Puts us in 4th place with a bye in the first round and likely a rematch against tech in the quarters of the Big 12 tournament. Ranked 30 this week, this probably puts us in the 20s and hopefully a 2 seed in the NCAAs.
4th place and a ranking in the high 20s is not something to hang banners about and I'm sure AggieXI and others will chime in with the usual "fire Kleinecke" talk but I think that in this improved Big 12 with 8 ranked teams, its a pretty good result. Especially since we were in a position to finish 7th and maybe not make the tournament at all before these last two clutch wins against Nebraska and tech.
Anyway good job to the team and here's to a strong finish and some good recruiting to build on this year.
