It will be way more fun. It does seem likely that the final game will look pretty much like every other year. We'll see.

My knee jerk reaction to 2024 — the Big12 does not look very good this year.

Oklahoma barely beat Houston last week

Oklahoma looks down this year, but they raise the floor about 2 levels.

So it's not about good teams.....just name teams?

OU won the big 12 more than 50% of the time. a below average team by OU standards still wins the big 12.

So why did they leave just when winning the Big12 guarantees the playoffs?

this week will be more telling. close games against bad teams happen for every team every year.

Next week, you mean? This week has a weak slate of matchups.

Beat Tulane or not, they have a good chance of getting curb stomped this year.

OUs average SOS ranks 4th in the SEC over the last 10 and 25 years. last years ranks 4th as well.

Outside of Georgia and Texas, no one has really looked that good.

This season is going to come down to Georgia v Ohio State with Texas in the mix.

The difference between the old college format if you lost a game you were pretty much screwed but now you just need to
