  1. Unless I'm reading those incorrectly, both show the Big 12 as the second strongest conference, right? Tied with the Pac-12 in Massey and alone in second in Sagarin. I don't consider SEC divisions to be distinct conferences. 

     

    Massey: SEC - 7.99

                   Big 12 & Pac 12 - 7.85

     

    Sagarin: Combined SEC average at 80ish 

    Big 12 at 78.2ish

    Too many people here are underestimating the possibility of Ohio State remaining ahead of UT in the rankings no matter what happens.  It’s certainly possible UT leapfrogs OSU with a win, but it is definitely not a certainty.  The 2023 version of The Big XII isn’t doing us any favors in terms of conference strength and while ranked, a win over Ok. State isn’t worth that much nationally (really needed that OU win).  Yes, Bama on the road is a feather in the cap, but it was early and college football has always had a decency bias.  Would’ve helped if UT had won more Big XII games more convincingly.  My gut is we needed (2), not (1) undefeated ahead of us in the rankings to get into the CFP.

    The 2023 version of The Big XII is the second strongest conference per Sagarin (and maybe Massey? -- someone posted the Massey info many pages ago I think).
