No kidding about having their work cut out for them.  What a weird 
ending to the
Big 12 season with both NU and TAMU getting swept.  Dropping to the third seed
in the tournament essentially means NU needs to go 3-0 to win the 
division as I
don't see OSU dropping more than one game.

TAMU has got to be wondering what happened the last two weeks in going 0-5 the
last five games after their 16 game conference winning streak.  They have a
tough division with Missouri and Texas as the 4 & 5 seeds.

The way things are going, the Big 12 may rough each other up enough 
that nobody
gets a national seed.  My expectation (and hope that it isn't worse) for NU is
to go 2-1 in the Big 12 tourney, have a home regional which hopefully 
they win,
but lose the super regional on the road 1-2.  If there was an upset in the
opposing regional and NU were to get a super at home, they would be tough to
beat.  But that's a long ways off.  We'll see if NU can bounce back like they
have before in a couple days.

GBR,
