Big East |
Big Ten |
Big 12 |
Pac-12 |
SEC
Big 12
Baylor
For Under The Tree: A defense
that's just a half-shade better than
completely and utterly miserable. In The Stocking:
Another quarterback whose stats can be
in the same discussion as RG3's and Nick
Florence's.
Iowa State
For Under The Tree: More
linebackers like A.J. Klein and Jake
Knott. In The Stocking: An offense that can occasionally keep up the pace with at least half the teams in the Big 12.
Kansas
For Under The Tree: A decided
schematic advantage that occasionally
factors in a completed downfield throw. In The Stocking:
A defense that stops a few of the
downfield throws that the offense can
only dream of making.
Kansas
State
For Under The Tree: A do-over
against Baylor. In The Stocking:
Yet another Bill Snyder quarterback who
fits the Michael Bishop, Ell Roberson,
Jonathan Beasley and Collin Klein mode,
but who can also throw like a Ron Prince
passer, Josh Freeman.
Oklahoma
For Under The Tree: To get the
home mojo back. In The Stocking:
A contract extension for Mack Brown. Oklahoma
State
For Under The Tree: Just a wee
bit more time for some of the rising
young stars to grow up. In The Stocking:
A road win against someone other than
Kansas. Texas
For Under The Tree: The same
wish for yet another season - for all
the four and five-star talent being
brought in to play like it. In The Stocking:
A defensive front seven that doesn't get
blown over by a light breeze. TCU
For Under The Tree: A big boy, Big 12
offense to match up with the big boy,
Big 12 defense. In The Stocking:
For all programs to handle its adversity
and scandals the way TCU dealt with its
issues last offseason.
Texas Tech For Under The Tree:
A quarterback who can produce for Texas
Tech as well as its current head coach
did. In The Stocking:
After getting just three all year, a
recovered fumble.
West
Virginia For Under The Tree:
A defensive stop against someone other
than Kansas. In The Stocking:
For Geno Smith and Stedman Bailey to
have been products of the system as well
as great talents.
