Not sure why I thought OSU-PSU was in Columbus, as I mentioned in last week's thread. Changes my opinion of that one quite a bit.

Like Army/Navy, Colorado's a fraud, weak schedule with losses to only ranked team (and Nebraska).

The Prime Factor at work. Maybe losing more toes will get him to the CFP.

Without Texas and Oklahoma, the Big 12 is hot garbage. The one team from the Pac-12 that might have been decent, Utah, lost its QB again and is terrible.

Colorado's schedule this year is at least 50% easier than last year. No Oregon. No USC. No Washington.

He'll show @Chef2 the way.

I do love the idea that some fan bases have to root for a hated rival at this point in the season to goose the "win value" for a shot at the Playoff. That thing with ND rooting for Texas AandM was spot on. Tennessee needing Bama to return to being Bama, the Aggies needing the Longhorns to win out.

Correct on all accounts.

The Big 12 stinks.

The best win out of conference is Okie State's win over Arkansas. Okie State is 0-5 in conference.

BYU over SMU ain't bad. K-State over Tulane is underrated. But yeah, this is a case where only three non-conference games hurts (not to mention Iowa coming a cropper).

 

[playthrough]

Now it gets real for IU. At Sparty, home Michigan, at tOSU. Hoosiers still haven't trailed this season and have been a covering machine. Laying 7.5 this week.

The Big XII is fun. It's a good release after watching all the serious college football. That being said, BYU could be a problem. They are physical, decent bunch that intrigues me. And I'll always trust K-State because I'm a big Chris Klieman fan. No buys on Iowa State yet though and looking at their schedule past, present and future....a big nothing burger. They feel like the No. 7 playoff seed that's going to get a 50-spot hung on them by No. 10 Alabama.
