Creighton beat Xavier. UCLA rollin @Stanford

I know you may think I'm nuts but them beating Xavier brought their RPI back up to 121. It was at 149... To get a top 4 seed we need them to stay above 150. They take those sub 150 losses pretty serious when it comes to the top seeds. We also need Washington and K-state to get back into the 60s instead of the high 70s and 80s. Thank goodness for UCLA looking better! This could give us potentially 3 good wins in non con.

@tulsa 17-5 leads American with 10-0 record. Big game Saturday against SMU
UCLA 14-9 & 6-4 in PAC12 which will put them at 3rd
Butler 17-6 in 2nd at 7-4 in big east

Not rolling anymore. 3.3 seconds from one of the worst choke jobs I've ever seen.

edit: And Stanford's desperation 3 to win at the buzzer draws iron but misses. Alford sucks.

Alford has ALWAYS sucked. I don't see how he keeps getting good jobs. Look what he did to the Iowa program.

Won the Mountain West when it was the 3rd toughest conference in the nation.

Nationally, people look at OU's schedule as a beast - because it is. Locally, we aren't as impressed. Always works that way. Sooners are in a great position, if we can finish strong, to get rewarded on Selection Sunday with a high bid.

It's more about what OU does from here on out than what a team does we played two months ago. We are already considered a team that has played one of the toughest schedules.

I do agree...to am extent....but UCLA improving to NOW a top 50 RPI team is HUUUGE it's like gaining a win against a top 50 team for free. We now have 8 wins against top 50 RPI teams. To me that can only help.

You can make a case for Alford's coaching this season being the worst in NCAA history.

Look at what he's allowing his son, who is hot garbage, to do to this team.


He plays an awful lot like a former UCLA Bruin, Russell Westbrook. Except that Russell Westbrook is one of the most talented players in the history of basketball, while Bryce Alford is a very marginal D1 player.

It's absurd that he's doing this, and I can't believe it's not more of a national story. Alford is literally letting his own son sabotage one a historically great basketball program like he's some hack pee wee coach who lets his kid do whatever he wants.

Huh? Maybe one year when Alford was there was there any argument whatsoever that the MWC was the 3rd toughest conference, and it's a bad argument.
