Around SBN: Jeremy Lin's Game-Winner Was Incredible, Worth Remembering

Question of the Day

Since it's been a pretty quiet day here at RMN, I want to pose to everyone a question that I've been pondering all week. 

There's no need to hype the matchup between No. 7 Oklahoma State and No. 1 Texas. But outside of maybe OU, no other fan base has the conflict of interest in this game that Missouri does after the last two weeks.


Next Game

Oklahoma St. Cowboys
@ Texas Longhorns

Saturday, Oct 25, 2008, 2:30 PM CDT
Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium

Complete Coverage >

It's a matchup of the team that snuck up and bit Mizzou at home versus the team that flat out prison-raped Mizzou in Austin. So, which shade of orange will you be pulling for on Saturday? What result ends up looking best for Mizzou?

Oklahoma State

Because I’d much rather face them in the Big 12 title game than Texas.

Oklahoma State...

…because I always root for OSU when they’re not playing MU.

And I’d much rather face them in the Big 12 title game than Texas.

If Oklahoma St. wins

and then all three, Texas, OU, and OSU, all win out in the South, you guys will be meeting Oklahoma in the Big 12 title game.

With that said, I hope Oklahoma St wins.

Your example is a little flawed

OU and OSU can’t both win out since they play each other on November 29th. But I think what you were trying to say is that if OSU wins over Texas, wins all the rest of their games until they play OU (and then loses to the Sooners), then I believe you are correct in that we’d play OU in KC (assuming they don’t slip up between now and Nov. 29th).

Yep

Fingers got going a little to fast there. The three way tie would go to BCS standings and by then if OSU was still unbeaten and OU had still only the one loss, it would be similar to last year when KU and MU played.

Of those three, OU, OSU, and Texas, which would you guys rather face?

from big12sports.com

Divisional Champion: The (eligible) team with the best winning-percentage of all divisional members in its eight conference games is declared the divisional champion and representative to the Dr Pepper Big 12 Conference Football Championship Game. A team ineligible under NCAA or Big 12 rules for postseason (bowl) competition shall not compete in the Championship Game.

Divisional Tiebreakers: The following procedure will determine the representative from each division in the event of a tie:

a. If two teams are tied, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative
b. If three or more teams are tied, steps 1 through 7 will be followed until a determination is made. If only two teams remain tied after any step, the winner of the game between the two tied teams shall be the representative.
 

    1. The records of the three teams will be compared against each other
    2. The records of the three teams will be compared within their division
    3. The records of the three teams will be compared against the next highest placed teams in their division in order of fi nish (4, 5 and 6)
    4. The records of the three teams will be compared against all common conference opponents;
    5. The highest ranked team in the fi rst Bowl Championship Series Poll following the completion of Big 12 regular season conference play shall be the representative
    6. The team with the best overall winning percentage [excluding exempted games] shall be the representative
   7. The representative will be chosen by draw.
 

If you not having fun....then your not playing the game right.

oklahoma state

they are my second favorite big 12 team and my granddad got his phd there. i don’t really care who we play in the championship game. i’m just hoping to get there at this point. we’ll have to play a really good team whoever it is.

Okie State

I think we could actually beat them if we played again

Your 2008 Missouri Tigers! #15 5-2 (1-2). Next up CU. Jeremy Maclin can still win the Heisman.
