The magic number to win the big 12 3 loses?

The magic number to win the big 12 ....3 losses?

I'm thought earlier this the magic number would be three and I still feel that way . I know the two top teams already have one loss apiece but both were on the road at arguably the top 3 teams in the conference .

I assume ou will drop one at Morgantown or Ames , and probably one more road game we don't expect ( Texas, Baylor , Ksu)

In think to assure ourselves at least a tie for the conference , we need all wins at home and no more then two more on the road .

Agree /disagree??? Is 4 losses the magic number ?

The last three years, 13-5, 14-4, and 14-4 won it. I don't see this year being much different. I think 14-4 wins it this year.

I hope you are right . The bigger the number the better for OU . We don't have a good road win yet .

OU is going to win it with one loss.

You're a straight shooter with upper management written all over yourself. I like your style

 

[inoref]

I think three loss will win it

I wouldn't say I have been missing it.

Three or four losses sounds about right, I'd say. Gotta love my in-depth analysis... Lol

15-3 probably wins it out right, 14-4 might, 13-5 and there is most likely a tie breaker scenario

Agree totally. To get to 15-3, there can NO hiccups like losing to a bottom tier team on the road. IMO, I believe 14-4 gets at least a share of the title this year.

Going to be extremely difficult to finish with only 3 losses. Hope our guys are up for the challenge. I agree also 4 will be enough, Kansas isn't near as good this year.

Question... What record in conference will win the B12 AND get you a #1 seed?

no more than 4 losses would be my guess. have to win the conference and the conference tourney

The Big 12 is rated as the best conference by most valid computer rankings. Whoever wins the regular season will be a #1 seed regardless of what happens in the Big 12 tournament. If for some strange reason the Big were not to get a #1 (I don't see that happening), they would get two #2s, a #3 and probably a #4/5......the conference is that good this year. I also believe that the Big 12 will get a team into the tournament with an 8-10 conference record.
