BIG 12 SQUAD - Why the Big Twelve SHOULD Have Two Teams in the CFP
DEC 11, 2025
BIG 12 SQUAD - Why the Big Twelve SHOULD Have Two Teams in the CFP
The Big 12 Conference has been nothing short of a whirlwind over the past week, marked by a major championship, postseason selection drama, and a groundbreaking business announcement that reinforces its "New Look" identity. 1. Championship and CFP Breakthrough The week started with the Big 12 Championship Game where Texas Tech defeated BYU in a commanding fashion (34-7). This victory propelled the Red Raiders to a 12-1 record, securing the Big 12's automatic bid to the expanded College Football Playoff. The subsequent CFP rankings confirmed Texas Tech as the No. 4 seed, earning them a crucial first-round bye straight to the Orange Bowl Quarterfinal—a massive statement for the restructured league. 2. Bowl and Political Fallout While the Big 12 celebrated Tech's CFP inclusion and the bowl selections for seven other teams, drama erupted over the bubble. Commissioner Brett Yormark publicly backed the CFP committee's decision, despite BYU's exclusion, and notably criticized Notre Dame's Athletic Director for his "egregious" outrage over the Irish being left out. This positioned the Big 12 as a stable, unified partner in the new CFP ecosystem, contrasting sharply with the ACC's turmoil. Adding to the controversy, the conference levied $500,000 fines on Iowa State and Kansas State for opting to skip bowl games, underscoring the conference's commitment to fulfilling its postseason obligations. 3. NFL Partnership Announcement Perhaps the most significant long-term news was the conference's announcement of a strategic partnership with the NFL. This collaboration aims to align the two organizations on everything from officiating development and emerging technology to global growth initiatives. This unprecedented move further showcases the Big 12's innovative, business-forward approach under Yormark, establishing a distinct brand identity separate from the traditionalist SEC/Big Ten dynamic.

DISASTER?: Baylor’s Recruiting Class "FAILURE" Could Actually Bring MAJOR Transfer Portal WINS

Baylor Bears football faces a turning point after landing their lowest-ranked recruiting class in over two decades—but could this surprise setback spark a new path forward? Cam Stuart explores how missing out on top high school commits might empower Baylor to reallocate vital NIL funds toward proven talent in the transfer portal, raising the stakes for head coach Dave Aranda’s 2026 trajectory. Discover which positions command the biggest price tags, the hidden advantages of roster resets, and why Baylor must outmaneuver powerhouse programs with deeper pockets.

The conversation heats up as Big 12 commissioner Brett Yormark publicly calls out Notre Dame’s leadership, potentially ending any rumors of the Irish joining the Big 12. Plus, Michigan’s shocking firing of Sherrone Moore could send transfer shockwaves through college football, possibly opening the door for coveted recruit Jamarion Vincent to reconsider the Bears. Can Baylor capitalize on chaos across the college landscape? Don’t miss Cam Stuart’s unfiltered analysis and fan Q&A.

CONSPIRACY: Did Former Baylor AD Mack Rhoades' Firing SABOTAGE BYU In Major CFP SNUB?

Did Mack Rhoades sabotage Baylor Bears football and derail BYU’s College Football Playoff hopes? Cam Stuart and Sydney Wicker break down the controversy rocking the Big 12 after BYU was snubbed from the College Football Playoff, dissecting the ripple effects of Rhoades’ CFP committee departure and raising tough questions about Utah AD Mark Harlan’s new role. The debate heats up over power shifts, conference respect, and whether fans’ conspiracy theories actually hold water.

Baylor’s offseason shakeup continues with defensive coordinator Matt Powledge’s exit to UNT, sparking speculation about Dave Aranda’s future and the search for new leadership on defense. On the hardwood, assistant coach Jared Nuness steps away for health reasons, and Cam Stuart and Sydney Wicker weigh how these moves impact Baylor basketball’s chemistry. Plus, new AD Doug McNamee’s top priorities—can he steady the ship and reinvigorate Baylor’s athletic direction as the transfer portal looms?

EXPERT: Joey McGuire STOLE From Baylor To Win Big 12, Dave Aranda's MISTAKES Created A MONSTER?

Texas Tech capture their first-ever Big 12 championship with help from familiar faces—Baylor’s own coaching talent. Can Joey McGuire lead the Red Raiders on a historic College Football Playoff run, and what does Baylor’s role in their rise say about the Bears’ current trajectory?

Cam Stuart unpacks Texas Tech’s unprecedented success, spotlighting the wave of former Baylor staff who built the Red Raiders into a top-five powerhouse. The show tackles Baylor’s controversial bowl game decline, the ripple effect of player and coach departures under Dave Aranda, and the introduction of new athletic director Doug McNamee. Key topics include the strategic rebuilding challenges at Baylor, the impact of staff loyalty shifts, and whether revenue-boosting moves—like alcohol sales—can help reset the Bears’ footing in the Big 12 landscape. Which program is truly poised for long-term success, and can Baylor reclaim its competitive edge?
