I know Texas Tech can be explosive, but after that 1st quarter (and beginning of the 2nd) this has the feel of a blowout.

So, if Oklahoma wins and then TT and Texas win out afterwards, who is the B12 South rep?

Demarco Murray is very close to being back to the same level that he was before he broke his kneecap against Texas Tech last year.

They got rid of that rule, I believe. They got rid of all the bowl selection rules. Now the only thing that matters is that if the Big East has 6 teams with 7 wins, and ND only has 6 wins, all the Big East bowl slots will be filled before ND can be selected.

Might as well start looking ahead now, if Oklahoma beats Oklahoma St. will they be ranked above Texas in the BCS rankings?

Is the espn.com ticker right, Oregon State just missed the PAT that would have tied Arizona with under 4 mins to play?

Every running play has the Oklahoma lineman pushing TT back 10 yards. Complete domination.

Hey Texas Tech, it's a little bit different playing against Sam Bradford this year that it was against Joey Halzle last year, isn't it?

Embarassing performance by Texas Tech with a National title berth so close. Also, pathetic performance by the Minnesota Gophers who are getting destroyed by Iowa at home, 55-0. There's a team that doesn't deserve to go to a bowl despite having 7 wins, all against trash opponents. Hopefully the Hawkeyes get into a New Years Day Bowl because they deserve it.

Would have been nice if the refs, ya know...called that? The fans did it twice. Talk about packing it in. Texas Tech got a few flags for doing that against Texas, but I guess the refs figured this one had been long over so they didn't bother. 99% chance of Pitt not scoring anyways, but still a crappy ending to an otherwise crappy game.

The Big Ten is painfully bad this year when you start to think about it. MSU stands as the 3rd best team in the Big Ten and they got beat 94-25 against the top two teams in the conference. For Minnesota, the NW loss seemed to take something out of them, and after the Michigan loss, it was a mere free fall.

So, it is looking like it will be Cincy vs the ACC champ in the Orange and a rematch of PSU-OSU in the Rose. Probably not the matchups that the TV guys want.

USC will likely matchup with a very good B12 or SEC team, so that should be one solid matchup, with Utah or Boise State playing against the other.

Might be an ugly postseason overall.
