1 (A+ 98%) - Texas Tech (10-0)
I don't have any questions ... do you have any questions? Two weeks until the biggest game in the history of organized sport this week. 
(HD rank 5-5-4-4-4-4-4-4-2-1-1)

2 (A 97%) - Texas (9-1)
Beating up on Baylor (45-21) can't be that much fun anymore. The Horns have to take care of business and hope. Looks like it could be nasty weather in Lawrence.
(HD rank 4-4-3-3-3-3-1-1-1-2-2)

3 (A 96%) - Oklahoma (9-1)
No mercy for the Aggies -- 66-28. I guess the Sooners are about as ready as they'll ever be to host Texas Tech. Too bad we have to wait two weeks.
(HD rank 1-1-1-1-1-1-3-3-3-3-3)

4 (A- 92%) - Oklahoma State (9-1)
Join the club Cowboys. Well, Oklahoma is still at the end of the schedule, so there is still damage to be done. Maybe a trip to Boulder will clear your heads.
(HD rank 6-6-6-7-6-6-2-2-4-4)

5 (A- 91%) - Missouri (8-2)
Why was everybody so sad on senior day? I was kind of happy. The Tigers are bored. Should be a lovely evening up in Ames next Saturday night.
(HD rank 2-2-2-2-2-2-5-5-5-5-5)

6 (B 85%) - Nebraska (6-4)
The Huskers are beating the teams they can and staying on target for 8-4. Looks like an easy finish at KSU then hosting CU. Empty seats in Lincoln looked weird.
(HD rank 8-7-7-8-8-8-9-7-6-7-6)

7 (C 75%) - Kansas (6-4)
A game to remember for all of the wrong reasons. Are the Hawks going to knock off a good team this year? Time is getting short. 
(HD rank 3-3-5-6-5-5-6-6-7-6-7)

8 (D+ 68%) Baylor (3-7)
First off, Robert Griffin III is fun to watch. Second, I bet he'll be an absolute nightmare by the time they get back on our rotation. Third, I really liked what the Bears did defensively against Colt McCoy to start the game. Mixing it up between dropping nine into coverage and disguised blitzes. A&M visits next week in what should be a good matchup.
(HD rank 11-11-10-9-9-10-8-10-10-8-8)

9 (D 65%) - Kansas State (4-6)
That blowout rolled out kind of slow. Are the Cats improving? For once, I may root for the Cats to beat NU.
(HD rank 9-9-9-10-10-11-7-9-9-9-9)

10 (D- 62%) Texas A&M (4-6)
Kind of a rough senior day (66-28 to OU). It's almost over -- at Baylor, at Texas.
(HD rank 12-12-12-12-12-12-12-11-11-10-10)

11(D- 61%) - Colorado (5-5)
Decisive. The 28-24 win over ISU keeps bowl hopes alive. OSU visits this week, then there is the Thanksgiving trip to the land of corn.
(HD rank 7-8-8-5-7-7-10-8-8-11-11)

12 (F- 53%) Iowa State (2-8)
One foot. The death of hope. Mizzou visits next week, then a trip to Manhattan (not the fun Manhattan).(HD rank 10-10-11-11-11-9-11-12-12-12-12)
