Crucial non con schedule in Big XII in 2016

[outhereincali]

Every team except Baylor, (figures) has at least one big name opponent this year. After bowl season I honestly don't know how we will do. Here's a list of the opponents:

OK - tOSU
OK - Houston
TCU - Arkansas
OSU - Pitt
TT - AZSU
TX - ND
TX- CA
ISU - IA
KSU - ST
KS - Memphis
WV - MO

Right now I'm not feeling good about this lineup
OK - they play Houston first but the big key is Baker Mayfield's health. He had two concussions in 40 days. What if he has to give up fb? Not out of the question but it's early
KSU no
TCU they lose Boykin, Doctson, their best rb, and four of of five ol.
TT maybe if their WV game is any indication TT has a chance
WV yes
OSU after their last three games I say no way
ISU this is a rivalry game and the RB showed why IA had no business being in an NYS bowl
KS no
TX if Goff declares we can beat Cal
TX no but I always have hope

Goff will be the first qb taken in the draft and could go to the cowboys at 4 or the sorry butt browns that shouldn't even be a team could take him at 2.

No way Goff comes back.

I'm glad to see the Big 12 OOC slate looking better. Even if I' don't feel confident the conference teams will win em all, it's the kind of slate that they need to be playing (at least outside of Baylor and maybe Oklahoma State... I just feel a little mixed about having Pitt be the lone power-5 opponent on their slate... they definitely would work in our schedule for the "Cal" level team... but I suppose I'm nitpicking there) if the conference wants respect. I don't want to see a lot of losses, but if you play good teams, some losses are going to happen to any team/conference.
Will be rooting for the Big 12 team in all of these... though there are a few teams where seeing them lose would probably still be ok with me....

Goff already declared 5 days ago. Officially. He's gone.

So is the Memphis stud QB. That will be two top guys in the NFL draft for QB hungry teams to devour.

How cute. You are relegated to rooting for others to beat us. Since you can't.

And you gotta keep dreaming that we won't win titles. Because you can't moral victory explain those away. But you might retroactively put them up on your stadium wall and claim them as your own.

Obsession noted, lesser.

Other than the Mayfield concussion issue, OU in decent shape given the ridiculous number of Ohio State jrs leaving early; 8 at last count, may be nine. Barrett will be a load and OSU has plenty of depth but game in Norman and OU will be more experienced. Houston a real worry given their returning players.

I'd rather have a schedule that looks like this (ND, UTEP, @ Cal) and suck it up once in a while during a down period than go with a timid schedule like UCLA, Prairie View A&M, New Mexico State, and UTSA since the 3 guaranteed wins are a must to insure bowl eligibility in an average year for my team.

I hope we can beat Notre Dame, but if we can't, so be it. A school that believes it should be competing for championships should play a challenging slate, even if that means not winning them all. But hey, you guys only have to go .333 against power 5 level teams to be "rewarded" with a bowl. I'm sure we'll all be very impressed if it happens!

We just want to know what it feels like to be an aggsy. We want to feel like we are so good we can beat anyone on our schedule and then have it all come crashing down. You know, like you feel every year.

Are you aggsy excited about next year? Who is your new OC? Who is your QB? Who do you have playing linebacker? You have some good receivers, too bad they can't block, or throw.

I love watching aggsy grind their teeth.
