Let’s just stipulate to the following fact: except for its initial few years, the Big 12 has always been a little weird. The unique circumstances of the 2020 season have only compounded this innate weirdness.
But first...
COVID 2, Big 12 0
Baylor announced today that it is temporarily suspending all football activities due to positive coronavirus tests and close contact tracing. Meanwhile, our cousins in Lawrence had their own COVID bombshell today, when Kansas announced that head coach Les Miles has tested positive.
Fortunately, both teams are off this Saturday or Big 12 weirdness would have been dialed way up.
