Roach will be available for Texas in the Big 12 tournament. He has been suspended the last 5 games. Texas’s best player.

Yes but they get KU in what will basically be a home game for KU since it's in Kansas City. Can't love UT's chances with Roach possibly being rusty, having no momentum and playing basically a road game. 

I think they will play themselves out and Shaka's seat will get pretty hot since this is a must win.

This is interesting stuff ... I would've never realized there were THAT many times teams played each other three times in a season, let alone one having a 2-0 record heading into the third game. 

Fun fact:

IU has only beaten 2 teams 3 times in a season since Big Ten Tournament has started. One was Ohio St. the inaugural yr. of it in 97-98 and second was PSU in 2011-2012 in Zeller's first year. 

Expanding to NCAA tourney we have only played a Big Ten team twice I believe. One was 1976 against Michigan when we went undefeated so we got them 3 times. The other was PU in 1980 and we lost.

We played OSU and PU on way to NIT title in 1979 but lost to those teams in regular season.

In other words we have only beaten a team 3 times in a season 3 times since at least tourney era in 1940 (I don't know in old days before tourney and you just played anyone if we played and beat someone 3 times and I don't have time to look).

If Sparty wins the tourney and the other teams fighting for the 1 lose then they got a shot. LSU would have a shot if they won out.
