While the Big 12 title race is basically down to just three teams, the conference is still due for chaos that can shake up the top of the standings.
Texas had found themselves with every opportunity to be atop the Big 12, but squandered any chance of getting there after losing three consecutive games while having a double-digit lead in each. At this point, schools not from Oklahoma or not named Baylor, are all playing to earn a spot in a bowl game and for pride.
The fight for the top couple spots is certainly heating up, and now schools such as TCU, West Virginia, and even Texas are looking to spoil the chances of everyone in their path.
The Longhorns likely need a win most of all to stop their downward spiral, but them playing against an angry Iowa State team, who is fresh off a loss to West Virginia, does not help their chances at all.
With that being said, it is time for my weekly Big 12 predictions. Heading into this week, I hold an overall record of 30-16. Let’s see if I can do better in Week 10.
