Have you been watching Baylor since the big 12 started?  Not quite "good' either.

You were wise to pick the men of Troy. My heart said Buckeyes, but my head said "USC is going to embarrass us on national TV." I've seen that show before.

Seriously, if you're a top five team, shouldn't you have a good QB? There are mediocre Big XII teams with better QBs than Boeckeman.

Is there really any opponent you feel good about giving points to when you take Baylor?

yeah this prediction will be for fun since it's 48 hours away, it won't count for or against your total scores.  Mirage actually started their line at  +4...some were as low as +3 but have moved to KSU.

This is Freeman's chance to insert his name prominently in the Sports Center world.  Should be great exposure for the Wildcats.

I think KSU wins and covers tonight, too.

My track record to date is quite poor.
