I want to say OU, but as much as the Ags have sucked over the course of the past century or so, I have to give it to A&M. Oklahoma's tough, though, and I could see them in the Final Four.

I think A&M will drop 4 more and thats it. Those games will be: @ Oklahoma, OSU, @ UT, and @ OSU. I think we can take Iowa St., Texas Tech, Missouri, and Baylor at home. Any of our away games worry me.

They match up well on the inside and Law may be the only guard in the Big XII quick enough to defend Lucas.

Since I am going to that game I really hope they win at home against OSU!

I would love to see them win it at home, but with the way they have been playing since the UT game, I dont know how its going to go. OU destroyed us inside. We just arent disciplined yet. We had three guys foul out last night. Joseph Jones was gone at the beginning of the second half. Thats our big problem, we foul WAY too much.

Maybe, but the home court advantage this year has been huge. You're right about the discipline. The mental part... making it through the whole season, even the tough parts... are what worries me the most.

OU's schedule is what has them where they are now. They've played UT and OSU at home and get KU at home too. As one of the announcers said during the Texas/OU game, remember, Oklahoma still has to travel to Austin and Stillwater. So those games both teams will get back.

Watch for the upset - Texas over KU. I didn't say it will happen, but it's possible.

And I don't know if you can call A&M the "best story out of the Big 12". A cupcake OOC schedule has chalked up the double-digits in the win column. And they still have a losing record in conference play, albeit much better than in years past.

To be honest, there is no "best story". Everything that is happening was predicted. But if I had to give a "surprise" team award, it would be Texas Tech.
