That dude must really love football and the Big12. Helluva list right there.
Ranked the Iowa State/Texas game above the Oklahoma/Texas game in The Oklahoman?
He must have gotten destroyed in the comments by the locals!

4 ISU games in the top 10. I know it has been stated multiple times in the recent past, but my goodness how far we've come.
Berry's been around a long time and one of the best writers left in the Big 12. OU fans probably did flip out, but Berry evidently likes what he sees in Ames.

I can see this from the eyes of an OU honk. OU making the championship is a given, so the ISU v UT game is the most interesting as it will determine their opponent.
Wow, four ISU games in the top 10. You can tell by his list he doesn't cave to homerism. Yeah, 7 of the 16 include OU, but Sooners are picked to win the league, so it makes sense. Mildly surprised CyHawk game got that high of a rank.
Interesting tidbit from his summaries: UT and TCU are 6-6 dating to 1991. That goes all the way back to SWC's existence.

Anyone else nervous/miss being an underdog of sorts?
I'm ready to embrace it. Uncharted territory, but if we want to rise another level, that's the trade-off. Won't be any "sneaking up" on anyone this season.
According to the oddsmakers, we could certainly “sneak up” on OU in Norman this year—when they’re giving us (iirc) about a 17% chance. Or was that ESPN’s analytics?
I mean... with objective glasses, I would put the Oklahoma/Texas game as number 1.
At the top of the article it has another link to an article labeled "An OU-Texas Title Game Makes the October Game Slightly Less Important." That is probably why he has the ISU-Texas game as #1
Obviously a ways down the list, but thought the description was appropriate:
55. Kansas at Iowa State, Nov. 23: Remember when this was always for last place in the Big 12? Seems like a long time ago.
