    TCU had a nice effort.


    On to the next one.. 9-1 in the conference is the goal now.

    I'm pretty sure that's not possible, unless they manage to get a bowl game against another Big12 team. :)

    Losing Spencer Drango for the season is much more significant than most people seem to realize. He's an ideal LT. Our best pass protector by far, and Petty's blind-side hasn't been nearly as clean since he went down.

    Being at home should make up for a lot.

    It could happen with a win ESP if it's convincing. Anyone else have any input?

    You're a disgrace. Please go be a "fan" of another team.

    Yes they will. NI losing opens up a spot and with a Baylor win they should get in. A michigan st win complicates it since that gives them an auto spot and ohio st will probably get an at large. Only 2 SEC teams can make it in which means you don't have to worry about 2 out of the 4 ahead.

    Please go to the game and sit in the UT student section. Wear a burnt orange jersey and boo the longhorns. Please do that.

    I don't boo the horns, I boo mack and the decisions he makes. (and I sit in the student section...since I'm a student) I like him as a person, but It's time for him to go. If he comes back next season here's the way it will go down, more or less (borrowing here from a guy on OB)

    aside...I'm sorry to baylor fans for bringing UT debate into this thread...I was just wishing y'all luck.

    If OKST and Baylor win, I believe we're in line for the Cotton Bowl bid vs an SEC team. Which team from the SEC we end up playing.... Apparently there are a lot of possibilities. I've heard it could be LSU, Missou, Auburn, or South Carolina depending on how this weekend plays out.

    I read from "multiple sources" last night that if OK State and Baylor both win:

    OK State to Fiesta; and

    Baylor to Sugar against SEC team.

    <blockquote class="twitter-tweet" lang="en"><p>Sugar Bowl is a 50-50 toss-up between Oregon and Baylor. If Baylor loses to Texas, that might be enough for Ducks.</p>&mdash; BCS Guru (@BCSGuru) <a href="https://twitter.com/BCSGuru/statuses/409180340167524353">December 7, 2013</a></blockquote>

    It seems the whole "we're disappointed to be trying to make the Rose Bowl" would be a discouraging statement for a BCS Bowl. I find it hard to believe the Sugar wouldn't take an 11-1 Baylor team that's just one state away over an Oregon team that's disappointed with a BCS game and is halfway across the country.

    Ah that's right. I hadn't taken the NIU loss into account. Guessing its Bama, Missou, or Auburn that we would play in that case.
