At this point, I think you're just having fun stoking the fires of these doomsday posters.

I just want to make sure people are freaking out about the correct things.

Just go with ISU beating West Virginia.
Texas will beat either KSU or Kansas...if KU doesn't decide to Covid forfeit the rest of the season.

I think Texas is going to COVID forfeit.

I think Texas is going to COVID forfeit.

Yes...Texas Covid forfeits...God I hate Texas

SIAP - if Baylor Covid forfeited the rest of the season, we would be in, right? Neither OU nor OSU has played them yet, so without Baylor, the best either could do would be 6 conference wins. Just another possible scenario if we're talking about UT forfeiting.

No, because the conference ranks teams by the loss column, not the win column.

Tom Herman for his job security is going to want to kick the ever-loving **** out of KState and KU. That's what UT teams do to bad teams after a loss. He will have them ready. UTs freshman could beat Kansas, and Kstate's offense is just bad - like old Iowa State bad under Paul Rhoads and Mess bad.

I don’t think Tom makes it past Tuesday.

12/5:

TCU over oSu
UT over KSU
ISU over WVU (control own destiny)

12/12:
BU over oSu

Covid puts about 25% uncertainty into about anything for me.

Can someone explain how Texas beating KU guarantees ISU is in? I ran the mred simulator and don't see how it guarantees it as WV, KSU, UT could all finish 5-4, with WV wining the tiebreaker, and if they're #4 and we're tied with OU and OSU, we lose out.

For some reason, I thought the 8th option was Oklahoma over West Virginia.

I don't love a senecio where we have to count on Texas winning games.

They will beat Kansas by at least 30. This might be the worst Kansas team ever.

I think they have to split the 1st place tie before splitting any tie down the line

They do split all two - way ties first, but not ties with three or more teams.

If you’ve been an ISU fan for more than 20 years you already know what is going to happen.

Texas will turn the ball over 8-9 times and lose 10-7 to K-state.

ISU will lose in OT to WVU in some horrifying way that we can’t even imagine.

We’ll be assured next week everything will be fine. Until we start reading about the COVID outbreak on both KU and Texas teams.

I believe in that scenario, we’re in.
