i'd put the odds of us winning out at somewhere around 0%

Obviously I agree that we will win out in conference, but it's absurd to think that bill will try to win a bowl game.

LALA looks decent, BTW.

5 of our 6 opponents haven't lost since we played them. And the 6th is UMass, who is absolute dog crap. Apparently after playing the Cats everyone else seems to be a step down in competition.

We've played a pretty decent schedule, but UMass is on pace to have the worst offense in at least that last 12 years, and its not even close.

They currently sit at .103 points per possession, the worst I can find in the last dozen years is Buffalo with .145 ppp.

Another advanced stat is yards per point. Michigan currently leads the country at 10.5 yards per point. UMass is at 40.8 yards per point. The next worst team nationally is La Monroe at 24.1.

yards per point is an interesting stat

fun to think about

FWIW...Last year we led the country at 10.4 and this year we are 35th at 13.0.

Obviously this has as much to do with field position and non-offensive TDs as it does the offense.

man its fun to think about how we were the best ever for a little while

i mean yards per point by itself does not tell you how good an offense is, but more how much does D/ST help the offense

Unlike some of you who thought the world was ending after losing to UT, K-State to me as been as solid as anyone on defense and as bipolar as anyone on offense. They played as undisciplined of football have seen in Stillwater. I have to see what TTU does this weekend, but it is not out of the realm of possibility that the Cats win the remaining games.

If OU wins handily then I agree K-State can go 8-4. But if TTU hands the Sooners their ass which I expect to happen, then the Big XII championship will be decided in Waco on November 16.

Isn't the Tech-Baylor game at a neutral site this year?

wetwillie · « **Reply #112 on:** October 23, 2013, 08:36:43 PM »

I don't think tech is good enough to run train on anyone in the big12 other than KU. I think they are better than OU but not as good as Baylor or Texas.

The title will be decided on Dec. 7 in Waco. Doubtful that Texas has more than 1 B12 loss before then.

That sounds right for some reason. It just indicated Baylor will be the hometeam. That will make it even better. But again there is a lot of football left to be played.

I question whether UT beats TCU this weekend, but doubt if they get passed WVU in Morgantown.

Saturday afternoon is likely (based on chirp) to make #8-4 look bright, and #dickweed look stupid
