Default 2 questions....

1. What if Oklahoma beats Tex Tech tonight, and Okla, Tex, and Tex Tech all end up with 1 conference loss, and 1 overall loss?

In this scenario, Okla beat Tech, but lost to Texas. Tech beat Texas but lost to Okla. Texas beat Okla but lost to Tech.

So how do they determine the tiebreaker? It seems bogus that SOMEONE will HAVE TO end up playing for the big 12 title, and national championship (imo b12 winner faces sec winner almost without question in the bcs title game), ahead of someone who they lost to. Without a doubt, then, you have a team sitting at home saying "we already beat those guys" during the national title game....

2. Why is Florida playing the ****adel this late in the season? Tune ups in week 1 or 2 are understandable, but in week 13? What does that accomplish??

I believe then the BCS standings decide who plays in the Big 12 title game..What a joke that is..I imagine if Oklahoma wins they would play, which would be total bull**** because if you're Texas you have to be saying wait wtf we beat these guys already and lost to TT at their place on pretty much the last play of the game..Only way everything works out is if TT wins IMO..If not then it is all ****ed up to have to rely on the BCS to pick the conference title game..

As for Florida I'm not sure..Could it be that it is a makeup of some sort for when the hurricanes were going through florida and the game could not be played and this is the makeup date?

That is really dumb if the bcs standings pick who plays in any conference title game.

I say all 3 of them would have a legit gripe....

It comes down to the final BCS standings, which is crazy because if it comes down to that scenerio the Soth winnerwill not know until Sunday evening if they are playing in that game or not.
There is one major hurdle if OU beats TT this weekend, which they will,they have to play oklahoma state next weekend on the road. This is osu's super bowl every year and will be a very difficult game. IMO. If osu beats OU then Tech would go to the championship game.
How would it be bull**** if OU went ahead ofTexas, they would all have arguments against each other.
I think OU wins by DD tonight and then has a nail biter next weekend against oklahoma state, which I think could go either way. Just remember the pollsters often forget losses earlier in the year and OU would have been the first of the 3 to lose. It will definitely be interesting. It will be one hell of an atmosphere at the game tonight. If I was a bettin man I would place a nice chunk of change on Oklahoma tonight.

I agree....if you ask me the oddsmakers are telling you who is going to win (Sooners) by making them a TD fave over the #2 team in the country. IMO Tech is walking right into a hornets nest tonight, and they get beaten pretty soundly, but i've been wrong before, lol

But you're right though, if they win tonight, OSU is never easy....and they're better this year than usual too, so that makes it even worse, lol

Not so sure i wanna watch the Sooners get beaten in the championship game by Florida anyway, lol
