It would all depend who won. There are number of games this week with teams playing with similar rankings to what we have in this game. For the moment, say that Arky is in the 25-30 range:

FLA- Arky
'Bama- South Carolina
* - us
Boise - Tulsa
Cincy- USF
Iowa- Wisky
SUC- ND
VT- Ga Tech

Without going much further, there are number of games that resemble OUrs. It also depends how the pollsters view us. Look at the current rankings to see that we are still ranked ahead of BYU, even though they beat us and we have more losses. Pollsters view us as an anomaly. We lost 2 games by a total of 2 points without, arguably, the best player in America. What would be interesting is if there are a slew of unimpressive 1-loss teams throughout America going into the final weeks of the season to see where we are. If we are in the 5-8 range, that means that, in the eyes of the polls (human and computer), we are a 1-loss team. It sounds strange, and you don't see it very often in college football (you do in college BBALL), having a team with more losses ranked along with, or ahead of, others with less losses. I guarantee after we beat *, and we beat KU, we will be ranked ahead of them, even though they will have just 1 loss.

From My Other Thread....."14 teams I want to see Lose...."

JMHO ~ But For OU to End up in the "Top Ten" as The Season Ends, Not Only do We Have to Win Out, But We Need to Have as Many *Two Loss Teams* as Possible....The Faster thier are top 20 teams with TWO Loss's The Better for OU -Waiting around to the end of the Season for Upsets might not move us up in the rankings that much, Remember just because you beat a higher ranked team,doesn't mean you will pass them in the Rankings.The longer one loss teams stay in "The Top 20" the less chance they fall that much...

We need Lots of Top 15 teams to go Down ASAP (Now).....Once again JMHO....!!!

Keep Rockin'

still here. just got other things to do. i can talk football with you. the game will be close through 3 qtrs then horns win in the 4th just like last year. but if you cant keep sam upright early it could be a long day for you. o-line will be your downfall.

If OU loses a close one, we stay the same.

If OU wins we move up to 15th. Texas drops but stays in top 10.
