#2 Baylor, #7 West Virginia, #5 Kansas, TCU at home, and OSU in Stillwater.

1-4 puts OU in a serious hole.

3-2 is probably best case scenario... Wins over WVU, TCU, and OSU. That puts OU on a track to make the NCAA Tournament.
 
We have to win the TCU and OSU games and hopefully keep the other three close. That would put us at 3-4 in conference. We probably need to beat WV as well since it is a home game and we stubbed our toe yesterday.
 
We can win all those games but I have very little hope against Baylor. Ku and wvu are not anything special this year.

Agree with the first sentence. I wonder whether playing ORU and HBU helped or hurt us. Seems like it might have hurt some of the starters (injected a little laziness) but helped some of the bench. We will have to play better to beat anyone in the conference but we are capable of beating anyone. We would have to find a lot of unforeseen toughness to beat Baylor though.

What was going on with Manek!?

Who the heck knows?

Maybe it’s the hair, or the headband or that Larry Bird lookalike mustache. If so, I hope the old Brady Manek look will return soon!

Sadly, it isn’t all that unusual. He has multiple games like this each season. He is a very good to great player most games, but I’ve never known another player of his caliber to be as prone to having a game every month or so where he gets off to a bad start and completely goes in the tank. I could live with an occasional game where he scores 8 points on 3-11 shooting, but when he gets in a funk, he can’t even do that. Plus, he lets it affect his entire game. Lon obviously knows that and that’s why he kept him on the bench for so much of the second half rather than letting him try to play his way out of it.
 
that's a tough row to hoe....crazy is 4/5 are at home.

Funny, wv #7 and ku #5 "aren't all the special" but obviously someone thinks they are...by their rankings.

Should beat tcu, osu...is a throw-up depending on which OU team shows.

Bu don't expect a win..but watch OU will go 1-4 and that is who they will beat..LOL

Tough stretch....no doubt. Need to find a way to go at least 2-3. Anything better than 2-3 and the season looks really promising.....and I will only b!tch twice per game thread.:D
