favorable schedule for the t-sips, helps when you run the conference
Oklahoma St opens with Savannah St.
Kyle what’s so favorable. We all play each other you idiot. If you wanna talk football at least be a fan of the sport
WEST VIRGINIA IS GOING TO OWN THIS CONFERENCE!!! CANT WAIT!!!
R u serious west Virginia will not own the big 12 it will be Oklahoma again. Then k state. West Virginia will finish at best 4-5 th place
alls west virginia has to do is show up and the big twelve will fall to their knees. NOT
did you hear the one about the redneck and west v ????
WV is in for a shock!
No ou will own this like they have been doing
the big 12 is gunna be jumbled this year in who has THE team. texas has a very young team who did very good last year, oklahoma is always good, oklahoma state is hurting without weeden, tcu is looking rough, iowa state will be decent, kansas state will be good with their defense, kansas should definitely be better tham last year (hopefully), wvu will struggle with defense and losing the o-line will hurt, texas tech will be better, and baylor will be good if they find someone to replace rg3
i give it to either texas or ou
Hey wvballer you think west verginia is going to take over yeah right Texas longhorns are wvu sucks so does ou !!!!!!!!
Texas wins this year… they’ve got a great young team
West Virgina offense will be tough…Oklahoma and texas better pay attention–WVU is much Faster!
OU has the best chance to win the conference. But we need to keep our eye out on WVU and Texas. I just got done watching hours of WVU footage and they make me sweat a little.
Born and raised in WV and have followed their football ups and downs. Give them a chance and stay positive. We do have a candidate for the big H trophy. Go Smith!!!!!
