USC has it easy from here on out.

Great.

[1890MilesToNorman]

Meaning of the list?

The NCAA thinks the Big XII is the premiere conference in the nation. Something we all knew already.

Great.

Two years ago...they lost at Oregon State.

Last year...at home to Stanford.

It is easy, but they have proven they can lose to teams they shouldn't...just as we have.

Okay, I don't really understand this. Baylor being on the list makes me think there is no criteria for setting up the list. So naturally, the worst teams in the NCAA are going to have the toughest schedules, simply because they suck.

But what criteria did they use on this list? Kansas, Georgia, and Oklahoma in the top four, but with Baylor mixed in.

That list just indicates which teams have the toughest road ahead of them (# of ranked teams on their schedule, etc). That's not a list of "good teams".

K State at 29 means the entire Big XII is in the top 29. Guess we get the excuse that the SEC always uses about how we will all beat each other up in conference play, toughest road, blah blah blah.

Exactly. That is why the Big XII is so high because we all play each other and thus far most of the Big XII has decent records. Once we all beat up on each other and everyone gets their OU loss on their records they will start spreading out.

Now, if only the writers out there would stop kissing the SEC's butt.

Hell, even Colin Cowherd today called the Big 12 the best and he is BY NO MEANS a Big 12 apologist.

That's a fact.

Gawd, wouldn't it suck to be the suck in the BigXII this year?

[kevpks]

Yeah it will suck for a team like OSU. This is their best team in years and they will still most likely end up in a bowl less than or equal to whatever meaningless bowl they played in last year.
