Ranking 2017's games in order of difficulty:
« on: August 16, 2017, 01:52:32 PM »
How do you see them? Here's my order:

1. @OSU
2. OU
3. @UT

4. TCU
5. WVU
6. @TTU
7. @Vandy
8. BU
9. ISU

10. @KU
11. Central Arky
12. Charlotte

The first tier of games are far and away the toughest IMO. We'll probably be a touchdown or so underdogs to each of the Oklahoma schools and pretty much a pick 'em against UT.

The second tier games I feel pretty good about. TCU could be improved this year. The Hoopies could be tough. Always get a little nervous with Tech on the road. We've had some trouble with there in the past. Vandy on the road early could be a little test. Baylor under a new regime.. who knows? ISU plays us tough always. They got bumped to the second tier due to their number of near misses.

Third tier of games are simple, no-brainers that you can put in the win column. No discussion needed.

What say you?

Everything I have seen mentions that every time they have had a bad season under Patterson they turn around and have a double digit win season the next year.

Fifteen minutes later, when the Kansas locker room opened its doors to the media, the Jayhawks were still crying. Literally, bawling. All of them. I've never seen anything like it, and I've seen devastated college locker rooms -- after losses in the Final Four, the national championship game -- ever

Baylor will be lucky to go bowling. Very few returning starters. And TCU might bounce back well historically but they had good qb play then. They don't now.
