fine. Perhaps even better than we expected. John Kurtz does a great job recapping the successful season and bowl tie-ins for the new conference.

better than the P12 in football and WAY better in basketball.

The Big 12 is going to be one of the more competitive leagues IMO.

I think 1 or 2 programs will rise up and fill the void of being the conference

Polemic

I could see OSU, Baylor, BYU, & Cinci all cycling around each other.

Need to keep this up for the next few years and have a great TV contract next

Take away tOSU, and I would argue that the new BigXII will be the 2nd best CFB conference after the SEC as the teams

This is true, IF a program steps up and becomes a "brand name"

Parity within the conference is fine if you are beating the other p5 conference

boctabulous

12/8/21 1:30pm

A conference frontrunner is absolutely essential

reddead

12/8/21 1:49pm

yep, parity in new Big12 would not be perceived well

Naturally one will arise. It's a mistaken view of history to think that won't be the case

The Pac-12 would beg to differ…

reddead

Who do we think the front runner will become? BYU, Baylor, OK State?

Ok St has one of CFB’s best coaches; BU looks best positioned to control TX

reddead

Could be wrong but feels like Baylor or OSU

Interesting take...a few years ago if you said SEC people would have thought

Maybe you can give me an example of a non brand name P5 going undefeated and

boctabulous

Undefeated is rare; better question would be how they compare 1-loss teams…

reddead

Good response. Thanks

The lack of "name brands" hurts. Who is the biggest name in the BIG XII?

Gorum the Old

I hear that, but I feel it is WAY overstated...

The reality is that a conference can only have a couple of blue bloods.

Very well said

Alabama wasn't a brand until they started winning incessantly. Miami was until

seacougar

BYU is going to be fine... No, there isn't a Texas or Oklahoma, but

If CU is any indication of interest in the PAC, nobody cares about fb east of

AlternateShot

12/8/21 5:22pm

If the B12 is only 50% of the finances of the SEC, that will be far more money

spoxjox

pretty awesome - sounds like tv ratings won't be an issue

The basketball should be #1 in KenPom almost every year. Number 2 in off year

BaylorBear

12/8/21 3:12pm

Big 12 will be the best basketball conference and the solid 3rd best football conference.

ACC may take a dive in BB, too, with Coach K retiring.

How many of those eyes on the B12 game were BYU fans, who now care about B12?
