WVU has been playing in the Big East.  They are not used to playing a "bad" team that is as good as Tech, and they have to go on the road to do it, right after beating Texas, and right before playing a top 5 K-State.  I could see that upset happening.

This talking point has been beaten to death, and I am so sick of it. WV looks focused on dominating their conference. Their HC knows Lubbock. I don't see a let down coming. If there is one, maybe after they play OU, but that will have nothing to do with them being in a better conference, and everything to do with their having played 3 top 10 teams in one season. That type of schedule is conducive to a let down for any team. If Alabama played Florida, SC, and LSU within about a month span, the next opponent would not be getting Alabama at 100%.

I can't see them beating OU.  I think OU is the best team in this conference.

Wasn't the OU game at 6:50? Why are the 6pm now?

On Saturdays where they only show 1 game, they put it at 6:50 pm cst so it can be in primetime.  On days where they have a doubleheader, the first game is at 2:00 pm cst, then they have a bridge show, then the second game is at 6:00 pm cst so they don't lose those viewers and have to fill in an additional 50 minutes.

On 10/20, they will have Stanford/Cal at 2:00pm cst, then the bridge show, then the KSU/WVU game at 6:00pm cst.

I think everybody would agree the 4 best teams in the conference are (in no particular order) KSU, WVU, UT, OU

so after they all play each other, we will know, but OU is the not the right answer at this point.

OU has played 1 of the other 3 best teams, at home, and lost.
UT has played 1 of the other 3 best teams, at home, and lost.
KSU has played 1 of the other 3 best teams, on the road, and won.
WVU has played 1 of the other 3 best teams, on the road, and won.

We all watched that OU game. KSU had to play their very best to beat them...and OU needed to make a few mistakes.

OU is really good. And there will not be a rematch.

KSU did not play particularly well on offense.

I'm really surprised this game isn't on ABC or ESPN. Kinda weird that we haven't had one game on an ESPN network yet.

jfc, we're on a rough ridin' network in prime time for the second of three times this year. what more do you losers want?

Calm down tard. I didn't say I wanted anything more. Just making an observation.

The reason the OU game kicked off at 6:50 was because of the MLB games that afternoon.



also Ira Hayes is a rough ridin' crap poster

Bump.

Not much of an upset. OU is the best team in the conference.

There will not be a rematch.
