Last Real Big 12 Championship Game watch


ATXbronco

Recommended Posts

Correct me if I'm wrong.  For Texas to get into the championship game...
 

  • Bears and Cyclones need to lose one more conference game.  
  • Cowboys need to lose TWO more conference games.  
  • Longhorns needs to win-out all their remaining games.  


That's a lot to happen for us to get into the CCG.

Right now, the Sooners are the only undefeated conference team.  
But they have arguably the toughest remaining schedule.

Remaining conference games for each (in this order):

  • Longhorns = Bears, Cyclones, Jayhawks, Mountaineers, Wildcats
  • Cyclones = Mountaineers, Longhorns, Red Raiders, Sooners, Purple Frogs
  • Bears = Texas, Purple Frogs, Sooners, Wildcats, Red Raiders
  • Cowboys = Jayhawks, Mountaineers, Purple Frogs, Red Raiders, Sooners
  • Sooners = Red Raiders, Bears, Cyclones, Cowboys


I'm calling for the horns to win out.  🖕

The only 2 thing that actually matter are Texas wins out and OSU loses 2 more. 
 
I think it’s more likely OSU loses less then 2 games, than it is Texas wins out sadly

OkSt will lose Bedlam. It’s what they do. Only need one more after that.

From my understanding:

1) Win out (not super confident in this happening tbh)

 

2A) Hope OUsux or Okie Lit lose 3 games. (I have a better chance at dating Scarlett Johansson than this happening)

-or-

2B) Force a triangle at 2nd place with either OUsux or OkieLite. (this seems to be our best shot)
 

Iowa St beating OkieLite seems to be our best window at this point. If OUsux beats OkieLite & ISU than it will go to the next team. The problem is the next team will most likely be Baylor who beat ISU already. So we kinda need Tech to beat OkieLite and Baylor, forcing a h2h with ISU which would put us in

We made it with two conference losses in 2018. 

What would the tiebreaker stuff look like if Texas, OSU, and Iowa St all finish with two losses?

OSU gets in for sure, because they beat us.  That's why we need to wish upon two more losing stars for them.

Like 7 out of the last 10 years' similar questions at this time.

"What if every other big 12 team lost all of their remaining games and we won all of ours by 45 points every week!?!?!?!

I know OU was in a dogfight with mighty Kansas today. That being said, we just need to win out and OSU needs to lose one more because they’re not beating OU. 
 

it isn’t a stretch to say that they lose to WVU or TCU. 

Two. They need to lose two more. If they only one they have the head to head

Longhorn fans are probably the only fans in the country plotting their path to the conference championship after back to back conference losses. 

Bullshit. Figuring out weird ways your team makes it to the championship is basic fandom.

I mean- you could just say OSU needs to lose twice and we need to win out. Us winning out outs losses on Baylor and ISU so that’s redundant. 
And since OSU loses literally every game to the Sooners all it really boils down to is we need to win out and OSU needs to lose WVU, TCU or Tech.

This is uncharacteristic as we usually have this discussion in early November.

We always discuss the Rubik’s cube of 7 other teams and the exact shit they have to do for us to be in the championship conversation. 
 

It’s always a fun talk, then we end up fucking it up on something as little as making an extra point against a basketball school.
