What was everyone's take away from the games this weekend? I got in an argument (with an SEC fan of course) that the BIG 12 showed how overrated it was this weekend. His reasoning was our losses were bad, and our top two teams shouldn't have won.

However I think 7-3 is solid and will do us some favors come selection Sunday. What people don't get is every single Big 12 team had to play, while four SEC teams played each other. Three of the four are three dead last SEC teams (Miss St, Mizzou, Alabama) with the other being an inflated 19-2 South Carolina. Going 3-7 with your bottom three teams not playing is pretty poor if you ask me.

Does anyone know who comes up with these matchups? I know its not based off of the previous years standings, but its obviously not random... Some matchups were very interesting regardless of the final score (KU vs. UK, OU @ LSU) other were incredible dull matchups (Cats, Baylor vs. UGA, TCU vs. Tenn)

Why not have Frank come back to Manhattan, or have Texas play A&M?

Side Note - Big thanks to Texas and OU for knocking off some fellow bubble teams.
