<\/h6>\n
The outcome of Oklahoma’s 62-52 score fest win\u00a0Saturday proved that\u00a0the\u00a0Big Red\u00a0live for another day and Baker Mayfield is the Heisman Trophy leader at this time.\u00a0 The other significant item is that the Sooners and Cowboys defenses\u00a0played one of the disgustingly awful\u00a0games in their history as both teams were bad as in cannot tackle, cannot cover the pass, and sure as hell\u00a0cannot play a whole game with fidelity.\u00a0This poor defensive performance could\u00a0drop the Sooners down from their number five spot in the Committee’s Final Four list to six\u00a0or seven, as Wisconsin and Miami, Fla. both remain undefeated.<\/h6>\n

    Games this week in the Big Twelve<\/span><\/h5>\n

     <\/p>\n

    Oklahoma host TCU and I\u00a0like the Sooners at home.\u00a0 OU’s defense is not good in any way and I do not see the Sooners run defense holding the Frogs down.\u00a0 OU will need to use Baker Mayfield and he is the key.\u00a0 Plus, if OU can force TCU’s Kenny Hill into mistakes the Sooners might keep the score down.\u00a0\u00a0OU 45 and\u00a0TCU 42\u00a0 (I would not be at all surprised to see TCU win this one)<\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    <\/h6>\n
    Oklahoma State will rebound in Ames with the Iowa State Cyclones.\u00a0 The Pokes will run on Iowa State and the score looks like Pokes 46 and Iowa State 38.<\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    .<\/p>\n

    Baylor will get another win as it hosts Texas Tech.\u00a0 Bears 31 and Red Raiders 30<\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    <\/h6>\n
    West Virginia should beat Kansas State in Manhattans.\u00a0 Mountaineers 27 and Wildcats 24<\/h6>\n

     <\/p>\n

    <\/h6>\n
    Texas hosts Kansas and the Horns extend the Jayhawks losing.\u00a0 Longhorns 47 and Kansas 10<\/h6>\n
