What? Re-read what I posted. I said Nebraska goes 7-1 with one loss to Missouri, and Missouri goes 6-2 with two losses to south teams.So, if Nebraska went 7-1 in conference play with a loss to Missouri, but Missouri goes 6-2 in conference play with two losses to South teams, then Nebraska still wins the North division?no you dont. that would mean that you would only have a 5-3 record in conference play and you would hold the tie breaker if another team had the same record but if another team is 6-2, 7-1, or 8-0 then they would win the division. the only difference is that in division games will give you a tie breaker if you win and out of division games will not. but the goal is still to win the most conference games not just division games.It's important, but doesn't beating every team in your division still give you the North championship, even if you were to lose all three games against the south?i dont believe that to be correct. losing a conference game to a south opponent is very important when it comes to division standings....Anyways, back to the topic at hand....(flippin thread hijackers)![]()
The OU-NU rivalry is non-existent. Sure, it's nice to re-hash the memories of great games, great wins, and tough losses, but it doesn't really matter anymore because unless we meet in the Big 12 title game, beating the other in regular conference play doesn't really do much for us unless we get into tiebreaker situations.
I'm not saying you're wrong, but that just seems backwards. When you look at the NFL, for example, beating every team in your division will win you the division no matter how bad you played against teams outside your division.
How can NU go 7-1 while losing all three games to the south????????
