who wins the 'ship this year in the big 12?
Prediction: TCU. However, I think that everyone in the Big 12 will have 1 loss. It'll come down to the Baylor @ TCU game, and while I think Baylor is the better team with the game being at TCU I think the Frogs will benefit from the home field advantage.
Betting Pick: Oklahoma. I think they have decent value @ 5-1 or so.
Long Shot: Texas. Have a pretty managable conference schedule. Open up with vs. Okie St. Then @TCU and with OU at the Cotton Bowl. Get a bye. Then have vs. KSU, @ISU, vs. KU, and @WVU. (could be favored in all of these games) Then another bye. Home with Tech and then 9 days before going to Baylor.
I think that UT will probably be a 7-5/6-6 type team, but I think Strong is a good coach and their schedule sets up alright for them. As a long shot, that would be my pick.
