People are saying we have a chance for 2nd, which is right. Nobody has said that it is given.Quote:

First off, don't tell me I don't know what I am talking about. Second, you used the word "should" this time. Of course we should beat those teams, I am not saying we shouldn't and won't. All I was saying is that guaranteeing or saying no way we lose any of the next four is asinine.Quote:

There are three terrible teams in this conference, TTU, TCU and WVU. Once Texas gets Kabongo back, I think anyone could beat any team on their home floor. I don't think it's as down as people think. The top 7 teams are solid. We could finish in 2nd if we played like we did tonight.Quote:

Texas is pretty bad and I am not sure how much getting Kabongo back will help. They have a lot of problems. Also, after seeing OU this year I would say they are not very good. Also I have not been all that impressed with OSU and KSU although they both do have a nice win or two.Quote:
