So who do we root for in the Big 12 Championship game?

LSU losing has really put us in a difficult position. Who do we root for in the Big 12 Championship game?

Do we root for Missouri knowing that their win will:
A - put them in the NC game - WV and Mizzou in the Who the Heck Cares NC game
B - REALLY screw over the BCS and leave many people bitching and whining and complaining about the system (which is a worthy goal in itself to eventually get a playoff system)
C - possibly give Chase Daniels a great game and give the Heisman voters an excuse not to vote for Tim Tebow

or do we root for OU knowing that and OU victory would probably allow Ohio State to weasel their way into the NC game?

I think we have to root for OU, given the Stoops connection and the fact that it would help Tim win the Heisman. We just have to hope that WV can take care of business.

If Tim doesn't win the Heisman, it will be the greatest voting theft ever!

Sorry about the double post - don't know how that happened.

It is an important question, worthy of being posted twice though! [img]{SMILIES_PATH}/icon_smile.gif[/img]

Mods, please delete. Thanks.

I am pulling for Mizzou. I want a NC game with about a .5 share. When networks start losing money because these weak ass teams get to play for a NC then we will finally get a playoff. Fans won't change it but losing money sure as hell will.

I agree with what TTBHG said. Plus, I don't want to see tOSU stumble into the championship game (although, given their issues defending the spread, I think WVU would kill them). As Tom Diehart said, "Speaking of the Buckeyes, has any team done so much by doing so little than Ohio State? I don't know if I should be impressed or depressed."
