Ep 1496HOT TAKES: Why BYU Was LEFT OUT, Matt Campbell GONE to Penn State, Sam Leavitt to LSU | Big 12 Squad

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 BreakthroughThe 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 FalloutWhile 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 AnnouncementPerhaps 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.

Ep 1476BOOM: BYU Host CALLS OUT College Football Playoff Committee for CHEATING the Big 12 | Big 12 Squad

The College Football Playoff committee’s perceived lack of "love" for the Big 12 stems from a fundamental bias toward two key factors the conference historically lacked: undefeated champions and entrenched "blue blood" brands.During the four-team era, the Big 12’s round-robin scheduling and deep parity often resulted in conference champions carrying one or two losses. While this demonstrated the league's competitive depth, the committee often penalized this "cannibalization." Instead of rewarding a team that survived a gauntlet, the CFP favored the narrative simplicity and media pull of unbeaten teams from the SEC or Big Ten, even those with weaker non-conference schedules. This was exemplified in 2014 when the 11-1 co-champions were left out for a less-tested Ohio State.In the newly expanded 12-team playoff, the issue shifts from outright exclusion to seeding bias. While the Big 12 champion now receives an automatic bid, the historical lack of respect often translates into a lower ranking. A 10-2 Big 12 champion may find itself seeded fifth or sixth, forfeiting a crucial first-round bye, while a 10-2 team from another perceived "super-conference" is ranked fourth.This continued undervaluation is rooted in brand perception. With Texas and Oklahoma having departed, the Big 12 lacks the narrative heft and established national dominance of the traditional powers. Until the conference establishes a new era of singular, top-tier elite programs—or until the committee begins to genuinely reward high-quality, strength-of-record wins over simple win-loss totals—the feeling that the CFP does not "love" the Big 12 will persist.
