Even Mike Gundy doesn’t fully understand the Big 12’s tiebreaker procedures to get into the conference championship game in Arlington on Dec. 2. He does know one thing for sure, though: the Cowboys probably won’t get in unless they win their last two regular-season games.
Despite suffering its second conference loss Saturday to UCF, Oklahoma State is still in the vehicle for a trip to Arlington. But, unlike a week ago, just winning out won’t get OSU inside AT&T Stadium.
OSU’s loss, plus West Virginia and Kansas losses, created a four-way tie for second place in the Big 12 among OSU, Oklahoma, Kansas State and Iowa State.
