dvdcrr Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 The Big 12 office is at it again. This time it is blatantly obvious. Baylor should be the outright champions of the conference. They have an identical record as TCU but they have the head to head victory over TCU. By their own written rules Baylor should be the conference representative. But the Big 12 knows that it lessens TCU s shot at the playoff if Baylor is named conference champions. What a mess! This reminds me when we had the head to head victory over mizzou in 2010 yet the big 12 website never once listed Nebraska in front of mizzou in the division standings. Always that we were tied and mizzous name was always on top. Even when we were actually playing in the championship game. Big 12 creates their own mess. This reminds me why I am glad we are out. 3 Quote Link to comment

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Big 12 also award Missouri with a North Division trophy on top of this? I'm glad were not involved in that mess either. Quote Link to comment
husker_rob Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Don't miss that mess of a conference whatsoever. Â And I absolutely detest the brand of football that is played there, for the most part (basketball on grass, no defense). 1 Quote Link to comment
Elf Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 Ahhh...The Bevo Conference....so glad we are gone! Â So what recourse does Baylor have if they are not named Conference Champions? Quote Link to comment
The Tall Texan Posted December 7, 2014 Share Posted December 7, 2014 I wonder if the two Nebraska guys on the selection committee had any influence? 1 Quote Link to comment
