Maybe someone already made this comment earlier but NO CIRCUMSTANCE can Baylor be in the scenario where we get all the teams we needed to LOSE and yet we LOSE to Kansas and miss out on the B12 Championship game. THIS CANNOT ABSOLUTELY HAPPEN.
With the early game, we won't have to worry about that scenario.

We'll know by 2:30 Saturday whether we still have a path and what it is. We'll be sitting in the clubhouse waiting for the leaders' scores to come in.

You people are ridiculously drunk thinking there's a chance we get in.

I don't think anyone actually expects us to get in. But until we're mathematically eliminated, there is a chance. And people will continue to talk about it until it's no longer a possibility.

If we had beaten Colorado - what might have been our scenario?

That would make our conference record 6-2 and tied with ASU, BYU, and ISU.

If all 4 of us won our games this weekend ISU and BYU would still owe tie breakers over us....but with a 4 way tie at the top the tiebreakers would not apply. I don't how the top 2 would be picked.

I'm guessing at minimum we would have needed BYU or ISU to lose this weekend.

Bless your tiny green-n-gold heart..........


What do you see as the issue here?

I don't think anyone in this forum sees this as anything more than a long shot...but after 3-9 last year can we not have some fun with this?

My main hope is beating KU to get to 8-4 and land a fun bowl matchup with a chance to get to 9 wins.
No, they prefer to ***** about Aranda. This is a nightmare scenario for many, they are invested in "really knowing", as opposed to us fans that don't know football. Aranda winning doesn't support that narrative.


Yep, I've been one who thinks CDA is not going to be long-term successful. But c'mon guys, how can anyone not be having fun this year? I still haven't changed my mind, but I hope CDA continues to win and prove me wrong. I'll happily admit to being wrong if he can continue building and winning. It's a fun turnabout for us. Enjoy it and see where it takes us.

Colorado whips OSU. Punt the idea of a championship game, accept the bowl we get, and roll in a fetal position because your hopes crushed.

If we can't get in I hope CU gets in and wins it not only because the Big 12 will get more pub if they do but also because they have the best shot of any Big 12 team of winning a playoff game.

CU gets to the championship only if 2 of 3 of BYU/AzSt/IowaSt lose.

Even without the Pokes' collapse (is anyone really surprised??), this was always a long shot. It was a nice thought but it's more realistic to think we can do it next year.

Pretty wild that it is almost 7 PM on the last day of the season and this race is still so confusing

What a remarkable season for ASU. No one had them on the radar to compete for a title this year.

ISU is up 10 right now. They just blocked a short KSU FG.

Looks like if ISU wins then BYU is out and it will either be CU or ISU.

One of the exciting characteristics of the new Big 12 is parity. Preseason rankings are meaningless, especially here, and you never really know who will win a game or end up playing for a title.

Yes, 16 teams without divisions is ridiculous.

One thing to know the odds are long, another to be jubilant when they don't come in.

One is a fan, the other is either an opposing fan or an ******* you don't want in your foxhole...

Watching this KSU/ISU game...we've got some really good teams in this conference. We may not have elite teams but we've got 4 or 5 really good and tough teams.
