Oklahoma has proven itself time and again at the top levels of competition. When Baylor went to the BCS last season, they let UCF hang 52 points on them in a loss. They're good, but I'm not yet convinced that they're at the very top.

Haha this Texas team is so bad that losing to us is unacceptable at Kansas

This is petty, but you're referring to a team that lost convincingly to a Case McCoy-led Texas and got throttled by that same Baylor squad a year after losing to KSU and an overrated ND on their home field before getting embarassed by an admittedly very good Aggie squad?

Iowa and Kansas should form a frat like club for Big XII losers and go on wacky hijinks

Agenda:

1) Kick out Baylor
2) Haze new pledges Tech and Texas.

We'd happily accept you. Having State and Iowa not in the same conference confused my parents when I was talking football with them, which I found really funny. Mind you, you'd have to give up the conservative offense and funsling with the rest of the conference, but these adjustments can be made.

Jesus christ I really wish that national title game would have been a little closer for ND. The number of people who think the team was garbage because of that bad loss is obnoxious.

Baylor would have gotten destroyed too. There's like 3 teams that could have hung around against that Bama team. They already played them in conference.

ND was in there by virtue of not losing, and a lot of the reasons they didn't lose some of those games came down to effectively dumb luck.

It's like the opposite of the Detroit Lions' 2008 winless seasons - they really weren't *that* much worse than a lot of the teams that year, they just had luck go a certain way.

My hangover is as bad as our loss to Baylor.

I thought you guys played well and had really good fans. No one left early, they kept cheering til the end and sparked that Iowa State run in the 2nd half. Also, your coach didn't give up like a bitch and kept calling onsides kicks and stuff that I'm always confused when other teams don't do when they're down 3-4 TDs or whatever.

Seems weird to put Missouri in the Top 25 if losing to them was so bad we fell out completely, but oh well. We're not a Top 25 team regardless, so that's just splitting hairs at this point.

I think ISU's pretty solid this year, really - though despite Texas convincing the media otherwise, the rest of the league is pretty solid too, so wins still won't be easy to find. They've got a non-con game coming up to get them to two wins, then they'll probably beat Kansas, but it's all upsets from there. Wins over Texas Tech and West Virginia wouldn't shock me in Ames, but after that their best chances are probably at a good Okie Lite and a Texas team that will outmuscle them even worse than we did.
