at Nebraska: #50 in the Sportsline 119; no AP or Coaches votes
Baylor: #87 in the Sportsline 119; powderpuff
at Missouri: #55 in the Sportsline 119; lost at home to eh New Mexico
Oklahoma State: #36 in the Sportsline 119, but still no AP or Coaches votes
at Texas A&M: #29 in the Sportsline 119; #33 in the AP; #40 in the Coaches
Kansas State: #56 in the Sportsline 119; no AP or Coaches votes
Colorado: #24 in the Sportsline 119; #30 in the AP; #34 in the Coaches
at Kansas: #75 in the Sportsline 119; powderpuff
Since Iowa State is #23 in the AP and #32 in the Coaches (and #28 in the Sportsline 119, although that's less relevant), if lines were set today on all of Iowa State's remaining games, ISU would be the favorite in all of them except the game at A&M, which would probably be a pick 'em. (Colorado is a slightly better team than A&M, but Iowa State's playing Colorado at home and A&M on the road.) Off-hand, I'd put ISU's chances against A&M at 50-50; Colorado at 60-40; Missouri, Nebraska, and Ok. State at 65-35; Kansas State at 75-25; Kansas at 80-20, and Army and Baylor at 90-10. Multiplying all those chances out -- which I think are all reasonable guesses based on the information we currently have -- gives Iowa State a 4 percent chance to go to the Big 12 title game with an 11-0 record. I am not making this up.

i sincerely do not know what you are doing here. are you lost? were you
looking for your delicate calico cat, and did you follow her up two flights of stairs
to this room? she is not here. she was here, yes. we gave her a warm bowl of milk, we talked with her about campaign finance reform for a time, and then she bid us good day. i believe she was
going to the post office two blocks down, but i don't quite recall.
for surely you did
not find your way from prinsiana, the least traveled site on
the internet. if you did, though, perhaps you are looking for humor. perhaps you are looking for profundity. perhaps you are looking for answers.
i'm sorry, but you shall go naught-for-three.
