Big 12 Complete Breakdown

[jakerz]

Just spent around an hour or so coming up with a complete Big 12 breakdown (http://big12talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=24). I have Nebraska winning the North at 7-1 in conference. Texas winning the South going undefeated in conference and out of conference schedule as well. Take a look (http://big12talk.com/viewtopic.php?t=24) and tell me what you think!

Mizzou.. 6-6 w/ losses to Illinois and Ole Miss??

Illinois returns 16.. from a 2-win team, last year. Their QB (with a sweet name) Juice Williams completed less than 40% of his passes. Now, Zook and staff says it was really around 60%, due to drops and throwaways. I don't know which is worse, a QB who really throws less than 40% or a team that has non-effective returning WR's (who can't catch) and an O-line (that allowed tons of pressure or sacks). True-freshman, WR-A. Benn is already touted as the go-to guy and the Fighting Illini returns 9 on defense. LB-Leman is a hoss. When they meet the Tigers, they'll face 9 starters returning for Mizzou, including excellent RB-Temple, Heisman hopeful-QB-Chase Daniel, dynamic WR-FranklinAll-Amercan Candidates-TE's Martin Rucker and Chase Coffman and 4 of the 5 starting o-linemen. That's a very potent offense. Personally, I see a 45-21 victory, for Missouri.

Ole Miss?? Their returning starting SENIOR QB threw 10 INT's and 9 TD's, last year. From what I hear, a walk-on QB, in Seth Adams, may be starting the opening game. The defense will start 2 returners (4), from last year. They are a sophmore (8)/junior (9) heavy team and won only 4 games, last year. I like their future, more than their present. When Jevan Snead takes over they may be a contender... in 2007, they'll be lucky to win 4 games.

As far as starters are concerned...
Also, both, Ole Miss and Illinois will be facing 10 Seniors, 9 Juniors and just 3 Sophmores in the Mizzou Tigers.

if i'm not mistaken, you have oklahoma and texas tech playing each other...and both of them winning.

My bad. Mark that down as a L in Techs schedule.

I would love to see the Longhorns go undefeated and play for another National Championship! :D

That team is going to be quite a bit better than anybody is predicting.

I like how you think outside the box, but you need to clean up your game predictions. You have quite a few game result conflicts.

It's not a bad idea to sometimes do that!:D

Tech beats OU in Lubbock. Mark it down.

I'll live with 11-1 as long as they lose to Tech.

while it's not entirely out of the question and we all have our own opinions....i just don't see ou losing that game.

This Tech team will be better than 2005.

[jakerz]

This Tech team will be better than 2005.

Agreed. And, sorry about the predictions, it was a long night...3:00 AM...etc.

I really think Harrell will have an amazing year this year and will finally do something to get the critics off of his shoulders. Hopefully Leech gives him a chance throughout the whole season if he struggles out of the gates. After seeing what he did and what he's capable of in high school, I can't get it in my mind that he's not gonna be good.

[ThEgReAtOnE]

Mizzou will be better than 6-6

I absolutely agree.

I had a few gems in this thread. I'm still looking for where I picked records. I know I did, but I'm not sure if everybody did.
