While Baylor prepares for a likely cake-walk against Rice this weekend, four Big 12 teams are playing conference games. We get a great match-up when Oklahoma State visits Texas, and a match-up when West Virginia visits Kansas.
In general I’m not a conference-rooter-forer (I lived in Alabama for several years and it annoyed the hell out of me when fans would blindly root for whichever SEC team was playing, so I figure I have to be consistent), but the Big 12 had a good showing this past weekend, as Kansas State, Kansas, and West Virginia all had surprising wins while OU and Texas handled inferior opponents.
