What I don't understand is why the Oklahoma state reserves aren't being driven up right now. If I'm one of the Bama fans buying up reserves for their team at 7-8-900 a pop then I sure as hell would be buying up some cheap OSU reserves as well just to cover my arse if tide gets left out championship game by voters. Just goes to show how cocky and/or naive they are.

Please discuss Ok State's wins. And seriously ask yourself how would these teams rank in the SEC.

Texas?
aTm?
K State?

I'm guessing that they're a)overconfident and B) not worried about recouping their $$

Bama and LSU are really good

Arky hasn't beat anyone and been smoked by LSU and Arky

The rest of the conference is not very good

From top to bottom the Big 12 has better teams this year

Obviously the SEC is stronger at the to with Bama and LSU, no doubt, but the heart of the Big 12 is much better

Bam a has not played anyone outside of losing to LSU and beating a so s Arky team, no other ranked teams.......

It is odd that they never seem to mention the very real possibility that OSU could jump Bama assuming they win next weekend. It's almost as if they want Bama/LSU and don't want voters to be aware of exactly how much power they have over that scenario

It isn't. Its supposed to be the two highest ranked teams. And it will be. There is nothing disturbing about an "inferior" team being ranked above a "superior" one. Results supersede subjective analysis.

The reserves or tickets??? Not sure ... if we end up with all 4 we may ask friends if they want the tickets. And you can't sell reserves to a specific person can you?

Wonder what they $$ will be if OSU does go? Do they travel well?

And who is to say Ok State isn't better. They have the same record and won a conference that has been statistically better than the SEC.


This is one thing that I don't think is getting enough play in the media. The SEC is terrible this year, and Bama's only OOC game was a mediocre PSU. I don't get the automatic assumption that they are miles ahead of the rest of CFB when they're blowing out the worst AU and OM teams in decades.

If OSU beats OU

OU = Arky
K State >>>>>>> Penn State
Baylor >>>>>> Auburn
Texas > Florida with no Brantley
a&m >>> Miss State
Missouri >>>>>> Tennessee

I means seriously the 3rd best team Bama beat this year is Auburn. An Aurburn team that has other loses of 14, 24, 35, and 38 points. Their 4th best win was against a 6-6 Florida team that was keeping it close until they lost their QB. I don't see how anybody could possibly look at their resumes and think Bama's is better.

That doesn't matter. The reason Oklahoma State is so strong in the computers is because the bottom third of their schedule is really strong compared to the bottom third of other AQ teams' schedules. ULL and Tulsa have performed much better than the cupcakes on most AQ teams' schedules. As a matter of fact, their weakest non-conference game was against Arizona, a PAC 12 team.
