I made a thread last week about the 4 clearly dominant Big 12 teams and how they all don't play until later in the year....then this happens!

It's a bit scary for the league that no one seems extremely above the pack right now, they need a 1 loss champ to emerge to make the playoffs

judging by the road everyone has left to go Oklahoma and West Virginia are the only ones that can get this league into the playoff

Every team in the league this year except West Virginia I guess, has a shown enough warts that a playoff game would end in embarrassing fashion most likely. It is what it is.

West Virginia probably needs to play a team with a pulse before we annoit them as Big 12 champions.

They havent beaten a team that is likely to get to a bowl game.

They might be really really good...or they might be taking advantage of the weakest schedule in the league.

Tennessee looks god awful in the SEC and might not win another game all season.

Kansas State has looked really bad as well, but who knows as they tend to finish strong.

We need to see a little more of West Virginia, K-State, Tennessee as well to judge those 3 teams fairly.

My gut says you are 100% correct. I thought our offense would be super dynamic but special teams and defense would be a weakness but we MIGHT be able to outscore a few teams to make up for the other two phases but a Big12 title would be unattainable unless we grew by leaps and bounds on ST’s and defense.

I have seen nothing to change my mind on that. I like UT’s heart but wasnt sold on their talent when we played em but hoped I’d see growth later in the season but after the UF game... yikes. They look awful plus players quitting during the game ect.. looks like there will be growing pains there for awhile and agree , they may not win another game.

YSU exposed our defense imo and they ain’t anywhere near Big12 caliber offensively.

I dont think its a reach by me saying that KState sucks this year. I wasn’t impressed with them at all. May be the worst Snyder team I’ve seen since we joined the conference.

Watch the TT game this week, watch our defense and ST’s ( I think our offense will be fine).
Gut says we are going to see gold n blue “warts” all over Tortillaville. I just hope we get out with a win.

I agree with everyth8ng you said except the “weakest schedule in the league.” That was not the weakest schedule in the league thus far.

Can one of you tell us what West Virginia’s record against OU is since joining the Big12?

And Oklahoma is still seriously flawed on defense. One of these track-meet games, they're going to slip up and turn the ball over one or two times

I mean, Army dude...Obviously you guys can improve as a team, but the current evidence isn't in the leagues favor.

I get it, I’m still processing what I saw the other night. OU still has a chance to be the best offense in the country again and even a slight improvement in defense puts them back in the mix by year’s end. Some tough games coming up soon, hopefully this motivates them.
