Here are the updated Big 12 Power Rankings following Week 12:
1. Oklahoma Sooners (previous ranking: 2): You know that saying about how Oklahoma controls its own destiny? Never more true than when Steven Parker bravely elected to break off his receiver to go bat down Bram Kohlhausen's two-point conversion pass. How the College Football Playoff committee regards OU's 30-29 win over TCU doesn't matter nearly as much as how Baker Mayfield is feeling over these next few days. Oklahoma's offense ran 43 plays without its Heisman contender in the second half.
