The latest from the conference of singular champions is we likely won't have a Big 12 Conference championship game next year, which would obviously pit to two teams who had already played, possibly just a week or two earlier. Earlier it looked like we would add the game. Now, not so much.
Bowlsby: "We all believe one year is not a long enough trial to draw any conclusions" about lack of a championship game.

While I do agree that a rematch may seem sort of goofy, in last year's case, I would have loved to see TCU get a shot at Baylor on a neutral field. They lost a Wendell Barnhouseburner in Waco and as I recall, suffering some pretty questionable calls from the notorious Big 12 refs.
A week or so ago, Bill C put up a long piece on the danger of CCGs. Texas beats Nebraska. Colorado beats Texas. Texas A&M; beats K State.
I actually like the everybody plays everybody thing. Should that be enough to crown one true champion?
Big 12 commish Bob Bowlsby says if he was a selection member he would have voted for TCU for 4th spot, not Baylor.

It seems outside of Waco Art Briles is really nobody's favorite.
What say you all?
