Ranked behind Oregon after demolishing a common opponent that Oregon barely beat (Texas Tech). The problem they have now is a"what changed?" issue next Sunday morning. If it's between Oregon and Texas, Oregon was ranked ahead and now avenged their loss and beat the no. 3 team. Won their conference. Texas would then point to winning their conference and beating . . . Oklahoma State.
There is no credible basis for arguing that these events justify moving Texas ahead of Oregon. Maybe if Bama were to win it would be enough by raising Texas's resume, but absent that, if it came down to Oregon and Texas, nothing changed except things that made Oregon a stronger candidate.
