    Big 12 Conference Forecast

    Sunday, August 24, 2008, 09:36 PM EST [Big 12]

    EDITED: I made this list pretty late at night, and after reading some of the comments and thinking about it a bit more I think I made a few errors. Kansas beating Colorado at home is a change. I'm not sure why I had that game the other way originally. I also gave Texas 2 more losses because they have a brutal 5 game stretch @ Colorado, @ Oklahoma, Missouri, Oklahoma State, @ Texas Tech. They also play @ Kansas. I don't see them only losing to Oklahoma in that stretch. Those losses are Texas Tech (didn't know they had 19 returning starters) and Missouri (decided Texas wasn't bringing back enough starters to take them in that one). The Longhorns could certainly win those games, but they still have a lot of other very tough games, so that's my reasoning for dropping their record. 

     

    Here is my forecast of records for the Big 12 conference, minus the Big 12 title game. Feel free to comment and discuss. I would appreciate substantive comments instead of ones like, "WHAT!?!?! (insert team) is going to be (insert record)!?!?! NO WAY!!!" Feel free to disagree and comment about your disagreement, but try to add a little more to the discussion besides insults and disagreements without reasons. And as always, let's go Big 12!!


    North

    Missouri                       12-0   8-0

    Kansas                         8-4     4-4

    Colorado                      7-5     5-3

    Nebraska                     5-7     2-6

    Kansas State                5-7     2-6

    Iowa State                    4-8     1-7

     

    South

    Oklahoma                    12-0     8-0

    Texas Tech                   11-1    7-1

    Texas                            9-3      5-3

    Oklahoma State            7-5      3-5

    Texas A&M                 6-6      3-5

    Baylor                          2-10    0-8

     

     

    I will probably make a revised Big 12 forecast after the non-conference schedule (after 4th game).
