    I'm sitting here at work in Dallas and you'd think that the OU/TX game tomorrow was the national championship.

    This will be the first, and only, quality opponent either team has scheduled. Texas beat a weak rebuilding Arkansas team and OU hasn't beaten absolutely no one.

    These Big 12 people actually think there conference is better than the SEC. :lol: I try to reason with them but they honestly believe that in their heart. I guess I have to give them some credit for there spirit unlike SMU fans that just bad mouth their school and never even attend the games.

    I live in IL. and all I hear about is how good Mizzou is. Mizzou as not played a quality opponent either. And they do think that the little 12 is better than the SEC. It makes me so mad so I am going to Mizzou vs OSU game this weekend in hope to see them lose LOL. :geaux:

    Pharpe, I think the Big 12 is the most legit out of all the other conferences outside of the SEC. I also don't think that it's too farfetched for there to be "excitement" over the game--it's a big deal. And, yes, mainly because neither has really been tested. Is it, or should it, be more important than LSU-UF? If Florida was undefeated, it'd be gameday But Florida blew it against Ole Miss. At least OU or UT have the argument that they haven't blown it against similar opponents--no offense to Ole Miss. Nutt has them playing well.

    Has the Big-12 learned to play defense yet?

    I heard on the radio that they had one team in the top 50 overall defenses at the end of last season.
