The decade's most triggering comedy
The Big 12 is becoming more interesting every week, and while I picked Oklahoma to win the conference, there are some teams that do have a chance to unseat them.
The Big 12 is deeper than the Pacific Ocean right now, and the matchups are more intriguing than Elon Musk at a science fair.
Dave Aranda has turned Baylor into a physical team that demands respect, Oklahoma State went from spreading you out to mashing you in, and Kansas is going through a resurgence that rivals the end of the Romanov dynasty. And let’s not forget K-State has shown the ability to be dangerous at every turn.
Oh, and there’s another team in the Big 12 that seems to be turning a corner — the Texas Longhorns. Quarterback Quinn Ewers might be hurt, but Hudson Card has experience and can make the throws Sark needs to put pressure on all three layers of the defense. Speaking of defense, Texas has gone from not being able to tackle a third grade math problem, to shoving ‘Bama around for 3 ½ quarters.
Long story short, the Big 12 is up in the air right now.

There is a ton of football left to play and key injuries can happen at any time, but at this point, I couldn’t feel better about picking Oklahoma to come out on top of the Big 12.
