Everyone wants to talk about USC playing Nebraska. They aren't even favored to win the weakest division in all of major college sports conferences.

Yeah, but perception is everything PC.....

I think the BCS and Game Day have shown us that the past few years. Nebraska's a big name, no matter how good they are right now.

Same goes for Oklahoma, USC, Alabama, Miami, Florida State.... at least they recognize that Notre Dame sucks ass

Okay, I've just discovered the long lost third guarantee in life.

Death. Taxes. And Missouri not winning the Big 12 North. If ever there was a bastion for mediocrity in college football, it's definitely Mizzou. Seriously, if the two greatest highlights in your schools football history consists of a 5th down loss to Colorado in 1990 and a kicked ball up in the air for a touchdown by Nebraska in 1997, then your program's got problems. Mizzou's basketball team is mediocre too.

Here's how the season's gonna go down in the Big 12 North. Mizzou will start out 5-0, 6-0. against cream puff teams. Then, the Tigers will fold once they get to the meat of their schedule. They will lose to Nebraska, Iowa State, Kansas State, and/or OU or Texas. They will finish the season at 7-5 and will play in some second tier bowl that you will watch with your relatives while you sip on hot apple cider at a freeking Christmas Party.

The Big 12 North Title will be determined by the winner of the K-State/Nebraska game, as was often the case in the 1990's. Either team will get masacred in the Big 12 Title game, which seems to be the recent trend.
