Texas is coming on....

been improving as the season goes on. Shaka Smart has the Horns on a steady incline after a very average start, the lead Oklahoma by 9 at the half in Norman.
OU may rally in the 2nd half and pull it out, but Texas is not a team you would want in your brackett come March.

Shaka is the man. Love watching his teams play.

I agree Texas is improving but OU has also hit a wall. Too many players playing too many minutes and too dependent on the 3.

OU may have peaked...we see it every year with teams, and this is one strange year.

Same here. Lots of energy from both coach and players.

The true test will be how Shaka Smart recruits.

It appears there is now a reliable scouting report out against OU and teams are using it.

 

[CloverforkCat]

Looking at their schedule they have wins over UNC, @ WVU, Iowa State, @ Baylor, Washington, and will get Kansas at home near the end of the season.

not sure how you scout for buddy. He's lethal.

I gotta say, two teams that are very dangerous that nobody is talking about are Texas and Iowa. Veteran teams that are playing very well. I hope the cats can manage to avoid them.

Had them pegged as my Final Four sleeper back in late-December. Knew people would jump on the bandwagon eventually. They've got great guard play, two great freshman in Davis and Roach, Ibeh is basically the college version of DeAndre Jordan in the post... and the Shaka factor. Definitely a team I'd like to avoid come March.

So true. Cats are starting their ascent to the peak right about now Cal style.
