Big 12 "Conference Predictions Sure To Backfire" - Week 4

Each week the three of us will make predictions on all the league's conference games. We'll also be joined by a different SB Nation Big 12 blogger to weigh in with their thoughts. Check back throughout the week to see how much (or little?) we all know.

This week we're proud to have Owen Kemp from Kansas' Rock Chalk Talk

And post your predictions in the comments section. If we like your picks we might ask you to be a guest picker... so take your chance and put your thoughts out for everyone to read.

Wishing I could take back

my pick of Oklahoma State to beat Missouri. I picked Ok State to beat Texas and umm yeah not so much. Do feel somewhat better about my Texas Tech pick against Ok State though.

Wow!

Just noticed that I picked TT and OU both to win in the same week. I must be really tired or something. Oh well. I posted them and I’m sticking with them.

Heh...

Both of them have more wins than I expected at this point. And, as you point out, both are on 2 game winning streaks. So I’m not feeling to bad about my picks. But I never do until the games actually start.

I am opposite

I always feel bad about my picks immediately after I make them

Yeah, but everyone got Baylor over CU except me.

I thought I had it too when CU was up by 17, but they blew it in the 2nd half.

OK St. is not good at all on the road and Tech has been playing better lately.

NU has not been beaten in Lincoln all year but A&M is a more talented team so I saw it as a coin toss game. So I had a 50/50 shot.

I wasn't impressed with A&M at home vs KSU

so I thought Nebraska’s D combined with the Texas game looming for A&M made it a good matchup for Cornhuskers. Just took a shot on that Texas Tech game, not real impressed with Ok. State lately even though I foolishly picked them to beat Missouri at home later on, wish I could have that one back.

I went 9-4. Makes my season 37-12. I was ridiculously far off on the Texas vs. A&M game. Colorado could not hold on to a 17 point lead or I would have had that one.

Rolling with favorites this week

Saturday: Baylor, Iowa St, Kansas, Aggies, Tech, Longhorns

Next week: Texas, Colorado, Baylor, Kansas, K-State, Mizzou

National: Florida

You ain't hurt...
