As always, these are predictive.
1) West Virginia- For the first time this season, the Mountaineers lead the rankings. I fear they’ll end up splitting the season series and Big 12 title with Oklahoma. But their defense is a good deal more reliable than Oklahoma’s.
2) Oklahoma- Kyler Murray is almost assured a spot in New York for the Heisman; their offense is better than West Virginia’s, but I don’t trust their defense to get them into the playoff right now.
3) Texas- The second half against Kansas State wasn’t inspiring.
