How weak is the BIG XII North really?

this thread has kind of turned into a 2 part question/answer...

1st question: is North weak.....

IMO, I think the North and the Big 12 is showing well.... the guys on ESPN can kiss my a$$.... I really hope that tech and TU win, so the Big 12 can win the bowl challenge..... ISU lost, but only becuase Meyer couldn't handle the ball..... and I will catch crap for this, but I picked CU to win...... I know the stats were very lopsided, but remember, Klatt makes a difference !!!! With Klatt on the field, and without the off the field stuff, CU beats Clemson....

2nd Question: rank North teams for 2006.....based on recent showings

IMO:

NU - ISU * this is a toss up.... ISU has 10 starters on Offense and their best

best 2 d-line players back (Berryman-Curvey)..plus game is at ISU

NU will be a much improved team.....this will be for the North

MU Lose Smith, but a lot of starters back.... Pinkel still coach, enough said

KU Offense returns, but lose a ton on D....plus, play at NU, ISU

CU Have talent, and Hawkins can coach !!

KSU It is a mess, plus I hate those bastards..... :steam

why didnt klatt play??? was he hurt, or did he violate team rules, or quit in protest of Barnett's firing?

 
Believe it or not, he wasn't medically cleared from the hit he took in the Big 12 Championship game.

It's too bad because I too think CU could have beat Clemson with him.

He made the decision after that concussion against Texas to not play in the game, AFAIK.

 
The North is certainly doing better than everyone expected and we should be the early on favorite to win the northern division next season.
