More rumblings of upsets last week from the Big 12, and the picture gets clearer in the South Division, and a little cloudier in the North. Iowa State pulled off a shocker in College Station last week pounding Texas AM 42-14. Texas continues to roll, but were tested early before blowing out Oklahoma State, and they have an easy week this week with Baylor. Nebraska dropped 2 straight losing to Oklahoma in Lincoln, somewhat of a surprise actually, but turning it over 3 times, one for a TD will do you in versus an Oklahoma team who was impressive with what they had to work with, and on the upside of improvement, they had better players than Nebraska, I should know, since I was at the game!
Texas is swapping spots weekly in BCS rankings, and with Texas AM up and down this year, that date in College Station between Texas and Texas AM does not loom as large as it once was. Colorado with a squeaker win at K State last week still has a hold on the Big 12 North division, and they should be able to muster another win this week against Missouri, who lost to their border rival last week and may struggle in Boulder. Here are some takes on this weeks action:
Texas -28 @ Baylor
The Longhorns are dismantling teams each week, and blowing out opponents is a large way, as their defense has stepped up and QB Young is going wild, and Baylor lies in their path this week. The Bears have dropped 3 straight after a 4-1 start and stand little chance here of covering the number, and they got shut out last week by Texas Tech in a 28-0 loss. Look for Texas to have 40+ here, and Baylor to muster maybe 7-10 points, no back door cover that I can see, Texas way to quick up front for Baylor's spread attack. Texas rolls again, builds up those BCS points.
Nebraska -1.5 @ Kansas
Staying off the Huskers because they have cost me the past 2 weeks, but this should be the week they win, as KU simply has NO offense to speak of, and Nebraska should be able to throw in this game and put up 17-20 points while I see KU, off an upset and emotional win against Missouri, struggling in this game. Nebraska is off back to back conference losses and look to step it up against a Kansas team with a great defense, but no offense. NU shooting themselves in the foot with bad coaching calls and turnovers, they should get over on KU this week, with over 20,000 Husker fans making the trip. Nebraska by 7.
Iowa State vs. Kansas State- My featured Play of the Week.....
Texas Tech -17 vs. Texas AM
Yes, the Red Raiders are world beaters in Lubbock, but this is TOO MANY POINTS. This line reflects AM losing badly last week to Iowa State, they had a bad game, but I expect QB Reggie McNeal to show up and have room to roam in this game and for Texas Tech to struggle against a good opponent. The Red Raiders got hammered by Texas at home, struggled against a so/so Nebraska team in last second win, and other than that Tech has not played anyone of substance. Expect a tight one here, I like the dog to cover, and keep it close. Should be high scoring game, but the total of 70 may be about right. The dog barks in this one.
Those are my takes for week 10 in the Big 12, and results this week, especially in the north division, will lay out what is on the horizon for the Big 12 Championship at season's end. Crucial Games for Iowa State and Missouri and Colorado, as well as Nebraska this week will tell us more for next weeks report.
