Odds of facing one in the tournament are pretty good. If we send teams, there will 2 big 12 teams in 3 out of 4 regions. Meeting one in the final? Pretty astronomical odds....we gotta get there, and so would OU, WVU or one of the others.
The odds, however, of meeting another conference foe in the Big 12 tourney are roughly 100%.

Certainly not! No one wants to remember the game that was the worst since KU lost to the Johnson County YWCA team back in Doc Naismith's days!.
Which is another way of saying it never happened, except in that alternate universe of spreadsheet formula copying errors.
I've kept this spreadsheet for years now, and every year I have to add the new year table to the mix and update the formulas in the Summary table to include it. This time around I missed that I had not properly adjusted the summary formulas for TCU and WVU when I copied my original edit to the rest of the summary table.
I blame those stinkin' rats that deserted the conference for this -- I wouldn't have the problem to deal with each year if they hadn't jumped ship! 
Thanks for the eagle eyes and question, Brother Konza! I always appreciate being able to get the right info published, and I really appreciate a solid proofreader.

I have one question, though: I certainly remember the 2013 KU road loss at TCU, but you also show Self as being 8-1 vs. TCU at Allen. My mind recalls every one of the other Allen losses to the teams you cited, but I'm drawing a complete blank as to when, how, and why we ever lost to TCU at home.
Can you provide a recap on that one, just to jog the memory?
Thanks!
