Chuck Carlton, Big 12 football beat writer for SportsDayDFW.com and The Dallas Morning News, answered your questions about the league in a live chat recently. Here are some highlights:
Question: Do you think all this off-the-field drama will have any effect on the Sooners?
Chuck Carlton: At the risk of being cynical, no, unless something major happens with a key player. Did the whole Joe Mixon/Frank Shannon/DGB drama a couple years ago affect Oklahoma on the field? Not really. And no matter what fans and media say, Oklahoma fans on social media don't seem to really care a whole lot as long as those Big 12 banners keep coming.
