Power ratings week 10 ...

[surly]

Gawd, I'm ready for hoops ...

1. OU - in spite of an offensive defense
2. ISU - started too late
3. WVU - still my favorite to win the regular season
4. UT - it gets blurry right here
5. TxT - oh if KK could just defend the way he offends
6. BU - nice middling win
7. oSu - poked in the eye
8. TCU - not good
9. K-State - worse
10. Ku - bratwurst

Ku-KSU is going to be a fun battle for last place. I think it’s a toss up.

 

[HFCS]

I couldn't put ISU above WVU because we beat them at home and are sitting a 2 losses...although they haven't played OU yet which could potentially make our case if ISU keeps winning.

WVU Anti Field Rushers have to be above Texas now though getting them on the road.

What would it take for ISU to be in the B12 championship game if we win out?
WVU lose to OU
UT lose to us of course
Is that it? Are we going to be honorary sooner fans during that game?

That’s it. We win out and WV drops one. Texas and everyone else would have 3+ conference losses and we’d hold the tie-breaker over WV.

If OSU knocks off either OU or WVU over the next two weeks, then the game in Morgantown decides who plays us in the championship. We should be Cowboy fans.

I honestly think WVU runs the table the rest of the way. Beating Texas on the road was huge for them. Don’t trust this OU team in Morgantown.

You might not have noticed this, but we didn’t just “beat them at home”, we totally dominated them. I don’t have any problem with putting ISU above WVU.

How’d “beating them at home” work out for Texas, by the way? And OU won’t have that help.

I was right there with you but looked at the series history. OU has never lost to WVU. Ever. And by and large, even in Morgantown when WVU has a great team OU wins pretty handily.

I coulda sworn OU has lost there. I just worry that if WVU gets a couple of stops that might be the difference in the game.

According to ESPN’s power ranking article we control our own destiny:

Now they might be wrong (it is ESPN, after all), but it’s nice that for once ESPN would be wrong in a favorable fashion towards ISU.

 

[heitclone]

Hasn't it been like 3 years since OU lost a road game? Crazy so many are certain they won't win in M'town. WV is good but they are a one trick pony, I like OU's run game to be the difference.

Not quite. If ISU wins out, OU and WVU win out til the last week and then WVU beats OU, WVU and OU go to the title game with OU holding the tie breaker over us. Still a hell of a good spot to be in

Not true, that would be a three way tie with each being 1-1 against the others. I believe it would move to record against the 4th place team/teams, then.

Who would be in the 3 way tie? Texas would have 3 losses, ISU and Oklahoma each 2

OU and WVU are both 5-1. ISU wins out and we’re 7-2. OU and WVU play each other week 12 so they win out to that point and they’re both 7-1. Winner of that game is 8-1 loser is 7-2 and it comes down to tie breaker with ISU

WVU would be first place with 1 loss and OU and ISU tied for 2nd with 2. Ou wins tiebreaker. We need WVU to lose one more.

we needed TX to beat WVU yesterday
