Cotton Bowl = 92,100, TX = 100,119, OU = 82,112

I agree it is much more neutral for both teams based on location. But saying it is bigger venue for both is not correct.

192 miles OU to Cotton Bowl
197 miles TX to Cotton Bowl

The even ticket split, equal distance and the fact the game happens at the Cotton Bowl which is on the Texas State Fairgrounds during the Texas State Fair is a major contributor to them always holding the game there...

Another freaking away game? Ugh

Oh good, I was worried we'd have some winnable road games next year.

Because MWC schools are so above us now

As should Missouri. They recently lost to Indiana

dang our home schedule really is going to suck most years.

2015 is an AAC/MWC combination home schedule

Yeah, kind like it has for....like...ever. WAC and MWC home skeds were

Yeah, we really need another tough road game in 2015

NOCAL_YFAN

10/1/14 7:55pm

Missouri does still need one more game in 2015 and likely a home game for them:

rainorsnow

10/1/14 7:55pm

Interesting - they have 3 Go5 teams (or lower) now SE MO St, AR St & UConn

BYUFam1

10/2/14 7:37am

I think that rule for the SEC might not be effective until 2016.

So UCLA, Nebraska, Michigan, and Missouri? Yikes.

HtownCoug

Cincy and ECU could be a handful

Hmmm that kind of looks like a P5 teams schedule lol

kotacoug

Exactly. Yikes.

10/1/14 8:04pm

well, they also have some teams at home

El Joffrey

10/1/14 8:09pm

Actually... It looks a lot harder than a P5 teams schedule.

10/1/14 10:05pm

So who would have the tougher road schedule next year?

NOCAL_YFAN

10/1/14 8:08pm

BYU toughest, then Oklahoma, Ohio St looks pretty easy.

GastonCoug

10/1/14 8:11pm

At a glance it looks tougher than both ose teams. Maybe comparable to OK.

10/1/14 8:14pm

Right. At worst it is the same - yet we would likely still hear schedule as the

2015 has nothing to do with 2013. Not comparable.

Senior-laden team with Taysom and Jamaal leading the way. Michigan and Nebraska

Bronco wants 2015 to be a playoff year

10/1/14 7:58pm

That would be the most difficult road schedule in the country.

We lose Jordan Leslie on offense and that's it

Hundley is a junior. he could leave early, but it's not certain

Read my post above. I expect to beat Michigan and a close game at Nebraska.

Ok but you said expect a year like 13. I'm not going to expect 5 losses. No way.
