Oklahoma’s trouncing of Texas and LSU’s winning recipe over Florida in the Swamp have proved without a doubt that these two teams will challenge Alabama, Clemson, and Ohio State for the Final Four later in the season. Penn State also remains in the conversation with their win at Iowa and Wisconsin will give both the Buckeyes and Nittnay Lions a run for the Big Ten title. Currently, I have these teams ranked like this with my current Top 25.

Big Twelve recap

 

OU was much the better team than Texas. Sooners have found a defense too.

 

Iowa State is finding themselves on offense and West Virginia lost it’s quarterback in the loss.

 

Baylor continues to stay unbeaten taking Texas Tech to double overtime before winning.

 

This week in the Big Twelve

 

Oklahoma begins the day in Norman with a Roster start with West Virginia. The Mountaineers will be blown out. West Virginia’s quarterback Austin Kendall is questionable as of Sunday. Sooners 59 and Mountaineers 20

 

Baylor continues to stay unbeaten in Stillwater as OSU continues to slide. Bears in a close one 30 to 27 over the Pokes.

 

Kansas State will get the better of TCU as the Frogs are not very good this year. Wildcats win 24 to 20.

 

Kansas visits DKR and the Texas Longhorns snap back with a 41 to 14 win.

 

In the Iowa State trip to Lubbock, the Cyclones will have a tough one but should come out the winner. I like the men from Ames 28 to 24.

 

Last week’s predictions: 3-0; Season: 36-8
