OK.
Who voted for Boston College?

Again I must rain on my alma matre's parade. Texas has beaten:

Central Florida (5-3)
Ark ST. (3-5)
Rice (1-7)
TCU (1-4 in the tough mountain west)
Iowa St. (1-8)
Baylor (0-5 in the Big 12)
Nebraska (1-4 in the Big 12 4-5 overall)

We have not beaten ONE decent team, not one. If Texas gets into a bowl game of any significance it will be awful mess unless vast improvement takes place.
Texas had Jamaal Charles had to gain over 200 yards and score 3 touchdowns, IN THE LAST QUARTER, to pull out a win in Austin over Nebraska. Help me please.

ut and uga are back atop of the sec east, ut in first with the tie break over uga. ut still has to play arky, vandy, ky. uga gets the barners and ky at home. the problem with these two, WHO KNOWS which team will show up. ut is probably the worst of the two, they get behind and quit.

in the west lsu should beat Bama this week and lock it up. IF Bama would win they still have to face msu and the barners. the barners have 2 losses and pretty much out at this point.

Colorado has improved a great deal.
They would thump Texas right now.

Oklahoma beat Miami 56-10 or some such massacre.
Texas wins are just awful.

And Colt McCoy got beat up again.
Honestly if I was his dad he would
be taken to a doctor and found to
have a concussion. Out for the season.

The kid is getting killed every game.
Running for his life every other pass play.

Almost any team in the SEC would kill Texas right now.

Well you have to give them credit...they had quite a run there.

I remain flabbergasted how anyone ranks Oklahoma ahead of Kansas. Kansas has zero losses. Kansas beat Colorado on the road. Oklahoma couldn't beat Colorado on the road. They had the same test Oklahoma had...they passed, Oklahoma failed...until Kansas loses there is not one sane person who can rank Oklahoma ahead of them.

History.
Its not just about this season.
Oklahoma is a perennial powerhouse.
Of course the voters will tell you differently.

If Kansas ends the season with zero losses I will walk there and buy the coach a cheeseburger...

I understand that. It's still wrong. IT should be only about this season...the whole season. You have to toss in the Oklahoma team that played Colorado and Iowa State with the Oklahoma team that played Missouri in the rankings. I don't agree with Cannon Shell, that it is highly unlikely Kansas goes undefeated...all they have left are Missouri (at home) and Ok State on the road. Two winnable games in my opinion. I think it's at least a 50-50 shot they go undefated in the regular season. OF course the Big 12 championship game against most likely Oklahoma would be where it could all come crashing down (and prove how smart those pollsters really are!!). But to me at this point they are clearly number 1 in the Big 12 and should be the highest ranked Big 12 team in the polls...they beat K State and Colorado on the road and Texas A & M on the road...granted those aren't powerhouses...but still very good road wins. Texas couldn't beat K-State at home and Oklahoma couldn't beat Colorado. There is zero excuse for them not to be the highest ranked Big 12 team in the polls at this juncture.

To me it's like if LSU were 8-0 and beat Georgia on the road and Florida was 7-1 and lost to Georgia and the pollsters had Florida 4 spots higher in the polls. Would there be no discussion or outrage at that in Louisiana?? Or Oregon is 8-0 and beats Cal on the road and USC is 7-1 and loses to Cal and USC is ranked 4 spots higher in the polls. Would any of those scenarios ever happen?? I don't think so. The Kansas/Oklahoma rankings are completely obscene.
