I voted for OU, but OU and Texas are about even. I almost hope Texas runs the table just so we don't have to hear Mack Brown whine again this year.

It's a breath of fresh air when any conference big dog gets knocked off by a dog with seemingly less bite. Last year was wonderful. To see three teams in the same division of the Big 12 polling nationally in the top ten was wonderful. All ended the season with equal records. I'm sure that most would agree that Texas Tech has no business trying to compete with the likes of Ok. or UT. but if last year is any indication, don't count them out. There will undoubtedly be some surprises. That's why they play the game and that's why it's so compelling.

Just like all texas fans forget about losing to tech. The same team ou killed by 40+, count them, 40+ points. You whinny texas fans make me sick. The whole world is tired of your whinning. whaaannn whaaannn, were texas we should get speicial treatment ,the rules should change because it didn't go our way. Stop losing to crappy teams then maybe you'll be better then the 3rd best team in the league.

Texas always finds a way to lose it! Tech last year, probably OSU this year.

At least the south division is interesting ... the north will be another snoozer, I'm afraid. Hopefully the Tigers will find a replacement for Chase Daniels, but I don't want to see yet another unmerciful beating in the conference championship game. I'm from OU and my wife from Mizzou, so I've been cut off the past two off seasons!

Bo Pellini looks like he's got things going in the right direction again at Nebraska. They're like OU and Texas. Too much tradition to hold them down for long. I think it very well could be the Huskers in the B12 CG against OU or Texas. OSU is being touted as the Cinderella team this season but they won't get past the South's big 2.

You've got to be kidding! What a joke. It will only be possible if Stoops leaves and Mike comes back from Arizona.

Not with the young offensive line that OU has at them moment. I hate saying this but I respect OU football. I just believe that this is the longhorns year. I hated seeing Sam Bradford getting injured and I hope he comes back soon. I want to see a good game on Oct 17 and I want both teams to be healthy and ready to play. No excuses just good football. Them we will see who is the best in the south.
Go Horns

I think the big 2 as in OU and TU will have there hands full with this hungry OSU team. They rise to the occasion and have led then blow it several times, I think this year just might be our year.

That's why I picked the score to be so close with OU. The Cowboys scare me as much as Texas. It won't suprise me a bit if OU beats the Horns but lose to OSU.

"OU! Offensive line will come through!"
Just like 2005 - right? Never underestimate the offensive line. 2004 OU had a dominant offensive line and they graduated and poor Bomar - that was horrendus to watch in Dallas.

BIg game Bob does it again. I bet Bradford is soooo glad he came back. At least OU won't get to embarrass the Big12 again this year in a National Championship fiasco.
What were the final standings last year for OU and BIg Game Bob Stoops!

I am from Oklahoma and like Oklahoma, but Texas is showing more class than the sooners. And with BIG GAME BOB at the helm, things are certain to go downhill from here. Oh, for the sooner magic of switzer once more!

i am a big OU fan, last week i thought they could win the national championship this year.
but with the injury's i"m not shore. still can"t count them out, nor can you count OSU out!
just think with the schedules probably TX has the best chance.

OU will beat TX this year and will win the south division. The only thing I'm worried about is will they win a BCS bowl game!

Texas will win....... stoops can not win a big game to save his life. By the way if you want to see the worst fans in college go to Norman Oklahoma. Just one thanks to the sooner people. If not for all you buying the upside longhorn stuff we might not have been able to buy such a large stadium.lol
