Well, they had better do a whole lot better job of coaching and scheming if they're going to beat Texas.   

Slothfense is back . . . we looked slow, the O-line couldn't get any push, Dimel/Miller/Snyder have been exposed.

Much, much better. Everyone needs a little R&R.

Is this right?

Assume we lose to Texas and OU loses to OSU and all 4 of us end up 7 - 2 in conference.  The first multi-team tie breaker is record against the other tied teams so:

KSU 2 - 1
Texas 2-1
OU 1 -2
OSU 1 - 2

This eliminates OU and OSU so then it goes to head to head and Texas wins the Fiesta bid?

According to Ubben, yes.

A second Dr. Pepper would be amazing.  Would anyone go to the Fiesta Bowl at all?

Meh. I might. But I certainly wouldn't love it.

Wonder what the presale for the Fiesta looks like, could this ruin our bowl reputation?

Are you saying that playing in the Fiesta Bowl will hurt the image of our program?

I'd say losing to a team that has had a winning conference season once in the history of the Big 12 did the trick.

If our presale for the NC was greatly outpacing their expected returns, as rumored, I'd say a large portion of them check marked the Fiesta Bowl while they did it.  I don't know any facts or anything, just my suspicion.  I have a hard time believing a large portion of those excited enough to pre-order for the NC didn't check mark the Fiesta while they were at it.

I didn't.  Didn't even consider it.

I will be very excited about the Fiesta Bowl.  It's a BCS bowl and we were predicted to finished with a below .500 conference record by most.

It's a great bowl game, primarily imo b/c it means we're the big 12 champs.  But I didn't think it was necessary to pre-order tickets, monetarily speaking.
