#9 Baylor (10-2, 7-2) had exactly what it needed to happen last weekend happen, with a win over Texas Tech and #5 Oklahoma State (11-1, 8-1) defeating Oklahoma. Not only did those outcomes put OU’s program into an absolute tailspin, but it secured a Big 12 championship meeting between Baylor and Oklahoma State, two of the schools that will be remaining in the Big 12. That is excellent news for the remaining and future members of the Big 12. There are huge implications behind this game as well. A win by Oklahoma State would almost assuredly put the Cowboys into the College Football Playoff.
