It was a rough week for the two teams that will be leaving the Big 12 in the near future as Texas and Oklahoma both dropped their first conference game of the season.
The Longhorns carried a 10-point lead into halftime but were unable to stave off Donovan Smith and the Red Raiders in overtime. The Sooners were beaten by a dominant performance from Adrian Martinez, thrusting the Kansas State Wildcats back into the conference title conversation.
The Kansas Jayhawks improved to 4-0 on the season and are just one of three teams in the Big 12 still undefeated. They’ve played one more game than TCU and Oklahoma State. With the Horned Frogs hosting Oklahoma and Oklahoma State traveling to Waco to face the Baylor Bears, it’s conceivable that the Jayhawks, who host Iowa State, could be the lone remaining undefeated team in the conference after week five.
Week four had several upsets and close games on the Big 12 schedule. How do the teams stack up in this week’s power rankings after week four?
