I think what Tom was saying is that we were extremely close (a gnat's ass) to having the entire Final Four being from the Big XII.

I won't share his enthusiam that Mizzou could have made it out of their bracket, but i will say that it definatly shoulda been 3 of our teams there. I'd have liked to see a KU-OU Championship game.

Believe me, I would have liked it too!

Of course, only if it had a different outcome than the last OU/KU national championship game.

What can I say, though? I guess I'm joining in with the Rock, Chalk, Jayhawk crew on Monday!

And as for football... I was at the spring scrimmage yesterday and as much as I hate to brag, our defense looks better than last year, and our offense looks like a new team compared to next year! We've gone 63-14, 14-3 and 35-24 in the last 3 OU/tx games, but I have a feeling that this year's going to be even more of a blowout!!

Thank you. I enjoy tom's posts, but often have a hard time understanding the posts!

Still have to give props to another C-USA tema for making the final four!

Who is that new RB!?! That guy was phenomenal! Hickson or something?

So far for Big XII teams it's just been a question of when they had to play Syracuse.

Yes, to all you NONBELIEVERS who did NOT think it could happen:

SYRACUSE

WON

Special thanks goes out to the two fabolous freshman: Mr. Melo and G-Mac

The way they played against the team I had going all the way (Oklahoma) -- that made me a believer. Amazing! Congratus Orangemen!

Peaches-n-Cream · #**236** 04-08-2003, 09:16 AM

Congratulations Syracuse Orangemen!

I was rooting for them because that is where AGD was founded and UofK was no longer in it!
Way to go!

Tee hee, ME TOO! (Figured if Arizona couldn't go all the way, at least I could root for the school that gave us Alpha Gam!)

Congrats to Syracuse! What a great game!

I really thought Kansas was going to win, but it was an awesome game and I'm glad Syracuse ended up winning (of course, Alpha Phi was also founded there). They really seemed like they wanted it more than the Kansas players, and Carmelo is such a cutie!!

Why do people in our own state hate us? I understand other states hating us, fine whatever......and I understand UofL hating us. But why should smaller schools in KY hate us?

Congrats to everyone that had a good bball year!
