Baylor won against Centenary today, 90-55. One of the commentators for the game placed Baylor as 2nd in the Big XII (behind Oklahoma... and AHEAD OF Texas!) It's looking like a good year ahead!

Sic 'em!

I'm surprised but happy that ASU is ranked.

[Mr.Supervious]

[danbos]

Go Blue!

Well, they're not looking good in football, but they beat UCLA last night. Too bad they lost to Duke tonight.

WOW! Texas Tech put up 167 points the other day! Granted it was against East Central, but it's still a school record. Story here (http://rivals.yahoo.com/ncaa/basketball/blog/the_dagger/post/Texas-Tech-scores-167-points-and-I-don-t-mean-t?urn=ncaab,123908).

I'm looking forward to December 6. Michigan gets a rematch with Duke...at Crisler Arena.

Dayton is 27th. Not to bad for having just set an NCAA record for missed threes.
Hopefully they don't lose their star players this season.

GO Flyers!!!

GO BLUE!

Down go the Dukies! Down go the Dukies! :D
