One of the fiercest rivalries in college football traditionally involved the Oklahoma Sooners and Texas Longhorns. Now, the Big 12 has taken a focus to other rivalries around the conference due to the dip in the win column for Texas if late. Rivalries like Bedlam between the Sooners and Oklahoma State Cowboys, and the formerly known “revivalry” between the TCU Horned Frogs and Baylor Bears took center stage since the start of the 2014 campaign.
Since 2011, Bedlam has actually decided the majority of the Big 12 Title decisions, or played a massive role in them. The Red River Shootout between Texas and Oklahoma still has the stigma of one of the best and most intense rivalries in the nation.
