Normally during any given weekend for any given football conference, there will be at least one close game to add some intrigue and uncertainty into the proceedings.
Maybe a team was down by a bunch and mounted a furious comeback to pull within one score in the waning moments. Or maybe two great (or two terrible) teams are so evenly matched that neither side has managed to get separation over the other for four quarters.
Well, that all sounds great, but there was none of that this weekend in the Big 12. All five games were decided by two scores, and even the two-score games weren’t as close as the final scoreline indicated.
