The Rest of College Football

Ole Miss is up big on Oklahoma St.
B12 = overrated again.

Last yr the 12 was good... This year, not so much. It's all about match ups and motivation.

Ah wait, I might have been thinking about basketball.

? Last year they went 2-5 in bowl games.

Okie State is awful. Seriously awful. Ole Miss was my 2nd highest pick ATS of my entire pool. Oregon was #1, and that's looking even better.

It's unfortunate a lot of these recent games have been blowouts.
After Wisconsin USC, a game hardly anyone saw the end of, it's been mostly noncompetitive...

DSL... Was I thinking 3 yrs ago??

Agreed. The Pokes are horrible. How did they win 10 games?

Gundy is playing to keep the score down.

I'd say big 12 defenses... I'd also suggest the 12 gets away with more offensive penalties than other conferences during the season and fewer D. When they hit other conference refs I think it hurts them. I commented on it many times this year... Lack of offensive PI or holding as well as tick tack D penalties. I think it creates the excitement they want, but makes it tougher when guys are not allowed to run free in secondaries. Jmo

Probably only Baylor played a worse non-conference schedule than them.

I remember they did beat TCU pretty good but don't remember if TCU had key players missing for that game. They lost convincingly to Oklahoma and Baylor. Texas, Kansas State, and West Virginia all nearly beat them.

Good point. But Ole Miss is missing a ton of folks. I was hoping Okie State would beat the Rebel badtards.

I'm not sold on Gundy as a big game coach. He"s handled the program well but it seems like when its a big game it isn't pretty.

Oklahoma St met their reasonable peak already.
They went 12-1 in 2011, won a BCS game, and finished 3rd in the final ranking.
Any Oklahama State fan shouldn't expect more. Maybe they are the Iowa of the B12... One chance every 4 years of being a great team is what they should do.
