2007 Big 12 Basketball Predictions
A lot of quality
players are gone, but our 2007
Big 12 basketball predictions
won't show the cupboard completely
bare for the conference.
Kansas is probably going to be the
easy winner in the league, but the
Longhorns have talent and the Aggies
seem to have gotten over the edge.
Kansas State will be back and
Missouri shouldn't be bad, but the
conference drops of quickly after
that with the rest of the league
struggling to compete with the upper
half.

The Kansas Jayhawks will be the
top of the class here in the Big 12, and we fully expect them to be in
contention for a national title, but can Bill Self get this school over the
post-season slump?
Texas won't have Kevin Durant, but
this team still has DJ Augustin and loads of talent which should allow them
to compete with the Jayhawks and the rest of the country.
Acie Law and Billy Gillespie have moved on to greener pastures, but Joseph
Jones and Josh Carter still give the
Texas A&M Aggies a powerful
inside-outside punch.
Kansas State might be a
little on the young side, but freshman Michael Beasley will step in and
contribute immediately. If Bill Walker and David Hoskins have big
years as well then this team could make a tourament run.
The Missouri Tigers have
struggled to get back to the national spotlight, and sticking in the middle
of the pack in 2007-08 will be a big success.
You'll see the Baylor Bears
surprise some people and possibly make their first post-season tournament in
recent memory behind Curtis Jerrells and company.
The mighty have fallen and the
Oklahoma Sooners will have to rely way too much on Blake Griffin if they
think they can compete with the top of the Big 12.
Oklahoma State finished
last season just horribly, and Sean Sutton is going to need improve his
record without any big name stars.
Nebraska is another team that
doesn't have loads of big name talent, but they could surprise a few people
during the season with their style of play.
Bobby Knight isn't going to be a very happy coach this year as the
Texas Tech Red Raiders end
up towards the bottom of the Big 12.
It's going to take a few recruiting classes for Jeff Bzdelik to get the
Colorado Buffaloes turned
around. This team lacks the talent to finish above .500 in league
play.
Iowa State isn't going to have
Mike Taylor due to him being kicked off the team, which leaves them with a
bunch of players playing that wouldn't see the floor on a lot of other teams
in college basketball.
