Oklahoma’s departure from the Big 12 to the SEC is ultimately why there’s only one Bedlam left on the schedule. A month ago it seemed like the Sooners and Longhorns would be throwing their own going-away party in Arlington and one would take the Big 12 trophy as a parting gift.
But now, Oklahoma State is in position to crash its in-state rival’s party in Arlington, and not only dethrone OU, but the Cowboys could even take charge themselves.
Five teams enter Saturday tied atop the Big 12 standings at 4-1 in conference play: OSU, OU, Texas, Kansas State and Iowa State.
