This should be a great week of Big 12 football. I will play a 4 team parlay with the top four, a three team parlay with the top three, and my top two. In order of my confidence in the picks:

Oklahoma -21. Franchione may not win another game at TAMU. See posts from all week.

Kansas State -14 Iowa State gave Texas all they wanted, but they don't have an answer this week. The KSU faithful have taken the kool-aid, and think they actually have a chance to win the Big XII north. (These are the same folks, of course, who thought Stoops was coming back to Manhattan when Bill Snyder retired.) KSU is not looking past ISU, and should roll.

Texas Tech -21 Texas Tech should be mad following last week, and Baylor's been scored upon more than your sister (or my sister, if I had one).

Colorado +4. Missouri doesn't play well at Folsom. Plus, they poop in their helmets every November. But seriously, Colorado can handle a spread offense; look how they handled Texas Tech last week.

Texas -3. I've gone back and forth on this one. Oklahoma State is very good, and could certainly win, but I think Texas has the superior team.

Kansas -20. Kansas will not overlook Nebraska. They had that horrendous streak that was finally broken 2 years ago. This is such a large number, but if I have to pick a side I like my Jayhawks.

I'm with you on all but Texas and Kansas vs Nebraska simply stay away, far away.

Okie State has the edge playing at home and the Horns have serious issues at Linebacker. Look for Okie State to cover the number at home.


I'm torn with NU vs KU. Nebraska is starting Ganz at QB and from what I've heard, the players are rallying around him. If Nebraska can get out of the first quarter and still be in it, they might win SU. If KU comes out and scores on their first possession, they will roll. 50/50 proposition at best.

If you listed them as your strongest play first, then you are all over it, my friend, BOL to you and everyone.
