Rob E Dangerously Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Lets look at the standings in conference for the North so far Colorado: 1-1 (beat Kansas, lost to Baylor) Kansas: 1-1 (beat Missouri, lost to Colorado) Missouri: 1-1 (beat Nebraska, lost to Kansas) Nebraska: 1-1 (beat Oklahoma State, lost to Missouri) Kansas State: 0-2 (lost to Texas and Oklahoma State) Iowa State: 0-2 (lost to Oklahoma and Texas Tech) Anybody (except for the Cyclones) can win the North. This week.. here are my predictions.. feel free to dispute them Oklahoma by 24 over Missouri. The point spread is 26 1/2 for OU, which is a bit too high. Kansas murders Baylor. Kansas State has a close one with Colorado. Colorado gives KSU problems. Colorado also isn't that great but KSU has problems with defense. I hear that Colorado's defense is bad too. But, from now on.. my projections indictate that Nebraska will win the North but will finish with the same conference record as KSU. K-State has a shot to win five games. They will beat Iowa State and Baylor. They can beat Colorado. They better beat Kansas and they will have a big one with Missouri. I see Nebraska beating K-State. Nebraska is going to have a tough one with Texas, but something tells me Nebraska will lose to Colorado too. But, this is Nebraska. Nothing really tells me that they are going to finish so well this year. They might melt down. Missouri will probably beat Colorado and ISU. Brad Smith is a good QB. Oklahoma will pound MU, KSU will beat MU too. The fourth loss for MU will surprise you but.. Texas Tech will beat Missouri. BJ Symons and Tech's offense is just as high-powered as the offense of Kansas and Bill Whittemore, who beat MU. BJ's stats are incredible 297 yards, 3 TDs (v. SMU) 418 yards, 5 TDs (v. New Mexico) 586 yards, 2 TDs (v. NCSU) 661 yards, 6 TDs (v. Ol Miss) 505 yards, 8 TDs (v. A&M) 487 yards, 3 TDs (v. ISU) 27 TDs in 6 games I just sense that even with the game in Columbia, Symons will demolish the MU defense. But.. I should note that OU is a huge favorite to win the division in the title game when it's held in KC. The Big 12 North is wide open.
Bored Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Could have just posted this in the college football thread.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Who really cares? I mean whoever wins is just going to get butchered by OU.
razazteca Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 Let Colorado beat them like last year and get snubbed because they are not a draw or have enough name value to enter a "good" bowl game.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted October 13, 2003 Report Posted October 13, 2003 The BCS He's probably referring to Nebraska getting into the National Title over Colorado a few yrs. back.
razazteca Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Yeah sorry about the misunderstanding. I hate teh BCS.
Vern Gagne Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 Oregon was the only team who had a right to complain about not making the Championship game. Colorado had 2 losses. They sealed their fate in early September.
Guest Salacious Crumb Posted October 14, 2003 Report Posted October 14, 2003 I think Colorado had a right to complain as they dominated Nebraska right before the decision was made.
