Why we should fear Oklahoma State from someone who has followed them.

BlueFever

OSU is not good this year. this is one of the worst teams gundy has had.

FieroCoug

3:06pm

With that many returning players, they shouldn't need many games to get going.

Cthack1

3:06pm

Add to that why is a Doak Walker winner and he "entire" OL averaging 3.8 a carry

Kajdin

3:15pm

The "returned" that many starters. But as long as they are missing their star

BGRTHNUMEGO

3:09pm

Sounds like a lot of the fear is from what they have done in the past

Beggar

3:10pm

K-State finished 9-4 last year. They are better this year. BYU won 38-9...

leanmeanCoug

3:10pm

OSU had one of the worst rush defenses in the conference last year and they are worse this year than last year...

Coug

3:10pm

They give up over 5 yards a carry. Bad would be an improvement.

Kajdin

3:25pm

Their rush defense is horrific giving up over 6 yds per attempt in conference

Would it be crazy to sign up for Google Fiber just to get it installed?

HuskerFan2 Known to cause cancer in CA

2:49pm

Why? Will they not install it later when you want it?

Mikey

2:50pm

Great question.

HuskerFan2

2:54pm

YMMV but I think it depends on where they route the service when they're doing

NarfUte

What are you gaining by doing this?

robin

Assurance that I can activate Google Fiber service in the future.

HuskerFan2

No. They came to my old neighborhood ~10 years ago and I didn't install

That is my concern as well.

GF is $70/month. Your ISP is charging $35/mo for 1Gb speeds?

My current service is not 1Gbps, but I've never run out of bandwidth either.

People have to pay for fiber install?

Baron

Per the website, if you don't sign up for a year they may have an installation charge of up to $300.

HuskerFan2

Why not sign up for a year to get free install then evaluate things after a year

We got free install with 2 Google Home wifi routers thrown in for $70/month. Totally worth it.

Skeptical Optimist

It's tough to say how bad they are, too. Obviously they're struggling at QB, but CU & Cincy are both looking tough.

SinkingQuffa

2:38pm

I don't think they're "bad". Similar to Oklahoma St. Talent is there.

Lifer

2:39pm

These programs play for a pride & urgency we're not used to seeing. It's not primarily about beating BYU; it's about

Yes, if KState beats Iowa State and they both only have 1 loss it gets

Huge Manatee

2:24pm

We'd get the tie-breaker over KState in that case. Iowa beating KState — & then one of several 1-loss guys

SinkingQuffa

2:29pm

Does that tiebreaker still hold if you have different teams beating each other?

Huge Manatee

2:32pm

If we end up w the same 1-loss record, I think it is that simple.

SinkingQuffa

2:33pm

Then again, if there's another 1-loss team AND a perfect Iowa St squad — maybe it isn't that simple.

SinkingQuffa

2:35pm

I think when considering 3 teams, all teams have to have played each other

Huge Manatee

2:37pm

You would have to look at the multi-team tiebreaker process with three 8-1 teams

Doogal McCougar

2:38pm

You have to look at record against common opponents

Let's say BYU loses to UCF, and BYU, K State, and Iowa State all

If the next highest is a group of 7-2 or 6-3 teams, you look at the record v.
