This board is weird. I don't care about Kansas either way and anything good for TCU I'm not a fan of.

Bright side - LB is now free to make his way to the AAC tournament.

Honestly, I think TCU being decent in basketball might be the only way to get this rivalry back to actually feeling like a rivalry. That or TCU getting a lot worse at football.

We had one until he got fired. A dedicated seat on the committee is a bit much to ask for.

Maybe he'll be at one of the weekend games? After all, KU is done for the week!

I'll take the TCU win over Kansas as it will boos our RPI, SOS, etc. Now we need Iowa State to beat them to ensure they don't make it into the NCAA tournament.

They would have knocked off a one seed and another Top 25 team. Vanderbilt has done less and is considered a lock.

looks like TCU win-with an assist from Michigan win- did bump us from 18 to 16 in LIVE RPI.

Like that would ever happen... not like I have any experience or anything, but that sounds heartbreaking.

USA Today's bracketologist said after today's game on Twitter that TCU needs to win the whole Big 12 tourney to get in. Beating Kansas isn't enough.

Prediction: if tcu wins the big 12 tourney, they will get an NCAA bid.

If our seed gets better with each TCU win - then I am all for them running the table in the B12 tourney. That will tell us all where SMU compares with the entire B12 Basketball league...
