Time to start scheduling worth a [ Finebaum ] in non conference play.

Both us and Oklahoma went 7-11 in the Big 12, we made it further than them in the Big 12 tournament

But because we schedule like cowards in non conference and Oklahoma scheduled up and actually played good teams, they got in.

Oklahoma had the 11th ranked non conference SOS.

There you go.

Dixon had better schedule a soft pre-season with what we have coming back.

We should be good next year. Bane and Noi will score and Samuels will be even better. Big question is PG and health of Mayen/improvement of Barlow. If the frosh can give us some depth, we should be fine.

Or beat Kansas when you have a 5 point lead with a minute left.

You can easily make the argument that our non con schedule was exactly what we needed. Got us lots of wins and was just good enough to give us a great chance of getting in DESPITE a 7-11 conference record. Losing 11 conference games seems like a much bigger issue than who we scheduled.

I think Temple's inclusion is the biggest travesty

They are basically in for beating Houston and UCF at home. Thats it.

We had a top 35 SOS. Win more than 3 Quadrant 1 games or hold on to 21 wins by beating KSU in the tournament and we are in.

Schools with MUCH bigger followings than TCU were left out and schools like Temple and Belmont were in. No way that was a business decision.

Yeah, look at Ohio State, 8-12 in Big 10, non conference schedule much worse than ours , ranked 154 vs 109 per Warren Nolan, but magically in as 11th seed

I think we have a way better case than Ohio St, but we need to get passed hoping to win just enough Big 12 games to get in. 7-11 is asking to be left out. As for playing a tougher non-conference schedule, I would do it to improve our play once we get to conference. Look at Texas, playing a ridiculous non-conference schedule didn't help them all, in fact it probably hurt them.

There you go.
OU has 400,000 alumni, we have 50k. We have to just win and remove the BS excuses the committee will always have.

Make your Free Throws, you beat Kansas and blow out WVU.

Schedule was fine, fundamentals sucked.
