Big 12 showing out in bowl games

[The_Glove_Man]

OSU beats Miami
Oklahoma trounces Florida
Texas throttles Colorado

It's a messed up year, but B12 earning a little respect nevertheless?

Apparently they aren't worn down from the grueling 11 game COVID season. Not sure how that's physically possible.

Hard to give you OU that much credit when Florida wasn’t even close to their normal selves after scoring 46 on Gump in the SECCG..

Texas A&M and Oklahoma would have been the much better game but the Big 12 champ is suppose to go to the Sugar bowl unless the Sugar is a playoff game like this season so the Cotton bowl took the Big 12 champs..

The points in Vegas went from -3 OU to -9 OU at kick off time...

Vegas gave them excuses too..

Isn't the lines purpose to get equal action (or as close to it) on both sides? It doesn't suggest anything about who the people who set the line think are going to win, does it?

Dan Mullen's statement after the game is a slap in the face to every team in the country that couldn't play in a bowl game. He could have kept his team at home and let Army play OU if his position is that the game did not matter. But Dan Mullen hates the U.S. military and the United States of America.

At least Florida didn’t opt out as a team. Mullen also mentioned the positives to getting the young guys experience and using this season as a springboard for next year. Maybe why Mullen and Frost were both hired the same year and one is top 10 and the other is last in a big ten west. But go on

And I guess they didn’t care about spending time away from families during the holidays.

Would like to see Indiana or Iowa against Oklahoma. Would have been a much better game.

Mullen is more overrated, and a bigger douche, than Fleck. And that takes some doing...

To Iowa's credit, the only game that was in doubt late was against us. Otherwise they shredded the other bad teams they beat, and thrashed a decent Wisconsin team, which finished with a winning record, right, @HawkeyeinOmaha ?

That team that Florida fielded in the bowl would have been lucky to win 4 games. Thats not an excuse, thats reality.

 

[tpmcg]

weve been reduced to talking about teams that went to bowl games...opting out feels worse than b1g delaying season until late oct. i know this opinion is latent...

How is that Oklahoma's fault? Oklahoma was able to keep their team together. Florida wasn't, and they got thrashed as a result.
