@bgr said: @Basebal21 What do you think of Morton (TT) and their chances if he can stay on the field. I pick a team somewhat randomly each year to follow - since you know.. Badgers and all, and this season it's been the Red Raiders. That o-line seems like the biggest weakness... but fun team to watch and Morton has a NFL arm (I think).
TT has been my Big 12 winner for a while. With Weeks injured at LSU Rodriguez at TT is probably the best LB in the country. TT has a few NFL draft able guys on defense that creates problems whether Morton is healthy or not.
I like them better with Morton healthy which hes not fully, but I dont think they need him to beat UCF or WVU. I would probably sit him this week but doesnt seem like theyre going too
Either way should both be wins. BYU still has to play Cincinnati and TCU which could get them in as the second team. TCU has Houston as well were its looking like TCU will determine who the second team is

. And if you think about it, a loss to Michigan would probably just mean an additional home game for the Buckeyes this season. I doubt all those southern teams want to come to frigid Ohio in late December to play football.
It actually makes sense that fans would root for Ohio State.
If the bowl games were played up north instead of in the south, The BIG TEN would have the best bowl record among any conference every year.
Some good games to watch this weekend as the regular season conference schedule closes in on Championship weekend and the final CFP Poll only a month away. In a strange twist "Selection Sunday" will be on Pearl Harbor Day.
--- Minnesota vs. Oregon/Wisconsin vs. Indiana/South Carolina vs. Texas A&M are all home games that should present no problems, but a miscue at this point against an un-ranked opponent could spell disaster.
--- Notre Dame vs. Pittsburgh. Are the Irish a contender or a pretender??
--- Iowa vs. USC. My upset special, I think the Trojans are goin' down!!
--- Oklahoma vs. Alabama. Probably the Sooners last gasp, but the 'Tide has shown they keep these games close.
--- Texas vs. Georgia. Lucky for the Bulldogs this is a home game, but Texas has been improving. Maybe a ranking switch.
--- UCLA vs. Ohio State. I'm glad this is a home game.

Texas vs Georgia is a huge game for Manning, he has a chance to get back on the hype train if he can throw a solid game in Georgia
