The biggest news from Week 11 was what was gonna happen in Week 12. Sure, Week 11 saw Bama take down LSU in typical Bama fashion and the surprise of OU dominating Baylor. But Week 12...
- Baylor bounced back just like Bama did after their 1-loss. They controlled the OSU game at OSU and never let up.
- OU continued their resurgence after the Texas loss and had a comfortable enough lead in the third to pull the starting QB (Mayfield) due to a possible concussion. That was the hole TCU needed, and almost got through, with OU barely escaping with that win.
- And Ohio State, no surprise here, came crashing down in the final seconds...and then again in the post-game interviews. Playing non-ranked teams all season and not always looking dominant, I figured this was gonna happen. The Bucks scored only two TDs and both were on a short field. They were not prepared for MSU but MSU was prepared for the them. And there was a lot of finger-pointing during the post-game. That bad feeling is gonna carry over to next week and it can't be good (either for OSU or the opponent).
