Here is how the Big 12 North will finish..

[catzacker]

Basically, we're out of the running unless ku loses three games and we win out .

Yes.  I put the odds of us winning out AND ku losing 3 of their last 5 at about 5%.

I agree. Things just don't fall for us (usually for any team) like that.

Unless you're the 2006 Chefs.

Yep.  3 games is just too much to ask.  Last year UT lost the final 2 to give OU the South.  That's the most I can remember a team pissing away.  

'03, for us, would be the closest after we dropped our first 2 conference games, but those were south games and NU and MU had one loss each after we lost to OSU.

And those were because we had an injured Ell Roberson waiting to explode.

MU last year started off winning a bunch in a row and ended up 4-4 in conference.  Teams "piss" away that many games all the time especially when their schedule is back loaded with the harder games at the end.  ku is only 3-0 hell I think Baylor might have been 3-0 at one point last year it doesn't mean a lot at this point.  Not saying we're going to win the North but ku going 5-3 is not an unlikely scenario.  

[catfan28]

I think we will go 5-3 in the conf with the loss coming to Missouri.

I can understand why Koug picked Nebraska to beat us. It will be their senior day and they will have nothing to lose in that game and they will find it hilarious if they beat us when they are having such a crappy year.

That game in Lincoln will be very very big for us. We lose that game
and then we will probably be forced to beat Fresno to get a decent bowl game, if a bowl game at all.

That being said, again I think we will win our next three, stumble to the Tigers and then win a close one at Fresno.

8-4 and off to the Alamo Bowl.

I heard that NU is actually just saving all of their energy for us.. Look out guys.

We're everybody's superbowl:  UT, ku, NU.....   

[fatty fat fat]

you people can't be serious about Nu. have some confidence in your team.

[kougar24]

you people can't be serious about Nu. have some confidence in your team.

No. It hurts too much.

[jmlynch1]

OT: Does anyone actually give a crap about the bowl game once we get there? Sure, its nice to win, but I don't think I really ever care all that much. Thoughts?

[pissclams]

Yes.  I always want to dominate successful programs from outside our conference at any given opportunity.  Always.

Divisional Tiebreakers: The following procedure will determine the representative from each division in the event of a tie:

If two teams are tied, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative
If three or more teams are tied, steps 1 through 7 will be followed until a determination is made. If only two teams remain tied after any step, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.

1. The records of the three teams will be compared against each other
2. The records of the three teams will be compared within their division
3. The records of the three teams will be compared against the next highest placed teams in their division in order of finish (4, 5 and 6)
4. The records of the three teams will be compared against all common conference opponents;
5. The highest ranked team in the fi rst Bowl Championship Series Poll following the completion of Big 12 regular season conference play shall be the representative
6. The team with the best overall winning percentage [excluding exempted games] shall be the representative
7. The representative will be chosen by draw.

So if ku loses to OSU and Mizzou then it comes down to BCS Rating which would most likely put Mizzou in. If ku doesn't lose to OSU then it puts Mizzou in because they beat ku. Basically, we're out of the running unless ku loses three games and we win out or we win out and some how end up with a higher BCS rank than Mizzou and ku (is that likely?).

There are no common conference opponents among the 3 teams so tiebreak number 4 would not apply.  In the scenarios above looks like it would come down to the BCS ranking.

You're right, I wasn' totaling all three together..

It should be of no surprise to anyone that the ex-Scout moderators are some of the dumbest posters on this board.  kougar and cire spent way too much time going down on SeanK to know anything about sports.

Mine has been the most realistic prediction in this thread, chica.

LOL...everybody thinks that about their own prediction.  That is why it is their prediction.      

[SuperSoulFighter]

So the loss to Auburn will cost us the north title in a tie breaker.  That really doesn't brighten my day.

Actually.. it will be BCS rank. Unless you're saying that we would have a higher BCS rank if we hadn't lost to Auburn..
