Talking Texas Basketball Surviving Oklahoma on SBNation's New YouTube Channel

Great win for Horns. Excited to see how this progresses Wescott!

Jason Segal’s skinnier younger brother? Seriously though it is cool to actually put faces with all the stuff written by you guys.

but man you appear much skinnier than in your avatar here. Pretty cool to see some of the peeps around here in a more real and personal manner.

On to basketball, I have barely watched this season. This is partly due to living in Omaha and having a snowball’s chance in hell of ever having it available to purchase. and partly because watching 6-7 freshman, one skilled junior, and a senior who consistently play one level better than a pickup game at a local gym is tortuous at best. I have pretty much hated this basketball season.

Than I watched Iowa vs Nebraska. My god that game was an abortion of skill and coaching on a collegiate level. the half time line was iowa 23 and nebraski 19 if i recall correctly. I believe iowa was in the low 20s for shooting percentage and the corn was 18sh.

This isnt a knock on iowa/nebraska, insomuch as it is a reminder that even if this years UT team is young and often bone headed, they are still head and shoulder’s better than a lot of other d-1 schools. That said bring on march’s madness and keep the football tidbits coming as it is the only thing keeping some of us alive.

Is this going to be something all SB Nation blogs are going to do?

1. If NCAA BB teams were vetted for the postseason the way football is, Texas has no shot at getting in, just based on the lack of “style” points or whatever. Like you point out, I’ll take any and all wins like OU because I’m pretty confident not many people on the selection committee are watching too closely.

2. Speaking of the committee, take a look at one of the members this year, none other than our Big 12 commish (ex commish?) Dan Beebe.

3. A pretty solid read for anyone as interested (and ignorant) as I was about the selection process: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NCAA_basketball_tournament_selection_process

It seems pretty opaque and arbitrary, but I guess when you’re letting in 68 teams you can afford to be more of both than when you’re letting in, say, two.

U need some more decor on your walls. But good job

I like this new SBNation channel

Although with your webcam and the doors behind I feel like I am looking through one of those fisheye lenses they use as a peephole in a hotel room door… (Just playing around.)

I always thought you were like an old dude or something. You know, in your 40s or such. Hmm, that probably came out wrong. What I’m trying to say is, your writing skills far exceed your youth. (This is a compliment, I swear.)

I hope they don’t pressure poor PB to do too much of this, though. PB is a hell of a writer, but the poor guy can barely get through a radio interview/podcast. I can’t imagine how he’d survive a video podcast/streaming/whatever it is they’re going to ask him to do. I appreciate his work so much to see him struggle through those interviews pains me.

Should be your catchphrase for every video. :-)

Great job! And I can sympathize with practicing in order to sound more conversational. Currently in preparation for my moot court competition. It becomes more natural the more you do it. Of course, I have to be perfect by March 20… sigh.

Just keep ’em coming! Thanks for all the time and effort you put into this site.
