Who you got first week ...

[surly]

Can't imagine any big upsets here, so I'm marking with B12 chalk, but placement based on degree of confidence in each winning.

1. TCU v. Southern
2. oSu v. Missouri State
3. Baylor v. Abliene Christian
4. K-State v. South Dakota
5. ISU v. the Jacks
6. OU v. the fightin' Kiffins
7. WVU v. Tennessee
8. Ku v. Nicholls State
9. Texas v. Maryland
10. TxT v. Ole Miss

 

[dinger]

Give me Maryland, Ole Miss and ACU.

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Wouldn’t at all be surprised to see a 10-0 week from the conference but somebody will slip up.

 

[CyCrazy]

South Dakota

 

[surly]

South Dakota

You forgot State.

 

[rholtgraves]

I think Tech is the only team that loses.

 

[BCClone]

Abilene Christian with an ISU connection.

.

No way Maryland beats Texas with their HC on paid leave and will probably be fired

1. TCU v. Southern
2. Oklahoma State v. Missouri State
3. Kansas State v. South Dakota
4. Baylor v. Abliene Christian
5. OU v. FAU
6. Iowa State v. SDSU
7. Ole Miss v. Texas Tech
8. WVU v. Tennessee
9. Texas v. Maryland
10. Nicholls State v. Kansas

Fairly large gap between 6 and 7 I believe.

 

[Cardinal and Gold]

Clean sweep. All BIg 12 wins. Only one I am iffy on is Texas Tech vs. Ole Miss

 

[weR138]

If KU loses does Beatty get fired before he hits the locker room?

I think he'll be on a very short leash. If I'm KU I'm looking to get a head start on the coaching search. I just don't see this season going well for Beatty.

Don't sleep on FAU.

 

[Cardinal and Gold]

Don't sleep on FAU.

If they were playing any Big 12 team besides OU, TCU, and WVU I would probably have them winning, but I think OU has the handle on this one imo

 

[TheJackWePack5]

Don't sleep on FAU.

FAU is a decent team but OU should roll them.

 

[weR138]

FAU is a decent team but OU should roll them.

Agreed...but they "shoulda" rolled us too last season. Lincoln better have the Sooners ready for that one.

 

[harimad]

Eight Big 12 victories, plus Maryland and South Dakota.

 

[CascadeClone]

I think Tech is the only team that loses.

Agree.
Maybe WV loses, IDK where that game is at.
No way Maryland, with all that's going on there, goes to Texas and wins. If they do, Herman will be in deep manure.

Agreed. Maybe without all the distractions you could pick Maryland, but that program is in complete disarray right now. I'm not buying into all the "Texas is back hype" but they are not losing to that Maryland team.
