If I hadn't already had a GOY (which got backdoored on the last play of the game) this would be it:

Oklahoma State Aggies (7)

Tough call on this game. Sun, I'm just not sold on Okie State. It reminds me a lot of Tech in the past in that they really beat up on bad teams and even average teams.

Really who have the beaten this year that's good? They lost to Nebraska and if(I know about ifs) the Aggs hadn't had Johnson as their QB then OSU probably would have lost to them. The same can be said for OU this year I know.

OU gives up a lot on the ground but they have the athletes to play this spread offense, not many teams do. I think both offenses are about equal and OUs defense is a small notch better than OSU. The home field keeps me off of OU as well as the Avg per rush and yards given up per rush by OU. Hunter could have a field day and we might see Gundy try and slow the game down for once.(IMO if he was smart this is what he would do)

We are gonna take out alot of years of frustration on them boys Sun Tzu. I was hoping you would be on them. Just hope they dont come out tight and just let it fly. Cant f**king wait. Biggest game in 22 years. This is gonna be good.

Sun - based on my research, these are the scenarios for the Big 12 Champ.

North - Nebraska has to beat Colorado at home. Going out on a limb and saying they are in.

South - Okie St. win over Okie and they are in.
A&M has to win and hopes Okie beats State.

If there is a 3-way tie, don't they go to the BCS standings to determine?

Long story short the winner in Stillwater will go.

In a sense I don't either, but that line is way short of what it should be per every method I look at games. Something stinks to high heaven there. Hey I took AM big last year in this game when folks didn't see any way it could be close!

Texas A&M had a tough battle with Nebraska and the refs really bailed them out. I see the Horns defensive line dominating similar to what the Huskers did if they come ready. I also think buying the number to 4 or 4.5 makes sense as this appears to be a close game on paper.

Can't see the Horns not giving 100% effort with a bowl game on the line. I don't think Brown wants to be the first coach since Mackovic that didn't get Texas to a bowl game.
