With as many as nine teams still alive for the Big 12 Championship Game entering the final weekend, the chaos stretching from the rivers to the mountains and deserts to the plains demands its own nickname. For today, let’s call it Big Twelvtion.
After yet another wild and upset-riddled Saturday, the Big 12 has four teams tied atop the 16-team conference: Arizona State, Iowa State, Colorado and BYU each have 6-2 records entering the season’s final week. Arizona State stayed hot and handed BYU its second loss in as many weeks, 28-23 in Tempe. Iowa State survived against Utah 31-28, while Kansas beat one of the co-leaders for the third consecutive week, this time smacking Colorado 37-21.
