We have a change at the top.
After another dominating performance, we're projecting West Virginia to represent the Big 12 in a New Year's Six bowl. The Mountaineers destroyed TCU 34-10 on Saturday and are emphatically playing the best defense in the Big 12. If West Virginia gets out of next weekend's tilt in Stillwater with a victory, the CFP selection committee will have to take notice.
After the Longhorns dropped their third loss in four games in a 24-21 defeat at Kansas State, we still have Texas going bowling -- but just barely. To make a bowl, the Longhorns will have to beat Kansas, then win two of four against No.
