Big 12 Football Predictions: Week 6
Will Gallagher

In week six, the Red River Rivalry takes center stage. Does Texas pull another upset or will Oklahoma get revenge?

Oklahoma State 45, Iowa State 23 – The Cowboys stomp all over the Cyclones in a game that is never in doubt. Mason Rudolph throws for 4 touchdowns, including 2 to running back Barry Sanders Jr. Iowa State struggles to get going on offense until it is far too late, scoring 13 of their 23 points in the fourth quarter while Mike Gundy pulls his starters.

TCU 56, Kansas 17 – After winning the past two meetings by a combined 10 points, TCU blasts the Jayhawks. Jumping out to a 28-0 lead, the Horned Frogs explode offensively and never look back. Turpin gathers up 400 all-purpose yards while Gary Patterson’s defense pitches a first half shutout.

Kansas State 31, Texas Tech 23 – Desperate for a win, Bill Snyder uses some of his magic and coaches a fantastic game at home. The Wildcats put an end to Tech’s undefeated season by pounding the rock up the middle and playing physical defense.

Oklahoma 37, Texas 20 – Last year, the Longhorns shocked the college football world and got a win that saved Charlie Strong’s job. Not this time. The Sooners, led by Mayfield and Perine, attack the Texas defense relentlessly. Mayfield throws for 300 yards and 2 touchdowns, and Perine churns up 160 yards and scores twice as well. A pick-six at the end of the game is nothing more than salt-in-the-wound for Texas, who heads back to Austin with a losing record.

Week 6 Standings:

  1. TCU — 6-0 (3-0)
  2. Baylor — 5-0 (2-0)
  3. West Virginia — 4-0 (1-0)
  4. Oklahoma State — 5-1 (2-1)
  5. Oklahoma — 4-1 (1-1)
  6. Texas Tech — 4-1 (1-1)
  7. Kansas State — 3-2 (1-1)
  8. Kansas — 2-3 (0-2)
  9. Texas — 2-3 (0-2)
  10. Iowa State — 2-4 (0-3)

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.
