Oklahoma State had a somewhat better chance of beating Texas than West Virginia did of
beating Kansas, so their losses hurt Oklahoma State somewhat more than West Virginia,
dropping the Cowboys into last place by the slimmest of margins.  Similarly, Texas Tech
had a somewhat lesser chance of beating Baylor than Kansas did of beating West Virginia,
so their wins helped Texas Tech somewhat more than Kansas, allowing the Red Raiders to
climb into second place.  Again, there will be no fractional wins at the end of the
season, so the way to think of the current situation is a four-way tie at 12-6.

No road wins were projected for Round 13, but two actually happened.  TCU had managed
to avoid losing a conference game at home until Kansas came to town for Big Monday,
and that has apparently snowballed into consecutive home losses, this one unexpectedly
to Oklahoma.  The other road win was the one we were looking for, with Iowa State
atoning for their unexpected home loss to TCU.  So we remain three road wins ahead of
the long-term one-in-three average.  Only three games in Round 14, as the last of the
byes occur, but two of them are projected to be road wins, with Kansas State favored
in Morgantown and TCU favored in Stillwater, though both are projected to be one
possession games.
