Really young teams across the board, and the Big XII tends to play a style of basketball that relies on a lot of athleticism, size, and physical play, but very little finesse. When Big XII teams start running into teams with size, athleticism, AND finesse, we lose.

Well, we played like we were young... inconsistent. UT is the exception, but then, they're still in the tournament, too.

We played like we were young but we were not, that is one reason this year was so frustrating and annoying...

The Aggies looked good down the stretch, losing only to UT in the Big XII tourney.

UT did not look that good Friday. They should beat NC State in Dallas, though, since calls seem to go their way there lately.

Most of the teams lost a lot of talent. I think the lower half of the Big 12 is actually better but those teams are still bad.

Big XII has been iron tough in the past but this is one of the weakest years in my memory...

I think the youth of many of the teams is the answer...thanks...
