  • BIG 12 BEST BETS: Arizona Upsets Kansas State, Texas Tech Soars, Iowa State Rolls, Deion Sanders?

    BIG 12 BEST BETS: Arizona Upsets Kansas State, Texas Tech Soars, Iowa State Rolls, Deion Sanders?
    Sep 11 2025

    The Big 12's 2025 college football season has been nothing short of electric, proving to be one of the most exciting and unpredictable leagues in the country. With the addition of new teams and a new 16-team format, the conference has showcased its depth and parity in a way that has made nearly every game feel important.

    The action started with a bang, with several marquee non-conference matchups that captivated fans. TCU's decisive win over North Carolina, spoiling Bill Belichick's college coaching debut, was a huge statement for the conference. Utah's dominant performance on the road against UCLA also provided the Big 12 with a significant quality win against a Big Ten opponent. These wins, coupled with high-scoring victories by teams like Texas Tech and BYU, set a tone of high-level play and offensive firepower.

    What makes the Big 12 so "electric" this season is the number of close, competitive games. There have been no easy wins, and the outcomes of many games have been decided by a single play or a last-second field goal. The Cy-Hawk rivalry game between Iowa State and Iowa went down to the wire, with a clutch 54-yard field goal giving the Cyclones a dramatic victory. Similarly, Kansas State's upset loss to Army and Arizona State's close defeat to Mississippi State were hard-fought battles that could have gone either way.

    The league's competitiveness is a testament to its coaching and talent. Multiple teams, including BYU, Utah, Iowa State, and Texas Tech, are currently undefeated and ranked, and several others are on the cusp of the top 25. This creates a fascinating and wide-open conference race where a team with a single loss can still be a contender for the championship. The fact that the Big 12 has so many teams that can legitimately compete for a conference title and a spot in the expanded College Football Playoff is what makes this season so compelling and unpredictable. The action on the field has lived up to the hype, making the Big 12 a must-watch every Saturday.

  • WHAT: ESPN Is Predicting THREE Big 12 Teams in College Football Playoff, Utah, TCU, Arizona Over BYU

    WHAT: ESPN Is Predicting THREE Big 12 Teams in College Football Playoff, Utah, TCU, Arizona Over BYU
    Sep 10 2025
    In the world of advanced analytics, Bill Connelly's SP+ model is one of the most respected, and its resume rankings often provide a different perspective than traditional polls. While there's no record of a specific tweet by Bill Connelly claiming the Big 12 has three playoff teams based on resume alone, the SP+ rankings themselves do show that the Big 12 has a legitimate case for multiple teams to make the expanded College Football Playoff.Connelly's SP+ is a predictive system that measures a team's efficiency on a play-by-play basis, adjusting for tempo and opponent. The "resume" aspect of the ranking takes into account a team's on-field results, giving more credit for dominant wins over strong opponents. Given the Big 12's strong start to the season, it's very plausible that the model would favor its top teams.The Big 12's Top Contenders in SP+Based on the recent SP+ rankings, the Big 12 has several teams in a strong position:Texas Tech: The Red Raiders have been a surprise, with their high-powered offense and improved defense. Their early-season dominance has likely given them a significant boost in the SP+ ratings. The model would be impressed with their high-scoring affairs, as it often rewards offensive efficiency.Utah: The Utes have also impressed the model with their strong start. Their convincing road victory over UCLA, a Big Ten team, would be a major resume builder. The SP+ system would likely view this as a high-quality win, even if the AP Poll wasn't as impressed.Iowa State: The Cyclones' dramatic win over their rival Iowa, combined with their 3-0 start, has likely caught the attention of the SP+ model. Winning a close, low-scoring game against a quality opponent can be a sign of a team's grit and overall efficiency, which the model would value.BYU: The Cougars have also been dominant in their early games, and the SP+ model tends to be high on them due to their talent and coaching stability. While their resume might not be as strong as Utah's yet, their on-field dominance would be a factor.Support Us By Supporting Our Sponsors!5-Hour ENERGYTee up that trip!

  • WOW: Big 12 Just PUBLICLY BURIED Greg Sankey, SEC On Twitter for BULLYING ESPN, Conference Expansion

    WOW: Big 12 Just PUBLICLY BURIED Greg Sankey, SEC On Twitter for BULLYING ESPN, Conference Expansion
    Sep 9 2025

    Texas Tech booster and prominent college football figure Cody Campbell recently took to Twitter to call out SEC Commissioner Greg Sankey. Campbell's criticism came after a leaked email from Sankey to the commissioners of the "Group of Six" conferences was made public.

    In the email, Sankey was reportedly dismissive and condescending toward the other commissioners, suggesting that the power conferences (SEC and Big Ten) would handle the future of college sports and that the other conferences should essentially stay out of the way.

    Campbell, who has been a vocal proponent for a more balanced and collaborative approach to college sports governance, shared his reaction on Twitter. He wrote, "All I can say is 'Wow!!' Bullying the G6 conference commissioners to prevent them from representing their members and making their voices heard!?" He went on to question if this approach was consistent with the goal of doing what is best for "ALL of college sports—women's sports, Olympic sports, and smaller schools?"

    The tweet and the broader controversy highlight the growing tension between the SEC and Big Ten and the rest of college football. Campbell, as a key figure in the Big 12, has been a leading voice in advocating for the "other" conferences, arguing that the two superconferences should not unilaterally make decisions that affect the entire college sports landscape. His public rebuke of Sankey underscores the ongoing power struggle and the deep-seated disagreements over the future of the sport's governance.
