Phase 3: OSU Schedule Breakdown

They're 8-0, and the home stretch is looking good.

Let's get into it.

Game 9: Oklahoma State 56, Kansas State 18. Uniform Prediction:White Helmet, Orange Jersey, White Pants.
After Kansas State hit the buzz-saw of Oklahoma last week, OSU will have added confidence. The Cowboy defense has been the scapegoat of the National Media for months now, yet they're still undefeated. That speaks volumes, although perhaps not as loud as holding Robert Griffin touchdown-less for three quarters. Cowboys roll.

Game 10: Oklahoma State 62, Texas Tech 21. Uniform Prediction: Black Helmet, White Jersey, Orange Pants
There won't be an OU-type of surprise in this game. Tech's offense is explosive, but after seeing Iowa State shut them down this past weekend I'm not a believer. I see Justin Blackmon have a 200+ yard game in Lubbock.

Game 11: Oklahoma State 48, Iowa State 10 Uniform Prediction: White Helmet, White Jerseys, Orange Pants
Iowa State played well against decent teams this year, and that was mostly due to their defense shutting down the opposing offense (Iowa, Texas A&M, Tech). I don't think they can match up with the speed and 'pick your poison' type of Oklahoma State offense though, and I'm expecting this to be a shalacking.

Game 12: Oklahoma State 51, Oklahoma 38 Uniform Prediction: Black Helmets, Black Jerseys, Black Pants.
I firmly believe that this is the year of the Cowboy. Everyone will pick OU in this game because of OSU's defense, but I believe they'll get it done just as they did against Baylor. OU is vulnerable, as shown by Texas Tech, and I think the mixture of Boone Pickens Stadium being a madhouse and Weeden dissecting that semi-weak secondary that Texas Tech played will result in a field-rushing, BCS National Championships berth. This is going to be a game like no other, and will be summed up with one word... Bedlam

My Top 10
1. Alabama
2. LSU
3. Oklahoma State
4. Boise State
5. Oklahoma
6. Oregon
7. Stanford
8. South Carolina
9. Clemson
10. Nebraska

Yes, my Top 10 doesn't include Arkansas. You'll see why in the next few weeks.

That's all I've got. Notice I didn't talk about any Dallas teams in this post. It's been a rough weekend.
