Now that spring has officially sprung, it seems like high time to take stock of the Big 12.
Much like handicappers and oddsmakers, I maintain a set of power rankings for college football teams every year that I use to project the point spreads in games. I tend focus on teams in the power conferences and some of the more high-profile Group of Five squads. Generally, I hit about 54 percent against the spread with my weekly picks, so I think the numbers are pretty solid.
The rankings below reflect my very preliminary numbers for the Big 12 teams this season.
