If you’ve spent any time watching Big 12 football, you’ve likely seen quite a few of them by now — a matchup in which one offense lights up the scoreboard for all 60 minutes while the other, humiliated, doesn’t have the slightest answer.
When you have as many prolific offenses in one conference as the Big 12 does, blowouts are inevitable. Not to say they can’t happen elsewhere, but the risk is far greater in this conference. Consider it a rite of passage if you wish, because just about every member school — past and present — has experienced both the high and low of such as spectacle.
