The men sit at 12-5 as of the writing of this fine post. Seems like 20 wins is the magic number most year for a spot in the big dance, although we've seen teams get at-large bids with as few as 17 wins.

With 13 regular season conference games remaining, I figure we need 7 to 8 more wins to be safely off the bubble (I wouldn't have even thought we'd be anywhere near the bubble before the season tipped off). Unfortunately, only 5 of the remaining games are at the LNC, with 2 of those being against Baylor and Mizzou. It's not going to be easy getting to 20, but it would be a great thing!

NCAAs or not, it certainly looks like we'll be treated to some Sooner men's post-season hoop action.

We are, unquestionably, an NIT team. I doubt seriously that we are an NCAA team. But, stranger things have happened to these crazy Sooners. After being at Big Monday back in 1995, anything's possible.

...but don't take MY word for it:

Yeah. That's right. If you look through the rest of the game, I'm all over that video footage, too. I miss those days. Sigh.

I have that on VHS somewhere. Can someone loan me a VCR? ..and instructions on how to use one?

I think my VHS is in the garage just behind my record player...I'll see if I can find it.

I think we have a great opportunity to snatch a road win this weekend against a struggling A&M team who has beaten only Tech. Heck, Iowa State beat them by 24 on their own home floor. If we can win out the rest of our home games, with the exception of one of the Baylor/Mizzou games (I think we need to get a big win to stick out to the committee) and one or two more road wins to go with A&M (Tech being another good chance), I think we have a shot.

You have to have some road wins in order to get into the NCAA's. We aren't gonna have it.

I'm going to be happy with any post season play. Personally I don't think we are an NCAA Tourny team or even a bubble team. If we win a game or two in the NIT, it will be a good season compared to the last couple. Next year we should be in the hunt for a NCAA bid.

Fill out your own if you disagree, or if you wanna do one for a different conference or other teams or something, heh

This conference is getting 5 bids, MAX.

KU, BU, MU, ISU and probably KSU.

I do not see any other team even bubble material barring a magical run in the Big12 Tourney.

Sooners, Texass, and possible A&M are looking at NIT
