The Oakies embarrassed Tech last night, and that should give Bills' Longhorns the driver's seat for the Big 12 Championship if they can beat those Heathens on the Brazos, on Thanksgiving. They should handle Mizzou again in the Big 12 Championship game and then on to a BCS game maybe for the National Championship. Lets hope.

The Redneck Raiders were good enough to scare the Okies into playing their best. If they hadn't had so many penalties it would have been even more lopsided, I think. Michael Crabtree is still a load for any defensive back.

I am not sure how this works for the Big 12. Each team has one loss to the other three. But the Okies victory last night was by a larger margin than the Texas one over OU or Tech one over Texas, don't know if that matters.

If it is Texas vs Missouri, Texas should win, too much offense for Mo to stop.

What is important to the very future of civilized Christian mankind as we have know it for centuries is at stake in the game on Thanksgiving. For the forces of Light to lose to the underworld would be unthinkable.

Football is boring. Just looks like a bunch of people running into eachother and getting hurt. If I had a choice between that and WWf, I would watch WWF.

Man, what happened to the Gophers Saturday? I really thought it would be a tight game against my Hawkeyes...

It got so bad I actually felt bad for the Minnesota seniors on team going out with a loss like that.

How bout them Broncos and Chippewas? :D

WMU did beat Illinois at Ford Field this year. Best game I've ever been to. I'm going down to Muncie tomorrow to watch us play Ball State. Should be fun, ranked team, Tuesday night, national tv. Go Broncos!

My parents are hoping Ball St. plays Mich. St. on New Years Day. They are both Ball State grads. Class of 68, old friends of Dave Letterman. I am an MSU grad (2003).

Ober, if Ball State( Who?) can do it, why not the Longhorns? Now Texas is a 31 point to 35 point favorite. But I wouldn't spend too much on that used car. I don't care how bad the Aggies played in Sept., playing Texas is another deal. And Texas has a few key injuries, they are starting the third string guy at center. The Aggies are kind of like Sampson, except in reverse; they go get their hair cut off and they get stronger. Now, Texas should be the better team and should win, but you never know what 20 year old kids will do. I just hope the Longhorns take the Aggies as seriously as they would a top ranked team.

As far as football being boring, yea there will only be about 95,000 people in the stadium being bored.

Well, I'm a Maryland Terps fan this week - they need to beat Boston College (at BC) so Florida State can back into the ACC Championship Game...

Being a (rabid) FSU fan, I'm not optimistic for out meeting with those lizards from gainseville this weekend...but it is a rivalry game and we are at home. Hopefully, Saint Bobby can pull something out of his hat! ;)

I heard the Texas Bowl is trying to get a Ball State vs Boise State matchup if neither gets into the BCS. That would be a fun midmajor game to watch! Lots of scoring :shock:
