Really?? I certainly thought it would be a closer game, something like 45-38.. but this is just crazy.

The Big 12 Championship is going to be a hot debate, with 3 one loss teams.

Won't be much of a debate... it will be OU in the championship with a game like that in the last couple weeks of the season... I wanted OU to win, but I wanted it to be a close game so Texas would still go to the chamionship... but witha game like that, it is almost certainly gonna be:

1. Alabama
2. Florida
3. OU
4. Texas
5. USC

Then maybe Tech will fall to 6 or so... and the highest ranked big 12 south team in the last week is the one who will play for the championship...

At least Florida will spank bama in the SEC title game and that should bump Texas up to finish 3 for the season...

Sorry, maybe I didn't word my statement correctly. I meant the Big 12 championship game, not the national championship game. Is it OU for TX or OU vs TT?

TT certainly has a case considering they beat Texas.. but then Texas beat OU.. so who deserves to go?

well just from watching. I think if the game had been neutral site at least would have been a game. Stoops is 50-2 in Norman. that says alot about Home field advantage, I don't care who you are. 50 wins 2 losses AT HOME!? thats brutal. what I saw was harrell trying to make play after play after play when OU had their number. I think Tech is a good football team, but just doesn't have the Character... now what happens if OU looses to OSU? possibility, it's at OSU, big game let down? Alabama to lose to Auburn in 6 days... you heard it here first.

the team that won on a neutral field (Texas) by double digits (rather than at home). Texas also spanked the north champ (Mizzou) by 3+ TDs.

However, regardless of this week's rankings, lets not forget everyone still has another regular season game left, a lot can happen.

they don't need to be #1 (don't deserve to at this point as Bama is undefeated), they just need to be ahead of OU in the BCS standings next sunday.

I'm no fan of Texas by any means (it's a Rick Barnes thing), but I would much rather Texas jump up rather than OK, that's for sure.

Yes they do... but the only way that would happen is if the computers love Texas' wins and schedule more than OUs... I just saw the AP this morning and it is exactly like I called it last night...
