Big 12 Basketball Beat '23-24

[Lobot]

Part way through the schedule, I'm surprised that UCF and Oklahoma are doing this well and surprised that Texas and OK St. are doing this poorly.

yep. ucf came back from big deficits to both KU and UT - I think they sold their collective soul or something. UT should be 0-4 - UC let them off the hook.

I was sure that UCF was going to be sitting in the basement -- solid start from them.

And WVU is probably at least a bit better than their #s suggest, as they got some 2-time transfers eligible and now have probably started settling into their roles.

UCF today versus Houston:

Points: 42
FG: 7-for-44 (15.9%)
2PT: 3-for-23 (13.0%)

Houston defends.. Although if you look at the stats for that game, Houston wasn't all that much better because UCF defends.

And Kansas just lost at West Virginia. Think they’ll be ready to go on Monday?

The Big 12 is planning on fining UC for the students storming the court after the TCU game. They referenced two games over the weekend where fans stormed the court and players were injured. Source: 55 KRC radio news update.

The fine is $25K and the administration knew it was coming as soon as it happened.

I don't mind the court storm but worth pointing out TCU is now #37 in the NET (so 7 spots removed from even being a Quad 1 win...)

Horns and especially Dylan DIsu are destroying OU at home right now. 74-58 with 2:00 minutes and change.

A little Coach vs Coach drama last night at ISU.

Apparently Jerome Tang had a complaint about fans throwing things at the K-State bench and went to the table to ask TJ Otzelberger to say something to the crowd. Oztelberger went nuts and tried to get Tang T'd up for leaving the coaching box.

According to Kellis Robinett of The Wichita Eagle, Tang’s frustration stemmed from his belief that Iowa State had planted team representatives in the stands behind the Kansas State bench to steal signs during huddles. Tang and his staff were reportedly concerned that the representatives were then texting that information into the Iowa State huddles.

Your scoreboard for this weekend. Looks like a good one starting early with Houston and K- State
