, so rip me if you'd like, but I don't see a Big 12 championship or Final Four appearance out of the question.

The nice thing is last year we HAD to get good production out of 2 of the big 3 (Mel, Kane, Niang) to win a game it seemed like, this year we have so many more options

Big wins: Iowa, KU, WVU
Bad losses: USC, TT

Jekyll and Hyde.
Need to show up every night on defense in case offense is bad.

Iowa isn't a big win, but Arkansas is. So was WVU and a few others.
It's an outstanding season, and one of our best ever. People should be able to see that by now.
Iowa was a big win on the road at a time we needed one.

It is big time now....7 games left, 4 are on the road...This is when teams make their mark in the season....We are floating with heads above water...we can either keep climbing or just keep bobbin'!

Let's aim for 5-2 for the last 7 games!
