This is a weekly thread to discuss football in the Big 12. Discussion should be limited to football in the conference.
| Week 4 Results |
|---|
- Cincinnati 34 - Houston 0
Cincinnati took care of business at home for their first ever Big 12 home win. This should clear up any confusion in the tiers.
- West Virginia 32 - Kansas 28
West Virginia was able to force a three-and-out to get the ball back from Kansas with two minutes to play and down three points. They worked their way down the field for a touchdown to take the final lead at home.
- #20 Iowa State 52 - Arkansas State 7
Iowa Sate took care of business at home with an expected dominant win over Arkansas State.
- Texas Tech 30 - Arizona State 22
Texas Tech drew first blood and was able to hold on to their lead over the Sun Devils at home.
- #12 Utah 22 - #14 Oklahoma State 19
Utah was able to bottle up Ollie Gordon to 42 yards on 11 carries while their own Micah Bernard was able to rush for 182 yards on 25 carries. If you can stifle the home team’s rushing attack on the road and find success with your own rushing attack, you’re going to have a good day. I haven’t mapped out the possibilities, but we could very well see this game repeated in Arlington.
- SMU 66 - TCU 42
SMU took the Iron Skillet and beat TCU with it up and down the field. TCU’s five turnovers nullified the fact that they outgained SMU by 105 total yards. Sonny Dykes couldn’t stand to watch it any longer from the sidelines, so he decided to get tossed so as to not have to witness the beating in person.
- Colorado 38 - Baylor 31
It’s always fun to have a complete meltdown at the end of a game on national television. Colorado even pulled off what I believed to be impossible, which was to get most of r/CFB to pull for Baylor. I had a hunch that we would lose after missing the kick that would’ve put us up by two scores late in the fourth. And then when I saw the ball come out in OT I knew it was done. Once again I’m saying that we should be using Richard Reese more than we do. He holds on to the ball, which is something the rest of the offense can’t seem to do.
- BYU 38 - #13 Kansas State 9
Another moon game in Provo helped BYU with their rout of Kansas State.

| Championship Picks |

I think the Championship runs though the state of Utah. This might be an overreaction, but such is CFB. BYU worked K-State and Utah won in Stillwater.
