      So I personally think the race to Dallas will come down to KU, K-State, OSU and us. With how easy of a schedule ksu has and OSU having us at home I feel that our game at ucf and at Colorado become absolutely must wins, especially if we drop Oklahoma state. I chose those two games in November as especially must wins because I simply do not see us losing at home. Period. ASU sucks this year so no way we lose their and Houston is still building. Colorado and ucf nationally have been picked here and there to upset us. I think with how ksu and osu’s schedules set up, if Oklahoma state beats us, they will probably just lose to ksu the rest of the way and with the winner of the ku-ksu just suffering one loss outside of their rivalry game it’s hard to see us getting to Dallas with a second loss. I personally don’t see us losing to Colorado but I can definitely see us losing on the road against a good oline and rb and against their good linebackers. I know ucf doesn’t have a great d but on a short week and traveling all the way to Florida, that can be a bit scary. We could lose that game and I see it as a 50-50 one for us.
      My red goggles say we go 11-1 with either the loss coming to OSU or ucf but I would bet money given the ability to on us going 10-2.

      If we do go 10-2 the Kansas teams and Oklahoma state need (in my opinion) to drop enough games for us to get to Dallas.

      One week from today! Go Utes!!!

      Your reasoning is exactly why we +300 long shots to win the Big 12z There are so many things that can happen that can keep us out. I’ve seen in some places the odds to make the championship game is only like 45%
