The record for wins in a season is 26, in case anyone is interested. I do not know if that would include postseason play because we got bounced in the first round that year.

That '90-01 team made a run to the finals of the Big 8 Tournament, which would have added 2 wins to their season total.  That team was 24-6 in the regular season.

I was a freshman in high school that year, and that team was so fun to watch and follow all year long.  They had to play a very late game on Friday night of the NCAA tournament, and didn't play well.  Xavier also shot very well that night (54% from the field, and 6 of 14 from 3's.  It's too bad NU couldn't get past that 1st game, because they had the talent to make a deep run.

Miami vs Syracuse
Providence vs Butler
Kansas State vs Iowa State

Boise State vs Air Force
 

and several more.

Also UCF won a game today.

Texas won - bad for us

Syracuse won - bad for us

Butler won - probably bad for us?

Virginia tech beat Georgia tech - bad for us

K State is tied at half

They beat Providence, who was closer to getting left out of the bracket than they are.

And there are plenty of head to heads left.

Probably, but Providence beat Villanova the other night, which helped their resume a lot. I think both of these teams end up making it.

 
The double round robin schedule seems to be really helping the Big 12 and BE this year.  Lots of opportunities for quality home wins which props up the rest of the conference making a cycle for more quality wins.

Welp, maybe we should start cheering for them to lose out, heh.

Seems like every team we wanted to lose today has won, and KSU is suddenly up 13.

Nope, Oklahoma is going to get in because they have Trae Young, and they are not going to leave one of the best players in the country out of the tournament.
