For James Anderson from OK
Submitted by MIKE (not verified) on Wed, 2008-11-26 02:09.
For James Anderson from OK State to not be on your 1st, or even your 2nd, Team is ridiculous.
I believe you also have the wrong Missouri player in there. DeMarre Carroll should be on the 2nd Team before Lyons.
And, for Cole Aldrich not to be on your 2nd Team is crazy, I would have him on my 2nd Team and he is someone I would strongly consider to put into my first team.

Disagree about the Anderson comment. Who would you knock off instead? I could see Anderson knocking off Eaton, but that would probably bother you too since he's on OSU. Anderson will choke in BIg 12 play again.
Yes, I would knock off Eaton

Yes, I would knock off Eaton and put Anderson in before him. I see Anderson having a big 2nd year instead of the typical sophomore slump most sophomores go through.
Your predictions are close...

Well, I have to disagree with Oklahoma State finishing fourth in the conference. I believe five teams from the Big 12 will make an NCAA Tournament berth. Texas, Baylor, Oklahoma, Kansas, and Texas A&M.
I really don't see what all the hype is about Oklahoma State!! Come on!! They have had a relatively soft non-conference schedule. I see them finishing 6th in the Big 12.
And I believe you have Kansas State and Iowa State ranked too low in the conference.
I believe Kansas State should fall somewhere in the middle of the pack in the Big 12, and Iowa State to finish somewhere around 9th or 10th.
Baylor is not a surprise team, but watch out for this team!! They are for REAL! I wouldn't be surprised if they win the BIg 12. Bold move in picking them to finish 2nd. But, I believe to be accurate..
