Big 12 thread

Yeah, I know. The article is full of crap but who among us doesn't think @Thiefery will enjoy getting a blue steel throbber when he reads this?

Five reasons Texas will dethrone Oklahoma this season

What is it will all these players from Texas?
It's a big adjustment coming from the average Texas high school into a highly competitive scholastic environment at an elite University where the student-athletes are required to spend so much time striving to excel in things like physics labs, higher math studies and doing charity work for the less advantaged.
 
Week 1 Big 12 Lines:

Stanford vs. Kansas State (+1.5)
Oklahoma (-22.5) at Tulane
West Virginia (-3.5) at Maryland
Louisiana at Texas (-10.5)
Texas Tech (-2.5) at Houston
Baylor (-13.5) at Texas State

these lines will get smaller as the weeks go by. Think the ULL vs UT game was like 14.5 when it first came out
 
question for you landthieves... why isn't rattler going to the Big12 media days this week? He probably goes to the NFL after this season.. kinda strange that he doesn't go.

Maybe I'm just getting leery of the whole sports world but from now on I'll be skeptical of anything we're getting told about these student/semi-pro athletes when they do something that appears not to be team focused. Probably some prima donna reason that will be spun as "unavoidable and he really wishes he could have made it". Oh well, as long as it's not a court date..................

I think we are all going to have to be leery. Keeping the locker room good has always been critical. It now be more critical than ever with the possibility of "goodies" being less equitable than ever.

Just like when Bob Stoops stepped down...had to be some bad stuff had happened right? I 'member.

There is an oh-so-remote chance that he didn't want to be a distraction and preferred teammates to get the chance to improve THEIR NIL potential. He needs no press tour for awards, those are coming and we all know it. He needs no more exposure, he will get plenty.

"oH sOmEtHiNg iS uP yO!!!"

lol distraction? He's supposed to be the face of the conference and be a heisman favorite this season. Instead we have Max Fn Duggan as the best QB who will attend the media days lol

no it's not that i'm owed anything, just feels odd. You would think a heisman favorite would kick off the campaign there. Don't matter tho, he'll pull this stunt again in October when he no shows vs TEXAS #HookEm
