Texas beats TX am on Thanksgiving and Texas plays Missouri in the BIG 12 championship

I don't think it's that simple. Texas is ahead of Oklahoma by a very thin margin. Oklahoma's next game is against Okie State while Texas has A&M. Strength of schedule wise - OU will pick up some points.

[TRAXX]

Nice! but it aint over yet. Assuming OU beats Okie lite, that will be one more "quality" win for them...could be enough to vault them over UT. Its apparent the human polls forget that Texas beat OU head to head.

[Leupold]

Texas can easily beat Aalabama. Does the big 12 game factor in to the BCS standings (if by chance texas lost in it)?

[Leupold]

I dont think OU will jump above Texas now. Even if they blew Oklahoma state out.

[Slowhand]

I stand corrected on the Florida situation.

[bcoop]

I dont think OU will jump above Texas now. Even if they blew Oklahoma state out.


It's all going to depend on how close TX and OU are right now. Okie State being ranked just makes OU's SoS tougher, and could be enough to move them over UT.

[Adam]

I'd love to see a Florida/texas BCS NC game....

[Leupold]

I suppose anything could happen in this fckd up BCS crap.

That would give OU 4 quality wins to Texas 3 quality wins. So... i guess that is enough in "BCS" eyes

Just need Alabama to lose that would definitely clear things up.

Texas and OU in the national championship game? That would be crazy :eek:

[stinginstang]

It's all going to depend on how close TX and OU are right now. Okie State being ranked just makes OU's SoS tougher, and could be enough to move them over UT.


I think OU will vault over Ut with a win over Okie State. One little wrinkle - If tech loses to Baylor - UT gets into the Big 12 Championship game with a win over A&M.

1. Alabama, 0.987;
2. Texas, 0.920;
3. Oklahoma, 0.912;
4. Florida, 0.875;
5. USC, 0.797;

[Slowhand]

If Tech loses to Baylor

I might have an aneurysm if that happens.

[J&T's 82]

If Oklahoma beats Ok St. by at least a couple of touchdowns then they will more than likely jump over Texas. Texas can beat A&M by a 100 and it will not improve their situation.

[WhoaTX5.0]

It's all going to depend on how close TX and OU are right now. Okie State being ranked just makes OU's SoS tougher, and could be enough to move them over UT.

Isnt UT's SOS rank #5 and OU #25 or 26?

I will find the link and post it.

Don't think that Baylor is going to beat TT .....Baylor might get a little of what Tech got in Norman.

Right now..... That doesn't mean diddly next week.

here's the first link.....

UT is #5 and OU #26.....

When OU plays OK State, it will help there SOS but NOT that much to pass UT

They don't have to pass TX in the SoS, I don't think. They only have to pass them in the BCS. Like I said, it will all depend on how close Oklahoma is to UT right now. A few positions gained in SoS, could put them over UT.

[exlude]

It's also going to depend on how well OU does against OSU. A poor/close performance could cause OU to lose some votes in the human polls.

[WhoaTX5.0]

Wasnt saying they had to pass them in SOS rankings. But the computers are using that in there formula to figure there ranking.

I do believe this.....if Texas wins impressively, I dont think OU will pass them in the BCS ranking.
I really do think the head to head victory is keeping Texas ahead of OU, and will keep them ahead of OU, If Texas wins impressively over TX am.

[joshscoupe]

So who do all of you see playing for the BCS NC?

[joshscoupe]

That would give OU 4 quality wins to Texas 3 quality wins. So... i guess that is enough in "BCS" eyes

The only way that clears things up if bama loses to auburn . cause if they lose in the SEC title game to UF then the Gators should be playing for a NC.

[WhoaTX5.0]

So who do all of you see playing for the BCS NC?

If Texas wins over TX am and wins the BIG 12 CG,
Then it's
Texas vs Alabama or Florida

Would like to see
Texas vs Florida

[joshscoupe]

If Texas wins over TX am and wins the BIG 12 CG,

Yea so would I would much rather the Gators play UT than to play OU. Can two teams from the same conference play in the BCS title game?

[Vertnut]

I'm stunned. I figured OU would be #2, with UT at 4, after Florida. But...I'll damn sure take it! :D

[OkieJoe]

Sorry whoatex, but with the slim lead UT has over OU in the BCS I'm pretty sure they will jump UT with a QUALITY win over OSU. That will give OU 4 quality wins to 3 for UT. They are already #2 in the coaches poll so with more computer points from a quality win they should move up. Texas will gain nothing from a win vs the Aggies. If your argument is that UT beat OU head-head then shouldn't Tech still be ranked ahead of UT?

[Badass2000gt]

I'm stunned. I figured OU would be #2, with UT at 4, after Florida. But...I'll damn sure take it! :D
So am I. Figure OU would be higher since UT jumped bama back when UT beat OU. But whatever I will take it too. :D

[ToRqUeTwIsTeR]

If your argument is that UT beat OU head-head then shouldn't Tech still be ranked ahead of UT?
A late loss is the worst kind of loss. A blow out late loss is even more detrimental. Seeing that Texas Tech fell to #7 they aren't even a factor right now so I don't know why you would even bring that up. If both Texas and Oklahoma remain with 1 loss then UT holds the head-to-head over OU and should go to the Big 12 Championship. However, being a realist, I am almost positive that anything can happen. I believe the only reason OU even got close to UT in the BCS rankings is because UT was on idle with a bye week. I was surprised to see UT moving up to #2 on idle as that almost never happens. You and most people on here are over thinking it. Just let the whole situation play out and then start your crying or nut sucking.

[DatDude]

Just let the whole situation play out and then start your crying or nut sucking.
Exactly... its isnt over yet. The BCS "experts" (I use this term loosely because I dont think anyone really knows how all this shit works in detail) seem to agree right now that if OU wins, it will give them enough computer rankings boost to overtake the small margin that Texas has right now with most likely a boost in human polls also provided its a convincing win. But if OU loses, well Texas fans everywhere better start praying that Baylor goes into Lubbock and beats Tech next week or Tech gets into the Big XII title game. Gonna be an interesting weekend for sure.

I believe Tech is done.....A win over Baylor isn't going to push them past Florida or OU much less Texas in BCS rankings. I can see OU passing up Texas though. BCS standings determine who represents the Big 12 and if it is a tie then it goes to the head-to-head match-up which favors Texas. As previously stated....let it all play out. I still can't get over Ut losing to Tech in the first place....or else none of this shit would even be a conversation. DAMN GIDEON!!

Tech is only out of the picture if Oklahoma wins at Oklahoma State. If Oklahoma loses and Tech and Texas both win their games, then the tie breaker goes to Tech for the Big XII south representative regardless of BCS rankings.... doesnt mean they have that much of a chance at going to the BCS game but I guess anything is possible anymore. Hell, Texas could lose its thrid straight game to the Aggies. That would be some crazy shit right there.

No shit. I need to take a shot of jagger.

Damn....my head hurts.
No shit. Its got me going mad diving into the details of how all the computer rankings work this evening. I noticed that the Colley Matrix computer poll had Texas at number one before and AFTER its loss to Tech. Just strange how something like that happens but oh well.

Heres another mind bender.... what if all three teams lost.... Oklahoma State could take the show.... maybe.... I dont know. Im going to bed.

Yeah after that last statement you need to go to bed. Okie state going to the big 12 championship yeah right. :rolleyes:

[Denny]

Too bad it's a reflection of the year's performance because I think Florida is the best team in the country... right now.

[ToRqUeTwIsTeR]

[DatDude]

Its crazy talk but it would be a four way tie with Okie state still ranked up there and a quality win over #3 Oklahoma and two bad beats by Texas and Tech. The rankings would be strange but its possible it could happen in that nearly impossible scenario. Alright... fine... Im outtie. Take a few Kadien/hydrocodone/soma/xanax (the usual) and hit the hay.

The only way that clears things up if bama loses to auburn . cause if they lose in the SEC title game to UF then the Gators should be playing for a NC.
if bama loses to auburn, UF won't get enough points from beating them to jump ou or ut in the bcs.

[regaltip]

If OU makes the BCS NC I don't see them beating FL... Choke again!

[BlueThunder99TA]

the strength of scehdule between the two will shrink a ton this weekend. If OU wins by a decent margin, expect fireworks come Sunday.

[joshscoupe]

if bama loses to auburn, UF won't get enough points from beating them to jump ou or ut in the bcs.

Nope i dont think they will and it sucks cause Auburn brings it every time they play Bama.

[poopnut2]

All I can say is that I don't agree with Tech going all the way down to #7 and that I hope that UT makes it to the NC. I'm not even gonna bother trying to understand the BCS factors. It's hopeless.

[bert89coupe]

Too bad it's a reflection of the year's performance because I think Florida is the best team in the country... right now.



have they proven that by beating up on the Citadel? Or maybe an over ranked LSU team or that Georgia team? Maybe they proved it by getting beat by that "ok" Ole Miss team :D


that florida/fsu game might be pretty good.

[Vertnut]

Florida hasn't proven shit... :cool: The Big 12 is the "ghetto" of NCAA this year. It's been a war zone all season, and now even more-so. Whoever survives the Big 12 will be the next National Champ.
