The Big 12 announced their TV games for the October 18th weekend.
ABC will wait until this Sunday to decide whether Texas-Mizzou is the 2:30 or 7 pm slot. Kansas-Oklahoma will get the other ABC slot. I’d guess the winner of the Red River Shootout will be the primetime telecast.
If Texas wins, Austin will likely host another primetime #1 vs #2 regular season game. Nice. First things, first…the Dirt Burglars.

Outstanding “around the horn” type article. Can’t believe it’s almost 6 months until college football. The “U” from ESPN, while fun was nothing more than a 90 minute commercial for the greatness of Miami football. It would have been better if someone, other than a fan, took a critical look at that

Hearing nothing that leads me to believe Cory Joseph is on his way to save Barnes’ ‘offense’. Hope this staff is making some contingency plans.

Nickel,
Yea, I think AB may move if he can get assurances he won’t slide past the teens. Going 25 or so is a much different story. I think he should probably come back if he’s in the mid-20’s but not having a clear vision of what the rookie salary scale might look like
GoHornsGo90 commented on the blog post Bradley or Hamilton? 1 hour, 31 minutes ago
The great thing about Joseph is he is a hard worker and great defender, just like Avery. This means he won’t be in the dog house like JH and JBC were all season fro their terrible defense and effort. He is also a perfect pick and roll/pick and pop PG who is smart and always
GoHornsGo90 commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page 1 hour, 37 minutes ago
Don’t see Bradley as a kind of guy that goes through that kind of disappointment, sees how unprepared for the NBA he is, and goes to “get his” in the draft. Maybe Hamilton, but not AB.

we will be better than an 8 seed if all 3 of those come back. i’ll be adjusting my expectations accordingly which will make season much better
Nickel Rover commented on the blog post Texas Turns the Page 2 hours, 24 minutes ago
Hmm, great article, more or less of the same subject I wrote on for today.
I think we are in exact agreement that Bradley should probably go if his draft grade holds steady in the 15-25 range because he’ll probably not get a better contract if he waits but simply demonstrate his ceiling as a player.

…but by conference play, we will HAVE to start Thompson if we want to optimize our potential.
Ha ha ha ha! Ha ha ha ha!
Pains me to hear that, as we all pined for Hamilton to start all season long (except ipowers, that is). What makes you think it will be different with a

Basketball:
Bradley or Hamilton? In an ideal world they are both back next season. Withought knowing how well they are responding to Barnes’ style or what kind of draft grade they are looking for it’s hard to project what they will do.
Bradley has been listed as a mid-first round guy but I have trouble seeing it.

Was pretty disappointed with OSU’s shitburger last night though. I’ve never seen Anderson so bad…almost looked hurt. 5-2 first round isn’t bad though.
We really ought to get 4 team into the Sweet 16 though, with only Missouri having much of an excuse to not advance.

Texoz,
As much as we need to find an identity on offense, we also need to address our defensive schemes. If JCB and JH are two big contributors and we play a 6′6″ guy at 4 and a foul prone freshman in the middle then we need to re-examine our principles on defense. We

I ended up going the other way and taking St Mary’s. Unfortunately, we’ve all become experts at basketball team collapses this year and Villanova’s collapse looks too familiar.
I really like Washington today for the reasons you mentioned. I have them in my Calcutta too so I have a lot riding on them.

Barnes has lost two longtime assistants and gained Paulino and Ogden–two guys who really only know what he’s taught them. Seems like he should look to the outside for some methodology.
Two, got to recruit fewer projects. Fewer spindly white guys that need to gain 30 pounds of muscle. Fewer all-purpose guards who you

There were lots of fireworks and exciting games in this region. Let’s start at the top.

Getting off a sinking ship. Bellotti is supposedly very much like Mack in his affinity for the media. I’ve always wondered about the assumption that Mack would be happy as the Texas AD when he could just go get a cushy analyst job. Mack clapping in studio would be great TV, no??

AAS wrote a dumbed down version of this subject today. Barnes says he’s bringing in another guard. Good, because I feel very confident in our depth in the front court. Alexei, white stiff #1, and white stiff #2 make me ooze with confidence especially behind a true freshman and undersized 4…….

Hamilton needs 1-2 years to seriously work on the deficiencies in his game. He goes now, and in a couple of years he’s “whatever happened to …?”. The risk is while he might get drafted now on potential, if he can’t/won’t develop as a player he won’t even have that to offer in

Ray, what exactly is Okie Light going to “expose” Mizzou on? Okie Light has a nice rushing offense — no. 2 in the country. Nevada also had a nice rushing O — no. 4 in the country. MU put up 69 points on the Wolfpack and held them to 17. Plus we took their gaudy 6.18 yard average and held them to 4.14 and one TD.
The only team to beat Mizzou in the last two years, OU, was able to get pressure on Chase Daniel with its 4 down linemen. No way Okie State does that.
This one’s not even close. 52-17 MU

You shouldn’t put Nevada and OSU in the same sentence. OSU has Big 12 talent and Nevada is well, Nevada. Jschool cocaine is a hell of a drug. 52-17? Really..? The ‘76 Steelers couldn’t hold the Cowboys to 17 pts. If you don’t think this one will be close you are kidding yourself. Be prepared to eat crow and or shit come Saturday.

Mizzou and wet dog shit. Now that is an analogy I can stand behind! OSU’s 3 backs average 7.4 ypc and have 20 total td’s. Nevada they are not. I do agree the only way OSU’s front four gets a sack is if Daniel trips over one of them after they get pancaked. Just like the entire cast of Seinfeld, Mizzou will start to feel the pressure of being grossly overrated and OSU has nothing to lose. Sounds like a recipe for an ass raping.

First of all who cares and second of all its just sad all the way around. The sun will probably shine on Mizzouri’s ass a few weeks longer but they will eventually get donkey punched and facial’d by the scorching case of jock itch that is the University of Oklahoma.
