    If Damien puts up another performance similar to last Tuesday's this weekend may be the last time we see Jonathan Gray in the weekend rotation although with games coming up with Dallas Baptist and a pair with TCU it might be better to leave him in that mid-week slot for those higher RPI games.

    Hopefully this is a sign that the team is finally coming around. If a team is gonna get hot then this is the time to do it with roughly a month left in the season.

    Agree. Also need to take advantage of the lesser schedule coming up. If we are good, then we need to string wins together.

    Looking at our schedule: toughest conference series left is Baylor but we do have 4 games with the pokes. Out of conference, it looks like DBU and TCU.

    We need to go at least 6-4 in those 10 games without 3 of those losses coming to Baylor.

    I think we need to do better than that honestly. OU's RPI is not great and with 19 games left, I think we need to go at least 14-5 or 15-4 while avoiding a sweep to Baylor.

    We need to quit worrying about it and just focus on one game at a time. We are capable of winning out. Stranger things have happened. Remember last year's start? How about finishing like we started then? Yeah, that's the ticket...

    Going 8-1 against KU, Alabama State, and Samford coupled with going 6-4 in those other 10 games would be 14-5. That would make the season's record 37-19 going into the Big 12 tournament as well as a record of 19-5 to close out the season. That should put us on the good side of the bubble and once you're in you've got a chance ala Fresno State.
