We certainly have them beat on talent now. They're not exactly a one-man team, but without Griffin they sure aren't Big 12 champs.<BR/><BR/>This raises the bar for us. Losing wouldn't be humiliating, but we at least need to take them to the wire.DGLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17254846037455114337noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23024323.post-36400707630503315512009-02-23T14:46:00.000-06:002009-02-23T14:46:00.000-06:00My source is a b**ch, I guess.He's out.

Rather beat them with him in there, and the loss is obviously more respectable if he plays. And, as Deron rightly said, the odds don't seem great even without him . . .<BR/><BR/>I'll stick with my optimistic line, even after seeing the incredible finish against Texas, but that's mostly because I'd like the bragging rights during our victory texting party tonight.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12280053661380045494noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23024323.post-63718260441260493732009-02-22T21:34:00.000-06:002009-02-22T21:34:00.000-06:00I still think Griffin plays and shakes off the con...I still think Griffin plays and shakes off the concussion.<BR/><BR/>Big XII in the balance with 4 games to go.

If we lose, we're sweating it out in a tie for 2nd with Mizzou. Good news about that, though, is that the Tigers have a date with destiny at the Fieldhouse Saturday.<BR/><BR/>Anyway, I've had trouble all year envisioning KU beating this Sooner team in Norman. If Griffin is out (and it's looking more and more like that's the case), we've got a better shot. But from what the commentators are saying, OU looked pretty formidable even without him in the process of <I>almost</I> winning in Austin.<BR/><BR/>So... not to rain on the parade but I'm going to say we fall short by a few points in this one. Hey, it's fun to be the underdog for once.DGLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17254846037455114337noreply@blogger.com
