TCU poses some significant matchup issues in that they have very athletic, switchable players all over the court that make it tough for us to guard them effectively. They're also easily playing their best ball all year right now.
That said, I think KU was tight as hell in both games last week due to the B12 title being on the line. I'd expect much more fluid offense today and a win in the end. [Reply]

I was actually happy to see us either play Texas or TCU again in this round.
Those two teams have defended us as well as anyone. Getting some more experience against that type of defense and (possibly) Tech in the Championship will be good going into the big tourney. [Reply]

Yesterday everyone was talking about the one spot belonging to us or Baylor. And it would stand to reason that the winner of the best conference deserves a 1, but if history serves, I’m guessing they’re looking for any reason to get puke on the 1 line [Reply]
Duke isn't getting a 1 seed. They don't have the resume for it and their conference is awful. They can't even amass enough quality wins even if they do win the ACC tournament.
It's probably going to be KU, UK or BU for 2 spots right now. [Reply]

They are Duke. They will get by far the benefit of the doubt, even if deserved. [Reply]
