We have reached Thanksgiving week in the Big 12 and after Thursday’s feast, leave room for plenty of leftovers to snack on Friday and Saturday.
The race for Arlington and the Big 12 title game will be clearer after this weekend. Not to get too far into the weeds on championship game birth scenarios,
a win by Iowa State at Texas on Friday puts the Cyclones in. A WVU loss eliminates the Mountaineers and puts Oklahoma on track for yet another Big 12 title game berth. Oklahoma State no longer controls its own destiny and needs losses by Oklahoma and Texas, but does hold a tie-breaker on Iowa State.
