New Big 12 year one for football
Short Answer: Not great, Bob
Looking over ESPNs projections
First-round byes
No. 1 Oregon (Big Ten champ)
No. 2 Texas (SEC champ)
No. 3 Miami (ACC champ)
No. 4 Boise State (Mountain West champ)
First-round games
On campus, Dec. 20 and 21
No. 12 BYU (Big 12 champ) at No. 5 Ohio State
No. 11 Georgia at No. 6 Penn State
No. 10 Ole Miss at No. 7 Indiana
No. 9 Alabama at No. 8 Notre Dame
Going into the final stretch, only one Big 12 team projected in the 12 team bracket, basically whoever wins the Big 12 Championship game. BYU is just the current place saver.
What’s worse, you’re not even gonna be one of the 4 first round bye games. The Mountain West is higher ranked than you lol
And to compound it even more… there’s still a chance that the Big 12 doesn’t get in the CFP at all…
(And giving more and more ammunition for
the Big 10 and SEC to just leave and do their own thing for good)
