http://rivals.yahoo.com/missouri/foo...uiDpRj_i0Ys5B4 They signed one of the top 14 players in the state this year. Very impressive. As you said, the Big Ten already goes in there and takes what they want. So why add them again? Cable subs. That's it. No other reason. As you said the league was already getting the players they wanted w/o them in tow. I think they are a joke that will do absolutely nothing to enhance the Big Ten's already bad on field product. You are impressed b/c they signed a couple guys and have a 50k seat stadium. I guess we will have to agree to disagree.

OU had won 11 of the prior 13 meetings with ATM. Most of which were total blowouts. Manziel made the Aggies a very good team this year, but let's not pretend this is the "new normal". OU is still the superior program and it's not particularly close. |

They've got the top QB in the country, a top five recruiting class, and a popular coach. I'll predict that A&M wins more games the rest of this decade than any team in the Big 12.

Context. The point is the 4th best team in the league just blew out the Big XII cochamp. Doesn't matter who it is - as an aside aTm had been recruiting fairly well they just didn't have a coach that could make it happen on the field. And obviously they caught lightning in a bottle with JM but they already had a lot of other talent. In fact since since MU's CB win in 2007 a lower finishing SEC school has beat a higher finishing Big XII school each season along w/ most other leagues. Five years in a row is a trend. The point was made to illustrate what MU is up against in the SEC, not to argue which program is better between OU and aTm. If they hadn't risen from the ashes it would have someone else beating OU (Notice I didn't bother mentioning who it was, doesn't matter as far as to the point I was making). To your point no question OU is a better program than aTm but I was never getting into that.

A&M will likely have 2 top-10 picks in the draft this year, and neither are named Manziel.

I wasn't impressed by Florida, Georgia, or LSU frankly in their bowl games. Enough to just assume they'd have beaten OU.

Prisons lack of college football knowledge proves that he is a beaker fan.

Saul has gone full Clay Travis.
If Mizzou actually ever walked through one of these doors he's talking about instead of completely face-planting his head may very well explode. |

Fla and LSU mailing in their bowl games doesn't erase their body of work. As for GA they covered the spread, not sure what you want. Big XII was deep but weak at the top. Iowa State as your 9th best team is pretty good.

Rice Sam Houston State SMU Arkansas Ole Miss Auburn Vanderbilt Miss St. New Mexico Missouri Those are all horrendous games and A&M will destroy each one. Ole Miss may be interesting I suppose but who knows. Alabama and LSU are good games for the Aggies. |

You must understand: Miss State having a top-20 season, and Vandy's unbelievable ride to a Music City Bowl title are impressive football feats. KU winning 3 bowl games including the Orange Bowl in a 12-1 season? Not impressive at all. He's absolutely gone full Clay Travis with his mouth-breathing episodes. |

Still better than anything in their entire history practically. They had a good recruiting class too. In fact really good by their standards. Miss St sucked. They were one of the bigger frauds in the country if an 8 win team can be considered a fraud. They were on our level more or less, just dodged all the east heavies.

Those teams you list won 64 games last year. The bottom ten teams on Oklahoma's schedule won 66. It's not as if Oklahoma has a disadvantage on the schedule. Alabama and LSU are a pretty ****ing big step up from Notre Dame and KSU.
