20-7 OSU at the half.

Will Howard has been turrrible. He threw a pick 6 where he stared his receiver down so hard, you'd have to be blind not to know where the football was going. KSU offense not good.

KSU goes down 29-21.

Per KFord ratings Big 12 championship chances OU 82%, UT 69%, KSU 34%, WVU 11%. So 1 of the two teams with a >10% chance of making the Big 12 Champ goes down to a team at the bottom of the league. I think we end up playing OU twice in dallas this year regardless of our outcome tomorrow.

BTW, Kfords algorithm really likes OU but he himself has said he doesn't like OU over Texas tomorrow.
 
What was it about Oklahoma's weak schedule that convinced the Ford ratings. lol

UT will seem like supermen tomorrow because ou hasn't faced anything remotely as good (or big, or fast).

I think most ranking algorithms this early in the season can struggle based on strength of schedule. They all seem to have ways of attempting to account for that but it's impossible to create a perfect model.

I think one thing with some rankings is that OU has blown out their weaker competition and struggled a bit against tougher teams. Texas on the other hand has played their best ball against P5 teams and their worst against G5 teams.

I don't think ou is as good as Bama. Their WRs might be better but that's about it.

If we approach this game the same way we did Bama, we'll be fine.

West Virginia's schedule is super soft going forward.
