Coach Mike Gundy is a young, charismatic offensive mind, an absolute perfect foil to the young, charismatic defensive genius over in Norman. This looks to be Gundy's best offense yet, so picking them 5th in the division is extremely difficult, but again what a helluva division to be in. Not only that, they draw Georgia in Athens to open the season. If not for all of the road games, these cats have the talent to win 10 games.Best Player - (#14) QB - Bobby Reid - 6-3 - 235 - The Big 12 is loaded with great QBs and Reid is only thought to be 6th best on that list. I completely disagree with that assessment, as Reid has more physical ability than any QB in the conference. Look for 3500 total yards and 30-40 TDs out of this kid. He's big time
Player to watch - (#22) RB - Dantrell Savage - 5-9 -195 - If he stays healthy, look out. Turning the corner and getting to the boundary are this kid's strengths. Sprinter-type speed (4.29 40)
Player successful season most hinges on - (#83) WR Artrell Woods - It has much more to do with his speed taking the heat off of All American WR (#12) Adarius Bowman, who will surely draw double coverage all season
Why they will win the Big 12: A long shot indeed, but if Reid starts to live up to the Vince Young comparisons, and a young (but experienced) defense can rise up..
Why they won't: The road schedule is a bitch, and they don't have the defense to match the big 2 (UT & OU)
Predicted 2007 record: 7-5, Independence Bowl
