[QUOTE="Purp, post: 2661761, member: 12852"] Thus far I think you're right. Most of the bowl projections that have us anywhere but Liberty and Texas seem like they're just looking at standings and bowl priority and plugging in what they see. It also seems like they all assume OU won't make the playoff or forget that the Sugar is obligated to take Texas if that happens. I just don't understand why these people, whose job it is to know stuff like this, can't seem to do projections with even the slightest amount of effort to do well. Unless a poster earlier in another thread is right and the Texas Bowl has preordained the Pokes to represent the B12 there I see us in Houston. Otherwise, I think it's Memphis and I really don't see how anyone else could think otherwise. They'd really have to think bowls who pick first would expect Baylor to travel better than us and those clowns couldn't even put more people in the Cotton Bowl 100 miles away from campus than a fan base from the opposite end of the country. I've never put much stock in these projections before, but there only seem to be 2 or 3 that are even remotely thoughtful when it comes to the last half of the bowl game list. [/QUOTE]
