I鈥檓 going to tell you who I鈥檓 picking to win the Big 12 in the Tulsa World鈥檚 2012 college football special section, but I need to point something out first.Men are funny in this way: Most of us are homely, slothful, slack-jawed troglodytes who, as a public service, should be hidden from public view. And yet when you put,gucci bags, for instance, a group photo of supermodels in front of us, we might start finding flaws and nit-picking them into oblivion.For instance: 鈥淗ey,burberry bags, Cindy Crawford looks sharp,celine bags, but she鈥檚 got that mole.鈥漈hat isn鈥檛 a case of the pot calling the kettle black. It鈥檚 more like the garnish on a steak house plate saying the ribeye isn鈥檛 up to par.Let鈥檚 call it the Jerry Seinfeld syndrome. During his classic TV series, the comedian dated a string of nice-looking gals, but he and his mates always seemed to find a (usually trivial) flaw in them and Jerry just couldn鈥檛 get past whatever that was.And that鈥檚 where I am with the Big 12 football race.I look at all the possible contenders and they鈥檝e all got a flaw I just can鈥檛 get past.Texas hasn鈥檛 shown anybody anything in two years. (Recruit like Tarzan, play like Jane?)Oklahoma has injury issues in the offensive line and attitude issues at receiver and isn鈥檛 this basically the same team that produced head-scratching performances against Texas Tech, Baylor and Oklahoma State?West Virginia made the best last impression, putting up an absurd point total against Clemson in a bowl game. But does anyone know if the Mountaineers can play defense well enough to win a championship? And,http://www.hotelwestpoint.com/?tag=hotel&lang=en, best guess, they鈥檒l be shell-shocked a little by their first tour through Big 12 venues.I can鈥檛 pick OSU to repeat as Big 12 champs, even with an improved defense, because that鈥檚 a lot to expect from a squad quarterbacked by a first-year freshman.Try to figure out Texas Tech and it will only make your brain hurt. After shocking Oklahoma, the Red Raiders were outscored 256-102 while going 0-5 the rest of the season.TCU? I bet the Horned Frogs put up a good fight this season,hotelwestpoint, but it won鈥檛 be good enough.Baylor? The Heisman winner, the guy who oozed magic,tory burch outlet, is gone to the NFL.Kansas? It鈥檚 not basketball season.Iowa State? The Cyclones do a good job of maximizing assets, but,burberry outlet, in a league where everybody plays everybody,celinefullyan, talent is going to win out.And that leaves one team: Kansas State. I don鈥檛 think any Big 12 team actually deserves to be the favorite,Longchamp pas cher, but somebody has to be,Oakley sunglasses Outlet, so I鈥檓 going with the school that has both a coach of the century (Bill Snyder) and the league鈥檚 best pure football player (Collin Klein), even though he won鈥檛 be the all-conference quarterback.I was charged with the responsibility of asking Klein a few completely harmless poll question at the Big 12鈥檚 football media days and -- get this -- he said (and repeated when I asked again) that he did not have an opinion on whether he prefers morning, day or night games. How can you not have an opinion on that? Kickoff times determine whether players spend all Saturday in hotel meeting rooms or whether they finish early and get the rest of the day off.The vibe I got was that Snyder has done such a good job of turning his players into 鈥渃ompany men鈥?that they had been transformed into Stepford Wildcats whose sole purpose in life was to do exactly -- and only -- what their coach wants them to do.I can鈥檛 rationalize a better choice,Cheap USA true religion On Sale true religion jeans Outlet Online Store! True religion Outlet., so I鈥檒l go out on a limb and pick the Stepfords to win the Big 12. And,hotelwestpoint, just to set the record straight, I didn鈥檛 ask Klein to break down the flaws of supermodels.
