Big 12 Mens Basketball

The Big 12 Mens basketball standings are in some cases intriguing. Most young ballers look for the dazzling lights of North Carolina, Duke, Michigan and Indiana. There are so many conferences and teams that litter USA Today, ESPN and Fox Sports. When I played in high school the teams I wanted to play for was UNLV, DePaul, Duke, St. John`s and Temple just to name a few. These teams was the cream of the crop when it came to Men`s basketball. Let`s take a look at the Big 12 conference and standings. Mind you Oaklahoma was the number team in the country before losing 2 straight games. Kansas is the darling of the conference and they`ve been beaten twice this year. It`s been 26 games into the season and March is looming. Here are the standings.


Team Wins Loss PCT Streak
Kansas 22 4 .846 W6
West Virginia 20 6 .769 L1
Oklahoma 20 5 .800 L2
Baylor 19 7 .731 W1
Texas 17 9 .654 W1
Iowa State 18 8 .692 L1
Texas Tech 16 9 .640 W3
Kansas State 15 11 .577 W1
Oklahoma State 12 14 .462 L1
TCU 11 15 .423 L2


One might look at the standings and say, “What`s wrong with TCU and Oklahoma State?”

You answer is in really bad injuries and depth on the bench. Last year these teams made a lot of noise during the national tournament. The Big 12 will be well represented during March Madness.
