[Hold on, it’s not over yet] PATHWAY TO DALLAS
- Thread starter cyclone4L
- Start date
Feel like our game against Oklahoma State is a bit of an early qualifier for the title game, more for us than OSU since they still have a lot left. If we go 4-0 to start with 2 wins over legit contenders that's about as good as we can ask for, and with only 1-2 teams left that legit bother me. Feels good
I think you have to hope to win one of KSU/OSU/UT and then take care of BU/KU/WVU
No because - THEY'RE OHIO STATE. TCU, Baylor, Ok State, Iowa State; hell yes they've getting left out.
Way to move the goal posts on your response.
The only thing we know for sure, is that our fans prematurely thinking we might make the CCG is critical to the team's performance.
That's what makes me feel good about all this. Most years the conversation is "Hey all we have to do is win our next 8 games and we might find our way into this with a little help!"
This year we just have to win the games we should and split the toss ups. Honestly, the last 6 games I feel good about all of them. I don't see us running the table, but tell me which team is for sure going to beat us? If we win Saturday, we're favored the rest of the way
The Cyclones could run the table in conference but because of the shortened season all the squawk trolls would be able to talk about would be ISU still not having a 10 win season. Kind of like losing to a team but claiming a moral victory because they did it with field goals and didn't score a TD...
That would require paying attention to Hawk trolls.
I mean, seriously. I have an idiot neighbor I tune out every word coming out of his mouth and nod politely. And as far as I know, nothing of it has anything to do with sports.
A good thing to know.
If the rest of my predictions hold up, we can afford to lose this weekend and still make the championship game. However, we would be playing OSU in the championship.
If we were to lose this weekend, the only single game that could knock us out of the championship is TEX winning the OSU-TEX matchup.
This weekend and next weekend will offer a lot of clarity to the Big 12

Hey, y'all. I've done this the past three years, and we're far enough into the season (and Iowa State's doing well enough!) that I think it makes sense running the scenarios again. Basically, this is 100,000 Monte Carlo simulations of the rest of the Big 12 football season in Python, using Ken...

Per Neal Brown regarding who Texas Tech has played ... "... And they played at Iowa State, who is also tied for first in our league. That’s one of the toughest places to play in the Big 12.” LOVE reading things like this.
An Iowa State win puts them clearly in the driver's seat. If it's oSu, then the picture remains muddled due to their backload schedule. This is the biggest game of the year but only if ISU wins it.

Personally, we’re still in the hunt. Our next big games are against Texas and KSU. With KSU losing their QB, I feel better about our chances that game, assuming we have a similar performance as we did against TCU, OU, and TTU.
As for this game, winning would have put us and KSU in the driver seat. Now that we lost, we still have a good shot, but we probably can only lose 1 game the rest of the season to make it to the champ game.
OSU still has to play a lot of teams in the top half of the league. We’ve played all but two of those (Texas and KSU).
