If that holds true the only thing OU is playing for on Saturday is a CC and a Sugar Bowl bid.

I just don't see it. Winning one game should not vault you ahead of someone you have been trailing the last several weeks and by 4 spots. That one win does not erase the 29 point loss to a 6-6 Purdue Team that lost to Eastern Michigan! And didn't tOSU just give up 51 to Maryland who only got 3 against PSU? Their defense isn't wordly either. If winning close games (ala OU) makes you drop, then ND shouldn't be in the Top 4 either.

I guess we're all Northwestern fans this weekend.

I agree. I dont believe you can just ignore that loss and say its forgotten because of beating Michigan. If they had loss like we did against Texas then I could understand it. If this holds true then OU is in a uphill battle but it could also serve as motivation for this team this weekend. To know that they get passed by for a team that was 4 behind them should really piss them off. ( yes Im talking mainly to the defense).

We will see tonight the actual results though but as I said Palm is usually correct.

I just don't see Ohio State passing us if we both win out. Our schedule is better and our loss isn't nearly as bad as theirs. Beating TX would also be a much better win than Northwestern. What we might want to worry the most about is Georgia beating Alabama. Then is would most likely be bama, georgia, ND, and Clemson.

You also have to remember that all of these playoff predictor percentages actually would have the odds of tOSU making the playoffs better than OU as it is more likely to see OU losing to UT and UGA losing to Bama, thus letting tOSU in the 4th spot. It is all odds based in looking forward and predicting. It is not likely tOSU loses to NW, thus they are factored to have a higher percentage of winning their game than OU does against UT. If both Teams win and UGA loses, then OU should get the nod.

I totally agree. Ohio state has a much easier path

I admit I was shocked by the result tonight but now it up to OU and I think they really still need to win big.

Rosey Palm is completely fake news. He must have some kind of Ohio State man love for Urban.

Palm was incorrect save it for basketball please.
Though I do love the narrative that ESPN is spinning that tosu is closing the gap on OU as seen by the rankings. Seriously they beat Michigan, and LSU and WSU both loss. UCF won but they lost their qb, so you knew tosu would jump 3 spots.

We need to torch texass on Saturday. Burn the UT village to the ground. Riley needs to scheme these boys back to the outhouse. Kyler should run crazy on them. 45-21 sounds good to me. Our D has to make giant steps upward and contain them. This is the question: How good can our D be?

His original one had Oh St. He edited it after the reveal. At the time I posted it yesterday afternoon it did show Oh St where he now has OU.
