If we play Tuesday in Dayton, I might be there. If we get sent to Indy this weekend, same.Only location/day I can make in person is probably Friday the 29th in Dallas. Doubtful OU is in the South (or makes the Sweet 16). Houston should be. Might try to make it down to watch them. Tell Kellen "maybe next year".
Next time the first two rounds are in Oklahoma aren't until 2026 (OKC).
I’ll take it. 2 winsBest guess for OU:
10 seed.
The question is: Will OU play a 7 seed (Clemson, Gonzaga, Washington State, Saint Mary's, etc) or will they face another 10 seed (St. John's, Texas A&M, Oregon, etc) in a play-in game?
What I'm hoping for:
1.
or
2.
If we are in the play in the game then imo we arent really in the tournament unless we win the play in game.Best guess for OU:
10 seed.

Seems to be a bunch of OU fans spouting this right now. And ? We were safely in the tourney before however many bid stealers came through this week. A large enough group of OU fans just want this team to get $hit on as opposed to getting behind it and I don’t get it.If we are in the play in the game then imo we arent really in the tournament unless we win the play in game.
Completely disagree.If we are in the play in the game then imo we arent really in the tournament unless we win the play in game.
Last year there were ZERO bid stealers. This year, an unprecedented number. It was a bad year to be anywhere NEAR the bubble. We weren't even on the bubble going into conference tourney week and it all changed slowly as the week went on.Conference tournaments always throw this for a loop. I hope we are in but won’t be screaming about injustice if we don’t make it.
And yet the season could go from a positive trajectory into the tournament to a major disappointment considering our start. But that’s the nature of the tournament.Last year there were ZERO bid stealers. This year, an unprecedented number. It was a bad year to be anywhere NEAR the bubble. We weren't even on the bubble going into conference tourney week and it all changed slowly as the week went on.
lol again, that’s exactly what the bubble is. Just because YOU thought we were safely in doesn’t make it so. There is a reason not a single site had moved us to lock status. Every one of them noted that we were still in a situation where we could miss out if things shook out a certain way over the course of the conference tournaments.Last year there were ZERO bid stealers.

It took an historic shake up.lol again, that’s exactly what the bubble is. Just because YOU thought we were safely in doesn’t make it so.

Care to back that up with facts? That three bid thieves is historic?It took an historic shake up.
