They had 1 quality win at home vs K State by 4 pts. 2 if you count Baylor, but we don't know after what we saw CF do to them. Just not sold on OK State , Yet EVERYONE is on them!

I was just asking myself the same thing? I know that Lang is on Mizz and he is a great fade, but outside of that I'm not sure what I'm missing. :scared :shrug:

Lang is reason enough alone. After watching Mizzu vs A+M and auburn I was not impressed. Ok state looks to be the more balanced team to me. My biggest concern is who is more motivated. Hopefully Ok St since I was on the wrong team last night.

So this Is just because some dude went the other way? That has no bearing on if one team is better than the other. I'm Just looking for facts.

I see what you are saying.......but when you really look at it.......who has Mizzou beat ? I can't find anything that really stands out as a "signature" win.

Both teams have offense. Both teams are going to score. Both teams have at best mediocre defenses. Both teams are going to allow lots of points. I think the play with high scoring teams with bad/mediocre defenses is take the points and the overs.....

Just my .02 cents......not like I'm killing the bowl season this year.....

Agree, it's just weird that it is a UNANIMOUS choice here. This is far from an easy pick. Hasn't Missouri caused a turnover in like 40 straight games? It's gotta factor in right?

Thanks. This is why I started the thread. No one has answered on why OK State. Not trying to be an ass, just trying to be informed. That's why there is this forum, to make us all better cappers.

Look at OKstate Trends so far vs SEC it leans towards OKstate...I feel like OKstate has the D to lock down that Mizzu O

I think Ok St will be the more focused team based on what i've read and seen from media day videos. Ok. st. is balanced on offense, they have a good run defense but where they may be vulnerable is against the pass. I am not enamored with Franklin as a passer. Mizzou does have some good, big, receivers but I am banking on some Franklin miscues to be the difference.

Also like Gundy more than Pinkel, Pinkel can recruit and has done a good job this year but he doesn't make adjustments worth a crap.

Pokes have the better D. SEC overrated. Line movement.
With that said should be a close game.

Speaking of trends .... the SEC is 9-1 in the last 10 Cotton Bowls !! The only 1 Big 12 Win, Mizzou in '08 vs. Arkansas !!! Oklahoma State is 0-2 over that same span !!! Mizzou wins it by 7-10 pts !!!! :0074
