North Carolina 24

Already happened, so the Big 12 started off 1-0

The line is Texas by 3 1/2. Sagarin predictor says Texas by 4.5, Massey gives Texas a 58% chance of a win.

The line is Baylor by 9 1/2. Sagarin Predictor says Baylor by 11, Massey gives Baylor a 79% chance of a win.

Pinstripe Bowl on Dec 30th

The line is Rutgers by 1 1/2. Sagarin predictor says Rutgers by 1.5, Massey gives Iowa State a 56% chance of a win.

Insight Bowl on Dec 30th

The line is Oklahoma by 14. Sagarin predictor says Oklahoma by 18.5, Massey gives Oklahoma a 89% chance of a win.

Meineke Car Care of Texas Bowl on Dec 31st
Texas A&M vs. Northwestern

The line is A&M by 10. Sagarin predictor says A&M by 15, Massey gives A&M a 85% chance of a win.

Fiesta Bowl on January 2nd
Oklahoma State vs. Standford

The line is Oklahoma State by 3 1/2. Sagarin predictor says Oklahoma State by 3, Massey gives Oklahoma a 61% chance of a win.

Cotton Bowl on Jan 6th
Kansas St. vs. Arkansas

The line is Arkansas by 7 1/2. Sagarin predictor says Arkansas by 3, Massey gives K-State a 31% chance of a win.


We're favored in 6 of the 8 bowls, and I am confident that Iowa State will get the upset over rutgers, so I think there is a very good chance that we'll go into the Cotton bowl at 7-0. I think that even that game is winnable. However, I think there will be a stumble somewhere along the way. I think that either K-State or A&M will fumble and we'll end the bowl season 7-1.

 

[djcubby]

Just looking at the match-ups, my first thought is 6-2. Not going to guess how it will all shake out, but I'm going with 6-2.

 

[CyCrazy]

Either 7-1 with Kstate losing or 6-2 with Kstate losing and A&M just mailing it in.

 

[cloneswereall]

are we still considering MU and TAM Big 12 teams? I'd rather count WVU and TCU.

 

[awd4cy]

The only losses I picked for the Big 12 in my bowl picks were Kansas State and Texas A&M. I just think A&M has given up on the season even though they have way more talent on their team than Northwestern.

 

[Palmer]

7-1

Arkansas over KSU.

 

[cyclonedave25]

I picked the Big 12 to win every game except KSU losing to Arkansas.

 

[acgclone]

I don't see any way that K-State hangs with Arkansas. I would have to say 6-2 or 5-3, as there is usually an upset along the way. We're roughly a toss up, but I think we get the W

+10000000

I COMPLETELY agree.

 

[IowaSTATCyclone]

I'm really hoping for 8-0. Saying the conference was perfect in the post-season lends weight to the argument that they got shafted out of the BCS. K-State shelling Arkansas (and finishing the job A&M should have taken care of in the first place) would really help the Big 12/SEC argument this year.

I can handle A&M choking against Northwestern, though, so I'm going to go with 7-1.

 

[CycloneErik]

Shouldn't we assume that A&M wins the first half, and dramatically collapses for the loss in the 2nd half?

 

[Wesley]

6-2.

KSU may pull a surprise like ISU.

aTm blows the fourth quarter and Texas become slugs.

 

[ajk4st8]

OU, Texas AM and KSU lose.. Hoping ISU can pull off an upset otherwise Im saying 4-4

You seriously have Oklahoma losing? I think they might not cover the spread, but there is almost no way they don't get the W.

 

[JUKEBOX]

KSU wins.
Texas loses.
Somebody else will lose.
6-2

 

[SplitIdentity]

My biasedness has 4-4 with OU, KSU, TAMU, and either ISU or Baylor losing. Baylor had a dismal bowl performance last year, and Washington got some revenge on Nebby, so anything can happen. It's my upset call. I really don't think ISU is going to lose, but you never know, Rutgers is pretty similar in strength right now IMO.

I hate to sound like one of those annoying Iowa Trolls, but that's what everyone thought last year when EIU lost their starting running back for the bowl game.

 

[VTXCyRyD]

8-0 count on it

 

[BigLame]

I was thinkin 10 - 0
Big XII - Woooo.

 

[isufan]

Anywhere from 6-2 to 8-0
