It ain't over yet for the women

Some interesting developments tonight.

First, the Twister Sisters dispatched of Okie State tonight. That is good.

Texas won in Manhattan, pulling the Wildcats back even with ISU with 3 losses. That is good.

With Saturday's trip to Waco, ISU has a shot of the only team ahead of them in the loss collumn. A win there and they gain another tiebreaker. Considering ISU ends with 3 games they will be favored in, they would suddenly find themselves back inthe drivers seat.

The Cyclones already win tiebreakers against Nebraska and Texas. They may win a tiebreaker against KSU. Beat Baylor, they earn a tiebreak there. Since Tech has games left against Baylor and OU, both on the road, hopefully the losing tiebreaker there becomes a moot point.

All this is setting up as winner take all for ISU Saturday. Win, and with a tiny bit of help, they can clinch the title. Lose, and they will need tiebreakers just to get one of the top four seeds in the B12 tourney.

Here's hoping.
